Scottie Pippen Is Broke and Trying to Comeback To The NBA

Posted by Brian

Scottie Pippen

This story makes my stomach hurt! During All-Star weekend, Scottie Pippen hinted that he wanted to make a comback to the NBA. There was a lot of speculation, but the true answer surfaced on Friday. Pippen is being sued by U.S. Bank for $5.021 million due to principal, interest and attorney fees from a dispute over a private jet and company Pippen once owned.

Here is Pippen’s Response:

“the charter-plane issue is one of many poor business decisions that were made primarily by a former agent, whom he blames for causing him to lose about $27 million in bad investments and questionable accounting.”

I could even go there with him because there are a lot of stories of players getting duped by con men who pose as agents. But a little further research into Pippen’s salary history(not including endorsements, playoff winnings, and other appearance incomes), Pippen should not be broke.

1988  $725,000

1989  $575,000

1990  $670,000

1991 $765,000

1992  $2,770,000

1993  $3,425,000

1994  $3,075,000

1995  $2,225,000

1996  $2,925,000

1997  $2,250,000

1998  $2,775,000

1999  $11,000,000

2000  $14,795,642

2001  $13,750,000

2002  $18,083,564

2003  $19,727,524
2004  $4,917,000

2005 $5,408,700

Career (may be incomplete) $109,862,430

He made almost $110 million from salary alone. I would easily say he made another 20-30 million from Endorsements. That is more than one deal gone bad…..that is a lot of fucks ups.

Now we have to see him embarass himself trying to chase Lebron and Melo around. Being a Chicago Native, this is a damn shame!

    the man needs help
    posting this like it was something to laugh at is wrong

  2. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Manny 6th January, 2008 at 4:49 pm

    Screw him, he should be laughed at. I don’t feel sorry for him because he was stupid enough to blow somewhere in the neighborhood of 150 million dollars. You bet he needs help. Mental help.

  3. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Darren Jay 16th July, 2008 at 4:32 pm

    This is a shame. He let over $100 million slip through his hand.

    [...] became the way to solve everything from the auto industry to the housing industry to a broke Scottie Pippen. Their new releases didn’t exactly exude “new” and “fresh,” and [...]

    F@ck him, he never tipped! every one that used to serve him in Chicago called him “no tippin pippin” I guess what comes around goes around!

  6. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Old Bartender 11th September, 2009 at 3:29 pm

    Oh yeah and in case you were wondering what that smell was in your silver Mercedes? Our valet crew used to piss in your trunk because you didn’t tip! you remember them you once called them “white bitches”.

  7. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Scottie Pippen 9th February, 2010 at 5:42 am

    This is Scottie Pippen and all I have to say is, the joke is on you I liked the piss smell in my benz!

  8. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Shar 15th February, 2010 at 1:58 am

    You go, Pip! The very idea of someone peeing in client’s car. You didn’t deserve a tip. Try giving service over and above. Besides, did you ever think that the man might have believed that you should be paid a fair wage for your service? Why should you be dependent upon the generosity of others? If you work – you should be PAID!

    Ok, so he did earn $110 million for playing ball, but agents certainly get a cut off the top (15%), so that leaves him with $90 million. Now, the federal government comes in and takes a good 40%, so you’re to $54 million. Of course, the state grabs boat loads of money too, and add in all the property taxes, big homes, sales tax. It’s just about the amount he lost in business ventures — which makes him BROKE AS A JOKE! Get a real job, Pippen — work will do you good and next time you come across a big pay day you will respect what you have a little more. Just sayin………

    Boooooo Hoooooooo. Maybe now that your broke, you may finally understand all those people you decided not to tip! A private jet? Come on Scottie, where you goin’, and did anyone mention how much fuel costs, and mechanics cost, and pilots cost when you bought that plane?

    Scotties nothing but another dumb nigga just loving to throw his money back to whitey, except he’s really just throwin’ his money back to Arabs and Koreans, cause the white man has forfeited his stake in everything due to white guilt. Scotties next gig will be him asking “would you like paper, or plastic” . See you on skid row, dumbass.

    bet MICHAEL JORDON wont give him a dime lol

  12. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Chance 7th April, 2010 at 5:30 pm

    Pippen is broke because of bad investments and his lawyers screwed him. He wasn’t the guy blowing 10k a month on partying. It was all real estate and other investments in Arkansas.

