“We said we’d trust the jury to do the right thing, we’d trust the verdict, accept the decision of the jury," the statement said.

TOM MOORE, BUCKS COUNTY COURIER TIMES

Wed, Feb 8, 2023, 1:30 AM PST3 min read

Drafting well is essential in the NFL because it allows teams to secure quality, young players on reasonable four-year rookie contracts, freeing up salary cap money to address need positions.

A close look at the projected starters for the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs in Sunday night's Super Bowl LVII (6:30) shows how much the draft has benefited both franchises.

The NFC champion Eagles drafted 10 of their 11 offensive starters, with star receiver A.J. Brown (a trade with the Tennessee Titans) the lone exception. And Philadelphia landed five of them in the third round or later, including perennial All-Pro center Jason Kelce and emerging left tackle Jordan Mailata. Only three of the Birds' defensive starters arrived via the draft, though a fourth went undrafted.

EP 67 Justin Bieber Sells Music Catalog for $200M, Jake Paul Vs Tommy Fury, & Kanye is Married? | Divij's Den

Justin Bieber has sold the rights to his publishing and artist royalties from his song catalog, adding himself to a growing list of pop stars who have inked rights deals.

Bieber sold his catalog to Hipgnosis, the music rights investment company announced Tuesday.

“Justin is truly a once in a generation artist and that is reflected and acknowledged by the magnitude of this deal,” Bieber’s longtime manager, Scooter Braun, said in a statement. “For 15 years I have been grateful to witness this journey and today I am happy for all those involved. Justin’s greatness is just beginning.”

Bieber’s publicist did not immediately respond to CNN’s request for comment.

The deal is valued at $200 million, according to Billboard. Rolling Stone called the sale the largest of any artist of Bieber’s generation.

Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, Stevie Nicks, Justin Timberlake, Sting and many others have recently sold the rights to their royalties. Warner Music Group also purchased late British rock star David Bowie’s entire catalog spanning six decades.

Springsteen’s deal was worth about $550 million. Other artists’ catalogues have reportedly sold for an amount closer to Bieber’s haul.

Many artists at the end of 2021 had rushed to sell their rights before the Biden Administration allowed capital gains taxes to increase, Hannah Karp, editorial director at Billboard, told CNN last year. Others, particularly artists nearing the end of the careers, opted to sell their rights for estate planning purposes, Karp said.

But some younger artists like Bieber have begun selling, too. Imagine Dragons sold their catalog to Concord Music Publishing in August. Shakira stuck a deal announced this month with Hipgnosis Songs Fund for her entire catalog, which includes hits like “Hips Don’t Lie,” “Whenever, Wherever,” and “She Wolf.”

But Taylor Swift is taking the opposite tactic, fighting to maintain creative control and rerecording some of her songs to gain publishing rights to her music.

EP 66 How Ryan Bartlett Built TRUE CLASSIC TEES Into A 9 Figure E-Commerce Powerhouse | Divij's Den

Email: [email protected]

We started with a cause that hit home, literally. Our Co-Founder and CEO, Ryan Bartlett, has a deep family background in military with grandparents and parents who directly served in WWII, Vietnam, the Gulf war, and more. It was a personal and professional passion to bring awareness and aid to the veteran community and the ever rising homelessness issue within it. Partnering with the Tiny House Project was an easy and obvious choice - where the Co-Founders were confident every purchase made could make a difference. Since then, they've been able to expand their donations to other homeless shelters, schools & local communities in need

In the era of direct-to-consumer disruption, any brand can claim their product is the perfect [blank]. Away, for example, launched a suitcase they said would revolutionize travel. In a way, it did, but the design was still a suitcase, albeit a better looking one with a portable battery stowed inside beneath its handle. When UNTUCKit launched their line of dress shirts designed to be worn, well, untucked, the brand presented a shirt that solved a problem few, at least in my opinion, were really concerned with solving. It would change menswear, they argued — but all they really did was convince consumers the shirts they already owned weren't up to snuff. True Classic Tees, an online-only brand that sells, you guessed it, T-shirts and polos, peddles its products on the premise that every single other T-shirt doesn't fit right. In their popular (albeit polarizing) adverts, paid, shredded actors point out that their dad-bod friend isn't fat per se, just betrayed by his clothing. The garments, they argue, don't "highlight his best attributes."

EP 63 WTF is Lensa App, Meg The Stallion & Tory Lanez Drama, FTX is F*cked, & 2023 New Years Resolutions | Divij's Den

One day after Megan Thee Stallion finally got her day in court on December 13, Kelsey Harris took the stand in Tory Lanez’s trial and backtracked on key details in her testimony. In the criminal trial, which began December 5, Lanez is charged with assault with a semiautomatic firearm, personal use of a firearm, and possession of a loaded and unregistered firearm in his vehicle. He faces one felony count of discharging a firearm with gross negligence in relation to the July 12, 2020, incident. Meg told a Los Angeles jury that Lanez shot her feet following a party more than two years ago. “I just don’t feel good … I can’t believe I have to come in here and do this,” Meg said shortly after taking the stand at Lanez’s criminal trial, according to the Los Angeles Times.While on the stand, Meg detailed the events that had unfolded that evening. She testified that she, Lanez, his bodyguard, and a friend, Kelsey Harris, were driving away from Kylie Jenner’s pool party and that Lanez was upset that Meg had wanted to leave. Meg alleged that he turned around in the SUV and demanded that she “stop lying” about their relationship, the Times quoted her as saying. Meg said she and Lanez were friends and had become closer after bonding over the deaths of their mothers. Sometimes their relationship was sexual — a detail that had been revealed in the vehicle in front of Harris, she said. Harris allegedly had a “crush” on Meg, and this revelation fanned the flames of the argument. Lanez called both Meg and Harris “bitches and hoes,” and the discussion turned into an argument about their careers in music, per the newspaper.

Meg asked for the SUV to stop so she could get out. As she left the vehicle, Lanez allegedly fired five shots at her and shouted, “Dance, bitch!,” hitting her in the feet, the Times said. “I’m in shock. I’m scared. I hear the gun going off, and I can’t believe he’s shooting at me,” Meg told the jurors. After the shooting, they all drove away in the SUV, and Meg tried to slow the bleeding with towels that were in the back seat. Lanez allegedly told Meg and Harris that he would give them $1 million each if they didn’t tell the cops about the shooting. The car was stopped by police a few minutes later on Hollywood Boulevard. Jurors were presented with body-camera footage that showed officers ordering all four people in the SUV — including Meg as she was bleeding — onto the ground before they were detained.

At first, Meg didn’t report the shooting. She said in court on Tuesday that she wasn’t comfortable speaking with the authorities, as the incident had unfolded just months after the police killings of Breonna Taylor and George Floyd. “At the time, we are at the height of police brutality … I felt like if I said this man has just shot me, they might shoot first and ask questions later,” the Times quoted her as saying. “I don’t feel safe in the car. I don’t feel safe with the police officers, either.” Meg came forward against Lanez several weeks later in an Instagram Live, claiming that one of his reps was trying to spread fake information about the shooting.
