Nobody in here is admiring the Waltons or Bezos. They're just pointing out that Jay in this type of deal would be being used for his image. He would be rewarded well for it financially, but thats what would be happening.
We all saw the Nets situation, they pretended he was an owner to help them get over image wise in a historically Black neighborhood that they were about to gentrify the fukk out of. Then it was later revealed that his ownership stake had been 1/15th of 1%. not even a single percent but a fifteenth of a percent. And I'm sure he still did very very well on that deal financially, but they gentrified the fukk out of Brooklyn with him fraudulently portrayed as the face to help them accomplish it. That situation significantly extinguished a lot of Jay's goodwill in having his name attached to these theoretical sports team deals.
Washington D.C. / PG County Maryland where the Commanders are located is similarly a historically Black area. And as I just guessed, looked up, and confirmed, it also sounds like the Commanders are indeed demanding a new Stadium to be built for them as well now, so this all might straight up be exactly the same kinda scenario, of involving Jay-Z as the popular public face to fight off complaints of all the gentrification they are likely to cause.
people hate Bezos, but using Jay-Z as the face could maybe help them get away with it. And maybe Jay really does have his money up this time to buy an actual couple percentage in it this time. But, that history is why people are in here talking shyt and skeptical of why Jay's name is being attached to this.
