The NFL is coming to Los Angeles soon, no matter what Oaklanders, St. Louisans, San Diegans, or local labor groups have to say about it. The sheer amount of money behind the proposed moves of one or all of the Rams, Chargers, or Raiders, coupled with the NFL’s desire to break into the country’s #2 market means something is going to happen.
Potential stadiums in Carson and Inglewood have both been approved by their respective local governments, and now comes the hard part; getting them paid for. The Carson stadium, which will most likely hold the Raiders and the Chargers, will cost $1.65 billion. This would put it up with MetLife Stadium and the Tokyo National Olympic Stadium as one of the most expensive stadia in the world. The NFL has a typically nefarious plan to do help get the cash together, which involves asking the NFLPA to help out.
According to a report from Bloomberg Business, it is not atypical for the NFLPA to assume some of the cost. Except in this case, all the NFLPA’s current credits for stadium projects have been used up until 2020. That’s too long for the NFL to wait. Here’s more, from the report:Still, two executives from NFL teams said the credit could be worth about $300 million if two teams share the stadium. The executives requested anonymity because the league hasn’t commented on talks with the players association.Players, at least according to their union reps, see this as a potential benefit, as well as an investment:
Whatever the amount, it would be excluded from the revenue calculation that determines the salary cap. The NFL generates more than $12 billion in annual revenue.
A clause in the collective bargaining agreement says the league, with regards to any stadium project in the Los Angeles area, can elect not to include it in the calculation of the Stadium Credit Threshold. If the players decline to approve a stadium credit, any new facility would have to be financed with public and private money, or with a loan from the NFL.“When we signed the deal in 2011, we considered our role in growing the game and we review every investment opportunity and proposal carefully,” union spokesman George Atallah said.The Davis and Spanos families, who own the Raiders and Chargers respectively, are each worth over a billion, and their franchises themselves are worth a combined $2.96 billion, They are also asking the public, which did not vote on the stadium plan, to pay for a chunk of it too, as is custom for these greedy bastards.
Former Raiders Chief Executive Officer Amy Trask said the players have a good incentive to approve the credit. New facilities generate more revenue, which in turn raises the league-wide team salary cap.
Damn, John Daly has slim fast like Tommy Lasorda! And why in the hell didn't Johnny Manziel start on Sunday?! That was a travesty, especially after how well he played last week, and Cleveland losing is the reason I loss (again) our football pool. Two out of the first three weeks I have lost out because of one damn game! McCown made Oakland's pass rush look like the Fearsome Foursome.
LOL@Check Two hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Check Two, why did Antonio Cromartie's wife get pulled over by the cops? What team does Antonio play for? Browns are pathetic because they should've won. LOL@Chicago got shut out by Seattle and the 49ers got punished by Arizona hahahahahahahahahaha. Who won Denver and Detroit game? I'm surprised Atlanta and Cincinnati are undefeated. I'm surprised Baltimore is 0-3 because I expected the Browns to be 0-3 LOL. I bet when the season is over, the Browns will be at the bottom of the division like they always are hahahahahahahaha.
hahaha...this kid tells it how it is regardless of who his pops is!

he got caught for that second one:
https://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media...5561841188.jpg
LOL@some guy named J dissing Antonio Cromartie saying he's with 2 of his 15 kids and he dissed Geno Smith hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
J is the son of the Jets coach, charles.
I didn't know that. The Jets finally lost to Philadelphia. It would've been a surprise if the Jets had won and they would've been 3-0.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Pittsburgh should've won last night and their kicker sucks because he missed 2 field goals in the 4th quarter that could've helped them win.
Vicks sucks also, that doesn't help.
True hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Michael Vick and Pittsburgh's coach Mike Tomlin went to the same high school in Virginia. That might be part of the reason Pittsburgh signed Vick. Pittsburgh had a chance to win in the 4th quarter and the kicker had a chance to kick a field goal that was a 50 yarder but I guess since he had missed 2 earlier field goals in the 4th, Mike Tomlin decided not to let him kick a 3rd field goal hahahahahahahaha. Mike obviously didn't have any confidence in him to kick a 3rd field goal and their running back didn't run the ball that much in the 4th which Mike got criticized about on Sportscenter today.

