If you're a high profile athlete and want a social media presence, hire a PR form to manage it and don't even have access to the login info. Don't even look at it. Just let the PR firm do its job.

 

could say the same for politicians or really any high profile person. world would be a much better place without everyone shouting to the world every thought they have.

Between this and not getting proper representation for his contract negotiations, Jackson seems to make a lot of really head scratcher moves off the field.  

 

Yeah, you're talking about a 9 figure contract with lots of complicated clauses, structuring, guaranteed money, incentives, possible outs, etc. Thinking you can handle that unless that's what you actually do for a living with ample experience is just nuts. Surely he's going to have at least a contract attorney look over any deal he negotiated before he puts ink to paper.

Agreed. If I was any type of public figure I'd have a firm managing my social media. Hell, I have a small business and pay someone to handle it. I don't even look at it.

I'd assume there are agents that are treating him like Nick Saban's treats his recruits. Free poo to get him to sign on. I can imagine firms like IMG are just throwing him free advice and services to navigate this whole thing in hopes that Lamar would hire them. There is no way he is truly doing this alone.

Jackson has been a "good" qb in his years so far.  Not great like a lot of people want to think by his highlight plays.  If you just look at his statistics against good teams and in the playoffs; they are very bad.   He has been a qb that feasts on bad teams mostly at this point in his career so far.

The guy won an MVP. Now the playoffs thing? Yeah, you got a point there. He's had some real stinkers in the playoffs.

And don't respond to a random fan that nobody's ever heard of.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      Not totally inaccurate, haha Except that kid wasn't as excited as I was.  I was yelling louder, and more, and running around the room in circles until I almost passed out from exhausting and was trying to catch my breath for a good 10 minutes because I'm way too old to be doing that, LOLOL Oh, and I tweaked a muscle in my shoulder from all the fist pumping I was doing too. For as awesome as that pick was for me, it really screwed me up for a few days between my shoulder and lost voice (Wrexham securing back-to-back-to-back promotions Saturday afternoon contributed to that though too).

      Getting Pierce jr isn’t forfeiting the pick they just had 2 1sts this year.

      Full disclosure and the real reason.... I'll be seeing my Nephew in basically one month from today, and while I've gotten him stuff from my other teams the past year, I hadn't been willing to saddle him with Panthers stuff yet, that's now changed lol. So if the jersey would get to me before I see him, I'd get that and him his first Panthers onesie/shirt so I can get a picture of us together in them. If it wouldn't get to me by then, I'd just wait to get the one I prefer.  So yea, my rush is really just about trying to get a picture of myself in it with my Nephew in Panthers gear too.
