Right, Scott Boras is never singled out...

"I got 99 problems, but the fact that I just torpedoed a $225 million deal for my client ain't one. No, seriously, we're going to do a lot better by continuing to build his brand in NYC, anyway — where I am told we can also do some big pimpin." - Jay-Z

Damn. This is probably Jay's worst negotiating effort since "Ye, please don't call the song that."

Probably for the best. Robinson's have been known to make terrible mariners.

Jay-Z has a bunch of other songs, you know.

It helps when your "agent" actually NEEDS his 10%.

Lincoln apparently "exploded,"
This is the part that makes me think it's just tragic theater.

The claims that the Mariners would storm out after a single meeting.

"On second thought. .. It will cost you one million dollars." -Jay-Z

Looks like Robinson Cano has 99 problems and Jay Z may be his biggest one.

Is it possible that part of the problem is Jay's alleged attempt to position Cano as a MJ-esque athlete and brand? Maybe that's what the Mariners organization is scoffing at.

99 problems and negotiating skills is one.

is Jay-Z going to be as bad an agent as Master P?

The weird singling out of Jay Z in a way that we wouldn't see for any other agent, taking the "greedy" tag off of Cano himself.

"Ca-No, Thanks"

Robinson Cano has 99 problems and Jay-Z is all of them

Stay tuned to Jezebel!

Me, too! But then again, when people are inexplicably mean to someone, it just makes me love that person more.

I do too! I don't know anyone who has expressed dislike for her, except for strangers on the internet. Maybe I'm just surrounded by people who clearly have the same awesome taste in celebrities as me?

Whatever, haters, I still love Anne Hathaway.