1. How big of a problem are groupies?
"You really have to protect yourself. Now, not every baby mama is a groupie, but you see a lot of women seeking the benefits of NFL players. I try to be fair that women are naturally attracted to successful men and that [includes] athletes. But now with groupies, it’s a bigger beast." - An NFC South Pro Bowler
"A big problem because a lot of guys that never really had ‘em before have ‘em now, and they don’t now how to act with the new attention. Groupies are really bad because they destroy homes. A lot of these players are married with children. These groupies don’t give a fuck at all about a man being married. They just care about themselves and what they can get out the situation." - A free agent safety
"Not a problem unless you let them be a problem." - One of the best defensive tackles in the game
2. What city has the most?
"New York, L.A., Miami, Houston, Vegas and wherever the big events are." - A cornerback for a team on the East Coast
"Miami, L.A. and Phoenix." - An East Coast Pro Bowler
"Dallas, Houston…especially Atlanta, and Jacksonville has them too. The women in Puerto Rico and Brazil are easy but they really could care less that you play in the NFL. They just know that you’re from out of town and want to show you a good time." - A free agent safety
3. What city has the least?
"I don’t know. They are everywhere really. If I had to pick a city, I’d say Buffalo." - NFC East Pro Bowler
"Any city without a pro team." - An NFC South Pro Bowler
4. What city has the hottest groupies?
"Houston, L.A. and Miami." - An NFC South Linebacker
"You can never go wrong with Atlanta, and Miami would be a close second." - State of Florida lineman
"Phoenix for sure." - A current Pro Bowler and Super Bowl champion
5. What city has the ugliest groupies?
"Since they are small towns, Buffalo or Green Bay. They may have some diamonds in the rough though." - AFC East rookie
6. What's the age of the oldest groupie that's approached you?
"About 40." - NFC South cornerback
"48." - East Coast offensive tackle
"She looked 50, but I don’t know." - AFC North rookie
7. What's the age of the youngest groupie that's approached you?
"The youngest that they can get in the club." - NFC defensive back
"I hope she was 18. She kept asking for my number, and I sad cut it out!" - Rookie, 2nd round pick
"High school age, it was crazy. I ran from that girl." - NFC South linebacker
8. Of the groupies that you've seen, what race are most of them?
"Black, but that’s just the environments I’m in. I hear other teammates talk about white girls and Latino girls being just as bad." - An anonymous #57
9. What's the most money you've spent on a groupie at one time?
"None…they’re groupies. You don’t have to spend money on ‘em." - Free agent free safety
"This girl wasn’t a groupie, but a chick I was dating. Me and her went to hang out and it was $500 times 2 for travel, $300 for food, throw away money about $200, hotel about $800 and that’s $2300 for a three-day weekend. Now imagine if you have a groupie, and y’all are staying in the Fontainebleau in Miami and hitting clubs and buying tables. You can easily spend $5K without blinking." - NFC offensive guard
10. What hotels are the easiest to sneak them in on the road?
"Any hotel, you just have to do it right. The floor that the players are on has security, so a lot of times players just get a room in the same hotel on a regular floor." - Former NFC East safety
11. How do they get in contact with you?
"Social media mostly. They also give you the groupie stare at the club too. Just stare at yo’ ass until you speak to them. Be hypnotizing guys [laughs]." - NFL Pro Bowl lineman
"They just stare at us when we’re in the club. Like deliberately. It’s like you’re going to the dog pound, and they’re just waiting to get chosen. They will literally stare at you in VIP until you ask them if they want to come to VIP." - An anonymous #24
"Mainly in the clubs. Anytime there is a big event like a Super Bowl or All-Star weekend, they are around. They make sure to get your attention by the way they dress or they’ll approach you. I’ve had girls slip their number in my pocket before. When they come up to me, they’ll say they're your biggest fan or 'I can tell you play football by the way you’re built.'" - Former NFC East safety
"You’ll see them digging you just by eye contact, and most guys go after those girls. A woman can’t make a man want her. A groupie is just an easy opportunity. They just be thirsty. Then you have the ones who play like they don’t know who you are. They know the rosters and they do their homework. Heck, she’s not bright if she hasn’t done her homework." - An anonymous #96
"I’ve had a waitress see that I’m big by my size. Once she took my credit card for the meal, she remembered my name or wrote it down or whatever and gave me my receipt. Within five minutes of leaving the restaurant, I get hit up on Twitter, and it’s her with a nude twitpic talking bout 'This is what I look like fresh out the shower after work.'" - An anonymous #75
