VIDEO: JJ Watt & The Mannings Star In New Gatorade Commercials

JJ Watt has moved on from destroying offenses to destroying vending machines. Well, kinda. JJ Watt stars in a handful of Gatorade commercials that campaign people to “Sweat It To Get It”. What’s that mean? That means that having a simple dollar won’t help you quench your thirst. And if you try to pull a […]

So Is Diddy Back To Being Good With UCLA? This Pic Sure Looks Like It

So Is Diddy Back To Being Good With UCLA? This Pic Sure Looks Like It

So, remember that one time when Diddy was arrested for allegedly chucking a kettle bell at a coach at UCLA? You should, it was just a few months ago. Anyways, one would think that if that incident went down as said, that Diddy wouldn’t be stepping anywhere near that team, campus or Westwood. But it […]

VIDEO: Michael Jordan Says He'd Beat LeBron In His Prime... No Question

Michael Jordan is perhaps the most confident athlete ever. This became more apparent during his most recent Q&A session with kids at his Flight School camp. The kids hit Jordan with some seasoned questions, such as: What athlete would Jordan add to his Jordan Brand? (Hint: he’s not a basketball player) The usual, could he beat […]

PICS: The Terminator Challenges J.J. Watt

No, Arnold Schwarzenegger didn’t challenge J.J. Watt to an epic gun battle set in the future (although that would be pretty cool). Rather, the Governator challenged the reigning defensive player of the year to something better: squats. Yep. What other kind of challenge would you expect from a former Mr. Olympia champion? A spelling contest? Ha! Watt didn’t […]

PIC: Only The Rock Hits A Parked Car, And Doesn't Have To Pay For Damages

Being awesome has it’s advantages. Just ask The Rock. Yesterday, Dwayne Johnson (aka The Rock) looks to be driving to work when he, somehow unknowingly side-swipes a parked car. Most of us would probably be crapping our pants because 1.) It’s embarrassing. And 2.) We have no idea how we’re going to pay for it. But […]

VIDEO: Michael Jordan Thinks He Can Beat Some Charlotte Hornets Player In One-On-One

VIDEO: Okay, So Kim Kardashian Got Kanye West A Pretty Awesome Birthday Gift

So, I’m not really a huge Kardashian fan and thought I’d never find a reason to write about anything Kim Kardashian does on SportsLingo, but this was a pretty cool gesture. Actually, really awesome. Mrs. West got her hubby, Kanye West who turned 38 Monday, a birthday gift that will probably be hard to top in years […]

PICS: Jon Gruden Will Sleep Where He Wants To Sleep... Including Airports

It must suck to be a celebrity. No matter how much you try to blend into your surroundings, there’s always that one fan who will spot you during a down moment and snap a photo. Take this instance of Jon Gruden. It appears that a man who looks a lot like Gruden caught a little shut-eye at […]

Tom Brady & Michael Jordan

Tom Brady had one heck of a Saturday. Earlier in the day, the Super Bowl winning quarterback was doing a little cliff diving, and it appears later on he fit a little basketball into his schedule. With Michael Jordan. Yes, two of pro sports greatest athletes of all-time joined up on the court in the Bahamas […]

What? Adidas Didn’t Sign Michael Jordan Because He Was Too Short?

March 24, 2015 By Nick A.

What? Adidas Didn't Sign Michael Jordan Because He Was Too Short?

Michael Jordan is 6’6″. In other words, Jordan is very tall and stands at an above average height for a man. But according to Adidas, Jordan was too short to represent their brand back in 1984. When Jordan was coming out of North Carolina and was entering the NBA Draft in 1984, he apparently wanted an […]
