This A$$hole is nothing but PUMPING UP his own accomplishments through the years. I almost feel bad for him, he is really pathetic. David Robinson was classy when he was up there but this D*Ckhead is just saying all the wrong things.
Arrogant Milk Dud LOL |

The quality of humility seems to be in very short supply in our society. It doesn't surprise me that Jordan behaved this way.

I'm not saying he should be humiliated, I'm saying he should be humble. I haven't seen his comments, but if they are as LifeAdjuster said, they amount to bragging. I have always gone by the old saying "a good deed is sufficient unto itself", i.e. "you don't have to remind everyone how good something you did was. Let them decide that for themselves and continue doing what you do." If you let your deeds go to your head, you'll stop trying as hard to do better. And no matter how "great" someone is, they can ALWAYS be better. Plus, such an approach makes people less inclined to resent you. |

Yeah. Also, you can't compare a center and a shooting guard. David Robinson was labeled as soft throughout his career until Mario Ellie fired him up because he wasn't firing his team up to go to the next level. |

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who was sickened and shocked by Jordan's speech. Everyone else who spoke was so elequant, and humble, and I was really looking forward to his speech. While the others spent there time thanking those who got them to where they were, all Jordan did was brag about his accomplishments, and tell stories that made himself look good. I've always believed in humbleness, and actually detest cocky people. They're about as useful to me as **** on the bottom of my shoe. Many people say, well with what Jordan achieved, he earned the right to be cocky, but I see it differentely. I feel that the more that you achieve, the more humble you should be. Atleast David Robinson knew that it was God who had the biggest part in making him who he was. Robinson was all class, and I wish Jordan would have taken a lesson from him. I'll always have great respect for Jordan's achievements on the basketball court, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't lose a little respect for him over his speech.

Are people not allowed to bask in the glory of what they accomplished throughout their career or credit themselves? |
