WTF? MJ gets the 9-11 flag??? - GoFuckYourself.com

Mogul · 04-14-2003, 09:04 PM

Tonight was the last game for over tired MJ.

Rumsfeld gave him a fucking flag.

What? MJ is a BASKETBALL player not a god damn national HERO or something. What next, a flag to Bonds for hitting some home runs? A flag to the guy at my local starbucks for making my coffee right for once?

"Rumsfeld, who received a loud ovation, presented Jordan with a flag that flew over the Pentagon on the one-year anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks. "

How about giving it to one of our POWs or a family who lost a loved one on 9-11 or even the Iraqi that walked miles each day to help free Jessica Lynch.

What do we do? Give it to a fucking basketball player. Great. You served the country well. Jesus man.

Am I wrong?

Can you name one person who's done more to inspire more people in this country, the youth in particular, in the past 20 years or so?

Sports/fitness-wise? One name does come to mind actually... Schwarzenegger. Jordan doesn't come close to Arnie.

MJ is one of the most recognizable people in the world. More welll known than the President.

Oh. What has he done to insipre people? Selling shoes does not count.

You could say Bill Gates has. He has given more money to charity than Jordan could in 20 life times. Also he has become the icon for going from nothing to something.

You could say Jesse Jackson has done more 'inspiring'. Sure, he does not have a clothes and shoe line....

In fact, you could say lots of people who have actually DONE something to insire kids to be more.

Making profitable commercials and products is nothing special.

But maybe I am wrong.

Also, the Flag was a symbol of 9-11 and should be given to someone deserving as such.

Oh, How about Magic Johnson? Do you have any idea how much he has done in the past years to help black communities? Alot more than Jordan has.

If your national flag, or country for that matter, actually stood for something, I'm sure you'd understand the importance.

Michael Jordan of the Washington Wizards plans to divide his 2001-2002 salary, approximately $1 million, among a number of relief charities. Jordan recently earmarked $100,000 for the Washington Sports and Entertainment Education Fund to benefit children who lost a parent or guardian in the Pentagon attack.

I think that deserves a Pentagon flag...

notion · 04-14-2003, 09:57 PM

You are making a big deal over a flag that really isn't that important. Maybe, just maybe, if the flag was flown on 9-11-01; not 9-11-02. I could give two shits about that flag, and I'm sure everyone else could give a shit too.. well, except you.

I am not going to argue the merits of giving him a flag because I can really see both sides.....

....BUT.....

remember that he agreed to donate his salary to charity NOT out of the goodness of his heart, but because it was a condition to being the first ever OWNER and PLAYER

RE: Jordan giving money "approximately $1 million"

ooooo a WHOLE million? I think Sally Jesse Rafeal gave more.

But who cares. I am just wondering why we hand out symbolic flags like candy to athletes. And we wonder why our country is all fucked up.

Giving one flag, to one and probably the second most recognizable athlete in history, is giving them out "like candy".

Nice distortion.
THAT is why this country is "fucked up", as you put it.

Oh for fucks sake, Michael Jordan, as an athlete, embodies the American spirit. The guy doesn't just show up to play, he comes to win every time he gets on the court.

Tiger Woods is the only other athlete I can think of who deserves the same sort of recognition.

And comparing MJ to Brother Bill is perfectly appropriate, they both managed to revolutionize their fields.

I am sure there were quite a few flags that made it up that flag pole that day; all of them earmarked for different constituents.

kmanrox · 04-14-2003, 11:58 PM

they are just trying to divert some of the hostilities we have in america to something fun, trying to show that rumsfeldt isnt the war monger some people think he is, to show that they are focused on things at home as well as abroad... let's face it, he's the greatest sports legend of the last 20 years or so and will be known as one of the best, if not the best sports icon in his sport of all time (as Tiger is destined to be in golf)....

that deserves nothing. the guy has more money than he'll ever need. 500k is pocket change for him

marty · 04-15-2003, 05:47 AM

I'm not from the US but I do have to say that there are about 20 million others who deserve that flag before MJ does.

Every single person that puts his/her life on the line for the protection of others are the front runners.

Fuck MJ. It's not like he sacraficed anything in his life for others. Everything he did was driven by money.

Shit - MJ is definately one of the main face's of Nike amongst other things, major force in bringing b-ball plenty of attention, and definately brings the spirit of pushing things as hard as you can even when people doubt you.

What's Arnie? The guy from Austria who did lots of steroids to win a body building competition, then did some movies where they didn't even use his voice before reaching some hollywood stardom. Upon reaching major fame he whored his name out to the Planet Hollywood scam......

When MJ came back into Basketball this last time, they televised his first game globally.....!
