Video: Michael Jordan calls Barack Obama a "$%*!" golfer

October 31, 2014

On Tuesday, Michael Jordan took down Keegan Bradley on Twitter with trash talk. In a video that made the rounds on Thursday, his Airness took on a much bigger target.

In an interview with his buddy and Back9Network personality, Ahmad Rashad, Jordan is asked who would be in his dream foursome. It's a pretty standard question asked of golfers and Jordan begins with a pretty standard answer of Arnold Palmer (Well, he's also quick to say Rashad would not be in it). Then, things got a bit rough.

Jordan picks Barack Obama because he's never played with him, but then changes his mind, calling the President of the United States a "hack," and "it would be all day playing with him." Rashad asks if he really wants to say that and Jordan responds, "I've never said he wasn't a great politician," Jordan said. "I'm just saying he's a shitty golfer."

Ouch. Here's the clip:

The ultimate competitor as a player, Jordan famously used his NBA Hall of Fame induction speech in 2009 to take shots at everyone from players and coaches to his own sons. Considering he snubbed two people before giving two answers to this innocent question it appears Jordan hasn't lost his steely touch.
