"Jamal Mashburn earned $75 million during his NBA career, prior to having his career cut short due to knee injuries.Allen Iverson earned more than $200 million during his career, prior to having his career cut short due to his nasty attitude, along with his lack of respect for authority. Jamal Mashburn now owns 34 Outback Steakhouse restaurants, 37 Papa John’s restaurants, two car dealerships, and a real estate company in the state of Kentucky.Allen Iverson is broke, and owes $30 million in debt.“The amount of money that you have has got nothing to do with what you earn. People earning a million dollars per year can have no money. People earning $35,000 per year can be quite well off. It’s not what you EARN. It’s what you SPEND.”-Paul Clitheroe

Former Buck/Clipper guard Junior Bridgeman has double that amount in restaurants.

If only Jamal could have harnessed his business acumen into some basketball skill, he might have a ring right now. But, hey, he owns 71 restaurants, I'm sure that's equally as thrilling.

All joking aside, good for him. So many players blow it all before they're even 50.



(and it's not like he was a bad player or anything, really. I think he was averaging something crazy like 20 points a game or so right up until the bitter end. He just couldn't get it together/ wrong place, wrong time/ wrong team/ stars didn't align/ whatever.)

Caron Butler, currently on the Bucks owns a dozen or so Burger Kings. Good investment as people will always eat that garbage. He will keep making money well after retirement.

Mashburn is an educated African American, Iverson is a nigger. Simple as that.

All at once? He is a true ownmeister.

Good thinking.

A Burger King store has never gone out of business.

I love how people love to bust out that little cliche like:

a) it is actually an insightful comment when repeated for the thousandth time; and
b) it isn't just their attempt to justify calling someone a nigger.

Not racist, just calling it what it is. How am I wrong ?

Bassmaster1984 wrote:Not racist, just calling it what it is. How am I wrong ?

So when you apply a racially specific negative epithet to someone, it's not racist? Right.

You're basically saying one guy is a sensible, mature adult, and the other is a self-centred, aggressive idiot, or something to that effect, but you go to a racially focussed insult to describe the guy. It's pretty obvious.

You're wrong because you're wrong. Also, you're consistently one of the dumber posters on this board. It's a good thing you have Tym and Heenan front and center stealing your retarded thunder.

Whatever fuckheads. Iverson is a nigger punk who respects nothing and nobody, including himself. One of the dumbest posters here? Show me more of my dumb posts asshole?

The first sentence in this post needs a comma. You also need a comma between "posts" and "asshole" in the last sentence. Finally, your last sentence is a statement and not a question; it should end with a period.

All of that in one post asking for us to show you more of your dumb posts. But hey, at least you got to type "nigger" again and bring up Allen Iverson.

Allen Iverson was always better at Choking on his money then Practice on keeping it.

I would like to apologize for my comments directed at AI. The language I used was filled with hate and for that I am sorry. He is however a very "unique" individual who has made some super choices.

You never quite got that nobody was actually defending AI against claims he was an idiot, did you?
