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%. |

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. |

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. |

Raekwon frequently starts off with Aiyo-Aiyo Not the same, but close Anyway, ya gotta end every line with "in the place to be" |

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. |
