    Don’t be like Mike

    Thursday Apr 19 1:56 PM CDT posted by Byron Crawford

    Just to switch things up from the all Imus all the time nature of the workout as of late, I thought I’d take a look at another arena in which black men have recently taking a L.

    It was announced today that 50 Cent and his baby’s mother, who almost certainly doesn’t look anything like the woman who played his baby’s mother in the film Get Rich or Die Tryin’, have come to an agreement in which Fiddy will pay her $10,000 in back child support plus $15,000 per month, presumably from now until the child turns 18.

    Jesus H. Tapdancing Christ!

    According to my calculations, that works out to well over $1 million by the time it’s all said and done with, and that’s assuming Fiddy doesn’t spend any more money on the kid than the amount he’s required to pay each month.

    And I shudder to think what percentage of that $15,000 per month will actually be spent on the child. Having worked in the so-called service industry for about 10 years now, I’ve seen my share of mothers blow an entire child support check on a cart full of shit for themselves and maybe a pair of pants for the kid, if he’s lucky.

    Interestingly enough, it was Fiddy himself who initiated the hearings, just to set a definite amount. My guess is that his baby’s mother had been gouging him for way more than that, and he wanted to figure out the bare minimum he’d be required by law to pay.

    Still, as bad as that sounds, it’s nothing compared to what Michael Jordan had to pay his wife. Forbes magazine recently put together a list of the top 10 most expensive celebrity divorces, and Jordan’s split last December from his wife of 18 years came in number one at $150 million.

    Granted, it’s not like Jordan will be hurting for money anytime soon. That is, unless he somehow manages to gamble all of the rest of his fortune away - which, from what I understand, might be more likely than you’d think. But still, that’s way more money than even Steven Spielberg or Paul McCartney had to pay.

    And the worst part about it is that I heard that before she got with Jordan, Juanita had already run through her share of other ball players. Obviously I’m no lawyer like our good friend TPAR, but you’d think Jordan’s lawyer could use that against here the same way they did Paul McCartney’s one-legged wife.

    If there’s a lesson to be learned here, it’s that a man can never be too cautious with his finances, especially once kids are involved. I bet if Michael Jordan had all this to do over again, he probably never would have married Juanita in the first place, especially given her history. If anything, Fiddy oughta feel lucky he didn’t have to pay nearly as much.

    Yeah because Fisty was smart and never married that trife bitch. I give him credit for actually paying, most rappers dont.
    This is why you dont get married, kiddies. All those bitches did was pop out kids. You know Jordan’s wife didnt work and Fisty’s baby’s mom is just a hoodrat trifie.

    Fuck gettin married, never that, imma be like Gene Simmons. Thats a smart motherfucker right there.

    1 hunned.

    Mike had been with that woman for quite a long time. If she was go live like that I doubt if the relationship would have lasted this long. Thats a lot of cash but Mike got it. This ain’t sending to the poor house I’m sure.

    The DJ Formerly Known as N-CREDIBLE says:

    That is the thing that I dont get. The money shouldn’t go into the hands of the mother without any checks and balances to folow. There should be social workers auditing these baby mamas. A seperate account should be required and the records of that account should be made available to a social worker handling the case.

    Secondly, why do these outrageuos amounts get awarded for child support. Keyword is child. A child doesn’t need that much money for their monthly expenses. Sure the child should get the best education available along with a nice place to stay (mother benefits from it but hey what can you do) and decent clothing, health insurance, etc…but where is the line drawn. I know all of that doesnt cost 15,000 a month. A mother shouldn’t be able to live off of child support Its not mama/child support. It’s child support.

    Mike was fucking hoe’s all day long. That’s no secret. I once saw the man in Scottsdale, AZ at a table with 10 dudes + security. His security went up to the bar and asked some of my girlfriends who tended bar if they wanted to go to the hotel and “party” with Mike. He had dudes hooking up the pussy all night!

    A.Cambry says:

    God, grow up. Is the concept of being in love with a woman (especially a Black one) that foreign to you? The least that Jordan and Fiddy could do is support their kids financially, hell, we all know they aren’t spending any real time with them (especially 50). 50 Cent openly admitted that he didn’t spend any time with his child, what the **** is that? Be a man and have a relationship. Marry a woman who desires something beyond finances and have a baby with her. That’s what the moral of the story should be.

    And say what you want about the former Mrs. Jordan, but I’ve always believed that lady to be on point. All she’s ever done is been there for him. His addiction to gambling, his affair with that white woman who tried to pull some Billie Jean and claimed that boy was Mike’s son. There’s only so much you can take when your emotionally invested in someone who refuses to do right by you.

    150 Mill is a chitload of money but he hasn’t contested the amount (yet anyway), so why are you trippin over money that certainly ain’t coming out of YOUR pocket?

    Dude, you seriously need to stop being so lovey dovey, Mr. Politically correct. This isnt a serious debate forum with edumacated people. This is Bol’s backyard. This sh*t would never fly if Transient was still around.

    Bol is a piece of sh*t. End of story. He lives at his Moms house. He jerks it to Gin blossom videos. And he has to say Nullus all the time because he obviously gives off the teh ghey impression when you hear him talk. He slams on peoples looks, yet he resembles the black blob parent from the BarbaPapas.

    And arent you the one that calls him “self-hater” all the time because he calls out black people on things that should not be ignored/glorified? Such as…..Southern Rap.

    1st, if they don’t want kids, go buy a box of trojan rubbers, they work. 2nd, i’m going to take a shot in the dark and say that 5% of that child support will actually go to the child. that’s the real crime. these women are treating their kids like paychecks. 50 should request to see receipts for where the money goes, then we’ll weed out the women who really need that much cake and those who just spend it on self. these girls are slikc nowadays

    You are a racist. And calling you a racist is not the same as talking about how BOL looks/sounds, etc. Its a description based on, inter alia, the statments I describe here.

Nobody cares about your backwards logic on how everything is the fault of racism. Go hold up a sign somewhere. I dont want a serious response from you. You are a joke. People like you that constantly promote the “poor me” victim complex in the black community is doing more harm than good. And calling out Islam for harboring millions of looney terrorists isnt that far off base. You fools are crazy.
