Far too many people want to blame racism for things it has nothing to do with. It doesn't help they are seemingly blind to the fact this video is to make them look foolish. Who in their right mind does this interview?
Actually Ricky said I WANT BIG MONEY UPFRONT WITH THE REST IN INCENTIVES! You fkn idiot. He's actually on camera saying it dummy! And believe me those WHITE MEN who owned the saints were more than willing to fck Ricky out of whatever they could. You see they didn't complain
@@vancef5060 Are you really mad a business saw this contract proposal and said... cool, if that's what you want... done! Ricky Williams doesn't understand money (coming from the projects as they say repeatedly in the video) is PAYING his agents to get him an incentive based contract with a nice chunk up front. That's all he's asking for. So looking at the 1999 draft we see signing bonuses of 1st overall Couch: $12.5 million, 2nd McNabb: $11.3, 3rd Smith: $10.8 million, 4th E. James $9.5 million... and Ricky gets $8.8 with him needing to beat All-time bests to trigger escalators? He didn't get any more money up front than he would of if he signed a typical contract and would of made MORE MONEY OVERALL signing a normal contract. Are you part of No Limit Sports? lol
Not too mention, if Ricky just gets the typical contract, Master P is serious that Ricky couldn't move a dozen people into the burbs with a million instead of 8 up front. The Saints management must have been hovering between confused abd ecstatic.
@@rexfordmorgan7552 But you forget Ricky was the 5th overall pick in the draft. The $8.8M he received is directly in line with his draft position. Edgerrin James, drafted 4th overall that year with a standard contract received $9.5M. There was NOTHING special about the signing bonus Ricky Williams received to offset the stupidity of the annual salary and escalators.
The idea that they did this contract so Rickey could have a higher bonus and get more money up front is BS. He would have got that signing bonus regardless. Edgerrin James was drafted one spot above Rickey. He got a $9.5 million bonus AND signed a better contract than rickey. James wound up making over $40 million off his rookie deal. 3x more than Rickey did. Don't believe them trying to tell you it was about getting Rickey more money up front. It wasn't. They actually got LESS up front than James did even though Rickey was the much more accomplished player/prospect.
Where was the NFLPA ,players union, at???? They're supposed to review those contracts BEFORE a player signs them . That contract benefited the Saints and the Saints only.
Master P seems to think it's not a good idea to team up with people who know what they are doing If they are white. If a white man said that about black people their would be soooooooo much outrage it would be overwhelming.
Didn't last as long as he thought but they made money but he was way ahead of his time unlike Jay-Z who they glorified today when all he's doing is shit Master P done 20 years ago
I wish i could like this comment a trillion times.. imagine the roles opposite. A white athlete and if master p was white and they were saying all this about black people.. itd be a civil war again
I grew up in poverty. You don’t need $8.8M upfront to get your family out the hood. Ain’t nobody hurting because they got a $1-4M signing bonus. Incentives can be good but make them a realistic cherry on top.
@utewbing Stop being obtuse. There's zero percent chance they did that on purpose. They would've made WWWAAAAYYYYYYY more money if he lived up to his earning potential, not only with just him but with other recruits.
Failure of the agent and agency. You do what's best for the client, and use your expertise to guide them, which sometimes means educating them. Ricky could have and should have been paid, but the agency let him down.
In total Ricky Williams earned $25M after playing for 10 seasons in the NFL. Might seem like a lot but for comparison sake, Edgerrin James was drafted one spot before in 1999 and earned $68M in 11 seasons. This contract really screwed Ricky Williams up, during seasons 2 and 3 he only earned about $400k/year while Edgerrin James was bringing in $5M a year
@@SJ-nl6xl those types of names and those people have done more in life and made more money than you probably will. Impacted more lives then you ever will. What the hell have you done in life!
