Know a girl who worked at Sullivans, and I can vouch for this claim on MJ.

Heard he isn't a good tipper. The story I heard was he had a dinner event and left like $150 on a 5K check.

I waited on Jonathon Stewart like 2 years ago and he left me $1 on a $20 check. meh.

Ok nobody likes a cheap bastard but how much do u guys think a person should get for pouring drinks and picking up empty plates? Especially at a high end restaurant where the bill is 250 for steak u can get at Food Lion for 25 dollar if the marble looks great?

if you can't afford to tip properly, then maybe you should go to food lion.

If you can't afford to tip properly or are just too much of a cheap ass you shouldn't go out to eat. That's how these people live, they make 2.15 an hr otherwise. The restaurants are required by law to compensate up to minimum wage if their tips don't cover it in a night, but who can really live on minimum wage?

I usually tip good but I would prefer not to.

So we all demand societal change but we can't change this archaic waiter-tip thing, huh?

If you think that you should get paid more money, then maybe you should go into a career where you get a flat wage. Just because someone made up that tipping 20% bullpoo doesn't mean the world has to go by it. If I want to go eat somewhere I should be able to do it without having to go broke from paying for food, gas, and a waiter.

and that whole "you're hiring the waiter" thing is bullpoo. If it was up to me I'd just assume walk up to the window and get the food and drinks myself. But of course, that's never an option.

Actually just walking up to a window is an option. It is called FAST FOOD. Servers make 2.14 an HOUR. So if they have to deal with a non tipping cheapskate for an hour they are basically making less than minimum wage.

Also many seem to want to look down their noses at servers and tell them to get a "real" job = flat wage. BUT the fact is if you want good service you may want to pay for it. You get what you pay for and if you don't tip i would be careful not to go to the same restaurant too many times cause you will eventually be blacklisted and will not get good service. One drink no refills, no condiments unless you count the secret sauce, and basically being ignored.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ

      I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......

      I think google is confusing signing bonus with guaranteed money. If you get a guarantee of say $10 million, it doesn’t matter if the signing bonus is $5 or $8 million, it’s the $10 million number that affects the cap, as the signing bonus is always just a portion of the guaranteed money anyways. And again, I’ll admit I’m not 100% sure about it, but I’m pretty sure it is the case.
