Video: Michael Jordan responds to LeBron going to Miami

At the American Century Championship golf tournament Michael Jordan finally gave his opinion of LeBron James leaving Cleveland for the Miami Heat. Jordan talks about LeBron at the 30 second mark where he said, “There’s no way, with hindsight, I would’ve ever called up Larry, called up Magic and said, ‘Hey look let’s get together and play on one team…. But that’s, things are different. I can’t say that’s a bad thing. It’s an opportunity these kids have today. In all honesty, I was trying to beat those guys.”

Jordan placed 22nd at the tournament.

Congratulations to Alberto Contador who won the 2010 97th Tour de France. Contador edged out second place winner Andy Schleck by 39 seconds. The Spaniard becomes just the ninth rider to win three or more Tours. But Contador’s win did not come without controversy. Even up until yesterday, the Tour winner remained unknown after Schleck closed in on Contador’s lead by two seconds during Stage 19’s time trial.