12. What's the craziest groupie story that's happened to you?
"In L.A. this chick domed me and my partners up. We left the room and our other homeboy went in to go fuck. We hear her moaning in the room, we’re laughing. And then all of a sudden we hear this weird noise. We thought she was choking him. We ran into the room to see what was going on, and it turns out that when he busted his nut, he threw up on her at the same time. Shit was hilarious and disgusting." - NFL Pro Bowl tackle
"A girl was waiting outside my house. I wasn’t answering her calls or texts. Then all of a sudden she just started knocking on my door. I called the cops. [Laughs.] She knew I was inside, but I never came to the door because I had company. The police were calling her name outside and everything, talking about '[Player's name] called us and told us you were making a disturbance.' And then she’s like, 'Oh, so HE IS HOME!' really loud. It was funny." - Pro Bowl defensive lineman
"I was at a DC club with a couple well-known guys. We’re at the table chilling, and two girls walk up to us. One of them was playing shy, and the other just came right out and said whoever gets up first is coming home with me tonight. No one got up, we just looked at her and busted out laughing." - NFL Free Agent defensive back
"I met a girl on Twitter from Texas. She hit me up and asked me to mentor some kids. I told her I don’t live in Texas but I’ll do it in the offseason, which was around the corner. We exchange numbers, and I get a picture from her the next day. She says it was an accident and she meant to send it to her brother. It was a regular pic, I told her she looked nice. I was just being cordial, no flirting or nothing. We’re just talking casually, and then she hits me the next day and says, 'If you liked yesterday’s pic, you’re going to love this one'…she was ass naked! All of a sudden, she wants to come to the city I play in and visit me, etc. I’m not biting though.
"We continued to talk for about two weeks and shit's just not adding up. I looked at the people she followed and I swear everyone was in the NFL or NBA. I asked her if any of the guys ever helped her with her charity, and she said they all try to holla at her. I asked her why she still follows them then, and she said she loves sports and is a tomboy.
"I remember hearing about a little scam some groupies had going on, so I asked her to send me a pic, which she did. I sent her one back holding my cup and making a funny face. I asked her to send me a picture mocking the pose I just sent her. Guess what? She said her camera was broke. [Laughs.] I stopped talking to her.
"Maybe two weeks later, I’m talking to my teammate and he describes the exact same situation. I told him to let me see the pics, and the same girl sent him all the same pics she sent me. It didn’t make any sense, because what if I had flown her to my city? What was her explanation going to be for not looking the same in the pictures she sent me? Maybe she wanted to ask me for money and thought I’d give it to her, I don’t know. That’s the craziest thing that’s happened to me though as far as groupies go." - Pro Bowl NFC offensive lineman
13. What's the craziest groupie story you've heard about?
"We meet this one chick and chop it up with her in the lobby. She says she’s down to suck us all up. Me and my homeboy stay down in the lobby at the bar and my other friend goes up to the room with the girl. We get up there about 15 minutes later, and the girl is crying. My friend is cussing her out bad calling her all types of hoes. She sucked him up, but I have no idea why she was crying. My homeboy that was with me at the bar went up to her and was trying to get a blowjob and she said she didn’t want to do it. She put her hands back in her face. His dick was already out so he’s standing next to her and all of a sudden bust on her shoulder. She raises up and was like 'Are you serious?' and just lost it and started laughing actually. It was pretty funny." - Pro Bowl right tackle
"We were at the club one night. We had a table and there was a group of girls next to us at another table. There were about ten of them. Well my homeboy got to chopping it up and he fucked all 10 of them in one night. I have no clue how he did it." - #29 who shall remain nameless
One NFC South defender went on an interesting tangent…
"To be honest, I don’t believe in groupies. All women that look for a great opportunity, I believe that’s what a smart girl would do. As a successful man, you’re at the top of the food chain. From athletes, entertainers, Fortune 500 CEOs, surgeons, and all other successful men your money, power and status puts them at the top of the food chain. What women is not going to want to be with you?"
So they're taking him for his status rather than his character?
"Yes. The attraction is more powerful than his character. They let you get away with a lot more when you have status. Some guys like easy access to a chick. They don’t want to have to work for a good girl. They want a chick on the side, you know, a show piece. The mentality is, well I got the money, I got the cars, I got the house, I GOTTA have the girl. Most successful men have the highest divorce rate. Did you know the NFL divorce rate after two years after retirement is 80%. Once the money doesn’t flow like it used to and the attention is gone, they bounce. The chick you with wasn't with you for the right reasons. And she never had to really learn to love with you or live with you. An NFL player is always gone. Practice, games, charity events, you’re never there. You don’t have to be around someone 24/7, but after you retire, it changes. Once the stadium’s gone, the fame is gone....where’s my backbone? She gone!"
So if you don’t believe in groupies what would you call the women you just described?