@@akvalues except only one group is crying and throwing tantrums to be in everyone else's club and then is blatant hypocrite acting like they do not pull the same shit. Kinda like bitching about acceptance race into historically white school and then crying for safe spaces. Or better yet throwing a tantrum when whitey actually goes to an historically black school. One group always ends up looking like the hypocrite and people are finally nutting up to call them on it.
LMAO you whites in here talking about Black people being "racist" is hilaaarious. Black people are trying to lift their people up out of devastation caused by WHITE PEOPLE in this country.. Is it racist when Chinese hire their people or any other race? They never locked other races out of getting a job, that would be racist. They're trying to help those in NEED. I see you new age and millennials are trying to change the history and present of your racism in this world but we're not gonna let you do that.
Even with the new collective bargaining agreement limiting rookies to contracts based on their pick, a number 1 pick these days makes WAY more than $14 million. Ricky got screwed.
I assume it's because FiveThirtyEight put it up on their website first without the video being from UA-cam. Which deflated the view count from the UA-cam upload
Maybe bc it’s a bunch of racist ass bullshit with a bunch of moron ass mfs blaming white ppl for a failed business venture & the worst contract of all time...🤷🏻♂️Just a guess
Business knows no color! There’s Good business and bad business. These athletes have a lottery ticket in themselves, hire someone who can set you up for the rest of you life. Not someone trying to make a racial statement.
Master P trying to justify a bad business deal is stomach turning. ‘This is a learning experience for everybody,’ which is understandable but shame on him for gaining this experience on behalf of Ricky’s livelihood.
How the hell would you think a dude with gold teeth and may you say uhh would be a good agent. I guess master p did t realize the more Ricky got paid the more he made.
@smoothcollectedYou are speaking straight Facts....Real Talk....True Gospel!!!Living in Jackson,Ms.,but born & raised in New Orleans,La.New Orleans will always be home.Peace & Love, brother !!!
At 11:13 "We had to figure it out, we're not perfect". You don't "figure it out" with someone else's life, career and money. Learn first, then offer your services for hire. They robbed him. I would love to hear the Saints GM side of it - they must have realized how terrible the deal was and I hope they fought against it too.
"You don't "figure it out" with someone else's life, career and money.". Amen. That was such an incredibly selfish thing to say. He seems like he has zero remorse. What a dick.
P knew that they gave him a bad deal....He has some Don King type tactics that always make me question P's intent. I don't blame Kodak for being so skeptical.
@mac Stanford Ok.... Well you don't know how much i make or what my family is worth but I promise you its more than a financial adviser makes. Hmmmm.... So where is that agency today? That's why you don't trust a "Financial Adviser" who dresses like a clown. Sure he may have made more money but chances are hes blown through all of it buying RIMS to go with those sweet threads.
For them to back load the contract with incentives isn't a bad Idea. But to make incentives that haven't been done before is setting yourself up for failure. Hence why No Limit went out of Business. Now Master P acting like he started something. He started a business on how to take a drop draft pick, give them an average contract and lose your business.
Master P meant well. Someone had to be first and it was him. Ricky Williams is a piece of work. He was young and very impatient. He wanted money upfront and received it. Ricky right now is still a millionaire to this very day. A lot of Athletes miss out and then there are guys like Peterson who grossed 100million and are broke
"Master P meant well". Like Thomas Sowell said, it's a terrible idea to let someone make decisions who will pay no price if it fails. Master P is a zillionaire so the money he personally lost was pocket change. You don't bet someone else's livelihood. I say he didn't mean well because in these clips he expressed zero remorse that others lost out. He's like "Well, I'm a hustler and sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. Oh well". Oh well with your own livelihood, not someone else's.
Master P . You literally got him signed to the worst contract in NFL history. “ name a worse contract ? I’ll wait “ .. for u to keep blame deflecting is ridiculous.. , just admit that you screwed that man.
@Tuho There are many high profile black people who are well off who tell you they truly believe it's not possible for a black man to be racist because it's about oppression on a societal level. Okay dumbass, that makes you a misogynist because traditionally men have held the balance of power. Broaden your scope and you'll see you become the oppressive scumbag you are accusing others of being.
