Jordan, then 33, scored 44, 40, 36, 35 and 40 points in consecutive games from Nov. 23 to Dec. 3, 1996, at the end of a seven-game trip. The Bulls were 16-1 after the streak ended, and no one was all that surprised about Jordan’s output. He already had eight NBA scoring titles under his belt and twice had averaged 35 points or more in an entire season.
When we go into these grocery stores and try to get these accounts, they’re not just looking at us as a product. They’re looking at who we are as individuals and then the question lies: Do they do that with anybody else of different backgrounds? When we first started, we were told from a gentleman that was in this industry for over 40 years, that this was the first time his people were sitting down with Black people. To hear those statements, and realize the importance of African American business … our role is to say that all Black men are not dangerous. Just because we’re from Chicago, the South Side, young, Black males, we automatically have this stereotype, or stigma over us, which is not the case.
Today, Jordan owns an 11-bedroom, 28,000-square-foot, $12.4 million mansion on three acres in Jupiter, Fla. He also paid $3.14 million in 2010 for the two top-floor penthouses in a condominium in downtown Charlotte, N.C., just two blocks from the arena where the NBA team he owns, the Charlotte Bobcats, plays. And, he owns a six-bedroom, 12,310-square-foot mansion in Cornelius, N.C., which he purchased in 2013 for $2.8 million. And although it received no coverage at the time, Jordan sold a five-bedroom, 9,574-square-foot house near the Glenwild Golf Course in Park City, Utah in December 2020 to a buyer from the Seattle area for an undisclosed price after that home had been listed for $7.5 million.

Thompson, 52, the grandson and nephew of Chicago’s two longest-serving mayors, is charged with falsely claiming mortgage interest deductions on his tax returns and repeatedly lying about lines of credit he received from Washington Federal Bank for Savings, which was shut down by federal regulators in late 2017.
“I think we’re taking the game to new heights right now,” Nurse said. “We’re playing a style of hockey that’s never been seen in our tournament before. And so, in 5-10 years, other countries are going to be playing our style of play, and we’re going to keep pushing the envelope and keep making our sport better.”
I see you’ve been taking in the ice dancing. The discipline is rife with pairs where at least one half has tenuous, if any, ties to the country for which they compete (though none of the medalist pairs this year had naturalized members). Ice dancing has historically been dominated by a handful of countries — namely Russia (or its historical antecedents), with strong showings by Canada, France, the U.S. and Great Britain. That means if you want to make it to the premier rink, it might behoove you to acquire a new nationality.
The person who was hit was able to walk away from the scene and received assistance from firefighters, though his or her exact condition was not immediately known, Metra spokeswoman Meg Reile said. It wasn’t clear whether the person had been standing on the platform or if they had been standing directly on the tracks; their injuries suggest they may have been clipped by a passing train but that could not be confirmed early Tuesday.
