Former Raiders' QB is losing his home to foreclosure.
JaMarcus Russell's return to greatness isn't going as well as planned... The former No. 1 pick of the Oakland Raiders...
...
Russell returned to his native Alabama after being released by the Raiders in 2009. His attempts to return to the NFL have been slowed down by charges that Russell was illegally sipping "purple drank."
The Raiders signed Russell to a six-year contract worth up to $68 million, with $31.5 million guaranteed. But in true Al Davis fashion, the team is trying to recuperate some of that signing bonus.

Yes.
But I prefer the Royale with Cheese...
Derek Jeters Tampa house.
Didn’t Deon Sanders have a neon gate on his Dallas area home? Classy...
But Everclear DOES have a distinct flavor: It's called "My God that BURNS!"
And, while its distinct odor: "those tacos I ate last night... ...oh yeah, and hint of pizza", and its unique color: "Ralph Brown", are not usually noticeable until AFTER a certain quantity of the spirits have been consumed, they are certainly NOT lacking.
They refer to it by different names depending on the color of the drink - various things added or types of cough syrup.
So we call all thank a rapper when we have to wait in line to purchase good cough syrup for our children because it has been abused by idiots
I will not sip it with any crank.
I will not sip it even if I have to walk a plank.
exactly! except I said WTF is purple drank. Shame on me, I know.
One of the biggest POS the NFL has produced imho. . .
I had to look it up. It’s prescription strength cough syrup, containing one or more narcotics—codeine, hydrocodone, etc. Mix it with Sprite and candy, and yum, you be ready fo some hip hop clubbin.

Purple drank is a slang term for a recreational drug popular in the hip hop community in the southern United States, originating in Houston, Texas. Its main ingredient is prescription-strength cough syrup containing codeine and promethazine.
Cough syrup is typically mixed with ingredients such as Sprite soft drink or Mountain Dew and pieces of Jolly Rancher candy. The purplish hue of purple drank comes from dyes in the cough syrup.
The most popular type of codeine syrup is promethazine-codeine, a prescription cough syrup. The active ingredients are codeine, a narcotic, and the antihistamine medication promethazine. When taken in large quantities, both medications can lead to sedation and altered levels of consciousness.
