Today I learned that Michael Jordan, who once made gazillions of dollars as a player for the Chicago Bulls and the Washington Wizards (and earned just about every penny of it, along with the endorsements and fame), is leading the owners’ group in their fight to prevent players from getting a bigger share of the NBA’s revenues.
There’s an Alanis Morrissette song in here somewhere.

What this guy doesn’t understand is that Jordan didn’t make nearly as much money as the player do now. And if you’re the best player in the game/all time, you deserve to get the money.
Scrubs in todays game get payed more money than Jordan did except that 30mil/season. But even still, if you win rings… You should get that money.
Dur durdurd