@@nstratford9073 He feels like him being a hustler is more important than making sure he takes care of the people who depend on him. He comes across as a snake indeed.
@@dalexanderthomas1357 Zero people are going to choose race when it means they'll forgo the big bucks. Businesses don't give a flying fuck about any color besides green.

@James Henry AND they informed him! HE DIDN'T WANT THE A DIFFERENT CONTRACT! What part do yall not understand?? And the numbers he was matching were Terrell Davis numbers who IS NOT the best running back ever by any stretch of the imagination
Yeah you 100% can, he ruined Ricky Williams' life by not putting in effort into actually structuring a realistic contract. The kind of money that Ricky should've gotten would've set his family for life but instead it gave him way less.
He basically just said "Well, turns out there's a learning curve. Oh well". Use a learning curve on yourself you dickhead, don't fuck someone else over with it. He doesn't sound contrite AT ALL. He seems like all he cares about is what a hustler he is. That's really self centred. He had the money to do it right, but instead decided to wing it and it came at the expense of someone else and he doesn't seem to feel like that is the takeaway here. He just plays the race card with something that's objective. Contracts are objective. Performance metrics don't give a fuck what race you are. He may as well have lost money in the stock market and blamed it on race.
I remember seeing 2 black Lexus GS400's with Deep Tint with NLSPT1/2 on Airline highway in New Orleans. P wasn't tripping - He got a few NBA preseason contracts out this effort. Win/Win
There’s nothing worst to me than having my race (blacks) use the race as a cop out! Just because we’re black does not mean everything needs to be race based! If you’re a black man and a black business or any black anything tells you to join or do something because we’re both black then that means don’ttttt do it! Have reasonings besides race
There are plenty of people of all colors that don't want to start out as the new guy or new girl. Don't want to put in the time & effort to go from a low level employee to a high ranking employee.
Thank you! Business cares about one color: green. In 1953 that may not have been the case in certain areas but in the 21st century it sure is. No businessman look at a black meal ticket and says "I'd love to hire him but he's....you know.......a little too dark. I'll take the haircut and go for the white guy who won't do as well". It just doesn't happen. Construction foreman, stock broker, lawyer, athlete, whatever. Performance is what makes you money and that's all that matters.
Wow, that's a ridiculous mistake. Did they even watch football? To put it in perspective Marshall Faulk, Ladanian Tomlinson, and Arian Peterson wouldn't have hit those incentives. lol that's bad man.
Dang this is so dope. Master P is a real one for that. Hiring his own people. It's a shame that they weren't savvy and disciplined enough to make that shit pop with Ricky and other athletes.

Master P . You literally got him signed to the worst contract in NFL history. “ name a worse contract ? I’ll wait “ .. for u to keep blame deflecting is ridiculous.. , just admit that you screwed that man.

Loyalty toward own race in the black community is hilariously counter productive
Don’t ever trust someone just cuz they match your skin color
There definitely is "A Limit Records".
Yes master p there are no poor white people....
@Tuho There are many high profile black people who are well off who tell you they truly believe it's not possible for a black man to be racist because it's about oppression on a societal level. Okay dumbass, that makes you a misogynist because traditionally men have held the balance of power. Broaden your scope and you'll see you become the oppressive scumbag you are accusing others of being.
I respect Master P because he tried, he really did, but his inability to trust deep sixed him HARD. I mean, really hard.
I don't know what it is about master p but he comes across as a snake!! I
He's a hustler
@@nstratford9073 He feels like him being a hustler is more important than making sure he takes care of the people who depend on him. He comes across as a snake indeed.
P was and always will be a hustler. Free C-Murda
When did race matter, when it came to money?
That's always mattered especially in this country.
@@dalexanderthomas1357 It doesn't when money is involved.
Depends on the situation at hand.
