Relive Michael Jordan’s Birmingham Baron days

March 19th, 2008 | Posted by PostmanR

Michael Jordan is known as the greatest athlete EVAR, but if you think of his career, it was kind of effed. He went to play baseball after his father was shot and killed, came back to basketball, won some championships, left, gambled and played some golf, smoked some cigars, then came back again for the Wizards. (I think he’s still on the Wizards bench somewhere.)

So via Sports By Brooks, we can now celebrate Jordan’s baseball days, where he had feigned visions of suiting up for the White Sox. (Jordan would have never fit in with the Cubs mantra.)

The dapper home and away models will retail for $105 each on March 29th, the same date as the Civil Rights Game between the White Sox and the Mets. A T-shirt with his baseball number will also drop on the same date. No explanation has been provided why there is no alternate home shoe, green shoe, or camouflage shoe yet.

For the record, if I could pull off one of those hats, I’d rock ‘em day and night. Sadly, I cannot.
