NBA players listening to music before games isn't just routine. Given the emotions it can unlock, it's also a powerful tool for mental preparation. This was no exception for the legendary Michael Jordan.

Jordan’s latest goal? Changing the way NASCAR does business. Jordan’s 23XI Racing team, along with another team Front Row Motorsports, just filed a federal antitrust lawsuit accusing NASCAR of being a monopoly, claiming the sanctioning body has “used anti-competitive practices to prevent fair competition in the sport.”

1993 — Michael Jordan announces his retirement after nine seasons in the NBA. 2000 — Marty McSorley is found guilty of assault with a weapon for his two-fisted stick attack on an opponent by a Canadian court. McSorley is convicted for the Feb. 21 blow that sent Vancouver Canucks forward Donald Brashear sprawling to the ice.
