Michael Jordan played some baseball in the White Sox farm system and that certainly doesn't qualify him as a Major League Baseball player. No difference.

Career? No, but he did make the NFL Vikings team. He had a contract signed for the league minimum of, I think, $250,000 a year. Lesnar never played in the NFL Europe. Although, it is funny to see you try to say that the NFL Europe is not a part of the NFL when the NFL Europe actually has "NFL" in its name, LOL. They never "basically told him he's not good enough." I think maybe they told him that he needed experience.
And, Jordan actually did play in regular season MLB games. That is the MLB that means Minor League Baseball. According to his Wiki, "He had an unspectacular professional baseball career for the Birmingham Barons, a Chicago White Sox farm team, batting .202 with 3 HR, 51 RBI, 30 SB, and 11 errors." So, Jordan was never a MLB player when MLB means Major League Baseball. But, he did play professional baseball. |
