I don't know any Jordan Zombies by your definition, but I know a helluva lot of people who'd like to know about him and are thus allowing the stories to take over the real news. Casual observers who don't even follow basketball but want to know about Jordan. That goes back to that first point I made about his universality and place in Americana that appeared to offend you. But you're allowed to keep ignoring it if you choose and call the whole world Jordan Zombies for not seeing it your way, if it'll help you and bsams sleep at night.

People who actually went out and make attempts to better the world and devote a good part of their life to it. Instead of folks he can throw a ball DAMN GOOD. Or who can play the prez on TV?!?!?! Sorry my good man THAT is absurd!
What's absurd is you drawing messages out of A-man's posts that weren't even remotely there.
