This man is an absolute LEGEND.🙌🏽
Deloris Jordan should go down in history along with her son for being the game changers in how Sports contracts are negotiated to include some type of profits for their endorsement.
Damn! he signed Kobe too. Let's get a Kobe movie.
I know right
Please and thank you.
Jordan & Kobe! Damn! Sonny may I have your autograph!
Fabulous. Loved this interview with Sonny. Loved AIR as well.
Im so glad he’s involved in the marketing of the movie
Glad he mentioned the famous fabulous 5. No one else does
I could listen to this man all day
What a interview. Legend in the life story of Nike, Michael Jordan along with Deloris Jordan
Sonny is very interesting to listen to, he does have the gift and it shines through his stories.
Sonny the greatest scout ever,for his assessment of Jordan. Got damn
It was nothing like the Hoyas,in the 80’s. I’m from dc,I know I will NEVER get that feeling again.
I immediately think the fabulous 5 when I hear the name, Michael Jordan. The NIKE store in Chicago was so huge,, I always remember this huge cut out of Michael Jordan hanging from the celing, through the middle of the store to the lower level. It sticks with you for years after going there and I couldn't say what the rest of the store looked like. It was just that impressive. Gotta love Chicago, what a town.
The mark of a good movie, to me anyway, advertises a running time of close to two hours, but it doesn't feel like it lasted two hours. That's what "Air" is to me.
As far as I am concerned, the fab five started the whole black socks with black shoe thing. Of course I grew up in Albuquerque but I still rock that style today.
I watched the movie at home and wanted to Clapp. I can't imagine how it was in the theater 😂
Great interview
Great interview great film
Michael jordan is ALL TIME ❤
Jordan is 5th. Wilt is the Goat. Kareem second. Lebron 3rd. Bill Russell and Magic.
Sonny said it. MJ is the Goat 🐐 of Marketing
@@lukephillips770 and Luke thinks his “opinions” are gospel
Best movie of the year
MJ is the Goat, Kobe is right behind him and LeBald can only dream of having their drives and talent
💜💜💜💜
Michael changed the culture!!!!!!!
Fresno!
I had Black Nike's in the 80's because of the Penn State football team.
He has A GIFT🎁 legend
Sonny saw talent at an "early" level.
There is zero reason for Hollywood to change this story so much. I’m not kidding 90% of this movie is BS. Rob Strasser was a huge part. There are so many horrible changes. Movie was super boring. Could have been exciting.
He can tell potential.
Without watching them play😀
Yeah, that's why he tried to convince Mychel Thompson to have his son, Clay, take the scholarship to Notre Dame rather than play for Wash State in the PAC 10.
He flat out told Mychel that Clay had no chance in the NBA and Notre Dame would be a better educational choice over Washington State.
🤣😂
Oops!
Yeah, Sonny's a real genius.
Uncle Phil Knight! GO DUCKS!!!
As a duke fan, I cried when UNLV beat duke by 30 points.. i still hate UNLV 33 YEARS LATER
Matt Damon as Sonny Vaccaro? Lots of suspension of disbelief there.
Is this the same Sonny Vaccaro who told former Laker, Mychel Thompson that his high school senior son would never make it in the NBA?
Mychel's son is Clay Thompson of the Golden State Warriors.
Oops guess you got that one wrong, Sonny.
🤣😂
Nobody bats 1.000
They made Phil Knight look like a bumbling fool.
I liked Matt Damon's new eyes in this film. He got the Ray Liotta surgery and thought no one would notice. When will these celebs learn that plastic surgery only leads to looking like a lizard person in the end???🤣😬😱🤦♂
damn, sonny looks like he's got about 24-48 hours left
He's tougher than he looks. 💯
😂
@@mikhelBrown Be careful with your words. We all going to get older one day. Is a blessing that he still alive to witness the fruits of his labor.
Revisionist history, Kobe Bryant was highly touted after junior year and considered to be next Jordan like Grant Hill. Only Grant Hill was signed with Fila. Sonny makes it seem like he saw something in Kobe no one else saw, not true.
So much BS in this movie. Wished Hollywood wouldn’t distort the story so much.
