When the GOAT shows up, you listen. Of course Michael Jordan had everyone’s full attention Saturday night. But because everyone hangs on to every word that comes from the Jesus Christ of basketball, it’s what MJ said towards the end of his pep speech that’s leaving everyone in the sports world saying, “wait … what??”
MJ was in Chapel Hill speaking to the crowd at Dean Smith Center at half time of the Duke-UNC game Saturday night, announcing his brand would be the new face of UNC football.
Of course Air Jordan is still one of the most iconic athletes in the world; he’s still a living god for those at UNC; which means he could yell ‘potato salad!’ and the crowd would go nuts.
Want proof?
Just tell us what the hell does MJ mean when he says, “The ceiling is the roof!”
His final note left the sports world in a frenzy.
Michael Jordan: “The ceiling is the roof.”
