I was a kid in grade school at the time and it was the hypest poo poo on the loving planet for us, we made a bunch of baseball cutouts and taped them up all around the room throughout the whole race; it was awesome edit: I don't think I will ever have a period of sports I enjoyed more than that. Prime Brett Favre and back-to-back Super Bowl runs, the Jordan Bulls, the dominant Red Wings, and the goddamn Attitude Era in the WWF with Stone Cold Steve Austin, that was a charmed life I was leading as a kid who loved all of those things second edit: I forgot some VERY good Wolverines football teams too, gently caress, I used up 90% of my sports fan luck before I was a teenager surf rock fucked around with this message at 04:20 on May 18, 2020 |

Could use another episode where Jordan just tells stories about real or imagined slights that caused him to absolutely crush some team the next game.

https://twitter.com/NifMuhammad/status/1262233981300486144?s=20 Loved Bob Costas saying "Rodman's tired freakshow continues off the court." He's always been so histrionic. Sad we did not get 21 feet of poo poo or any mention of Wizards Jordan. If they really wanted to say gently caress you to Krause they should've mentioned him trading Elton Brand to build a team around two 18-year-old big men.

I know there are so many other more obvious criticisms of the documentary but the single clip of them talking to his kids just rubbed it in that the directors really didn't give a poo poo about plowing new ground. Like how do you spend half the time discussing how important the father-son relationship was to MJ (to a point where he had a security guard step in after his dad died) and not ask the kids about their own relationship with their sociopath father? It's just small stuff like this that sort of annoyed me because I actually think there is enough cool content for 10 hours but not if you're planning on spending half of it interviewing 90s reporters about Jordan's competitiveness and drive.

Torn between whether the funniest interview they got was bringing in his kids for in the very last episode just to say "Utah fans are rude" or going through the trouble of booking Justin Timberlake just to be part of an extended Nike ad for like five seconds Like maybe she didn't want to do it and I'm sure Jordan would have nixed it if she had but Juanita was married to him forever and by all accounts was extremely involved in managing his career and I'm not sure they even said her name?

There are a lot of non-Lions football fans in the Detroit area, because the Lions are the Lions. Lots of Packers fans because of relatives in the U.P. or whatever.

The MJ hagiography aspects of the doc just kinda come to the fore in the last two episodes. I thought it kinda needed Kerr's story to be earlier, as that's genuinely good stuff, but I imagine Hehir thought it would be boring to have everyone's origin story in the first half.

Like with Gus in the same episode, he waits to introduce a lot of people until they're relevant to the narrative. It makes sense on some level but it's also just bad storytelling. Hey here's this guy who meant a lot to Jordan, he had cancer, Jordan gave him a game ball. Moving on

It's funny, the stuff with MJ's bodyguards is the best stuff in the documentary, so much of the 10 hours are wasted with "look how good MJ is at basketball"

Takes out some raw chicken juice to top it with after cooking? for a serious answer that's not just shoving stuff up your butt (not that there's anything wrong with that, it's 2020 we all deserve buttplay), visine is supposedly odorless and tasteless, and in theory you could also dissolve laxative into the pizza sauce pretty easily both of which are crazy dangerous; you could put someone in the hospital with that stuff (i don't know why people insist on humoring michael jordan with his bullshit tainted pizza, either he had fluke food poisoning or he was hungover and either one is fine and adds to his legend perfectly well)

I like how five dudes showing up is somehow evidence that it was poisoned and not a completely expected reaction to the most famous person on the loving planet ordering a pizza from your store.
