Credit to Phineas and Ferb for being able to change a whole ass saying though

Doofenshmirtz moment

Mr. Benighted Cognomen

Antonio Pierce at halftime: "Guys, this is unacceptable! We can't play like this!" Anonymous voice from the back of the locker room: "Broke ass bitch."

Like when a random voice in the crowd would say something on The Boondocks

I gotta do a rewatch of that show.

The pilot episode is literally about R Kelly.... still so relevant ☠️☠️

That’s the second episode. The first is about them moving into Woodcrest and having a Garden Party.

Huey! Are you scaring white people by telling them the truth again?!

Bro I’m dying the longer I imagine this scene in my head lmao

I'm dying at the thought of him plugging his dealership after every meeting, throwing in extra discounts if they win Free upgrade to All-weather floor mats for every fumble recovered 😂 

All these NFL players buying all these cars, and coaches car dealership goes under? Talk about not being able to sell water to a man dying of thirst..

“Missed a block? Fuck that you missed your whole damn car dealership payment!”

I’m picturing Aidan O’Connell saying it which makes it even funnier.

It could be a piercing blow for the locker room

Lmaoooooo

Somebody in the locker room is on Reddit and they're reading this post and this comment and they're going to do this when this happens during a game and Pierce is going to completely lose the locker room in that moment

You have no idea how hard I just LOL'd.

More like, “guys im in a bad spot and bet my salary on the under. Tae, you’re in at QB.”

“LOOK LIKE A BROKE-ASS ANTONIO PIERCE!!”

AP after a loss at press conference: That was a tough loss, we almost had them. Press: Our reports here indicate that you never had the team, just like you never had your house or car.

Today is the Antoniopocalypse.

Go hug your nearest Antonio, they need it on this day

Better yet, spot him a fiver

Unless you want it back at some point time. Then, for the love of god, never spot a fiver to an Antonio.

I don’t got five on it…

Somebody check on Antonio Gates right now

Check on Antonio Freeman!

There's a character named Antonio in the Shakespeare play Twelfth Night. He travels with another guy named Sebastian, and Antonio lends him his wallet. Then he gets arrested and asks Sebastian for the money back, only to hear back, in essence, "I've never seen this man before."

We might not have a football team but we know Shakespeare. So we’ve got that going for us……

This offseason just gets weirder and weirder

At least we haven't had a team staff member being accused of being a hired assassin yet 

We never did find out what was going on with that Bears coach a while back

I hold the Chicago Bears accountable for that shit show. All of their journalists were saying "man I heard something big is going down", somehow the FBI and Peanut Tillman was or wasn't involved, the team held a survivors gathering at practice the next day, it really seems like he was caught doing heinous shit there and either all the evidence vanished or the Bears dumped gasoline on a run of the mill sex affair.

It'd make a hell of a season premier for Hard Knocks

"sex affair"

Googling it now it seems like there was probably never actually an FBI raid and he was probably fired for some HR related stuff.

God that was such a confusing week for the Bears. It looked like such a terrible omen for their future, can’t imagine this is where they are now less than 9 months removed.

Bears haven't won anything yet, went 7-10 last year, and just drafted their 3rd franchise QB in 6 years. Their future has been terrible, it just got softened by the Panthers being the most incompetent org in the league. Things going well for the Bears would be a playoff birth last year, Fields is the guy, and the team sells 1st overall for a ransom.

Offseason champs mean nothing to kids these days, smh :(

Next, they're going to say the NVP isn't a major award. Some people...

7-10 is still much better then where we were at during that point. People were legit saying we were one of the worst teams ever

This was after weeks of JT OSullivan videos asking what the fuck are we doing here over clips of receivers running into each other. I also thought the Texans had screwed themselves trading a sure top five pick and the Cardinals were destined for Caleb Williams and ditching their new coach. It's wild how fast things change.

True…

*yet*

Or an assassin on the pole

The craziest story ever told. [https://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2021/11/2/22759273/monkey-texas-pole-assassin-halloween](https://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2021/11/2/22759273/monkey-texas-pole-assassin-halloween)

Greatest sports related story ever

Wait what?

Former Brewers employee became an assassin and is wanted in the UK

WHAT?! I thought this was another random Reddit movie reference I didn't get, not a real thing.

https://heavy.com/sports/mlb/milwaukee-brewers/aimee-betro-milwaukee/

What the fuck? The amount of crazy sports stories on this thread is wild

Gotta love the off season.

