Where's he going?

What are his future plans?

I have no opinion other than the fact that it's weird that someone would start this thread in the middle of the biggest football game of the year.  There's 8 months of off-season after this.

I don't know if it's a "fact" but I agree it's weird to start this thread now.  

Ok, you are right I worded that wrong .  The fact is that I find it weird.  I agree that the weirdness is up for debate, but I don't give a shit enough to debate it. 

Back on track: cowboys.  Do it Jerry.

Fact: won't happen.

South Austin's mom's house.

Your mom's house.

the biggest football game of the year took place a few weeks back.  LSU won.

I assume he was cut?

IIRC, his contract expired.   He didn't even return to DC.  He had cleaned out his locker, said goodbye to his teammates, and took his final physical in the locker room in Dallas after the last game.

I know, I'm just messing with you. 

Now how do you get -88 rep when you have a name like Jett Rink?

He’s done. 

I hope so.  He's made a ton of dough, he's secured a pension.  He's got a hot (stupid) wife (with a big mouth).  

Enjoy life Colt.  Don't get your brains pulverized. 

Silly me, I thought the most important game of the year was in the Cotton Bowl in October.

I expect he'll ascend in to Heaven on a fiery chariot.

Yep he got full pension this year, and won’t be earning any higher money to increase that, so unless he has just wasted all the money he’s earned (I doubt it) he should just cash it in and come back home.

Ok, I guess I was assuming the viewer numbers for the super bowl was/will be significantly higher than the NCG, but I'll wait until the game is over.  Also, don't care, I won't be looking up those stats.

I’ll guess retirement and real estate 

also, he’ll never have to pay for a meal or drink in Austin again

Owning a ton of Dunkin' Donuts franchises is going to keep him busy - not a bad gig if you ask me.

Bring more Dunkin donuts to austin!
Although that did autocorrect to Dublin donuts...might be something there.

Dr. Pepper flavored donuts might be something I would try.

So McCoy has made roughly $22million in earnings if I’m piecing things together correctly. Say he’s pulled in another $1million in endorsements as a floor. He plays another 2 years as a backup at $2/year and I’m not sure that trade works in his favor. That’s $2.6-ish after taxes versus long term health implications. If the dude has $10 million in the bank, he could be making $500k conservatively each year, plus earnings for other work. I’d be done with the grind, personally.

Maybe he can work on the golf course with John Mackovic

Probably Westlake or Tarrytown. Maybe on Lake Austin.

An Irish Car Bomb donut would be a great way to get your day started

I would think he'd like to go into coaching.  But that could be tough if they want to stay in Southwest Austin.

Keeping your DD franchises can be a lot of work.

Made with real sugar instead of HFCS.

I know the super bowl is kinda like an industry convention for players, so I thought Colt might be out and about.  Just wanted to know if y'all had any insights.  Me, I hope he gets out. 

  • 1 month later...

Was hoping Patriots. 

Either way, make that $ Colt! 

(fuck you Browns for almost getting him killed)

Fuck yeah Colt!  Hook 'em.  Beat the fuck outta that shit organization you just got out of twice a year!

Just dropping this here:

I was thinking whisky donuts. Not flavored though. Just some irish whisky next to a few donuts.

Does he still get paid if there’s no season?
They just did a new CBA. No idea. MLB players are currently getting $1100 per week from the union, or at least that is what I heard on barstool radio. Not sure of hockey or nba.

Sounds like the MLS lawyers are going to all get fired.

The MLS owners might not even notice the players' salaries coming out of their bank accounts.

I'm guessing that Garrett sees a lot of himself in Colt. Less red hair, more Jesus, but pretty similar approach to the game.
