Haven't seen this in a while. It's a "We Are The World" parody begging Michael Jordan not to retire....with Adam Sandler as Eddie.

    He retired in September 1993 so sometime around then.

    Same here, I loved it. I reference this bit quite often. Every time I hear that Meatloaf song I think of Chris Farley doing his impression.

    Haha, hilarious.

    Now, I seem to remember hiring a VHS once, with Adam Sandler impersonating Eddie. For memory he was singing to the tune of Even Flow also, and something about how hot Eddie is and that he would fuck himself or something....

    Anyone else remember something like this???

    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.