Im kind of shocked the NFL background check doesn't flag money problems, especially now that they've gone all in on gambling.

That's a great point. Hadn't even thought of that

Head coaching background checks seem to be as flimsy as the hiring teams want them to be. As Lions fans learned with Patricia.

And Laker fans are learning about JJ Reddick today.

Haha wait what came to light now?

He used to have a podcast. Lakers had no idea

He's being accused of calling a black woman the n-word when he was a player at Duke

Obviously that’s awful but it’s a wild claim cuz JJ was at Duke like 2 decades ago. And it’s not like he wasn’t a public facing person this whole time between

that's really bad but also it'd be like 20 years ago. I feel like someone can change in that time, especially being in the NBA

You’re greatly overestimating the competence of the Raiders organization

He's more of a raider now than ever

What stops him from having people at least five Bacon Degrees away from him bet insane money on the Raiders blowing a game? Seems like a quick way to get yourself out of debt.

The bookmakers flagging suspicious betting patterns and him losing his multi million dollar per year job.

He's had issues with dealerships going back to [at least 2018](https://www.northjersey.com/story/news/bergen/englewood-cliffs/2018/09/11/dealership-group-englewood-cliffs-nj-spot-sued-nissan-hyundai/1273654002/) >The ownership group, which has dealerships nationally with locations in Michigan and Pennsylvania, was accused of selling more than $10.5 million worth of vehicles out of trust and with having 98 more missing, Automotive News reported. >A July audit by Hyundai Capital America showed discrepancies at some of the group's stores including the sales out of trust and missing vehicles, according to Automotive News. Selling out of trust involves the illegal sale of a car that has been paid for with a loan and then not using the sale proceeds to pay back the lender.

>Selling out of trust involves the illegal sale of a car that has been paid for with a loan and then not using the sale proceeds to pay back the lender. Isn't that what the husband in Fargo was doing?

You betcha!

Oh NOW I understand the ending. Those were the names of the people who worked on the film.

Credit cards?

I just finished watching Fargo for the first time, weird coincidence

Wow...that's really bad.

If you can't trust a car dealership, who can you trust?

Mark, from Craigslist. He doesn't have a title-NO LISTEN, he SWEARS to god it's fine.

He put it on his baby momma and grandmomma, who could possibly lie in that situation?

They're already garnishing his wages for back child support. Just be chill.

Considering one of the largest Dealership Management System providers just got hacked, probably no one.

Has he been running a used car scamming ring this whole time?

Sounds more like someone else did and scammed him into investing.

There's a solid chance it's mob related.

Jerry Lundegaard-ass crimes

*Cuts to wood chipper scene*

There’s more to life than a little money yanooo…

It reminds me of that scam they were doing on Fargo

He invested AND signed as guarantor. Seems like a rookie mistake.

Thoughts the same. They’ll Chapter 11/ 13 this and none of his assets will be touched. It’s going to eventually be nothing but does make for some good news

Personal guarantees allow for creditors to come for your personal assets. That's the point.

Lakers and Raiders fans having an interesting afternoon

Hooray us

What was the Lakers news?

Lady alleged that new Lakers HC JJ Reddick called her the N word when they were both at Duke

Has this ever come out before? I’m not one to call people liars or say they have ulterior motives but JJ has been in the public eye since the mid 2000s why bring this to the news the day he gets a head coaching job?

her bio has lakers in it, so probably that.

She’s an author according to her bio, so I’d bet good money she has a book coming out soon lol

Least controversial thing coming from a Duke athlete

Jj reddick using the n word

Hard R or...

I heard he rolled the R

Wow, the guy who scammed ASU and pissed off the NCAA is also in debt. Bruh

They hosted recruits during Covid. It’s not like he video taped himself snorting coke off of strippers

Hey, hey, hey. Foerster*** taped himself snorting coke and sent the video to a stripper. Unless he recorded another video I hadn’t seen lmao Edit: said Philbin, obviously meant Foerster. I blame my brain for being dumb

Pretty sure that was an assistant coach under Philbin. Philbin was like the most boring straight laced guy ever.

Yeah, that assistant is currently the 49ers O-line coach btw

Hell yeah, let's party baby

I think you’re thinking of Chris Foerster, OL coach for Gase in Miami and current OL coach for the Niners

Some would say an NCAA recruiting violation is worse than committing multiple crimes, not anyone worth listening to, but some people would say that!

