Again, Franta, I say,
What about Magic?
Ali?
Robinson?
Or even Hank Aaron?
Jesse Owens?
All of these athletes shaped a little part of American (and in Ali and Owen's case, international) culture. To deny that is stupid. Whether you like it or not, sports has SOME (if only a little) part in the way culture and society is developed.

Straying a bit from the topic of Jordan , I'll take that as admission your argument in his favor is null and void.

Forgot about Jim Thorpe, Martina Navortorola (?), and Billy Jean King.
Oh and Jackie Joyner Kersey, Bill Russell, Arthur Ashe, Pele, and the two guys who gave the "black power" fist at the '68(?) Olympics. Tell me none of those people had a hand in shaping the way society thinks.

You take into account all of those people and suddenly it doesn't seem so ridiculous that Jordan gets a headline story for one freakin day.

Let it be known that La Machine is addressing only Franta at this time and all other "interferences" will be ignored as the self-righteous one liners they are until some real input is given by said "interference".
So speaks Don Corleone.

Let it be known that Don Corleone can talk as much as he wants about Chode-Men at any time, he chooses not to talk to them is all. But Don Corleone won't bother mentioning that because a child would know this.

Ut oh, you're going against the family here! Franta said way back on page 1 that I ain't an idiot. Does this mean that Franta, too, is a media zombie, or perhaps a zombie of a third and as yet undiscussed sort?
Furthermore, why have you misspelled britney's name in this ID, and why are you demanding that she eat your shorts rather than claiming she's already done the deed?
The game's afoot!

Yeah. But it seemed kinda unlikely that someone named britanyspearseatmyshorts just happened to continue an argument on behalf of britneyspearsatemyshorts. Plus you've told me before that it's you.
And you should've called me Sherlock Holmes, not Einstein.

It's a good thing Jordan retired when he did from the Bulls or he would've not supported Dennis to another row of championships.
I can just picture Phil yelling at MJ during scrimmage;
"Hey! That's enough Michael! Leave Dennis alone! Alright apologize. I said apologize! You have an attitude problem mister. That's it. We're calling his mom. Send him home early, and send Dennis to the nurse's office."

Oh I thought you were talking about one specific article.
I understand it gets crazy cause the media's like "he's retiring, now he's back. He's retiring. Now he's back." But I still say the guy's celebrity status is enough that if I have to see Britney Spears (talentless slut) all over the place, I should be able to see MJ too.

Nope, it's also your motto, Franta and I have clearly won this debate, yet you continue to make a fool of yourself in front of the rest of the board, everyone is PM'ing us talking about the kid who doesn't know he's beaten. At least you livened up the PM Box ......

Like I should believe a yammy who's up at five in the morning posting corny-ass comebacks.
And secondly, I'm having a conversation, not a battle. You wanna try to battle me, in order to fulfill some wet-dream of yours to be Eminem or something, then you go right ahead and call it out in black and white you wanna battle me.
:lol:
You make me laugh little chode-monkey-man. Dance for me. Come on do a little monkey dance for me.
