It doesn't matter what I believe, it's just funny that he isn't contesting it. I could care less, it's his money.

Maybe he has better things to do than skim some bottom-feeding website and doesn't know the story exists.

It is well known that Captain is a cheap SOB. I am not saying that on a bad way. But it is we documented based on his upbringing a little of new cash doesn't change his outlook.

He is the dude that was on near tears bc his cleats got messed up as a rookie and he would have to buy more

Whether it's true or not isn't important.  What we do know is a lot of athletes who came from poor to lower class middle families tend to blow all their money away.  A lot of them have no where near the money they made with their first big contract.  It's the same for people who win the lottery, who came from a situation from not having a lot of money to all of a sudden being rich.  They don't know how to diversify their portfolio, like people who have been rich all their lives.  They simply over spend, and put the rest in the bank. (Where people take little amounts without their knowing)  Of course after they spend what they didn't put in the bank, they return to withdraw what's in the bank, making them close to broke within years or less.

 

 

Recently this billion dollar tournament challenge got me thinking.  What would I do with 500 million dollars?  My immediate answers of course would be to pay off my debt, move into a nice home, and buy my first car.  Then I would help my family get out of their debt, and give them a hundred thousand or more depending on their needs.  After that I'll give a little to my co-workers.  This would leave me around 498-499 million dollars left.  What would I do with the rest?  My immediate answer was to store it.  Now as a man who lived without much money, my first thought in storing money would have been putting it in the bank.  However how in the world would I look to the teller in trying to put 499 million dollars in the bank?

With that out of the question, I ask myself how would I store that much money?  The answer is simple.  Just go look at the Bill Gates and Warren Buffet's of the world and you'll see they put their money to work.  They store them in bonds, put them in stocks and so on.  They put their money to work, to bring in more money.  Guys like that grew up in rich families, so they know how to maintain their wealth.  Not only maintain, but grow it also, passing on the tradition to their children and grandchildren.  Poor families and lower income families don't know how to do that.  So when they strike gold, they give it back.

Yeah it's basically impossible to spend that much. Hypoithetically guess you could do it. Clubs will usually have bottles of champagne available for like $3,000. So buy 200 bottles of that and buy 10,000 lapdances at $20 a pop. add in 20% tip and you are at a million.

 

Just don't see it

    • In all honesty, outside of the Saints games, I don't think we will be favored in any remaining game (unless Tampa is playing their backups against us week 18)
    • Rough back half of the schedule. NFC West looks like the best division (up there with NFC North), Tampa has been very good this year (despite their injuries), and I can't remember the last time we swept the season series with Atl (easily more than 10 years). I think we go 8-9 - beat the Saints twice and go 1-1 against the Bucs.
    • Quoted rom one of the many Bryce threads... Wanted to reply to this, but since my answer turned into a go route (i.e. went long) I thought I'd put it in a separate thread. So here's my take on the names mentioned above...and a few others. ... Lance was a prototypical "take an athlete and teach him to play quarterback" example who now serves as an example of why that's a bad idea. Worth remembering that Lance was given to a coach heralded as a QB guru with a friendly system. In the end though, even that potentially ideal situation wasn't enough. And the fact those events were followed up by said guru taking his team to the Super Bowl with a QB who went undrafted helps bolster the folly.of that approach. But then you have Wilson, an actual quarterback with off the charts passing skill. This guy's sure to succeed, right? Well...wrong, which demonstrates that even the right skill set doesn't guarantee success.  Could Wilson have succeeded in a better situation under better coaching? Unknown, but it's a question I find myself asking a lot. (See also: Levis, Will) Rosen falls into the Ryan Leaf / Ryan Mallet category, i.e. don't hand the keys to your billion dollar franchise over to a dickhead. Character matters, and not strictly in the 'upright citizen vs thuggish criminal ' way. (I could add maybe don't draft guys with the first name 'Ryan' unless they went to Harvard, and even then only in the 7th round) Darnold is another guy who likely could have benefited from a better situation / coaching (see also Carr: David). Heck, it also might have helped to send him to The Wizard and have him ask for "da noiv", or perhaps to Egon Spengler and company to chase away any and all "ghosts". Sending him to Matt Rhule? 😬 Yeah...definitely not the answer 😕 But hey, at least he's doing better now. (ttill playoff time, anyway) Mind you, Drew Brees does serve as proof that guys who land in less than ideal - or just flat out lousy - situations early on can indeed resurrect their careers later on in better surroundings. Will Darnold go that far? Unknown, but we do know it's possible. Kenny Pickett (also known by the X-Men moniker 'Littlehand') is that proverbial great college quarterback who for one reason or another just doesn't cut it in the pros.  (gotta say, feels like the past several drafts have put forth a lot of that particular QB archetype) Mac Jones could arguably carry this label as well, though I'm waiting to see how things play out in San Francisco. For now, Jones might be a better example of why you should always be cautious and skeptical of guys from certain systems. Justin Fields is a cell in that spreadsheet column, as is Kyler Murray. Now I'm sure someone here will mention another certain quarterback we're all quite familiar with as a prime example of this subset too 😐 Fair point, though I think he, Murray and Tagovailoa work better under the heading of "Davids". What's a David? It's a guy you send to battle against a "Goliath". And by all means, bet on that guy if he's a shepherd.  If he's a quarterback, though? 🤔 Root for him, encourage him, appreciate his courage and be inspired by him... ...but don't draft him. The return on investment might be a great story, but it's not likely to be one that involves championships and rings. ... Bottom Line? You've no doubt heard the saying "this ain't rocket science".  Well, I'd argue saying "this ain't quarterback evaluation" might truly make a better negative metaphorical comparison. At least with rocket science, it's science. You're working with things that have some level of consistency, even predictability. Stuff like chemistry, physics, metallurgy, etc. Things that have rules. Human beings?  Specifically young male athletes with competing amounts of ego and testosterone, who've generally been heavily catered to a lot of their lives, and have now been handed large sums money and a portal to fame... Yeah, good luck with that  Heck, you might get better odds buying a Powerball ticket, or perhaps playing a roulette wheel at a Vegas casino 😖 (gambling involves risk; please play responsibility; for help with gambling addiction call the Gambling Hotline at 1-800-522-4700)
