The Untold Story of Michael Jordan and Jeremy Roenick
This past week quite the iconic story between NBA legend Michael Jordan and former NHL player Jeremy Roenick popped up on social media, the story was told years ago but always makes for a good laugh, and a inside on athletes thinking from back in the day, check it out below:
»We played a round of golf, I beat him (Michael Jordan) for a couple thousand and got ready to leave. Now, the Bulls are playing Cleveland that night. I'm thinking he's leaving, it's 10 o'clock. He goes 'No, let's play again.'
So we fill up a bag of ice and Coors Light and walk again. We roll around another 18 and I take him for another couple of thousand dollars. Now we've been drinking all afternoon and he's going from the course to the stadium, to play a game. ''
''I'm messing around. I'm like, »I'm gonna call my books. All the money you just lost to me, I'm putting on Cleveland.'
He goes, 'I'll tell you what. I'll bet you that we'll win by 20 points and I have more than 40.''
''I'm like, 'Done.'
Son of a gun goes out and scores 52 and they win by 26 points or something.»
Jeremy Roenick.''
