Most people remember Eddie Murphy Raw right? One of the classic bits was when Eddie Murphy is talking about how he was reading about Johnnie Carson’s divorce settlement in the National Enquirer.
Watch the video (strong language)
Which brings us to CBS sportscaster Jim Nantz who divorce was finally settled today and his ex-wife ended up with a $916,000 a year settlement.
Let me repeat:
$916,000 a year
Thanks to our friends at RPulse.com here is the breakdown:
Nantz pays $72,000 monthly in alimony until he dies or his ex-wife remarries, and another $1,000 weekly in child support for their 15-year-old daughter, Caroline, for the next two years. His ex-wife Lorrie, gets their six-bedroom home in Westport.
Nantz makes 3.2 million a year from CBS and about 4 more millions for various projects. So she didn’t quite get half, but I am sure that is no comfort to Nantz.
They have been married for 26 years, so at least you can say she stuck around for a bit.
I am trying to think what his Ex will be doing with $72,000 a month considering most people would love to make that in a year.
In the immortal words of someone it is cheaper to keep her.
I find it funny that Nantz cried on the witness stand as he describe his marriage ending. I would cry to if I knew I had to pay almost a million dollars a year to a woman who I wasn’t breaking lamps with.
Of course Nantz cheated on his wife (he said the marriage was already dead by then) with a younger #noho and I am sure his wife was sleeping with the pool boy, but still almost a million dollars is a lot of money.
Maybe Tim Tebow can console him.

I don’t care,what or who she is 916.000 annually are you kidding me, this guy bust his azz for all his life,and this girl with all the nanny’s to help her,gets how,I can understand if she was doing the house wk but no this witch have nanny’s to do her job and she gets what,wtf is wrong with this law system, this is just ridiculous,hey guys if you r rich sign the prenop.this is just not,quit frankly,why do women even waste their time to work, according to our law system all women ve to do is married and they get whatever you have.equality equality equality my azz,sorry jim. she will die a painful and horrible death.
if I was her,I won’t take that money,I don’t know her,but I already dislike her and I am the minority,so that should tell you much hatred she has coming her way,what a bitch and I bet you she was cheating too
Why do this bitch get more than the kids? He has to pay her alimony until he dies? Dam a man is not even repsonsible for his kids after 18,
I really love how ppl are still shocked and surprised by this scenario. This isn't the first time it has happened. If you don't want to deal with alimony/child support then don't get married/have kids. That's the thing about choices; sometimes they have "bad" consequences. I'm pretty sure for every man out there who has had to shell out a lot for a divorce, there are quite a few stories where the wife is left with nothing.
bet your WRONG a marrige is not a sweepstakes !!1
I don't think it is a sweepstakes at all! I'm not even saying that it's right. I'm just tired of MOSTLY males complaining about a decision made by a grown adult. If you enter into a marriage/parenthood, or ANY decision, not thinking about the consequences then sometimes you'll get burned hardcore.
Agree completely with skeptical. Why act so outraged when Stern fines and suspends players for leaving the bench when there's an altercation, he's done it time and time again. It is the rule. Don't like the rule? Fight to change it or don't get married.
in the infamous words of 50 Cent, "Have a baby by me, be a Millionaire"..its seems like this ridiculous adlive is becoming so evident in today's world..For real, we have to change our law system or something because i don't think this is fair, but i'm only speaking from a male's perspective; so i'm sure theres hundreds of women who disagree..But be realistic, What in the (HSN or QVC) is she goin to do with $72K/month?..(Ed Lover;s Voice) C'Mon Son, Get the **** Outta Here..Now, I undastand that she has been with him for 26 years and probably sacrifice her dreams or goals (that's most excuses I hear) for him but seriously, i doubt that whatever she was doing 26 years ago before she met hiim would be making her 916K/year..Man, he prolly met her at a bar afta a (Alabama/Georgia) game that he and Verne Lundquist did..lol..Naw, but on a more serious note I'm starting to see this effect our black community
..Alot of women are becoming Leechers, instead of Seeders (computer terms)..What I mean is that alot of them have stopped straving to be the next Oprah, and instead settled to be the next OctoMOM..Because as soon as she sees that you got a little $ or potential, then (ching ching) she ready to go to PF Changs, then start #breakinglamps..I'mma go ahead and get off this "robbery" because I know this is an touchy subject and I can go on all day but it would be interesting to hear from a woman's perspective..
Good Look Rob
Peace
My biggest surprise is that Nantz was making Soooo.. much money. He is not worth it. Does anyone really care who is calling the game or the golf match?….And when he starts trying to make his announcing like poetry it makes me sick.
