Why Paul Allen is only worth ≈ 13billion



Paul Allen is an American industrialist and philanthropist who co-founded Microsoft with Bill Gates and is one of the wealthiest people in the world with a personal wealth of US$13.5 billion as of 2010 and is clearly not the nicest most empathetic person in the world.

Paul Allen fired  GM Kevin Pritchard on draft night. The story broke just minutes before John Wall was drafted by the Washington Wizards. Curious. No? Pritchard will handle drafting duties tonight and then pack his bags for Paul Allen. He's thought of as a top NBA GM and should have no trouble finding another job.

Sportynation, this is worse than getting fired on Christmas eve.  This is more like getting fired the day before an IPO or the day before the Olympics. It's wild. This is awful. You'd think that Allen would have known this before today. No? There are only a very very few reasonable things that should occur at the 25th hour such as Pritchard commiting a crime or something taudry such as sleeping with Allen's wife, mother, daughter, or son. I'm just sayin'.

I leave you with this....who wants to work for Mr. Allen? Whoooooooo? I sure don't. Whataguy.

This is my mini Minority Report.
