    So, a family of fuckups blames their decades of failure on one of the two successful siblings?

    Yeah, that's a unique situation.

    I'm not defending Michael by any stretch, but that's a pretty weak story. It glosses over how the other Jacksons, who were all rich, lost their fortunes. It glosses over the fact that Janet and LaToya are also perfectly capable of helping out and, apparently, don't.

    Interesting that the story notes that Janet is worth more than $150 million and that Michael is about to lose the Neverland Ranch, yet focuses solely on Michael as the scumbag.

    Looks like there's a lot of blame to go around in that family, but Michael, being who he is, is the one they focus on slamming.

    Sounds like Jermaine is the main culprit for the loss of the family fortune.

    Think Jacko belts out "Beat It" every time a family member comes to him?
     
  9. Let's not forget what a first-rate Jackass Joe Jackson Sr. was/is.

    This is the NYP we're talking about here, so I'm surprised there's no mention of any slamming anywhere in the story.

    Randy should be making some good coin from Idol, dog.

    Wait, wrong Jackson?
