LOL: Pop Owns A Winery But Didn't Protect Duncan From Bad Wine Investments

[Koolaid_Man]

This is shit is comical....hey Luva I wonder if he knows Charlie Hustle :lmao




As the story goes (http://www.oregonlive.com/sports/oregonian/john_canzano/index.ssf/2014/07/canzano_finding_gregg_popovich_1.html#incart_river ), Bill Hatcher, a worldly winemaker who left Wall Street behind, had no idea who the Spurs coach was, and — Popovich being Popovich — the two became fast friends. Years later, when the Hatchers launched A to Z Wineworks, Pop reportedly became the leading outside investor. In 2003, as the Spurs won their second title, A to Z landed its first vintage on Food & Wine magazine's Best American Pinot Noirs under $20. The vino has since cracked Wine Spectator's Top 100 list twice. In other words, it's good, especially at $12 a bottle.



Popovich once hosted a tasting at the 2008 San Antonio New World Wine & Food Festival, and Express-News dining editor John Griffin snuck a sip.



Popovich delivered a bottle to George Karl (http://www.rockymountainnews.com/news/2008/nov/19/nuggets-report-weems-getting-close-returning/) each trip through Denver. He shared a few with Spurs assistant P.J. Carlesimo during championship runs in 2005 and 2007. He shipped one to Caltech coach Oliver Eslinger (http://www.si.com/vault/2013/04/29/106316155/pop-art) when the Beavers snapped a 310-game conference losing streak in 2011. "It's one of the best wines that I've ever had," Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle once said (http://sportsblogs.star-telegram.com/mavs/2013/11/carlisle-impersonated-gregg-popovich-for-the-wine.html), "and I'm not a wine drinker."

Pop, cuttin' him off at the knees.

Poor kool thinking it's normal for your mother or father to hold your hands in adulthood.

Outside of the court, pop and Duncan have their own lives. Just because you cant function in the outside world and always need a hand doesn't mean the rest of us are the same way. :lmao

Damn... does anyone respect Jim. We know Kobe doesn't... we don't. His teammates fuck his wife. She fucks anyone. His business partners don't. And now Pop??? Its like this nigga is a human doormat.

It's you & Kool always ferreting out the goods.

Its horrible for Pop a wine expert to be silent while his boy is suffering :lol

This is worse than anything Phil could have said about Kobe in a book. For Duncan to be winning him titles and for him to turn a blind eye is cold blooded and diabolical :lol

Pop watched him lose 25 million on Wine while his winery flourished...and then turned around and low balled him on contracts the last 5 yrs :lmao fucking cold ass shit..

Pop was like well if Charlie Hustle got you then fuck it so will I... .:lmao

[Buddy Mignon]

This shit gets hilarious. So Pop really was a fucking spy. I thought the CIA Pop thing was all tongue and cheek... in Jim's case tongue in ass... lol. I researched Pops wine label and thats the first thing that comes up. You would think he'd do his star player some investigative work especially since he's in the same industry. How does Jim live with himself.

That's that "CIA Pop" these window lickers keep talking about :lol

Make the man lose money so he comes back for another paycheck

[Buddy Mignon]

Holy shit!!! Pop and Charlie Hustle just may be in on this shit together. Pop doesn't own a vineyard... he imports the grapes and produces the wine himself. Its his company. He buys directly from California vineyards. I bet my life that bastard buys from Charlie Hustle. I'm in this story... more to come.

[Koolaid_Man]

Pop did his work well :lol

Tammy loses double time...no 6th ring and no cash

[Buddy Mignon]

OMFG!!! Pops winery made record sales during the same time span Jim lost money in the wine game. I'm on to Charlie and Pop... I just need to link those two wine snobs together.
