He's got the money to have a team. He seems pretty well dedicated to it as well from hearing his interview.
Not sure what his motivation is for having a team. There are certainly more popular sports where he can slap his brand logo. I never saw any NBA/Road Racing connection. Kind of like if Jeremy McGrath started sponsoring a golf team.
So I'm left with the feeling that MJ has a true interest in the sport. So perhaps his team will stick around through a few seasons until they're competitive.
I never gave a damn about MJ, because I don't give a damn about basketball. But it is nice to see some celebrity power behind road racing.

What's this? MJ as in Michael Jordan? You're kidding, right?...

--Know many other basketball stars going by "MJ"?

Yes. That MJ. He is part owner of a race team. Kinda girly powder blue bikes (duh...).
