1992 Dream Team

IDYLL

The Greatest Game Nobody Ever Saw
∞ 
On the eve of the 1992 Summer Olympics, the Dream Team scrimmaged during a closed-door practice in Monaco. Michael Jordan led one team, Magic Johnson the other. Two decades later, a game report.


The Dream Team flew into Nice at midnight on July 18 and made a crash landing at the Loews, or Jet Set Central, about 20 miles away. During a security meeting before the team arrived, Henri Lorenzi, the legendary hotel manager, had complained about the number and the aggressiveness of the NBA's security people. "Do you realize who is gambling in my casino right now?" Lorenzi said to the NBA's international liaison, Kim Bohuny. Lorenzi ticked off the names of politicians, movie stars and even tennis immortal Björn Borg. "No one will care that much about this team," he said.

"Well, we'll see," replied Bohuny.

When the team bus pulled up, there was such a rush of fans to see the players that some fans crashed through the glass doors at the entrance. "I get your point," said Lorenzi.


But Krzyzewski, no fan of trash talk, looks back on the game fondly, remembering almost every detail. "Every once in while I'll be doing something and a line from that game will just flash into my head," he says. "They just moved Chicago Stadium to Monte Carlo. It just makes me smile. [Full]

"all men are created equal, that each of us are endowed with certain inalienable rights." - Obama
Who does President Barack Obama think he is that he can change the wording of the Declaration of Independence? Again and again he presumes to quote the great declaration while making a significant change: He omits the word "Creator." Read more:

Early on,  Obama's lack of respect for our flag was manifested by several photographs.  After nearly four years of this filthy prick's presidency we know a lot more about him.  In his mind he's above the flag, the nation, and the nation's laws.  If he doesn't like something, he ignores it.  And his endemic lawlessness has planted deep roots  everywhere Democrats rule. The superiority complex (that's endemic to Liberalism), allows them to fix everything   even control nature, given enough new laws and our money.  However, here's  an immutable (for now) law that they can most assuredly look forward to.

An Immutable Law- So Far

Hooo-rah!
