bron is my guy, i just find it corny to use that poverty card

he got a 100 million dollars at 18 and i doubt he was piss poor before that.

Bron was recruited since 8th grade. He was driving an hummer to high school :heh:


Dude has had it laid out for him since he was 11. You know boosters were giving him cash and shyt too
You're both quite spectacularly missing the point.

Why risk concussions for like 90 million over a decade - long career when you can shoot 3s and get that same amount in 1 contract or get 200 million to throw a ball/swing a bat? :manny:
Football has more players, and a higher turnover rate. Getting the minimum for just one year, is a half a lifetime worth's of money for most

There is no "poverty card" :snoop:

Dude was legit born into poverty and that shaped his worldview, while his children were born into wealth. There's no conceit in what he's saying or how he's saying it.

"Better and more options" = no poverty, - you're coming at this sideways for no reason.

Are you stupid, Bron is basically saying he played sports because he had to, his parents weren't rich

his kids don't have to play sports to get wealthy that's all he was saying
