And yet the obvious corollary -- that it affected Jordan, and that he'd adjust -- has been a secret until now. Also a secret, for a whole different set of reasons, is that the fix he devised has untold neurological performance benefits that touched off a new area of scientific study, benefiting everyone from modern soldiers to Stephen Curry and Kawhi Leonard.
Not to mention KFC blamed officiating ....
Jackson was less concerned about blinding Jordan, though. His concern was officiating. Key moments of video replay (Was he fouled? Did he get the shot off in time?) were washed out by the lights. And those flashes would come timed with Jordan's toughest shots, making referees blink and thus miss the accompanying fouls.'
To top it off, Jordan's stuff is tied to another person who wanted to kill his own family:
That morning, Speidel cut the gas line to his family's outdoor grill and fed it back into the crawlspace of the home where his wife and four kids -- ages 3 through 9 -- were sleeping. He jacked up the thermostat to 74, got in his car and drove to a Starbucks, where he met with colleagues.
A few miles away, when the smell of natural gas awakened one of the children, prompting the family to flee to a neighbor's house, it became a matter for the gas company -- and the police.
Speidel, then 37, later pleaded guilty to five counts of attempted aggravated murder and was sentenced to 20 years in prison.
To this day, Speidel's LinkedIn profile reads "Business Director -- SPARQ; Nike, April 2011 -- Present (5 years 8 months)." He was, in fact, the man in charge of Nike's SPARQ business, which Nike immediately put on hold amid the investigation before quietly shutting it down for good within a year's time.