"An opportunist in love with opportunity and not in love with the guy. It’s very rare to find a good chick. You’re not going to find them in the clubs. It has to be something that just happens. A lot of times dudes know these girls are up to no good, but they don’t want to pay attention to signs. Some of these dudes be falling in love with these girls, it’s crazy. But men are the same way. We want a chick we can brag about too. She wants to tell her friends my man is a millionaire, he does this or that. We want the same. You don’t want to tell your friends and family your girl works at Walmart or is the 7/11 clerk. With these women, you just have to be true to yourself."
Finally, a Pro Bowler’s parting words of wisdom:
"These groupies are a young man’s dream and a young man’s worst nightmare. You got money in your pockets for the first time. You’re getting $60k checks a week, and the finest women are at your feet willing to do anything you tell them. It’s so easy, but you just have to make sure you meet the right one and not meet the wrong one with wrong intentions."
IronSheik, thanks for posting that. That was a good read about groupies and I like the advice that a football player gave at the end about women. It's sad that so many hot women use football and basketball players for their money but that's the way it is. I still love cute women anyway.
--- Ex-football star Irving Fryar sentenced to 5 years in prison
Former NFL star Irving Fryar was sentenced Friday to five years in prison for his role in a mortgage scam.
His mother, Allene McGhee, was sentenced to three years' probation in the same case.
Both were convicted in August of applying for multiple mortgage loans in quick succession while using the same property as collateral.
Fryar, 53, was a star wide receiver at the University of Nebraska and played for the New England Patriots, the Miami Dolphins, the Philadelphia Eagles and the Washington Redskins.
Fryar's defense claimed he was the victim of a ''con artist'' who told him to carry out the scheme, a reference to William Barkdale. Barkdale pleaded guilty last year to a conspiracy charge and was the government's key witness at Fryar's trial. He is serving a 20-month prison sentence.
Fryar and McGhee, 74, rejected plea deals from state prosecutors that would have put him in jail for five years and her for three. They were found guilty of conspiracy and theft by deception charges.
Authorities said Fryar and his mother provided false wage information on her loan applications and claimed she earned thousands of dollars a month as an event coordinator for Fryar's church. Authorities said the pair made just a few payments on four of the loans and banks eventually wrote the loans off as losses.
''The fact that Fryar had the means to succeed and do good things and instead chose this criminal path makes his actions all the more reprehensible,'' Acting New Jersey Attorney General John Hoffman said in a statement Friday.
Fryar starred for Rancocas Valley High School in Mount Holly before playing at Nebraska and becoming the first overall pick in the 1984 NFL draft by the New England Patriots. He now is the pastor of a church he founded, and for a time he served as a high school football coach in Robbinsville.
I remember dirty knowlege saying this guy was going to be the next big thing. lol
---Former First-Rounder Josh Freeman Throws Interception, Fumbles Five Times in Fall experimental football league Debut
The "Fall Experimental Football League," an attempt at a feeder system for the NFL that is so financially strapped they had to cancel their championship game last year in what was their inaugural season. Now, in their second year, they've contracted from four teams to three, and their entire season schedule has a total of six games to be played in a pair of New York Minor League Baseball stadiums.
Enter: Josh Freeman, the No. 17 overall pick in the 2009 Draft, who previously started 59 games for the Buccaneers and one other one for the Vikings. In 2010, he led the Bucs to a 10-6 record with a QB rating of 95.9 (good for sixth in the league). In 2012, he finished in the top 10 in the NFL in both passing yards (4,065) and touchdowns (27). In 2015, he finds himself in the dreary hellhole that is the FXFL.
On Friday night Freeman had a wretched debut for some team called the Brooklyn Bolts. Against some other team called the Florida Blacktips, a squad with no set roster or home stadium, and only two players with experience in the NFL, Freeman went 9-of-16 through the air for 32 yards, a touchdown(!), a pick, and five fumbles. Afterward he declined to talk to reporters who were there for some reason.
It's a far fall for a guy who looked to have so much potential, and is still only 27-years-old. But hey, if they ever make a movie about this someday (which they won't) Friday's game would be the scene before the epic training montage that got his career back on track.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Cincinnati won, Carolina won, Falcons won, Giants won, Redskins won and Bears finally won hahahahahahahahahahahahaha. I guess Cincinnati might be for real since they're undefeated but i'll see what they do in the playoffs because they keep getting eliminated in the first round hahahahahahahaha. I'm surprised they haven't fired Marvin Lewis but he might be gone after this season if they don't do well in the playoffs. Tampa Bay only won one game right? Their quarterback hasn't been looking good.
