James Harden is the reigning MVP... and this year his numbers shot way up again. Dominated in PPG... 8 ppg more than anyone else ... with a ton of assists.

No tats. Silly beard. Christian, although probably not orthodox.

Oh, and for the record: LeBron James SUCKS!!!

As a human being, OK. As a pro hoops player, he is in the top 2-4.

Jim Brown was a piece of crap human being when he played for the Cleveland Browns, but he was the best all time running back, ever, in the NFL.

For the record, I am not a pro hoops fan nor was I ever a Brown's fan {being from Steel Town, they would throw me into the rolling mill}.

I went to East Carolina University in Greenville, NC. Michael always had a charity golf tournament there every year. I knew a few people who worked at the Hilton Hotel he stayed at. Let’s just say he was not exactly faithful to his wife............

My sister in law went to school with him. Her husband, my brother in law was at a court playing basketball and Jordan showed up to play and my brother in law decided not to go up against Jordan. Jordan’s father worked for my father in law and he fired him.

I went to the same baseball camp as Jordan. Mickey Owens in Miller, MO. Charlie Sheen went there too.

So Jordan had some integrity. That’s a good thing. He also had probably the most opportunities to endorse stuff of any athlete, so he could afford to be picky.
