July 25, 2015 marks the 20th anniversary of the Jock Jams music compilation series. For the uninitiated (or those born after 1995) the premise behind Jock Jams sounds at best pretty silly and, at worst, nonsensical.

Here's Someone With More $ Than He Knows To Do With
See How Michael Jordan Earns and Spends His Fortune
It’s no secret that MJ makes hundreds of millions of dollars in Jordan Brand royalties year in and year out. But with other mounting business ventures and an increasing $500 valuation placed on the Charlotte Hornets, his empire continues to increase tenfold.
Like all other billionaires, Jordan has no problem spending the fortune that he earns. Though not frivolously in terms of what he generates, and ultimately retains, MJ indulges in spoils such as mansions, private jets and yachts – all things billionaires typically own and for all intents, deserve. See for yourself in the clip below as we all marvel in the Jordan lifestyle.

The U.S. Open Makes Its Way Back To L.A. In 2023
The Country Club is getting its first U.S. Open in three decades, and Los Angeles Country Club is set to host its first major championship.
The newcomer is an old classic - the North Course at Los Angeles Country Club, which gets the U.S. Open in 2023. It will be the first time the U.S. Open is held in Los Angeles since Ben Hogan won at Riviera in 1948.
LA North is on the other side of the 405 freeway near Beverly Hills. George C. Thomas redesigned the course in 1927, and Gil Hanse restored it five years ago.
"We're in for a real treat," USGA executive director Mike Davis said. "It will be a wide U.S. Open. The course will have generous fairways, and it will be firm and fast. And it will be great to take the U.S. Open to the second-largest city in the country."