Browns lost again hahahahahahahahahahaha. I'm surprised they didn't get blown out and the 49ers lost 17-3 at home to Green Bay. The 49ers are pathetic and i'm disappointed in them.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Clay Matthews made fun of him yesterday when he kissed his elbow LOL. Skip Bayless was making a big deal about Clay today on First Take talking about he shouldn't have been mocking Colin. Stephen Smith said he didn't have a problem with what Clay did.
No offensive line + No real offensive coordinator + no real coaching staff = Kraepershit playing
The Lions suck, they had the game basically won within the one yard line. What are people's opinions on the rules when a fumble goes out of the end zone like that?
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Detroit should've won and Calvin Johnson said he should've did a better job of holding on to the ball. I do think the guy for Seattle that knocked the ball outta bounds should've tried to grab the ball and run with it. Seattle got lucky on that because the ref should've given the ball back to Detroit.
Batting the ball out of the endzone = Penalty to team that bats the ball. Lions should have been given the ball 1st and goal.
You’re right Master Pai but I seriously doubt it would have mattered. Megatron, the best wideout in the league until AJ Green started ballin’ like Steve Alford at Indiana, with some of the biggest and strongest hands in all of sports gets stripped inches from the goal-line? On the next play Stafford would have probably thrown a pick 6. Detroit is cursed like the Chicago Cubs. They should hire Steve Bartman to be their mascot.
Houston’s defense is PATHETIC!!! They made three AARP members (Hasselbeck, Gore and Johnson) look like Roger Staubach, Gale Sayers and James Lofton. Did J.J. Watt even dress up? And if they’re double-teaming your two stud ends how about having your safeties or linebackers blitz from the middle or your cornerbacks blitz from each end, instead of just sending your front-four to put zero pressure on an old and non-mobile quarterback.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. What about the interception Brian Hoyer threw at the end? LOL. He should've thrown that outta bounds. He wonders why Cleveland got rid of him.
Hasselbeck is still playing solid and getting it done. Maybe a QB controversy is he continues playing better than Luck.
Stephen Smith was dissing Hasselbeck today talking about he's 40 years old and he isn't gonna continue to be the starter when Andrew Luck comes back LOL.
stephen is probably jealous of him.
Don't tell Stephen that hahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
Embattled NFL star Greg Hardy -- the guy who was suspended for allegedly beating up his girlfriend -- is bragging that he'll never get "played" by a woman ever again.
And he's making his point with the use of a stripper, gunfire sound effects and marijuana imagery in a rap video obtained by TMZ Sports.
We've learned ... the Dallas Cowboys defensive end made the video for "I'm Just Me" in late 2014 -- after he was convicted of beating up his GF, throwing her on a bed covered in assault rifles and threatening to kill her.
But during his time in NFL purgatory (he missed most of the 2014 season) Hardy hooked up with rapper Ja Alan to make a video in which Hardy declares to his critics, "What you see is what you get. I'm just me, I'm just real, and that's what I do."
Ja confirms the video was made in late 2014.
Right before Hardy spits his featured verse, a chorus of gunfire rings out. He then raps about women -- saying, "It'll be a cold day in hell before your girl tries to play me."
Interesting, considering Hardy's been under fire this week for several comments he made in which he objectified women (Gisele) and seemingly mocked his own court case by saying he plans to come out "guns blazing" when he returns to the field this week.
If Hardy was planning to fix his image -- this video sure as hell ain't gonna help.

LOL@IronSheik and Check Two hahahahahahahahahahahaha. Browns beat Baltimore LOL. I couldn't believe they got a win. Redskins and Falcons game was good and Kirk Cousins threw a interception in overtime and the guy for Atlanta that intercepted it scored a touchdown hahahahahahahahaha. Kirk is pitiful even though he had a good game. He just can't stop throwing interceptions LOL. Cincinnati beat Seattle and they're 5-0. I'll take Cincinnati for real when they do well in the playoffs because them being 5-0 don't mean nothing to me. Atlanta being undefeated don't mean nothing to me either because they haven't had playoff success for several years.
Mccown threw for 457 yards, I bet that shut up the fans chanting for the drug addict to come in.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. I'll see what Josh McGown does this weekend. Who the Browns playing this week? I was surprised the 49ers scored 27 points against the Giants because their offense has been terrible the last 2 games. Bears have won 2 in a row hahahahahaha. I can't believe the Chiefs are 1-4. I thought they were better than that.
Of the undefeated teams, would you say is the best? I'd go with the Patriots.
