Overly Competitive Michael Jordan Once Tackled His Son Through A Glass Table Playing Football
In ESPN and Netflix’s ‘The Last Dance’, we got a little reminder of Michael Jordan’s unreal mentality and competitive spirit.
It turns out that Michael wasn’t able to turn off his competitive spirit at times, even at home. During an appearance on ‘The Breakfast Club’, Jordan’s sons Jeffrey and Marcus revealed a crazy story of how MJ tackled Jeffrey through a glass table while playing football so hard, Jeffrey’s skull and flesh were visible and in need of 30 stitches.
“I got a crazy story actually. When we was little, we would play football on our knees, like tackle football on our knees with my dad, right? And so there was this one time where we were playing in their room and they had these round end tables at the end of their bed. And so Jeff was going for a touchdown, and I’ll never forget it, my dad tackled Jeff into the glass table.
Jeff hits his head table into the glass table. I thought he was dead. I mean, you could literally see the meat and skull. Me and Jasmine were terrified, we were crying. I think you had to get what 25 stitches?! ”
