There are some people you see and hope they are as nice as they are famous. One of such people to me has been Michael Jordan. He has at different times been a source of discussion between my daughter and my self. She has been for a long time NOT a Jordan fan. In fact twenty plus years ago she wrote an article call “Be Like Mike? Hell No! It was published in an Ohio Black paper and has since been misplaced. At the time I could not understand her dislike for MJ. My daughter is a self proclaimed “old soul” and it often gives her an insight into people others don’t have.
 
Well I have to say that she was right on when she stated that MJ was not a nice person. If further proof was needed, his appearance at the Basketball Hall of Fame dinner in his honor left nothing to the imagination. To say this great player was less than gracious would be putting it mildly. He was bitter, narrow minded, and vindictive toward what he presumed were small hurts and slights he received at the hands of others as far back as his high school basketball coach. You would think with all his fame and money he would be a gracious person and let bygones be bygones. Heck no!
 
Jordan was a pitiful, mean person. So do I want to “be like Mike?” Hell NO!!
