    Lol the flu game was a hangover. If social media existed there would’ve been pics of him partying everywhere the night before lol. I wish everyone didn’t care so much about protecting MJ image for the sport their would be some wild ass stories

    "Yes, 100 percent poisoned for ('The Flu Game')," Grover said on TrueHoop TV. "Everyone called it a 'Flu Game,' but we sat there and we were in the room, we were in Park City, Utah, up in a hotel. Room service stopped at like 9 o'clock. And he got hungry, and we really couldn't find any other place to eat so we ordered ... I said, 'Hey, the only thing I could find is a pizza place.' He said, 'All right, order pizza.' We had been there for a while, so everybody knows what hotel ... I mean Park City (didn't have) many hotels back then. Everybody kind of knew where we were staying.

    "So we order a pizza, they come to deliver it, five guys come to deliver this pizza. And I'm just ... I take the pizza, and I tell them, I said, 'I got a bad feeling about this.' I said, 'I just got a bad feeling about this.' Out of everybody in the room, he was the only one that ate. Nobody else ... then 2 o'clock in the morning, I get a call to my room. I come to the room, he's curled up, he's curled up in the fetal position. We're looking at him. We're finding the team physician at that time. And immediately I said, 'It's food poisoning.' Guaranteed. Not the flu."
    It's not the first time the idea of food poisoning has surfaced.
    "(Former Bulls guard Ron) Harper always said that it was bad pizza," Phil Jackson said in an interview with ESPN Los Angeles in February 2012. "You know, Ronnie Harper always thought it was a bad food type of thing."

    I doubt Brady is eating at any restaurant in Atlanta - those people are still bitter over 2017 super bowl

    used to be --- one guy in one sportsbook could start a breaking story or rumor. It would take a while to spread inside that one sportsbook then hours or days to spread throughout Vegas

    Today with smartphones and social media take just minutes to spread worldwide

    You're joking, right? The guy who chased victories with the single-mindedness of a lioness on the hunt, is just casually getting sauced on the night before a Finals game? GTFO with that nonsense. Michael Jordan is not Dennis Rodman.