@@dalexanderthomas1357 Zero people are going to choose race when it means they'll forgo the big bucks. Businesses don't give a flying fuck about any color besides green. It's like this whole gender wage gap nonsense: if businesses could actually pay 70 cents on the dollar to women.....they'd hire only women. Duh.
The biggest trade for 1 player in NFL ever. A rookie
So master p gave Ricky Williams an 8.8 million dollar bonus and an incentive laden contract that RICKY ASKED FOR and they call that a failure?? 🤔
Yeaaaa!! Because if you open a business, you gotta do what’s best for your business and your client! Not just what’s best in the short term for your client!! They fucked up!!
Exactly.. up front money is everything when you don't have anything
@@AnthonydREDWAVE all of them get up front money. He could live good with 2 million up front till the season start and he gets game checks which he obviously didn't want to do. What business do you own? So I won't go there. If lactose intolerant ppl order cheese burgers at your restaurant do you take the cheese off and force them to eat it or do you warn them and serve it them anyway? 🤔
@James Henry AND they informed him! HE DIDN'T WANT THE A DIFFERENT CONTRACT! What part do yall not understand?? And the numbers he was matching were Terrell Davis numbers who IS NOT the best running back ever by any stretch of the imagination

All contracts should be like Bobby Bonilla contract. UA-cam that.
Well, Master P tried. You can’t knock a man for trying.
Yeah you 100% can, he ruined Ricky Williams' life by not putting in effort into actually structuring a realistic contract. The kind of money that Ricky should've gotten would've set his family for life but instead it gave him way less.
He basically just said "Well, turns out there's a learning curve. Oh well". Use a learning curve on yourself you dickhead, don't fuck someone else over with it. He doesn't sound contrite AT ALL. He seems like all he cares about is what a hustler he is. That's really self centred. He had the money to do it right, but instead decided to wing it and it came at the expense of someone else and he doesn't seem to feel like that is the takeaway here. He just plays the race card with something that's objective. Contracts are objective. Performance metrics don't give a fuck what race you are. He may as well have lost money in the stock market and blamed it on race.
We had to figure it out at Ricky’ expense.
Why is contract a madden ultimate team challenge?
That's why it's always best to go with the well-educated instead of the "street educated".
I remember seeing 2 black Lexus GS400's with Deep Tint with NLSPT1/2 on Airline highway in New Orleans. P wasn't tripping - He got a few NBA preseason contracts out this effort. Win/Win
There’s nothing worst to me than having my race (blacks) use the race as a cop out! Just because we’re black does not mean everything needs to be race based! If you’re a black man and a black business or any black anything tells you to join or do something because we’re both black then that means don’ttttt do it! Have reasonings besides race
There are plenty of people of all colors that don't want to start out as the new guy or new girl.
Don't want to put in the time & effort to go from a low level employee to a high ranking employee.
Thank you! Business cares about one color: green. In 1953 that may not have been the case in certain areas but in the 21st century it sure is. No businessman look at a black meal ticket and says "I'd love to hire him but he's....you know.......a little too dark. I'll take the haircut and go for the white guy who won't do as well". It just doesn't happen. Construction foreman, stock broker, lawyer, athlete, whatever. Performance is what makes you money and that's all that matters.
Yeah, let's base your contract off Terrelle Davis production, even though there's no John Elway or Shannon Sharpe on the saints lol
He wanted the front money....he knew dam well he wasnt going to reach those numbers.
Wow, that's a ridiculous mistake. Did they even watch football?
To put it in perspective Marshall Faulk, Ladanian Tomlinson, and Arian Peterson wouldn't have hit those incentives. lol that's bad man.
Dang this is so dope. Master P is a real one for that. Hiring his own people. It's a shame that they weren't savvy and disciplined enough to make that shit pop with Ricky and other athletes.
If I. Not mistaken there was a clause, if he walked on water he woulda gotten 50k that year
Master p could of paid him out of his pocket. He fucked up
