smh@the stans on some 'he's a black man, how can you hate?' bullshyt.

It's not about color... if my own brother is telling me ducktales, I'm gonna pull him up on it. If my motherfukking father is pulling that shyt, I'ma ask him like... woah... what the fukk you talking about?

And also 'b-b-but he owns 1%, that's still good'.... hell yeah, owning 1% of a fukking team is worth celebrating, but the issue is that when the perception is that it's much more, it becomes noteworthy to point out the facts.

If Plies came out and said he earned $10 million last year, how many of you stans would say 'you can't question it because he's a successful black man' and call the doubters c00ns?

]So you stan cats based on how much they own? Pause.
Which means you would suck Steinbrenners dikk if you had the chance? :leon:

No one said Jay-z owner the team, now Jay-z can't respond to critics? Like The most famous paper in the country New York Times but he's got to respond to losers like Jim Jones backward ass nikkas :what:

wtf?

I'll stan owners based on how much they own.

They callin Jay owner but the % looks like all he got is a few shares. granted a lotta money but still.

U wanna stan Jay cuz u like his music. not cuz he got shares in the brooklyn nets.

Get real.

Who is calling Jay-z owner.
You should google the word minority, I'll assume that you're black so that's even a better reason to google it. I'll stan the dudes music cause I think it's great and I'll "stan" any black man doing it big. shyt I'll give the biggest props to anyone who came from nothing and did it big outside of sports, drugs and acting/singing/comedy etc cause they are not rare in those businesses. I give props to Jay for doing what he's doing, I give even bigger props to MJ23 for doing what he's doing. Every black come from nothing executive/owner in the league gets props period.

I fukks with Cuban, but I'm not gonna stan a fukking tech geek who enjoyed sports so he went out and bought a team.
I fukks with him cause he's a funny and insane dude. So to get it clear again, you fukk with what cats own? If Bill Gates bought every team in the League would you let him fukk you in the ass?

U damn well know they usin Jay just so more ppl can get excited about hte brooklyn nets.

Its cleary working. its a PR move. and we are here discussing it. more so than the actual team itself.

jay is one of the greatest ever on the mic. him exagerating about how much he owns the nets is really a non-ssue since the only time he really talks about it is in raps. he says alot of shyt in his raps, i dont take most of it literally. the only reason this is even an issue is because some of yall jigga warriors actually do take everything he says literally.

when he said he lost 92 bricks yall came up with all these scenarios of how he borrowed from another connect to re-up with the first connect and shyt. when he said he stayed up 60 hours straight eating cookies and selling crack yall tried to explain how this was humanly possible since yall appearantly did the exact same thing when you was studying for your finals. when he said he was an owner of the nets, instead of just saying it was a dope line yall started championing it and bragging on some "we eating" shyt like yall do. if yall lames didn't do that lame shyt, no-one would give a fukk, but yall insist on bragging on the next mans bank account and living vicariously through these rappers. so now yall idiots got jay out here having to justify himself for some slick lines in a couple rap songs.

Nope. All he gotta do is tell the truth. He could easily flip that shyt. Yeah, I own a morsel of a percentage of the team, but I get treated and shyt like a boss. If he did that and the whole thing would have been :ehh:

But to FRONT like you really own a percentage worth a damn is kinda weak bruh. So the jokes will continue.

It aint that serious....:troll:

I'm sorry but doesn't Jay sit down with the board of directors or isn't he on the board? If that's the case then he mas much more influence than you're giving him credit for. The board of directors run the company, regardless of their actual shares in the company.

Why would I be mad? If the guy is on the board of directors then he exercises more control on a daily basis than most shareholders in the company. Do you guys know shyt about corporate structure?

Great post, all it is, is just a bragging line, many rappers do it, you barely see people trying to take it literally, only with Jay people spin things to make it seem like everything is fact. I remember a thread on the old site when Jay had the line "I invented swag" and you had posters literally trying to act like he did start swag:snoop:

yea the whole thing isn't about clowning him for owning such a small percentage, it's about him acting like he's a majority owner and shyt... "I move the Nets to Brooklyn... I got my own arena"

I don't see anyone who owns a small piece of the publicly-owned Green Bay Packers saying outlandish shyt like that, knowing damn well they don't have that kinda pull... smh at me buying Apple stock and then saying "yea, I made that iphone 5 screen bigger for y'all"

Damn, nikkas in here as dumb as bricks.

Hell yeah Jay exxageratin about how much he owns...because in hiphop thats what nikkas do. If you really do believe that Jay is "still spendin money from 88" or that Nas really rocks "with gats on us" or that Rick Ross is "rich off cocaine" then you just a dumb fukk basically and should stop listening to hiphop.
