My brother is deciding between Harvard Law and having around 240k of student loan debt after law school, and 40k a year scholarship at UVA, which is the number 6 law school in the country. I think NYU offered him 35k a year, but, the point is, the Idiot has no money, but hits up his big brother living on an E-6 income to buy him 2 suits at Brooks Brothers for his law school. That place is absolutely ridiculous. I am waiting until they have their annual buy 1 get 2 sale.

FKin lawyers. I bet Mara is a fkin lawyer too..........

BTW, I told him just go to mens warehouse and get a nice suit there. He told me that if you get a 180 on the LSAT, but go to Harvard or UVA law school wearing anything other than something from Brooks Brothers, you will be ridiculed to death..........

Based on this, John Mara shops at J.C.Penny's or whatever equivalent in NY. Let's ask CB59 to go there, lol.

F...Mara.

Re: Off Season Griffin Man Crush thread
 

Since the penalty was his idea, I dislike Jeff Lurie more than I dislike Mara (although I don't like Mara much). What a childish bitch he is. I hope that the Parakeets win zero games next year.

dudes, all this Mara talk is bummin me out. Need more Griffin mojo, less Mara muleheads:

Re: Off Season Griffin Man Crush thread
 

Uhhhh....wut?

“He can be just as good as Peyton,” Garcon said on NFL AM. “Peyton’s very skilled with his arm, Robert is skilled with his arm and his legs, so that’s what makes him more dynamic and more dangerous.”

Garcon said he sees a lot of the same traits between Manning and Griffin in the way they lead their teams.

“They are very similar,” Garcon said. “Quarterbacks are natural leaders, they take control of the huddle, their meetings, their teammates around them, communicate with all the players, from offensive linemen to receivers and running backs. They’re similar to each other. Robert’s going to be very good, and just as good as Peyton.”

Sonny Jurgensen wants RGIII to stay in the pocket.

Re: Off Season Griffin Man Crush thread
 

I don't Sonny. If he had stayed in the pocket last year, we would have won 7 games tops.

That's the impact his running skills have. He single-leggedly won some games...scoring, extending plays, running for crucial first downs.

Later in his career, sure...but we don't need to waste his talents when he's young. If we don't want to use him, we should not have drafted him. Unleash the beast. He'll get smarter and learn to protect himself with experience. He's not used to anyone catching up to him yet. In college...no one could catch him. In the NFL, few can, but some do get lucky.

I was following the twitter war as well. Geez...it's not like RGIII asked his fans to buy stuff off the registry for him. They did it because they love the guy. I understand the thought that he doesn't need people he doesn't know buying him stuff (probably doesn't even need people he does know buying him stuff) but he can't control what fans do. Maybe his intentions are to donate those gifts to charity and I'm sure he plans on doing so. Even if he keeps those gifts, his giving back to his fans by making the Washington Redskins, hopefully, a consistent playoff and eventual Super Bowl champion, so I couldn't ask for a better payback than that! (Of course I didn't buy anything off his registry, lol!)

Griffin is the man

Re: Off Season Griffin Man Crush thread
 

Dang, I didnt get him anything.

Re: Off Season Griffin Man Crush thread
 

Heck lets but together a few bucks for a little something, heck two nationally televised cowboy a$$ kickins should be worth a punch bowl, candle holders or something.

Re: Off Season Griffin Man Crush thread
 

Errr , I heard Jessica Simpson sent him some gifts too . He did help spank the Cowboys twice last year .... 2X :)

Re: Off Season Griffin Man Crush thread
 

Its a 2 sided argument.

On one end, I'm like why didn't RG3 send out a private wedding registry list that only people invited to his wedding could have gotten him? He is--to my knowledge-- the only athlete whose wedding registry was found online where fans have bought him gifts.

On the other end I'm like why did fans who aren't going to his wedding buying all the gifts that people who were invited to the wedding, were supposed to be getting him? You're not going, and you've probably never met RG3 before in your lives, and your going to buy him a gift? I know a counter point to what I'm saying is that "its the fans buying him a gift thanking him for being our QB" well you could also buy a gatorade, adidas socks, RG3 jersey, or many other products to show your thanks to him (that money goes back to him) Another counter argument I've heard is that these people who were buying him gifts are rich to begin with and probably already give to charity. The thing is you, nor I truly know that.

In summary, I'm annoyed that the fans went out to buy him all these gifts to a wedding they're not going to. If I'm someone who got invited to attend the wedding, I'd be pissed, because its like "Now what do I get this millionaire?".

You know its the off-season when a wedding registry is big controversial news.

Re: Off Season Griffin Man Crush thread
 

Anyone who makes this a controversy is either a) petty, or b) miserable. Griffin didn't publicize it, the couple shouldn't feel compelled to give it to charity (unless they are gonna throw some of it away), and those invited to their wedding will certainly figure out something to get them.

some people just can't let others enjoy their success.

It was not meant to be. Just a general statement towards anyone who feels it's wrong for the couple to receive the gifts, or the fans to buy the gifts.

Exactly.

For those who have an issue - why. do. you. care?!? How does it affect you in any way shape or form?

If you have time to be annoyed or offended by this you've got way too much time and far too few worries.

Ok, yeah, just to clarify here (or summarize my previous post) I'm not at all mad at RG3, I'm not mad at the fans, I'm just annoyed/irked/shrugged(?) that people who are not millionaires would buy someone they've never met before gifts to a wedding they aren't attending. Its the whole ''get in good with the jocks'' saying I used to hear a lot (or the whole rich get richer; poor get poorer). Its their money they can spend it to and on anyone who they please; I just think you're an idiot doing it for someone making millions more than you most likely are, and for invading someones privacy snooping around for their wedding registery; just because its on the internet and someone found it doesn't mean you have to buy them a gift.

And no, I'm not miserable, I have great life, and I'm not someone who thinks the Redskins should change their name.

from a wash po or some local article I read, the people they spoke with bought like $8 spoon holders or a chip and dip bowl as I joke to say "hey i bought black jesus a place mat!".

its kinda fun, no harm and this is coming from a guy who is always looking for a reason to bitch about something. like all the seemingly able-bodies people with handicap sticker badge things they hang from their rear-view mirror or the unreasonable price of RoFo's chicken and their refusal to give you price breaks when ordering large quantities of chicken.

Yeah. Someone told me its no different than buying his jersey, because either way I'm supporting him or making him richer; problem is that I don't buy jerseys that often, but thats a decent point.
