A fool and his money are soon parted.
I predict he will be suing Roc Nation in the future.

What information do you have to call him a fool for wanting to be solely represented by Kim and Roc Nation. I haven't heard one bad thing about them from the people they already represent or from any so called reports in the media. Not one thing. Jay is a person with an outstanding business reputation.
Roc Nation probably has the richest CEO of any of the current rep agencies. He doesn't have to rip anyone off. This isn't Sug Knight we are talking about.
Makes me say hmmmmm!

I predict that Dez will be broke within 5 years of retiring.

He'll likely be fine but IMO it would be much wiser to keep all his stuff separate that way there are checks and balances in place............... one separate agent, one marketing outfit, one money manager.

Doubt it, WME-IMG paid 4 billion for the UFC.

The reality is.. he really doesn't need a football agent anymore. Tom got him his money.. He's not going to get a third contract. I believe Kim can handle any contractual adjustments the Cowboys may want.
At this point, the value of Roc Nation will be in the marketing aspect of his career.

Who Dez chooses to represent him is his business. All I care about is him performing to the level his pay check dictates, Cowboys made a big investment on Dez and I expect him to live up to it. What he does with his money or personal business is his concern.

Personally, I'm somewhat relieved that Dez has dumped Tom Condon and his hardball ways. Now, let's just take note of what Roc Nation can do. What Dez does with his finances, whether retired or not, will always be mainly his own responsibility. Roc Nation is sure to advise him but if they "lead that horse to water but can't make him drink," it's on Dez. If he can't muster the wherewithal to manage his own money despite getting the benefit of some reasonable advise, the blame would be his. Here's hoping he manages to right that ship for his own good.

Here's another opportunity for a news agency--any news agency--to step up and actually... well... investigate a story for once. Perhaps seek out and land an interview with Bryant. Or with Condon. Or with Roc Nation. Heck, maybe hit the trifecta, interview all three and ask for details about the advantages and disadvantages Bryant would gain or lose by going with Roc Nation solo. The public doesn't require abstract tweets for information...
...do we?

Anyone can do that. That's like saying $x got Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, or Peyton Manning $x amount of money back in the day. Yeah, the companies where going to throw money at them anyhow. There was nothing difficult about landing huge contracts like that.

Only funny part, is he leaves Condon almost a year to the date he got his new contract.
