[Jones thought about the day when he should have attended basketball practice after a high school game. But, Instead went to a strip club. He did so because he felt like his coach at the time was trying to make sure he did not show favoritism to the young kids.]428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNN1rfuzux
[And as a result he swung completely in the total opposite direction. All he did was pick f--king splinters out of his ass on the bench! The only time that his number was called, happen when someone got hurt.428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwfTOtHge3
So he went to a strip club with his buddies and they got into a fight with some local hood rats,428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQVuuEK8w6
cuz, they hit on his girl.
After the incident, one of the dudes had to be transported to the hospital by ambulance.
He hope that particular incident would not come back to bite him in the ass later on in his career.]

Eddie offers Jones a lot of money and promises to make him a superstar. 428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kMSezJuwF

Micheal says, "I'm glad I could help, Jones. And I'm confident that I can continue to help you in the future."428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRelxvMdRQw
Eddie interjects, "I understand that you have a close, buddy type relationship with Michael. But I want you to think about what's best for your career. I can offer you more money, better and richer endorsements, and more opportunities than Michael can."428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaWVAD8H3R
Jone's face is flush, "I know, Eddie. And that's a tempting offer. But I also need to consider my close relationship with Michael. He's more than just my agent. He's my friend."428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FvgVUjynB
Eddie isn't deterred, "I understand. But, listen, friendship doesn't always mix well with business."428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBzBOMsgXD
