What's new

BYU is going to look so dumb on ESPN

I'm a Niners fan, so really, I hope he stays healthy (no more bonks to the head) and plays well.

He's taking a huge risk, though.
 
When you're living right and doing the right things on and off the field, and when you’re doing those things, things come together.

Somebody should remind Collie of this quote when he is 50 years old and pooping his pants while being spoonfed.

Nevermind, he won't remember saying it anyway.
 
You can tell football season is almost here when I see someone in BYU gear and want to punch them in the face, then pee on their car.
 
Nice. Having fun with a man's history of concussions.

Classy as usual, Lil Brother.

Can't wait to see you in Provo in a few weeks.
 
Speaking of BYU jerseys.... who is going to be #9 this year? Those authentic jerseys are selling for about $18 at Fanz right now.
 
Sorry guys, but if I had an opportunity to set up my kids and grandkids financially for their entire lives, I would do it.

Daniel sorenson might be number nine (one of the safeties)
I could be wrong though since I'm just going off memory

Why so eager? Last time Utah was in Provo your boys were on the wrong side of a 44 point *** kicking.

As far as the shot at Collie: Not mocking him because he gets concussions easily. Mocking him because he knows what's at stake and doesn't seem to care. It's his body and he can do what he likes with it, but that doesn't make it any less stupid.

I assume you are talking about Collie. He isn't doing that at all. The money he is making will not set up his kids and grand kids. Heck, there is a good chance it won't even set him up. He will make $715,000 this year. He has made just over 2 million with Indianapolis.

Lets say he gets injured again, and knocked senseless this year. He basically is selling his brain for $715,000. That is pennies. Lets say when he signed with the Colts and looked good, he bought a nice house and a nice car for him and the wife. $50,000 per car and $500,000 for the house. That's $600,000. Take out taxes from his earnings and that puts you at just under 1 million left from his first deal. Lets say they went on some vacations and lived on $100,000 per year since then. That means he now has less than $500,000 left.

Now, after he pays taxes on his new deal, he will have around $464,000. That means before he buys groceries, BEST CASE SCENARIO, he will have $964,000 in the bank. That isn't setting anyone up for life. If he wants to live off that for the rest of his life, that's less than $40,000 a year. Yikes.

I don't think this has anything to do with setting up grand kids and more to do with "oh ****, I'm broke now, the wife is used to living large, and I need money."

He is sacrificing decades of his for a piddly $700,000 grand. Crazy. I hope for his family he stays healthy.

I'd let someone pee on me for 300 dollars per day
