Whether it’s being spotted courtside during the NBA Playoffs or on TV in the newest Hanes underwear commercials, arguably the game’s best all-time player Michael Jordan remains a hot topic among basketball fans. In fact, TheHoopDoctors.com’s most recent story involving the GOAT, explaining how he is considering changing the Bobcats team name, was one of our most read articles this basketball season.
Surely MJ is still popular on other sites as well since I stumbled onto a hilarious video from the folks over at CollegeHumor.com, where they use a Michael Jordan phone as a prop that brings some unbridled optimism to the cast of their regular series Hardly Working. Watch as the main character buys a MJ themed phone, which looks like one of those cheesy free gifts for subscribing to Sports Illustrated, and takes it to work to help with the office moral. Problem is, he goes a little(Ok….a lot) over the top with enthusiasm, even though he is constantly being fed some pretty horrific news on the other end of his new phone. Not even getting news that his electricity is being turned off or that his girlfriend is breaking up with him could put a downer on getting the newest Michael Jordan phone.
Check out the video which has tons of references to former Bulls players like Jordan and Jud Buechler, and a phone that plays Jordan being introduced in the old Chicago Stadium in his heyday as a player.
