Michael Jordan Ignores Country Club Rules, Wears Cargo Pants, Ruffles Feathers
Michael Jordan is no stranger to ruffling feathers on the golf course. You may remember a year ago when Jordan’s neighbors were complaining about him before he even moved into his mansion on a Florida golf course. (Ha! There’s a bacon neck joke in that post. Classic.) Now he’s breaking country club rules and wearing pants with too many pockets! From the New York Post:
“Michael was wearing cargo pants on the course,” said a spy. Jordan’s multipocketed pants were apparently against the dress code that, sources say, dictates that members and guests must be attired in a collared shirt and Bermuda shorts. But when 6-foot, 6-inch Jordan was offered a chance to change outfits, he demurred. “He was given the chance to change but he didn’t want to,” a source said. The source added that Jordan, who was enjoying a round at the club with one of its members, played on anyway. The source added that members complained about Jordan breaking the rules and, “He won’t be invited back.
Jordan generally just breaks unwritten rules of fashion, but to upset people at a country club and their written rules? You have to wonder if being Michael Jordan even allows Michael Jordan to worry about what other people think.

They already know each other.

I hate cargo short/pants on the golf course, not because I’m a golf snob, but because I hate cargo shorts/pants period. Bless these people in Florida.

Agreed. If Spencer’s not getting his cargo pockets caught on the golf cart’s armrest, his beard is getting caught up in his belly putter. Dude’s just a mess to play with.

I love how posts like this and the previous ones are put up now and in the afternoon. While good college football posts are shoehorned in at the end of the day.

who the fuck still wears cargo pants?
/looks at MJ’s usual fashion attire
eh, never mind

Sounds like that guy you invite to play golf with but tell him to park his car on the back road out by No. 4 and meet you there, since that’s the furthest point away from the clubhouse.

Looking at Sosa’s numbers, will he get in just because of the homerun numbers? Only batted over .300 four times in his career. Only 100 more hits than strikeouts. he did have 379 doubles and a career OPS of .878. He does have good numbers but HOF worthy? perhaps. not sure he’ll get in because of the steroid stuff….and a corked bat

Also, Grantland just posted a 30 for 30 short on the Arnold Palmer. Love that guy. And the drink. But not the one that Arizona makes.
November 28th, 2012 at 11:48 AM
Yes to all…and Rose should be in, same with Miller.
November 28th, 2012 at 11:49 AM
I’ve about got my girlfriend talked into naming the first born Palmer.

This will start to go wrong, for a boy or girl, somewhere around junior high. Maybe earlier, if 5th graders have unencumbered access to the internet.

also…while i HATE cargo shorts/pants/manpris/whatever, i hate dress codes even more.
sure, youre a private CC, but you’re in FUCKING FLORIDA. stop pretending youre winged foot or shinnecock.

Love it.
That’s why I love my club. Exclusive enough to keep out the riff-raff, but once you’re in, the rich dudes out here don’t care. It’s a 12-pack of Coors Original, Red Man kind of a club.

Guys that can bag supermodels wearing burlap sacks?

Get the guy a brain. Can’t run a basketball team to save his life. Oh, and some appropriate clothes.
November 28th, 2012 at 12:55 PM
Wait! Stop the presses!
Michael Jordan is a douche? NO FUCKING WAY!
I thought he was only a shitty owner, shitty GM, shitty gambler and shitty husband.
November 28th, 2012 at 1:15 PM
Do it. My son’s name is Hogan, and I am still upset I didn’t name my daughter Palmer. the wife was good to go, but I changed my mind. Bad on me.
