    Imagine his wife like, "honey are you hungry"
    "I'm not saying in PARTICULAR that I'm less than SATIATED and am in no way implying a theoretical, isolated incident of FAMINE. I would however be a fool to not oblige you in a mutual offer of nourishment on a plate in front of me if it were to land there-"

      My comment literally had nothing to do with black people dude. So many people have done interviews outside of VladTV and straight got themselves in trouble. This had absolutely nothing to do with black people at all. It is you who is trying to perpetuate the stereotype by trying spin what I wrote to fit your narrative. GTFOH with your BS dude.

All these clowns saying Vlad is working with cops are hust as dumb. He's asking the questions people want to know about. Not he's fault all these fools can't handle their business without snitching on themselves. Michael can give you most of the details you want to know about, but not get his hands dirty while doing it. True gentleman gangster

      It’s also what you would say if you really didn’t know but were trying to pretend as though you did.
      There are 2 thugs in prison for this murder. They certainly aren’t mobsters. Maybe he has no answers because he has no answers.
      If he really knew, would he be giving the interview in the first place? If a cop brought me in to ask about a murder, I could say the same stuff. I know that I have no information and can’t be caught:
      “Well, officer, I’m not sure.”
      “It may have happened that way.”
      “I heard that it may have been my ex girlfriends cousins boyfriends brother who may have done it.”
      This is what you say when you don’t really know but you’re trying to sell a book/movie.

    I lived in Chicago for 25 years, including the whole time when Jordan was playing. Talked to a few people who knew him from the golf course and the card table. They told me several things about Jordan, separately and unsolicited. First, Jordan loves to gamble and is not as good as he thinks he is. Therefore, the card sharks and country club golf hustlers love playing with Michael. Also, Jordan rarely just pays off his debts. It's always "let's play again, double or nothing"...OR..."I'll get the next one"...OR..."let's go play cards now" but never just a payout. When you hear enough of these stories, from enough non story telling types, eventually you start to believe them.

      In a way it’s better that he did it this way, rather than what many players in sports do which is lose games and manipulating scores to make money. Jordan bets on himself and I don’t even think he’d be capable of losing intentionally (though I’m sure at a certain point I suppose everyone is, it just is a very characteristically Jordan thing to do because of his competitive nature).

I was a kid at that time and the news didn’t go into it as far as we now have the internet to do so.. I mean people were paying for cd’s to come in the mail for aol time so no one was digging into to Jordan.. and I remember the pause in his career and I thought he was so talented that he had options…… after I sold cocaine for so long after that I began to realize the dark rooms many with businesses and who hold offices actually live in….. crazy how the world opens up when the poisons are out!!

    Everyone old enough to remember his dad's murder, speculated this. People who worked the casinos in Illinois and Indiana knew Mike was serious about his gambling. Casino employees I personally know said he would rent out an entire floor of the casino just for himself. The same people that let you shut down an entire level of a casino, can harm you over money owed to them. Personally, I don't believe his fathers murder had to do with debt, he had plenty of money. I believe the murder had to do with Jordan and point shaving, he either did something incorrectly, or didn't fulfill an obligation. He left the game to get his head right after the killing.

      Could be, I've heard he regularly didn't pay out on losses, and gambled so much he couldn't keep track of whom he owed money to.. so he from time to time punked people he legit owed money to.. could be he thought he was getting fleeced, again speculation..
      Could be he owed some people with some real heat behind them.. doubt it was the mob, I don't think they would mess with something this high profile.. some middle level up and coming gangster wanting to make a name for himself is most likely in my opinion..
      An amazing athlete, but unfortunately not the role model he was portrayed it.. he's bent a lot of people in the wrong direction.. mind you a life intense public limelight and people constantly begging you for autographs expecting a certain behavior can affect a person..

I was around 16 at the time. As an adult, it doesnt seem that random at all. Its almost like looking back at music artists and saying, "how could I not see he was gay?".

      Yeah its kind of like with doping/PED issues in sports. Superstars are good for the sport, good for business. So when top athletes are doping, the league will often turn the other way, hide negative test results from the public, or just refuse to test their star athletes. Why? Because the super stars generate money, and the league has spent years investing in them and making them the face and brand of the league. It would go against their own interests to destroy that image.

Now we're finding out his dad was possibly murdered because Gambling debts. The question is who had enough power to take out the best basketball player ever's Dad over money. Sure a few guys were charged with the crime, but there is a stronger hand behind the whole situation.

    When he played in high stakes poker games with pro (poker) players, the word was always to keep things cash only with him (because you'd never get a debt that he owed you).

If you believe Franzese,how did the 2 dudes who killed him know that MJ's dad was going to pull over to take a nap in his car? Also,these 2 dudes had been hanging out at this seedy hotel,saw a red Lexus parked off the road by the hotel, and was just going to rob him and take his car. How did the mob make that happen?
