If you're son/daughter is a athlete or entertainer and they grew up rich & connected...you're a failure.

TYRONE GA!
Jud Buechler has three championship rings.


I don't care if Bronny is lowest man on that roster; he can do that and earn a doctorate at his leisure, use the connections you're prattling about in any number of unseen ways, whatever. And still show up, play a role, and get rings like his father. Having multiple options is the entire point of the exercise.

Buechler was way better than Bronny. I get what you saying, but come on now.

Bronny should be living it up at USC right now.

I just hope HE really wanted to do this and it wasn't really his pops wanting this.

:mjlol:WHY WOULD A RICH PERSON
DO SOME HARD shyt LIKE BEING A
DR OR LAWYER FOR 6 FIGURES
WHEN THEY CAN PLAY BASKETBALL
FOR 9 FIGURES?

IS DELL CURRY A FAILURE?

:devil:
:evil:

:lupe:

The NBA is easy, now?

Bronny/Steph have to dedicate their whole lives to be great or even average at a NBA spot.

We saw Hoops Dreams.

Dudes crash out before they even finish high school ball.

Steph is a fukking outliner. Dell prolly never even had a million at on time by the time he retired.

DUDE BASKETBALL IS A GAME
THAT THEY WOULD BE PLAYING
EVEN IF THEY DIDNT BECOME PROS.

ONCE AGAIN IT'S JUST A GAME
AND THEYVE BEEN BLESSED
WITH NBA GENETICS WHILE LITERALLY
GROWING UP AROUND PROS
AND BEING IN ARENAS.

DELL MADE 19 MILLION
IN HIS 11 SEASON CAREER
IN THE 90S
THATS 39 MILLION WITH INFLATION.

THEY WERE BALLING.

WHEN THOSE BOOZER KIDS
MAKE SILLY MONEY,
PLUS MELO AND ARENAS SONS
WE'LL SEE ABOUT OUT LINERS.

Nothing wrong with it, my problem is forcing it like with Bronny. You learn a lot about life from sports. Bronny should have just done the college thing and set himself up for another career like most student athletes do.

If lebron biggest crime is raising up two responsible good hearted kids and one getting drafted to the premier basketball league and realizing his life long dream to be an nba player after suffering a serious health issue then thats a good thing. As a parent regardless of wealth the main thing is being their for your child and supporting their hopes, dreams and aspiration as long as its a responsible endeavor be it college education or not, and there is nothing stopping bronny from getting a college education after he is finished with his NBA career

I was dead wrong on Dell, but, you're making your point with outliners.

Ppl joke about MJ's kid's crashing out in college, when prolly should be execs at Jordan Brand or managing his charities.

One star for covert respectability politics babble :camby:

Your children's gifts are their gifts. Stop it.

:yeshrug:

Fewer than 2% of NCAA athletes go on to play professional sports:

  • High school to college: Only 1–5% of high school athletes receive a Division I athletic scholarship.

  • College to NFL: Only 1.6% of football players from NCAA colleges make it to the NFL.

  • College to NBA: Only 1.2% of college basketball players advance to the NBA.

  • College to NWSL: In 2023, 2.1% of draft-eligible Division I athletes were chosen in the NWSL draft.

The Jews that own the teams have degrees in finance because their dads played for the NBA or Jewish Mafia in the 50s.

these dudes like king combs and king harris be looking like real goofies the way they move. just straight up lame's with they daddy's black card.
These are such better examples. They had rich fathers and look how they ended up. Bronny and Obamas daughters are living life and not involved in any scandals. That’s enough. Also the most common way to get into the pathway of being a doctor is by having your parents be doctors.

Must say I'm not sure I ever seen someone take this angle before and it is an interesting thought

When your father is as rich as Lebron or as powerful as Obama you have an opportunity to shoot for the stars. Playing in the g league or being a screenwriter for movies nobody cares about is kind of taking the safe route when nepotism got you in those positions in the first place. These kids had the opportunity to do something more cutting edge. They should be on some Elon shyt right now. Using their father's assets to acquire other companies/assets and push innovation

The exception is when the child is exceptional themselves in an entertainment field. Davido's father is a billionaire but I feel like 90% of non nigerians have no idea who his father is while Davido is a household name across the globe
