The Puma/Jordan Connection

Ever noticed the similarity between a certain cat and a bald man who dunks from foul lines?

I'm not sure when I started noticing this, but have you seen the Puma and the Jordan logos? I'm sure you have, but just in case, here they are for your viewing pleasure.

Now I've seen both these logos for quite sometime, but something recently sparked me to look at them a little differently. All of a sudden I started to imagine what would happen if you reflected the Puma logo horizontally and then rotated it about 90 degrees. All of a sudden Puma's cat would look like he was about to dunk from the foul line too. Check it out:

Kind of crazy, huh? Two very different logos, yet strangely similar. Here's one more closer look:

Coincidence?

You can use some HTML (a's, br's, p's, oh my!) if you'd like, if you don't know what that means, don't worry about it.

Just because you're
paranoid doesn't mean...well, sometimes it doesn't mean anything.

I need to be completely honest. I am worried about you. This is getting serious, you truly are LOSING YOU MIND. Get help ASAP!

But......I agree, CREEPY!

I think this crazy connection might actually be that Jordan and the puma evolved from common mammalian ancestors. Coincidentally, Jordan and the puma have 4 limbs and are capable of extending them.

Or, Jordan is a Puma . . . even crazier, all Puma's are actually clones of Michael Jordan.

The real question is which came first, the Jordan or the Puma?

if you scramble the letters in michael jordan's name you get:

chimael doranj

and anyone who knows anything knows that chimeal doranj is an area somewhere between israel and morocco that is actually governed by pumas.

Well my friend, Michael Jordan is also known as the 'Black Cat'. So there you go, now you got your connection completed! Peace

Fellas...

Why would PUMA be JORDAN - both these logo are irelevant.. but for education purposes, PUMA established in 1948 Jordan in the late 80's early 90's!!!! So it's JORDAN who is more like PUMA and not the other way around!
