The new Michael Jordan documentary has a funny way of describing kiiinda important people in U.S. history — like Barack Obama and Bill Clinton — but hey … they aren’t wrong.
On Sunday, ESPN aired the first two episodes of “The Last Dance” — and while they were talking about MJ’s early years at UNC and eventually with the Bulls … they brought in former Presidents Obama and Clinton.
Funny enough, the producers didn’t seem interested in highlighting either guy’s political career … referring to Bubba as “Bill Clinton, Former Arkansas Governor” and Barry as “Former Chicago Resident.” Disrespectful? Eh, maybe. Hilarious??? Abso-freakin’-lutely!
Here’s the thing … the odd title choices aren’t incorrect. Yes, Bill was the governor of AR once upon a time before he made a run at the White House in the early ’90s — and he WAS discussing Scottie Pippen‘s days at the University of Central Arkansas.
And sure, Barack, the former U.S. Senator and Prez WAS talking about what Chi-Town was like when MJ first arrived.
.@common used to be a ball boy for the @chicagobulls. A fan offered him $5 to get Jordan’s autograph. MJ told Common to sign it and he spelled “Michael” wrong. He had to give the money back. 😆😆😆 #greatstory #truestory pic.twitter.com/0YNTV8hfLe

BTW, there were other famous talking heads for the interview, including Common … who told a sad but funny story about MJ basically saying … “F*** Them Kids.”
