I love seeing this! We also love the reading of his book and can’t wait to get the actual book which should come tomorrow! It was such an honor meeting the whole family on our trip to Hawaii this fall. I was sad we didn’t get the chance to say goodbye before we left. Sending lots of love to the whole family from ours! ❤

jskoss
prayers ops
I know him!!!!
W maddex I didn't know he alot of godzilla figures
🙃 'promosm'
Michael Jordan taking an hour out of his day for Make A Wish is pretty amazing. When you consider his net worth and how his time translates into his annual income. MJ is easily the most sought after sports figure for sales and marketing for him to give his time to this young man is really great to see. Just awesome stuff!
I turned it on to see him dunk on a kid
Man I really don’t know why they basically use Godzilla Junior actually I know about this this is actually the costumes from dragon lizard monster lords with the whole as the kids to see I really don’t know why also I wonder what happened to the kid
And also the costume
Oh so the mayor is basically Darnold Trump with references to the 1998 Godzilla
Also the costume that I know is based on a final wars Godzilla I don’t know why they copyright the roars from Godzilla in the SCP foundation
You got to be kidding me how does to copyright monsters are free in this movie like the Baragon Mechagodzilla well look maybe they just did not know about copyright at the time and yeah I know but look if Toho sees this they’re probably gonna just take down the video like seriously because there have the rights to Godzilla so I really don’t know why they use Baragon Mecha Godzilla and GodzillaWell work just use a number monster like Mothra or Rodan Mecha King Geedorah I really don’t know why they use two monsters from different Godzilla series it’s weird
Also how is Barragon in this he appears into movies and I’m really confused right now why does a monster up here with a number monster look they should rather just switch it to Mecha king Ghidorah and maybe Baragon will be the Godzilla ally i’m just really confused right now
Have so much fun Brody!!!
Elijah Godspeed to you!
In early 1988, Michael Jordan made my brother, Brian’s, wish come true. Brian was very sick after relapsing with leukemia and he had a fever. Yet, I’ll never forget how he beamed as he sat next to his hero, Michael, the entire basketball game whenever Michael hit the bench. At the Chicago Stadium, MJ and Brian we’re together in the locker room before and after the game. MJ called Brian on our ride home in the stretch limo that he had provided for our whole family. What technology.... a phone IN A CAR! He generously gave Brian a pair of Air Jordans which he signed with love to my brother. We buried him in those shoes. Thank you, Michael, for the joy you gave my dear little brother. R.I.P. Brian Delanty 1968 - 1988 🕊
Rest in peace to him 🕊️
How awesome!!
Wow!!! It’s been that long
Cool how MJ made it lowkey so they could just chill and talk.
I was expecting Kyle Schwarber to jump out of the box lol

That has to be the video with the fewest views, in which Michael Jordan actually appears and that is not just an old game.

We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery, we need humanity; more than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost. Charlie Chaplin

I KNOW HIM!!!! IIII KKKKKNNNNKOOOWWWW HHHHHIIIMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I do too
He was my best friend
I want this to be canon in the new Godzilla vs king kong movie, like the government military is wanting to take over monarch again and the general says " the world is over run by titans, we turned a blind eye last time because of mothra but its clear that the destruction outweighs the good. We got godzilla anguirus in Osaka, megalon in Spain, now we got what the locals call madzilla in Chicago!"
