The disgraced NFL star has lost millions in endorsement deals and will lose the final $71 million of his Falcons contract. He also might have to repay the team nearly $20 million, and he's being sued by three banks for allegedly defaulting on nearly $6 million in loans.

I knew his financial situation was a bit bleak now, but I didn't know it was this dire. He and his brother both really blew it by sticking with the ghetto culture when there was no longer any reason to. Sad, but it was entirely their own doing.

Well said, post #16. A lot of these athletes go into professional sports and try to “keep it real” by hanging out with the losers they grew up with. If I would have made it big in sports, I would have promptly told my “friends” to get bent.
