Michael Jordan is a Fantastic Secretary

So that's what Michael Jordan does for the Bobcats ... he writes letters. Michael spent his entire day today hammering away on his Smith-Corona, and I bet he's going to be spending all day tomorrow stuffing envelopes.

MJ composed a letter that will be sent to Bobcats season ticket holders sometime this week, explaining why the Bobcats still suck, and what he plans to do about it.

"As excited as I am about the future, if you know anything about me, you know how much I hate to lose -- and I speak for all the owners in that regard," wrote Jordan, the team's managing member of basketball operations. "But we are able to temper this disappointment with thoughts of our youth and inexperience, and the idea that we will continue to improve -- hopefully, more quickly than even we expect.

"With that said, we remain committed to our plan to grow the franchise through the draft and the addition of key free agents."

Two ways to look at this. The optimistic way is that it means the Bobcats have targeted this summer as the one where they feel they have a solid enough foundation built that it makes sense to go spend some money (hello, Vince Carter). The pessimistic view is that it's purely a PR move, hoping to give season ticket holders a reason to hang around for another year.

In other MJ news, there were reports in Vegas this weekend that Michael is considering buying a house in Charlotte. He must have a job there or something.
