I know he is a phenomenal player...one of the best ever
but do you respect him as a person?
Read this...
" He married Juanita Vanoy in September 1989, and they have two sons, Jeffrey Michael and Marcus James, and a daughter, Jasmine. They filed for divorce on January 4, 2002, citing irreconcilable differences, but reconciled shortly thereafter. They filed for divorce again on December 29, 2006 commenting that the decision was made "mutually and amicably...
On July 21, 2006, a Cook County, Illinois judge determined that Jordan did not owe a former lover, Karla Knafel, $5 million. Knafel claimed Jordan promised her that amount for remaining silent and agreeing not to file a paternity suit after Knafel learned she was pregnant in 1991. A DNA test showed Jordan was not the father of the child."

Knafel's attorney, Michael Hannafan, said his client and Jordan had a sexual relationship from 1989 to 1991 in Chicago, Indianapolis and Phoenix. Knafel discovered she was pregnant shortly after being with Jordan in November 1990, Hannafan said.
At that time, she believed the child was Jordan's, he said.
Jordan then offered her $5 million to buy her silence about their relationship and about the child she thought was his, Hannafan said.

He is human and therefore has his share of missteps just like the rest of us.
Not sure why you asked this in a football board, but I will overlook that.
My point is that nobody is free of sin and all people at some point in their lives make decisions they later wish they had not.
Unfortunately for famous people is that we all learn about their indiscretions quickly! Is this fair? I don't know. I just know that if I make a bonehead decision and get busted, I would certainly prefer that it not be publicized. But famous people live in a different world than we do and are paid handsomely to live there. I truly believe that part of their high salary is to make up for being under a microscope all the time. I certainly would not want that, as I am human also and not perfect.
Is Mike a good person? Well, unless you know him personally you really can not judge. Just because he cheated on his wife does not, in my mind, make him automatically a bad person. I don't know the details of the situation and even if I did and none favored Mike, still not sure I would label him a bad person, just for having an affair. Yes that is disrespecting his wife, but does that automatically mean that he disrespects everyone else in the world and is a bad person? I think not!
