No, who is his father? fb-?

FTFY

If I had the power to detain someone, I think "Do you know who my dad is?" would make me more likely to use it, not less.

So if I arrest you, I might get to meet Michael Jordan? Cool.

"Do you know who my father is?"

Usually a legitimate question.

you mean that sub standard minor league baseball guy? STOP RESISTING!

Celebrity-kid entitlement plus being drunk plus being black after dark in Nebraska. Saying "I'm Michael Jordan's kid" is probably what kept him from getting shot.

Rich people problems.

Where did it say he played that card?

Nowhere in that link does it state that he asked, "Do you know who my father is?"

I have to stick up for Jordan's baseball career. Yes, he wasn't very good, but he was probably the best 31-year-old in AA ball that year. And he did it all having had no practice whatsoever in baseball since high school. The thing about baseball is that it requires almost no athleticism (in the way that running up and down a basketball court for 48 minutes does) but it does require certain incredibly refined muscle twitches and reflex reactions. It takes most mediocre AA players all of their young lives to learn how to hit .202. Jordan picked it up during spring training at an age when most major leaguers are getting too creaky to play!

I'm not saying he had major league talent. Or, I'm not saying he had major league talent left in him at 31. If he'd played in college, he might have been average, who knows. But that's the best part. He quit the thing he was the best in the world at and took up something that was a challenge. Did he fail? Absolutely! Did he try and try again until he succeeded at that impossible task? No, that'd be stupid! These are both valuable life lessons.

Farking lying ass subby.

Oooooh, harsh. But yes, invoking your celebrity relative has different effects on cops vs. people trying to mug you.

Blah blah blah, thinking of MJ made me remember an episode of superbikes. Here's MJ's custom Ducati. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_ktktwmC8g

Anyone else see this?

Doesn't work if you're black. Just ask Trayvon.

Wow. Just pulled that right out of your ass, huh?

The guy gets his ass kissed enough without making shiat up about the sport he truly sucked at.

This text is now purple: Doesn't work if you're black. Just ask Trayvon.

...Trayvonwin's law?

/Meh, can't otherwise be bothered.

Ok, I think the question that no one wants to confront is this: Why is 4/5 of the article repeated in the caption of the picture?

semiotix: I have to stick up for Jordan's baseball career... (other good thoughts)

Agreed, although I always looked at it a little more minimally: The dude had worked his butt off, dominated his chosen sport and (imho) left it in better condition than he found it, and made several metric craploads of money. Then he wanted to take time to pursue a different interest. For some dudes, that means buying a ranch. Some make a rap album. Others plumb the depths and breadths of women the world has to offer. He wanted to play baseball. More power to him. Rock on, rich guy that kicked arse, rock on.

This text is now purple: Doesn't work if you're black. Just ask Trayvon.

Oh, did he do the "do you know who my dad is?" thing? Didn't know that.

bassmonkeee: Nowhere in that link does it state that he asked, "Do you know who my father is?"

Yeah, not even in the picture caption - where they repeated the ENTIRE story.

How about disputing the individual comments rather than just saying NUH UH YOURES STUPIDS HEAD?

There are plenty of kids who are drafted and never have a season that good in AA.

No, that was misquoted. What he said was, "If I had a son, he'd look like treesloth."

/dad?

Whoa. Haven't seen that reference in years. That shiat is old school.

Perhaps you'd like me to spend a few hours cross-referencing statistics of all 31 year olds in the minor leagues between 1994-1996? No, my friend, you're the one who needs the citation when you make a claim like that.

Did I do that?

That's (not) racist!

MJ: "Do you know who my father is?"
Cop: "I'm not Maury Porvich"

MJ: "Do you know who my father is?"
Cop: "Black"

MJ: "Do you know who my father is?"
Cop: " Sorry, I don't swing that way."

Okay, that's all I have for now.

doubled99: Wow. Just pulled that right out of your ass, huh?

No, I consulted the birth certificates for all minor league baseball players active that year.

Relax, guy. My point is that AA ball is made up mostly of guys within spitting distance of 20. If you or a loved one was batting .203 in AA as a 31-year-old that year, I sincerely apologize.

As for kissing his ass, I said he wasn't very good. (Allow me to ass-kiss you for your reading comprehension.) I just like that he did it, and somehow managed not to go 0-for-career with a .450 fielding average, which is what you'd expect.

isn't Michael Jordan a shoe salesman? or summat like that.

treesloth Rock on, rich guy that kicked arse

You wanna bet? Supposedly Scottie Pippen is the Most Despised Former Bull among people who meet him. I'd heard Jordan despises Kobe Bryant, I suspect because Kobe's out to break every record that MJ ever set, just like MJ did to Bird & Magic

Sorry, apparently this is some sort of inside joke, and I'm not in on it. Can you explain?
