ICYMI: The 2026 Winter Olympics are currently underway in Milano Cortina. From the "Quad God" to all the athletes winning gold, there has been a ton of buzz around this year's games. And while we watch history happen, let's take a walk down memory lane and see how fan-favorite Olympians have transformed over the years: 1. To start, Michael Phelps made his first Olympic appearance at the 2000 Summer Games in Sydney, Australia, when he was just 15 years old:
"Well, it shouldn't be needed, first and foremost," Jordan said. "You know, I never wanted to miss a game because it was an opportunity to prove. It was something that I felt like the fans are there that watch me play. I want to impress that guy way up on top who probably worked his [butt] off to get a ticket or to get money to buy the ticket."
The 2025 Air Jordan 8 "Aqua" release isn't just a loosely inspired remake-it's a faithful revival. The silhouette sticks to the original structure that made it famous, complete with a premium black nubuck upper that gives the shoe both durability and a luxurious finish.
Pharrell Williams’ auction house JOOPITER made history with the sale of a 1986-87 Michael Jordan rookie card for $2.5 million, redefining high-value sports collectibles.
