Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

I was reading about it, and I was like, oh, let me Google Daytona 500.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

The fact that a two-time XFINITY Series champion, Tyler Reddick, who was actually behind the wheel, had to take a backseat to Michael Jordan, who's just the team owner.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show

is crazy work the daytona 500 for those of you who are not in the know who are not maybe gear heads who maybe weren't raised within a couple hours drive of talladega like i was the daytona 500 is the super bowl of racing i know it's funny but racing starts with their biggest race first in the season that's how they kick things off

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show

And Michael Jordan won this as an owner, not as a driver.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

But who do you want to hear from first?

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

You want to hear from MJ.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

And congratulations to Tyler Reddick, by the way.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

But Michael Jordan, let you know, I wear a size 13 ring and I know my ring size because I got plenty.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

I got plenty of rings.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

I just think it's almost a moment in time in that Michael Jordan's so excited that

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

as owner of a racing team in a way he never could be from the basketball team, the Charlotte Hornets, Bobcats, whatever you want to call them, that he used to own.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

And it went opposite of the NBA All-Star Game.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

So, listen, his name is Michael Jordan.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

He is who he is, so he's going to always get attention, especially when his team ended up winning.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

But I don't think this is necessarily the first time an owner of a racing team has gotten attention in this way either.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

Hall of Fame, head coach Joe Gibbs, Super Bowl champion, and the legendary owner of Joe Gibbs Racing.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

There was a point where kids were born who only knew Joe Gibbs from the NASCAR side, not the football side.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

That could never happen to Michael Jordan, by the way.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

No, but I'm just saying, like, Joe Gibbs is in the Football Hall of Fame and then had his career as a legendary owner in NASCAR.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Full Show โ€” February 16, 2026

So, like, we've seen it before.
