Michael Jordan was flawless on the basketball court during his years in the NBA. But a recently released love letter proves that he struggled in the game of love like any ordinary man. While in high school, Jordan gave an apology letter to his girlfriend, Laquetta Robinson.
However, Robinson was appalled when the letter hit several internet sites last week after it was sold for $5,100. She says the letter was stolen by a family member and she plans to sue once she discovers who was responsible for the theft.
“It was mine, it was personal, it was private,” Robinson told WTVD in North Carolina. “And for them to take something that belonged to me and to capitalize off of it, without my knowledge, without my permission, it upsets me.”

How are you and your family doing, fine I hope. I am in my Adv. Chemistry class writing you a letter, so that tell you how much I care for you. I decide to write you because I felt that I made you look pretty rotten after the last night. I want to tell you that I am sorry, and hope that you except my apologie. I know that you feelings was hurt whenever I loss my necklace or had it stolen.
I was really happy when you gave me my honest coin money that I won off the bet. I want to thank you for letting me hold your annual. I show it to everyone at school. Everyone think you are a very pretty young lady and I had to agree because it is very true. Please don’t let this go to your head. (smile) I sorry to say that I can’t go to the game on my birthday because my father is taking the whole basketball team out to eat on my birthday.
