"In 1994, when NBA center Dikembe Mutombo was engaged to Michelle Roberts, a med student, Roberts refused to sign a premarital contract the day before the wedding. Five hundred guests—including a large party from Mutombo's native Democratic Republic of Congo—had begun flying in to Washington. "[Roberts] never signed," Falk says, "and Mutombo never married the girl." Calling off the nuptials reportedly cost him $250,000." http://vault.sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1153364/6/index.htm i was talking to a buddy of mine arguing back and forth about the contracts that pro sports athletes receive. also there was an article on realgm i think that was discussing the revamping of contracts with the author's opinion of how they should be restructured. my buddy then links me this, because the topic of pro sports athletes and going bk came up. the link's above and the quote is mutombo related. i had no idea...
I don't think this should be locked. This thread deals specifically with Mutombo, not the article as a whole.
i think this i just wasted 2 minutes of my great and happy life to an article about mutumbo and his prenup....now look at this...i wasted another 2 minutes for even responding to such a useless thread.
