A quarter century after the Bulls beat the Jazz in the NBA Finals, did the league miss the mark with a Jordan-themed Utah Jazz T-shirt or is it time to let go of the past?
It’s time for Jazz fans to let go of the decades old pain Michael Jordan inflicted on the team in the ’90s, The Tribune columnist writes.
And because of a number of complaints from Jazz fans, some of whom said the image was too hurtful on account of the club’s losses to Jordan’s Bulls in the 1997 and 1998 NBA Finals, the Jazz pulled the shirt from their shelves.
I get how fandom works. People care about their team and they care about their connection to it. It’s been described to me by psychologists that these teams, in whatever sport, represent the people of a community, as though they are modern knights of the round table out doing nonviolent battle with knights from other city-states. We all can see the energy that goes into that care factor, that rooting effort.
