A little gold for the weekend. In 1983 Michael Jordan was a 20-year old college student. Like many of us, his understanding of the world was being shaped and reshaped during college. This is before Air Jordan. This is before it was cool to have his shoes. Before baggy shorts and gold chains. When these pictures were taken, his legacy had yet to be created. The Shot had yet to happen. The MVP’s, the rings, the moments, all had yet to be. They did not exist yet! But now, in retrospect these images hold so much more meaning. We still haven’t even really gotten started with Mike. I mean we got this and this, but there’s so much more. So let’s thank Jesse for these, and enjoy our Saturday.
