Jason Kidd. I guess that is one way to insure you won't be fired anytime soon.

or gets you and your business partner on the hot seat with the league.

This isn't the rap game. yo yo yo.

If the primary owner didnt pay cash and the league wasnt holding a bill in debt from all the teams that dont make money, no way this is approved.

In other words, if this was the NFL. No way.

He's buying like 0.2% of the team. Nobody is going to give a shit, not even Jerry.

I lied, it's actually 1/6th of 1 percent, so 0.16667%.

Actually they do care. They care very much who owns any % of a team and they like "cash" the best

See Marc Cuban

Did your crystal balls make another amazing prediction? Did you say I would post a reaction to this? Wow, you really are quite a prognosticator.

Next I predict I will post in the Cubs section!

It's a better bet to predict that you'll make a post in the White Sox section.

Then a bad bet by you, but I am guessing you are used to bad bets?

Big Fan you do realize that no rapper has said yo yo yo in at least 3 decades. Also Jay-Z is an extremely successful businessman and I'm fairly certain he has the best lawyers that inform him if he can or can't do something.

I think the last rapper to go "yo yo yo" was Vanilla Ice. Does he count?

He performed at one of the Bucks game I went to last year. My son thought he was the greatest performer ever. He still only used 1 "YO" and I believe that was a 91' rap.

From 2003:

Yea, yo Tay (Phonte) man
Let me, let me put you onto something man
See I'm tired of these girls, you know what I'm saying
Trying to play a nigga for the herb
Yo yo yo
Yee yee yee yo yo
Yo yo yo
Yee yee yee yo yo

We need to sit down, me and you have a chit chat
Let's talk about friends and define that
Let's talk about us never mind that
Let's talk about trust where your mind at
So you looking for a man won't find that
Had a good thing here let's rewind facts
Believe me I know all about them other cats
How they all played the game just to get to you
Spitting all in my ear which you like who
Tickled your fancy who you would invite
To be yours, I penned verses
Quote verses, with purpose, so nervous
I wrote urgence I spoke shy you spoke live
We spoke by, up until this year
When I saw you, you saw me, we walked by
Till you found out I emceed, now you all up in my face like

Yo yo yo
Yee yee yee yo yo
Yo yo yo
Yee yee yee yo yo
Why you all up in my face like
Yo yo yo
Yee yee yee yo yo
Yo yo yo
Yee yee yee yo yo

See Marc Cuban

Kidd paid $500,000 for his 0.16667% share of the team. That's a rounding error for these league owners.

You are wrong about that.

'these owners" are in debt to the tune of about $1 Bill and the league holds the debt.

Its money that has been loaned to keep operations going.

It's not the the size of the $$$'s that matters, its the fact owners have cash flow to pay for the operations.

And I am aware of Jay Z's Yo yo yo success as a Businessman. But I am not so impressed with his business sense. Am I impressed with Mike Norths business sense because he made a lot of money? Nope.

Maybe Jay Z is a just a good rapper/musician who sold a ton of product, thus made money.

And lets not say Jay Z is starting an Agency, he was hired by CAA as an agent and he renamed his client base as Roc Nation.

He is really just an agent, he didnt start a company. He is suppossed to be a rainmaker in this case.

I also expect him to be a rainmaker for a short time and buy back his % of the nets in a about a year, after he is bored being an agent, because as an agent he needs to kiss athletes asses.

Most of "These owners" could cash out at any time and make at least 25% on their original investment.

I'm also not impressed by the business sense of someone that has grossed over $500M in the past 17 years (most not from record sales) and will have grossed $750M in the next 5 years. Someone with business sense would have created a better brand and made more money.
