McJordan Mention on Colbert

Posted by Adam Kuban, December 1, 2006

Great find from an AHT reader ...

Dear AHT: Is it a sad comment on how much time I spend online that, last night, while watching this boring interview on Colbert, I thought of AHT 1:10 into this video, when he gives the reason Michael Jordon is the greatest sports figure of all time? —P.M.

Not sad at all, P.M. You should see how much time we spend online. That is truly said. —The Mgmt.

TRANSCRIPT
Colbert: Who's the greatest sports figure of our time right now?
Mike Lupica: It's either Tiger Woods or Roger Federer.
Colbert: Wrong. It's Michael Jordan. Still.
Lupica: But he's not playing
Colbert: It doesn't matter. Him not palying is still a better sports figure than anybody else right now. And not because of his stats, which are impressive, but because of the McJordan sandwich at McDonald's. Do you remember it?
Lupica: Yes, I do.
Colbert: Double cheeseburger, bacon, barbecue sause. OK? He's got a lock. That's it. He gets it forever from me. Because I think part of that sandwich is still in me.
