Watching the 2nd episode now and getting mad about Scottie's lovely contract. My memory of him was being awesome but I figured his stats weren't as great as my memory of him, then checked and from 90-98 he was 8th in ws/48 and 7th in WS. God drat he ruled

there was a brooks brothers (i think?) ad painted on the side of a building on the Kennedy Expressway that had Rodman on it in black and white except they used to color his hair more or less keeping up with his current styles and it used to literally cause traffic jams.

please don't quote this post to throw in some own on the city of chicago, we didn't have smart phones yet


ok this is the first time i've seen this ad in 25 years, lmao at that goofy ryne sandberg caricature.

this rules almost as much as the toews pigface w/ stanley cup before they won the first title

Most of these guys are capitalist to their bones, which is the reason they're rich in the first place. It's not about winning, it's about making as much money as possible, and you can sometimes make more money with a middle of the road team than a championship one.

hell, the owner who shared the same stadium (bill wirtz, blackhawks) said in the mid 90s "Don't you be thinking about winning any Stanley Cups. They're too expensive"

jesus christ poor kukoc, it's kind of amazing he has a 'no hard feelings' attitude (probably because his day to day life was just brutal for years)

jordan vowing to destroy the evil mastermind who was going to make him wear a Reebok sweat suit was the funniest thing in the documentary other than michael jordan's repeated denials of his gambling problem.

i wonder how many people watching this dont know that he's a psychotic maniac whose sole purpose is finding people who slighted him and destroying them and that's literally why he was so good

All I remember from the 96 series is rodman making Frank brikowski the angriest man in the world

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

How the gently caress do you get to root for the red wings, packers and bulls

I've heard of ridiculous 2 city rooters but never 3 come on. Everyone at my school by the state line was a packers/bulls fan (odd, never the bucks...weird...) but you take the cake

Jerry Krause was a very good scout, but a tremendously petty man and a yuge dickhead

Him and MJ were made for each other


Considering Phil managed to get Rodman of all people to generally focus up, it says something that Phil didnt care for Kobe at all

I legit think Phil is an incredible coach solely by virtue of being able to manage egos and keep people focused. It sounds simple but no one else could have handled Kobe/shaq , Jordan or rodman
