https://twitter.com/readjack/status/1251856105858269191 Good article about how Reinsdorf is the most intriguing figure in this whole saga for anyone who's already aware of the situation. The five-minute clip included him saying "Yeah, literally everyone told me not to hire this shithead baseball scout as general manager...but I dunno, I liked him" and it was baffling to me, so hopefully they get into that a good amount

The main effect this documentary is having on me is that I am getting incredibly mad about how the Bulls got gifted the greatest and most famous basketball player of all time, begrudgingly tolerated him dragging them to success, then finally rid themselves of him & spent the next two decades mismanaging the team into irrelevance Cant wait to spend 8 more hours stoking this rage

MourningView posted:The absolute shittiest part of the doc is that Reinsdorf is on there playing the reasonable benevolent owner while letting a dead guy take all the bullets for him being a tight rear end. This is not an issue for me because my brain immediately takes anything Jerry Reinsdorf says and paints it in the most negative light possible. It helps that within the first five minutes of the doc, you have him dithering about whether or not he should break up a team that just won its fifth title in seven years. I imagine they've gotta include the moment of him telling Jordan he'll regret giving him those $30+ million deals, too

This segment started out like Kukoc + Kerr: This dude was a giant piece of poo poo to us in practice MJ in practice: You're going to have to try hard to win! But then as soon as they got to him calling Scott Burrell a ho things got better
