Michael Jordan to play 3 or more NBA Games (again)

I was just reading on foxsports a few days ago that Michael Jordan is purchasing 49% of the New Orleans Hornets. He is apparently moving them to Las Vegas and he stated that he will play in two exhibition games and one season game...

Crazy.
 
3. Item: Michael Jordan and a group of investors buy 49 percent of the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets from George Shinn.

What this really means: Having finally gained a foothold in the league, Jordan has no problem talking Shinn into moving the team to Las Vegas, and Las Vegas mayor Oscar Goodman garners a $100 million pledge from casino owners and various former NBA players to provide the city of New Orleans, for whom the money has more value to the city than the team ever could. In addition to that, Jordan promises two exhibition games and one regular season game a year to be played in the New Orleans Arena by the newly ordained Las Vegas Cash. Jordan, himself, agrees to play in the exhibition games with the full understanding he will not attempt the BFS. Following three intense months of acrimony, a smiling NBA commissioner David Stern concedes in a nationally telecast press conference that this move was approved because "Everything Jordan does is for the good of the game."

The Cash is a perfectly acceptable name for someone who was so enthralled with gambling. Too bad it was never 'proven' that he bet on Basketball... or we'd have a new-age Pete Rose on our hands.
