January 19, 20241 yr That’s crazyHe got the "last ride" part correct at least. I mean there's always arena, indoor football and whatever refried-tarded challenger to the NFL pops up every 3 years give or take, so maybe it won't be his last ride?

January 19, 20241 yr Damn... some of his new teammates would have been in the 4th or 5th grade his first year of college.To be fair, Brady played with guys that weren't even born when he signed his first contract.
January 19, 20241 yr I think they just get the lambo for weekends here and there. That’s not their everyday driver car. Guarantee the Lambos and Aston Martins arent hanging out in apartment parking lots where these guys live. Special occasions only, and only if cameras will be around. Take this fwiw, but I've heard that in most cases the car isn't even leased out to the player...they consider it a dealership demo and extended test drive sort of thing. Of course the dealership picks up the insurance tab, can you imagine the premium on an Aventador driven by an 18-19 yo male?
January 19, 20241 yr Popular Post Mike Farrell: Hey, Tide Fans. Suck it Up and Quit Whining Quote Alabama fans are funny. They’ve been funny since Nick Saban first began dominating college football recruiting around 2008. Complaints about too few five stars and so on were always comical. I call them “first-world problems,” and now they are at it again. Now that Bama fans are experiencing a coaching change for the first time in 17 years, all of a sudden, the world needs to change. Some are fanboys, some are ex-players and coaches, and some work for a business run by Alabama fans, but no matter where you come from, you’re bitter. Well, suck it up, buttercup. I grew to love Nick Saban. What he did at Alabama was amazing and unprecedented, and Alabama fans have had it good. In fact, they’ve been spoiled. No other fan base gets to complain about not winning a natty every year or that they only have six 5 stars, and it should be eight. It’s been an amazing run and has made them oblivious to the real world. And now they are facing adversity for the first time in ages. Waaaah. Deal with it. Alabama has had more than 20 players hit the transfer portal since Nick Saban retired, and 'Bama fans don’t know what to do with themselves. Suddenly, the 30-day window for players to transfer after a coach leaves or is fired is outrageous. The lack of loyalty from Bama players astonishes them, and all leaving are looking for a NIL bag of money. Isaiah Bond, Kadyn Proctor, Caleb Downs and others are all traitors and don’t have what it takes to be true Bama players. On and on it goes. Well, guess what? Dozens of football programs have dealt with the 30-day portal window and have seen a mass exodus of players. And they didn’t like it either. But they didn’t have six national titles and a juggernaut of a program to look back on for nearly two decades to help comfort their feelings. Alabama fans do. But, but, but - the timing of it all is terrible. I get it, and you’re right. But it’s only terrible because Alabama was shoved into the playoff over Florida State because of prestige and TV money, so you missed the portal recruitment window. And now your players are leaving and can’t be replaced because the window is closed. Had Alabama not been forced into the playoff, perhaps Saban would have stepped down in early December, and Bama would have had a fighting chance at roster management. But you can’t have it both ways. You can’t get your questionable playoff berth AND be active in the window. Were you crying when Florida State players were declaring for the NFL Draft, opting out, and hitting the portal in December? Nope. You didn’t care. The program that stole Jahmyr Gibbs and Tyler Steen from poverty programs is now upset that teams are taking their players? That’s life, deal with it. People will think I hate Alabama because of this article. It’s not true. What I can’t stand is rich people complaining about private plane flight delays or pretty people complaining about waiting in line at the club. Deal with it, life comes at you fast, and everyone deals with crap. Alabama will regress under Kalen DeBoer. There’s no other option. He won’t consistently win the SEC and national titles, and he won’t have No. 1 or No. 2 recruiting classes every year. And if this initial reaction to a transfer portal rule that has been in place for years is any indication, then Alabama fans are in for a rough time. Edited January 19, 20241 yr by satyanash

I looked it up back when Bijan got his Lambo, and I believe the owner's son was placed there as GM after having little-to-no other experience. So he may be a buffoon. But, as Wulaw points out, he's not a Longhorn fanboi. And business seems to be doing well. Also, they have an amazing Marketing Intern on staff.

If any of them low-rent future insurance salesmen had our number calling them, they'd answer in a heartbeat. I know a few of these incoming guys would have jumped at the opportunity to throw the Horns down during game week (or during the game if they held the brief lead), but when that phone starts ringing.................... we know who we are. And so do they. And they know that we know that they know. \m/ Embrace the hate. It’s only going to get worse.

You might be able to fine a 1/20 specialty model for a million. No dealership is going to give a collector’s item to a college kid. The cars they get are no where near that expensive. They’re probably weekend “rentals” they get access to

It has a lower ceiling and a lower floor. Two day one/two guys and JWhitt is a very good top of the room. Even at the bottom they may be better but who gives a damn about the #5/6/7 guys. Is it a good WR room? Absolutely. But better than last year? Not a fucking chance.

My company was looking into a corporate event that included test driving multiple exotic cars; however, we decided to do something else in the event that someone crashed an Aston Martin and totally fucks up their insurance.
