In light of Derrick Rose's ACL tear, Hall of Famer and former Bulls star (and current ambassador of court side seats), Scottie Pippen, wrote an open letter to the 2011-12 Chicago Bulls. It's full of things like:
↵↵↵Just go out there and play hard. Play your best. Leave everything you’ve got on the floor. Yes, you lost one of your brothers—a warrior in every sense of the word—but I know and you know you’ve still got a lot of fight left. You’re still the best team in the NBA until an opponent proves otherwise. So go out there and play like it. You’ve earned that much with Derrick along the way, but you also won a lot of games without him. It’s time to meet the challenge.
↵Wishing you all the best of luck on a long postseason run.

Word up, Scottie. But what caught my attention was not his motivational words, rather his insaley awesome signature full of moxie and a 'suck it' mentality.

"HOF 2010". Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. I was always on the fence about you, Scottie Pippen, but after this revelation, SB Nation Chicago approves your message signature.
