What I also know is that they missed the whole point of MJ's speech. He was thanking every person who ever challenged him or said he wasn't good enough or said they were better than him. He was thanking them because every single one of those times that they said or thought something along those lines just fueled the fire of his competitiveness and made him work harder and become an even better player than he already was. So to all the MJ haters...if they're looking for someone to point a finger at for MJ's superior airness, they have only themselves to blame for supplying the wood for the fire. The Jerry Krause comments were definitely MJ's anger coming out, but after all these years I loved it. MJ deserved to explain his side of what happened there. I have hated that man (Jerry) for so many years because he broke up such an incredible team. And whatdaya know...Chicago hasn't won a championship since. Shocking!
