Michael Michael Porter Jersey Jordan admitted in ESPN’s “The Last Dance” that he didn’t really have the flu during the “Flu Game” and that his sickne s was instead the result of him eating bad pizza.”It wasn’t the Flu Game,” Jordan said. “It was food poisoning.”This isn’tnece sarily breaking news, although it is the first time Jordan has directlyadmitted he didn’t have the flu during that game. But his personal trainer, Tim Grover, . But because it was relevant to the documentary, the story was told again.MORE: According to Grover and Jordan, the story is that the Bulls star was hungry late at night, and so they ordered some pizza from the only place that was open. When the pizza arrived, there were “four or fiveguys outside the door,” which made everyone in the hotel room suspicious.Grover said he had a bad feeling about the Tyler Lydon Jersey pizza, but Jordan says he ate the entire thing by himself. Later that night, he became sick and the feeling didn’t go away in Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals.MJ setting the record straight on the flu game: “It wasn’t the flu game. It was food poisoning” Matt Sullivan (@msully_94) That’s their story and they’re sticking to it.But others aren’t convinced. Jalen Rose once said during a Grantland video (which is no longer available) thatJordan was really playing in a “hangover game.” And believe that is the case as well.The documentary pretty much accepts the pizza story, and director Jason Hehir explained why in an interview with ESPN’s “Jalen & Jacoby.”MORE:The two hosts say there’s no way Jordan ate the entire pizza by himself when there were others in the room. But Hehir explains some of the details that were lacking from the documentary. For instance, the other people in the room had already eaten dinner, and Jordan hadn’t. Also, if they were tempted to eat the pizza, they would soon be turned off as Jordan apparently spit on the pie.”When the pizza shows up Alex English Jersey , Michael says, ‘Everybody do not touch this pizza. This is mine. You didn’t wait for me, don’t touch this.’ So he spits on the pizza,” Hehir said. “I’m telling you what was told to me in our interviews. … This is not the only time. You can look up when Michael would spit on food if he didn’t want people to eat it.”Hehir is right. I immediatelyGoogled “Michael Jordan spit on food” and came up with a result from a fantastic .From OTL:Back when they used to shoot a lot of commercials, Jordan’s security team would wait for him in his trailer while he was on set. A woman named Linda cooked Michael’s meals, and he loved cinnamon rolls. She’d bake a tray and bring Denver Nuggets Jersey it to him. When it came time to film, he’d see the guards eyeing the cinnamon rolls and he’d walk over and spit on each one, to make sure nobody took his food.Getting back to the pizza, Hehir says he doesn’t believe the food was tampered with. He also doesn’t believe Jordan was dealing with a hangover.”It’s not a hangover if you’re on the ground grabbing your stomach at 2 or 3 in the morning. That’s not what hangovers are,” Hehir said. “And that is documented that he was doing that. And many people saw that happen. His mom was involved in this proce s as well Allen Iverson Jersey . So as much as I would like to believe the conspiracy theories and investigate them and all that, I think that the truth is a lot simpler than that.”
