The Dream of Being Invisible

Jay-Z has many responsibilities as Corporate America's Hypeman the Self-Appointed King of Brooklyn. After deciding to stop making good albums in 2003, he has worn many overpriced hats. Sadly, when Jay-Z started an agency for athletes he could no longer serve as the Nets mascot because it was a conflict of interest. He still frequently attends games, though, in hopes of getting to hang out with his old friend from the Marcy Houses, Mikhail Prokhorov. Jay-Z acts as the fan all Nets fans can rally around, which must be why they don't stand up with under three minutes left in a tied playoff game. Being the Nets most important fan must be very hard for him because he is always visible in his front row seats (when they aren't empty for the first 7 minutes of the second half) and doesn't know how scoring works in basketball.
