Cool motherfucker. He's doing some bull riding stuff. Does a hilarious Lou Holtz impersenation. Invited me out for beers tonight but got my bro's bachelor party. Told him to show up. He eats his steak well done. What the fuck?

War free lunches paid for by former pro athletes!

Is he still broke?

I didn't think I could hate you more. That's my favorite ND football player of all time. No, that's fucking cool man. His Holtz is spot on. If you see him again, ask him about some of the Miami games.

Also, about his steak, yeah. All the black dudes I know get their burgers and steaks well done.

I don't think Rocket ever went broke. He lost some money in the market, but if I remember right, he's done ok for himself.

haha, well done

He's got my cell number so hopefully he will come join us. I will hit him up for some Miami stories if he does.

Always thought his name was "Raw-Heeb". Nope. It's "Rogg-Hib".

No, he didn't.

What was Rocket selling me? And what possible vendors could my company possibly be hosting? I sell insurance in my pajamas.

He's in town for some bullriding event and my neighbor is an event planner that coordinates events in that arena. Her family is ND fans and they know how much I hate the Irish so she invited me to join them to lunch.

He had nothing to sell me. Even if I wanted to go to this bullriding crap, I could get in free.

Right. Broke was a poor choice of words.

Considering that 78% (I believe that was the number) of former NFL players are broke 4 years after retirement, the ones who aren't are more shocking than the ones who are.

Yes. Rocket is the first fucking person mentioned in the SI article "How Athletes Go Broke." I can't believe someone had to tell Torii Hunter not to drop another $500k on inflatable shit for your furniture.

Jesus Christ, it's only 2 years and 78% are broke or in financial distress.

They mention Rocket took part in that board meeting, but it didn't say if he ever went completely broke. If I remember correctly, he banked a lot of his NFL money and tried to start a record lable that didn't work (shocker) and lost some in the market.

Y'all dont have a lot of black people in Iowa?

I would say 90% eat steaks well done

I have a friend on my old block who is an older black guy. I kick back brews with him once in a while. Always makes his steaks well done.

And apparently have no Muslims whatsoever.


How could anyone not even know that?

If there's anything worse than a name-dropper it's a jock-sniffing name-dropper.

JON=Zyclone?

On second thought, strike that. JON's boy at least is someone I've actually heard of.
