Sports Quote of the Month
“I’ve missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. Twenty-six times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”
Michael Jordan (b. February 17, 1963)
Former professional basketball player, entrepreneur
Jordan was one of the most effectively marketed athletes of his generation and is considered instrumental in popularizing the NBA around the world in the 1980s and 1990s. He’s still a hero to many sports fans.