  13. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Michael Muhammad 19th May, 2010 at 2:44 pm

    My neighborhood talked bad about Pippen for sneaking around corners and hiding when visiting his Aunt who had a nose just like Pippen without speaking to them. I didn’t know the man didn’t tip. But whoever gave him a tip to purchase the jet because he was a frequent flyer needs to be shot. Pippen was one of my favorite players. I wish I could slip him a few business plans right now.

    My toilets need cleaning, Scottie. Come clean them and I’ll give you a fair wage.

  15. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Stephen 29th June, 2010 at 6:28 pm

    Why cant Scottie Work like the rest of us. Messenger, Bartender, McDonalds? I think Scottie would make a really good Mail Man.

  16. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by rod foster 30th June, 2010 at 1:44 am

    Scottie never tipped me either.

  17. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Ed White 30th June, 2010 at 5:10 pm

    He should work of rhe federal government. They employ a talent pool of people who can blow millions in less time that he did.

  18. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by lakas247 30th June, 2010 at 10:15 pm

    Man Pippens dat dude and yall should respect him cuz he did his thang for the windy city and yall disgraceful bastards talk down on him…yall suck…heres a tip get a real job you dicks,I wouldnt tip you losers either!!!

  19. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Elwood 1st July, 2010 at 12:22 am

    Scottie is a jerk. He had no class on the court with his antics and bush league play and he is obviously is a very poor business man. I heard most of these NBA players have no class and don’t know how to tip so the fact that he has been known not to tip does not surprise me.

  20. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by savagerex 10th July, 2010 at 11:04 pm

    Pippen stayed at the Penn in Chicago back in the day for like a week. He never tipped anybody during his stay.

  21. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Shonuff 16th July, 2010 at 12:12 am

    Yo know what man, pippen is for real man got it dude and you no what man you no need tip or what?

  22. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Krissy 17th July, 2010 at 6:16 pm

    It is sad to see Scottie lost all his money. It sounds like he just didn’t know how to handle his money. Hopefully he can make some of it back.

  23. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Ton 18th July, 2010 at 12:54 pm

    Scottie use to refuse autographs, saying his agent would not allow free autographs. I still remember that till this day you scumbag. I hope you lose all your money! BTW Scottie, if you are looking for a job, I here they are hiring at Walmart.

  24. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by bob 21st July, 2010 at 11:05 am

    I think he had bad investments you folks are what’s called fair weather friends or front runners in other words assholes hope you make it back scottie

  25. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by bob 25th July, 2010 at 11:10 pm

    Bob, you must have shit for brains! Go get bent and quit trying to apologize for that asshole!

  26. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Jay 27th July, 2010 at 11:56 pm

    Pippen tipped me a buck one time for his valet parking. I thought for sure he would have given me a twenty, but oh well, at least I got a tip.

  27. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by desi 2nd August, 2010 at 11:55 pm

    Pippen is ambassador for the Bulls. What a joke, they probably don’t want that dumb ass to be doing anything else with the organization. What a stupid ass!

  28. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Joe 7th August, 2010 at 12:45 pm

    Pippen is a bum! It is funny seeing him beg for a worthless job with the Bulls.

  29. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by TheTruth 10th August, 2010 at 9:43 pm

    His net worth now is $14 Million….as of 2009. Terrible

  30. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Paul William III 11th August, 2010 at 12:56 pm

    FYI…you are not obligated to tip. Its an option. The fact that someone doesnt want to tip you is at their discretion…Some of you sound like you work at a gentlemens lounge crying about tips..

  31. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by EJ 12th August, 2010 at 1:07 am

    Good point about the tipping, however it is customary to tip for services. Pippen is difficult to figure out, it kind a shows you what fame and fortune can make people blind.

  32. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Jay and Bob 12th August, 2010 at 8:50 pm

    Just Leave Pippen alone!

  33. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Stephen 12th August, 2010 at 9:45 pm

    How much are the bulls paying Scottie to be a ambassador???

  34. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Stephen 12th August, 2010 at 9:52 pm

    Why cant Michael Jordan give Scottie some money. I thought they were best friends, WTF.

  35. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by EJ 15th August, 2010 at 7:16 pm

    Michael is not going to give Scottie his money, he is tied up w/ alimony and supporting a struggling market in Charolote.

  36. 4Avatars v0.3.1Posted by Timmy! 19th August, 2010 at 12:24 am

    I feel sorry for poor old pippen. We call him no tippin Pippen in Chicago.

    Pippen is a moron!
