Today at 45 years old he’s with around 150k at best. That is the REAL world whether you like it or not.

Some of these players come from families that never saw 6 figure income before them and won’t see it after. They are the only shot at generations not needing a scholarship for an education. You might be angry about them getting what they can when they can but I’m not.
Looks like you’re more of a fan of celebrity financial independence, and less of a fan of BEAST MODE FOOTBALL. We’re different, but if that’s the prevailing trend, game has indeed changed.

Bro, you're starting to sound like someone jealous of celebrity financial independence and I don't think that's who you are.

If wanting to see multi millionaires EARN their money ON THE FIELD, and being disappointed when they don’t, makes me “jealous”, That’s fine. I work hard for mine.

Looks like you.. umm...make **** up as you go. have system 1 cognitive bindless.. do not understand what I have said.

It is the players obligation to go after every dollar he can using every tactic he can because Loomis is going to take away every dollar he can using every tactic he can. Some people can not separate the entertainment industry side from the business side.

Football as a sport ends in college probably high school.

...even beating on innocent people and subsequently charged with assault and battery. give me a break. AK is a thug and should not even be playing in the NFL.

1. That is a deflection.
2. Thug - (noun) a violent, aggressive person, especially one who is a criminal. ("especially" does not denote a requirement).

Take all the thugs (violent and aggressive players) off the field and you may.. may.. be able to put 11 kickers on the field, providing they play both ways.. Which episode of The Twilight Zone do you live in? Football is a gladiator sport
I do not give two sh**s whether you like him or not, I don't know the man to like or dislike him. What I do know is that the league created and supports the situation where players do what he is doing. Don't like it... Go visit RG.

Haters are going to hate, Oak, and trolls are going to troll. They show up for one reason and one reason alone and that's to fish for response. The trolls need fed to survive. They're totally full of crap from beginning to end.

uh... no. Facts are hard to dispute, especially for you. And if you believe what you posted, then don't respond. truth and facts hurt sometimes.
