    DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE


    Deuce is a great business minded person and owns several car lots in Mississippi. T-mac made a good investment getting involved with Deuce. Deuce is a pure class act.

    WHO DAT!!

    Yeah, but Yao is the exception. Plus it's in the town he plays in. Restaurants are extremely risky and usually poor investments...

    I'm not a "hater" (damn I hate that word) and hope it works out for them, I just think it's an example of athletes throwing away money

    Sounds like two injury prone bums getting together on a bad investment.

    Some dishes to serve:

    Bum Knee Burger
    Sore Back Sandwich
    Pulled Hamstring Pasta

    No its just that nobody signed him because of his injury history. So i guess you might as well say he is retired without announcing it.

    Maybe it is a poor investment but Duce and T-Mac have the money to waste if thats the case. I mean if it works it works can't blame them for trying but Football and Basketball aren't always going to be there for them. They do need an after sports life. It just may work.

    I hope you are being sarcastic. The restaurant business is one of the hardest to break into as a starter, they have a high failure rate.

    Little bit of an exaggeration don't you think. The car business has been one of the most difficult in this recession so I wouldn't label him an all time bust and the article only mentions McCallister as one of many celebs that have experienced setbacks. Found it interesting that Gordon Ramsey is struggling in his restaurant businesses, if he can't make it in the restaurant business can anybody.
