Show will take place on Tuesday, January 31st. Just wanted to make sure we had a thread around beforehand to discuss it.

Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful, but now I'm on my way

FF's got a gift for numbers like the dude from the movie pi... and we all know how that turned out for him, eh? =P

Dan seriously just suggested that memories of Jordan playing are long since faded and that he's more known as a shoe salesman than as a player at this point.

well he's right. you gotta be 40 to remember him in his heyday.

That's trivially true but the notion that people don't think about or recall Jordan as a player any longer is nonsense. Career highlights of him on Youtube have many millions more views than active or more recently active players, even stars like Kobe. His career still casts a huge shadow over the entire league and probably will for a very long time given how protected his image was compared to anyone else.

I'm 34 and remember him quite clearly.

No.

Can you tell me where he's gone?
I thought I saw him walkin' up to The Hill
With Elon, Tulsi, and Don

It's true for his sjw fan base at least

Of course when Goff is talking about how often athletes pushing respectability politics like Barkley are given platforms over people with actual insight, the first name that comes to Dan's mind is Jamelle Bouie

Too much NBA talk. Stop talking NBA. Why are you talking to everyone about the NBA?

Dan likes to be an iconoclast when it comes to Michael Jordan. Jordan has been retired for 19 years (I'm not counting his playing days from 2001-2003) and fans in their early 20s don't have any recollection of seeing him play live. I'm always shocked when I hear a producer (usually on AM1000 or a national show) chime in and say they don't remember seeing Jordan play and think "How young is this guy?" and then I think about long it's been since he retired and it does make sense.

However, they know he's a legend and as Zeph said have seen highlights on YouTube. I think it's going to be a quite a while before anyone says "That guy in the Hanes commercials used to play basketball?"

As long as kids like mine and his friends keep buying the shoes they know what MJ was all about.

These guys are making this Lebron-Barkley spat sound bigger than it really is. It seemed to me Lebron wasn't making some broader point about Barkley's terrible politics and the implications of his buffoonery (though he'd be quite correct to do so) but instead simply clapping back with personal insults after being shit on by him for ages.

I saw Arnold Palmer play golf but to say I have an educated view on what Arnold Palmer meant to the game of golf would be absurd.

If you saw Jordan play in the 90-93 years, arguably his peak, and you were older than 12 at the time, you are at least 38 years old now.

I'd expect they don't like Barkley because he routinely criticizes the black community that Lil Danny wishes he grew up in.

Do you have no memories of when you were 12?

I knew who Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlin were when I was a kid and had read about their battles. I knew Wilt was a basketball player when he was in Conan the Destroyer

I have vague memories of being 12. I thought Harold Baines was the best Sox ever.

Well he does have that pic of him being a Sox fan and wearing it cock eyed.

That and Barkley is on 1000 and someone is on 670

A gambling sight that's going to use analytics What's he lived under a mushroom....I take that back years ago he asked how people celebrate Easter. When he went to school they took turns stealing his lunch money

Is it stealing if he turned it over voluntarily?

That and these two turds can't comprehend that Barkley is speaking how he feels, there is no ulterior motive.
