They make too much money.

MTV news is reporting that Jay-Z is interested in buying the New Jersey Nets and bringing them to his hometown, Brooklyn, NY. And P. Diddy has an interest in buying a team. He's creating Dallas' next season jerseys.

And from what I hear, NY Knicks management or ownership never returned any of P. Diddy's calls lol. Good for him.

What do rich, spoiled, law breaking rappers do when they have more money than they know what to do with? They buy a team full of rich, spoiled, law breaking athletes.

exactly.

ever other person just make comments about what they hear on the radio or tv.

It's a fact that the NETs can barely sell out in Jersey. No one cares about them. Even after going to the Finals TWO years in a row. I think Brooklyn can sustain a basketball team.

What's wrong with rappers owning teams?

Obviously no Knick fans have replied yet. While I think p diddy and spike lee (he's been mentioned in knick rumors too) are both idiots. I'd love for them to buy the Knicks and get the hell rid of scott layden. They would run the team as fans and actually try to put a winning team on the court. Just look at Mark Cuban, sure most people don't like him, but you have to like the way he supports his team and tries to field the best team he possibly can.

as opposed to greedy owners not wanting to spend money on talent and cutting corners just to break even and even cash in a little bit of money for themselves?

Both have net worths in the several hundred million dollar range. As was stated here, a majority of that comes from other businesses, not from making music (or whatever you call what puffy does). In addition to the above, Jay-Z also owns the 40/40 Club in New York and has a sneaker deal with Reebok, and puffy owns a restaurant or two.

:beer: to both of them for being good businessmen.

Puffy is a leach! He leaches on to people with talent, and makes everyone think he is the mastermind. He would be nothing without Notorious BIG.
