I knew Jamarcus Russell lost weight.. But...

[RoaringRiot]

I don't think the guy is denying that he had issues. I think he's asking for (and proving why he deserves) a second chance.

It's amazing what some people will do for a kit kat bar.

Wow. Didnt realize he looked this good (in a non gay way ofcourse)

 Thanks for pointing out that you meant this in a non gay way.  I initially assumed you had a JR poster on the ceiling above your bed.

He will never be a leader of men.

Did he rent that car at the same place Hernandez did?

Can't be a rental, look at those bald tires on his want to be fly ride.

[YOLO!]

Kudos to him. Hopefully the guy can keep it together and restore his career.

Yeah I agree everyone deserves a 2nd chance.

So, as of 3 months ago he was considerably overweight but now we feel he has conquered his laziness?

We still don't know if he is broke or not.

 

I would be really curious to hear where the money went if he is broke.

Tiger blood transfusions!

For the League minimum, if Carolina brought him in and signed him to replace Jimmy, I'd be OK with that.  He certainly can hold a clipboard as well as Pickles, and we know he can out-throw him.

Many formal nfl players are now broke. It didn't stop them from having successful careers.

I know this is a bit old, but we are talking about $38 million.  The number of rookies who were given that amount of money is less than 5 players.  How many do you know that BLEW $5 million per year until they were broke?

Supporting your point, MOST NFL players who make over $10 million (something like 80%) are broke within 3 years of playing.
