The theme music today is for the man erroneously considered to be the greatest basketball player of all time. His extreme esteem comes from the fact that this society is compelled to regard as absolutely peerless anybody who won championships in the last five minutes. Historical illiteracy also causes him to be considered immune to the laws of gravity, one who did not even need a cape to soar over the court like an immortal. But, as with all of the other myths about the man, this too was not the case, for his "swoop to the hoop" prowess came from a phenomenon as simple as the swallowed whistle. So in honor of Good Old Number 45 Michael Jordan, we send this one out to you…
