Do All MJ's Make Mistakes?


As many of us know, Michael Jordan is going to be inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, MA on September 11th. However, Michael Jordan has surprised everyone and chose David Thompson to open the hall's doors for his display. David Thompson was a NBA player who came from the college North Carolina State and was said to be one of the most inspirational players for Michael Jordan according to his autobiography.

Michael, Michael, Michael...

Let me guess, Dean Smith? Phil Jackson? One of your teamates? Rival, Charles Barkley? Nope, David Thompson. Wow, I can't believe that Michael Jordan has chosen David Thompson to induct him, what is he thinking? I mean sure you claimed him to be your idol when you were growing up, but I didn't think he was that important.

I can only imagine what Phil Jackson is thinking. I mean the guy lead him to the 6 NBA championship rings he has. You would figure that Phil Jackson maybe had SOMETHING to do with that. I tell you what, if I was Phil Jackson I would send him a text saying "Way to make me look bad". Like I said, I would understand if Dean Smith was chosen and so wouldn't Phil Jackson.

All in all though, who am I to say is important to Michael Jordan? I'm sure Jordan thought about this decision thoroughly and decided without David Thompson he wouldn't be the legend he is now. Actually, what if he didn't think this through? What if he knew within a few minutes who he was going to choose?! Okay, i'm back to being pissed off again...

Targets by Lisa Rae Winant

A nice and calm fall day lies ahead in New Hampshire as the old, cranky and non-caring woman drags another cigarette. Approaching her is a young energetic boy in a black suit who looks to be a magician holding a puppet rabbit in one hand while a magic wand in another.

"Hello ma'am, may I show you a magic trick? I'm more than positive you will enjoy it!"

The old lady gives him a glance, takes another drag of her butt and turns the other way.

The boy quickly gets in front of her again. "Ma'am, please give me a chance! I have been designing a trick that will change the revolution of magic".

The old lady finishes her drag and blows the smoke into the face of the magician with no emotion.

"Ma'am, I beg you for your patience. I just need to borrow this hat-" The boy reaches for the lady's hat without permission and has his hand quickly smacked down. She looks at the boy flat-faced and still doesn't say a word. The child is shocked by the strength the lady has for her age.

The old lady suddenly takes off her glasses and tucks them in the v-neck of her collared shirt. She grabs the child's puppet rabbit, "Face over there!" the lady murmurs as she points in the other direction.

The boy turns around as the old lady takes the last drag of her cigarette. Before exhaling she takes off her hat, stuffs the rabbit inside and exhales into the hat before putting it back upon her head. "Turn around" She says.

The boy turns around noticing she does not have the rabbit in her hand. "Where's my rabbit?"

The old lady takes off her hat with smoke coming out and pulls the rabbit from inside. "Cool magic trick ya little shit."
