The man who inspired Michael Jordan

For those of you who don’t know, Leroy Smith is the man who beat out Michael Jordan for the last spot on their varsity team. Some would say he’s been the biggest influence on Michael Jordan’s life, inspiring him to become the greatest basketball player in the world.

Most men would feel they’ve lived a full life after accomplishing so much, but not Leroy. No, now he is inspiring you with his best selling motivational/instructional DVD series, Get Your Basketball On.

You would think "surely a man who has done so much for Michael Jordan and so much for the sport of basketball must be in the Basketball Hall of Fame," but you would be sadly mistaken.
But fear not, for you can help Mr. Smith claim his rightful place in the Hall of Fame by signing his petition at getyourbasketballon.com, and learn more about his story.
Help get Leroy into the Hall of Fame, and remember his 3 pillars of success; Motivize, pulverize, and realize!

    I am curious as to what the hell is going on with this.

    Man, I know a guy named Nike, but I'm not exactly sure I'd trust that guy.

    I don't think that was even his real name.

    I thought this thread was about The man who inspired Michael Jackson and was really confused as to why it was important that somebody took his spot on the varsity basketball team.

    Dave refuses to do it because Comedy Central did the Lost Episodes thing

    He told them not to

    And they did

    So he told them to fuck themselves
