Lots of people in America are REALLY DUMB. Many are dumb enough to think climate change isn’t real (looking at you Senator James Inhofe, Chairman of the Environmental committee). A lot of other people are dumb to think evolution isn’t real and the Earth is only 6,000 years old (looking at you L.A. Clippers Power Forward and Creationist Blake Griffin)
Then you have a lot of Americans who believe Michael Jordan would beat Lebron James in a game of one-on-one RIGHT NOW! Not when both were in their prime, but right now.
Yes, today, the 52-year-old Michael Jordan, who hasn’t played professional basketball in 12 years could somehow beat 30-year-old Lebron James. More than a third of American NBA fans, 34% believe this. Here’s more on this from @ The Buzzer:
It’s sad that this is even a story because the Michael Jordan vs. Lebron James argument is a terribly trite and incredibly meatheaded story idea to begin with. It’s a debate being held by the two stupidest people in a very low rent sports bar. Now excuse me, I need to go sniff glue, bang my head against a brick wall, watch Fox Business Channel, all of these activities have the same effect.
Not sure if all three of these practices combined could dumb me down enough to join the 34%ers in the Michael Jordan over Lebron James crowd though.
