Good for him. He made ALOT of money. He got to play the sport he loved at the highest level. And now he found something that he loves to do after the game. And he gives back to people in a huge way.

How can anyone say this is a loss? Money isn't the only currency in the world.

And how can anybody clown this dude when people posting in this thread probably won't make $25 million in their entire life? :why:

Peace

Only on the coli is doing something you love and helping others frowned upon. Some of you need dads. Some of you should try volunteering one day so you could experience the gratitude and happiness you feel knowing you were able to help another man. :snoop:
:salute:To him for doing something unselfish.

Potential parkinsons? Thats what we doing, leaving multi-million dollar jobs because of what might potentially happen??? shyt ppl get parkinsons everyday b :manny:

But i disgress, i didn't hear him say thats the reason he quit anyway. He's doing it on seemingly religious grounds and so my statement stands, he couldn't have played football for the money and still farmed in the off-season? Or even hired ppl to do it during the season and still helped tons of ppl both with the food and with his money?

SMDH, i hate these type of stories that seem to undervalue the importance of money in general but shytloads of money in specific. I want to see how this worked out for him in 30 years.

:why:

He's a grown ass man and can do what he wants with HIS life and HIS money. What grounds do you have to stand on to chastise him for not doing both? :mindblown:

Thats cool. I want a simple life one day too. But at like 50 not 30.

And if he really wanted to help people he should invest that money and make some moves. HE could bring in a big return on 25 million and that would feed a lot more poor people then his farm.

:snoop:

Coli investment bankers....if he really wanted to help people? he is.

How are you able to post and be a successful investment banker at the same time breh?
Are you made cuz you're broke? Lol.

I've never claimed to be an investment banker. I don't even know what an investment banker is. :pachaha:

Get a life. What are you even trying to argue about right now? :dwillhuh:

I say he could feed more people if he invested that money and gave them the return. And this makes you upset:what:

If you disagree go disagree. There is no discussion to be had on this topic. Shwerve.
