He definitely kept a 19yo g/f (USC student) paid with hush money in an apartment during his time there, so I think it’s safe to say that Carroll did.

“Today, Mamula co-owns and is director of business development for Comprehensive Screening Solutions, an employment screening company in Gibbsboro, N.J. He and his wife, Chantal, have twin 19-year-old children.”

The Seahawks only exist to prove that no place is perfect. I love living in the Northwest but these fans. Good God. They act like they are close friends with everyone on the roster. The team goes down 3-0 in the first quarter and they go into witness protection for 3 hours.

I’ll just leave this here....

No one ever becomes a billionaire without being ruthless.

Look at the multiple photos of Gooddell and Jay-Z laughing like a bunch of fat cats with each other and you’ll realize that this was done mainly for profit, not change. Black ownership in the NFL is certainly a great thing to have more of, but I share your cynicism when it comes to this matter.

Jay-Z is a billionaire, with a B. He got that way by making deals that work out more in his favor than anyone else’s and sacrificing/compromising as little as he can to take care of others. He’s a businessman who has more in common with the 32 NFL owners than any of the other common people, so don’t think for a second…

We’ve got bonkers Brexit, Boris Johnson and floods over here, but I still want to give my American friends a hug.I know that it’s easy to look back with rose tinted glasses but I’m sure that even five years ago racism  was something to be condemned not celebrated and climate change was something to be tackled not…

“I’m taking the trash out and then I’m am locking myself in my apartment for the rest of today.”

Our country is terrible right now. The racism, the meanness and foolishness of our government, the caging of children, all the mass shootings. Plus it’s August and we’re all melting. Not to mention the climate. Epstein. Weinstein. Endangered species. It’s awful out there and this news fits right in. I'm taking the…

Just curious why the headline says majority ownership when the source material says significant ownership? Those words aren’t interchangeable.

Withholding judgment until we see how Jay actually wields his influence once his “ownership” is official. Can’t always change the game from the outside looking in...

I thought the inference that he was taking over majority ownership of an existing team. The real tea, is what current team owner and city would be willing to sale a majority stake.

I think the argument is the fact that his 1 million dollar investment seemed to “cosign” a massive symbol of the hyper-gentrification Brooklyn was experiencing. Basically, in Do The Right Thing terms, instead of throwing the trash can, Jay Z decided to defend Sal and tell the black people “stop protesting.”

From Field to House: The Jay-Z Story.

Jay stabbed Un. He didn’t shoot him. 

Yinzer ex-pat here. People are always surprised when I say that I’m the runt of my family because I’m the size of a brick shithouse. Everyone else I’m related to is the size of 2-4 brick shithouses, so this checks out.

What the fuck does the Treasury have to do with anything?

I genuinely love your writing, Michael, and agree with you on most points but nobody who sounds like a mannish teenager arguing with his mother can ever be considered the GOAT! Anybody who allows others to put him on a pedestal approximating God gets no adoration from me. No one who brags about having the finest…

Jay-Z can’t be dumb enough to think there would NOT be any blowback over this decision. So you really have to question his whole motivation from the get-go when he first got involved
