Johnny F. Football Selling Photos/Selfies in Shopping Center

Postby Stallion » Thu Jan 12, 2017 3:18 pm

he got the big money contract after Sophomore year and is now broke a couple of years later just like about 78% of NFL athletes. Blew off College never bothering to set foot on campus during entire spring term. Good career choices or jack-wad?

If he had kept his nose clean, shown more aggie love then he could have had apost NFL career playing golf with Aggies and attending TAMU fund raisers. Could have made a nice living just being a professional aggie.

But no... Decides to be a professional idiot and will now sink into oblivion.

I have actually heard of people willing to pay the $99 for his autograph because they are afraid he might not be alive in a few years. What a sad story.

I saw that he will be between th Bass Pro Shops and Marshalls... he has really gone downhill fast. My friends saw him at a party recently and said he weighed 150 lbs.

Are the Ags still adding his name to Kyle Field? Seems appropriate.

Why not? Picture of yourself with the biggest bust and flame out since Richard Nixon.

If you are from SMU, you can always pull the picture up on your phone when talking to an A&M guy bragging on his team.

If you are an Aggie, it would be priceless in your golden years, telling people you remember when.

What's the over and under for when and for how much Johnny F. sells his Heisman?

After reading what I wrote, the kidding was over the top. Best of luck to JF and all student athletes struggling after college careers are over.

Johnny Football is not broke. His family is rather well off. Along with his great talent went an entitlement ego that was just as formidable. Coaches routinely found him lazy in preparation, and not focused. This from an Aggie team mate.

Talent will get you a long way, but it will not carry you past your ability. Johnny hit the wall in Cleveland, and instead of adapting and overcoming, he simply reverted back to that nature that had been successful before...being JF. It has not worked.

Money will not be an issue, either short term or long term. There is still a ' spare [deleted]' as Jimmy Stewart said in Shenandoah that is available from family. As long as this is the case, the lifestyle will continue.

Let's hope that family indeed DOES step out of the financial/enabling picture, so Mr Manziel will get the help that can save his life.

He was spending at an incredible rate. His wealth is significant but you can't blow millions of dollars on non-income producing assets and hope that it lasts for 60 years. It doesn't. Selling photos at the mall doesn't smell of deep pockets to me.

His Dad probably has him on an allowance and he needs some extra cash

Having a lot of money in Tyler doesn't mean you can roll around New York and LA renting expensive houses and buying your friends cars and paying the bar tab every night.
