No matter how you feel about his Basketball Hall of Fame acceptance speech, Michael Jordan was still one of the best basketball players (and superstar athlete corporate spokespersons) ever.

With today’s news that Madonna and Guy Ritchie settled their divorce, the list community is suddenly all about worst celebrity divorce lists. Always one degree removed from the frightful swirl of celebrity gossip, Listicles presents an original list of celebrity divorce lists.