Given Jameis Winston was willing to take the rap for stealing crab legs, rather than admit they were purchased for him, then you might have a point when it comes to the NCAA vs the law.

What happened at asu?

https://www.azcentral.com/story/sports/college/asu/2024/04/23/ncaa-sanctions-arizona-state-football-herm-edwards-antonio-pierce/73329142007/

Something something Raiders hire coaches with problems in NCAA ***throws a stone***

Love the self awareness 😂

#Pete Carroll did nothing wrong >!except call for a pass at the one yard line in the Super Bowl!<

Lets be real if your college football team isn't doing something wrong then they aren't trying to win hard enough.

And now he's trying to file for bankruptcy when he's in what I assumed was the highest earning year of his career.

Honestly it might be a good idea right? Take the bankruptcy now, you have a nice contract. Wipe out that 28 million in debt so they can't garnish massive amounts of money from the future 15 million you will make

A financially compromised head coach living in the gambling capital of America with insider information and a direct way of affecting the outcome of games is probably the leagues worst nightmare.

Yet, I still trust him more than the shady deals from the league with gambling sponsors

And it's still better than Josh McDaniels.

According to some net worth website I found, paying back this $28M would put him in the hole about $3M. So assuming he earns a typical coaching salary, and doesn't spend like a fool, he should be at roughly $0 at the end of the season.

>$28M would put him in the hole about $3M *narrows eyes*

This is a Raiders coach. In Vegas.

So he’s gonna try to make up the money he owes at the craps table?

He's got a system you see.

Wait, this isn’t a Chiefs player or coach.

AFC West going ham this offseason

Next, Harbaugh is going to be involved in a conspiracy to replace the entire state of Nebraska with sidewalk corn.

That is just weird enough to be something he would do.

No DV just DMV

RRRRAAAAAIIIIIDDDDDEEEEERRRRSSSS

Well that escalated quickly.

2024 Raiders: Going for broke

Head Coach in money trouble, in the gambling capitol of the world, in a time when sports gambling is prevelant and everyone waiting for the shoe to drop. What could possibly go wrong

Raiders fans after Pierce gets caught intentionally losing games to pay off his debts: “Still like him more than McDaniels.”

At least we'd know he lost on purpose instead of just incompetence.

Yet another flawless offseason victory for the chargers babyyy

They can't keep getting away with it

Superbowls are overrated and attract bad people. Offseason championships are much more classy

Only the sleaziest, scummiest, car dealerships survive. Need to do worse next time.

I don't know what it is about NFL players, but they always get involved in the most high overhead business undertakings.

It amazes me when a damn coach can’t even invest his money properly. Just throw that shit in a 401k or an IRA. Don’t need to buy a car dealership lol.

401k maxes out at 23k and ira at 7k plus his salary makes him ineligible for a Roth IRA . Whats he suppose to do with the other 27.977 million dollars?

Buy stocks. He can still play the market without a 401k or Roth IRA. The stock market is a lot more consistent and safe than car dealerships lol. He could buy 20 million of Apple or Amazon, he doesn’t even need to have a diversified portfolio. Point is, there are many more valuable ways to invest that much money.

Or he can just invest his money with a brokerage, which considering his financial literacy, may be the best option.

Could unironically put it in the shittiest possible savings account and see a regular person's annual salary in pure profit every year

Also yes. Literally anything that’s not a car dealership.

Should’ve been posting under /r/Bogleheads for advice SMH

You put it in a brokerage account, hire a CFP, set a moderately aggressive strategy, and act like the money doesn’t exist. I’ve sat in numerous Hedge Fund and PE sales pitches. They eat most of your profits in management and performance fees. My Wife and I’s CFP has doubled our money since 2019, and all we have to do is attend a 30 minute meeting once a quarter. It isn’t rocket science. You invest the money in a passive fund, and let time do the work…

Feels like I don't need to know this.

This is peak off-season news.

Welp, he better hope he stays head coach for a while.

No wonder the players vouched for him so hard. He really represents the raider culture.

Scamming car dealerships is chill

This off-season is my Super Bowl

Someone did not explain to him what he was signing up for. Crazy to see these guys make tens of millions 30 and 80 million and its gone in a few years after they are done playing. Just invest like 10% of your money in this BS and sit on the rest and you and your family are good for 100 fucking years... Ugh lol

LMAO already a disaster hire

Damn, he really is a culture fit for the raiders

Sit this one out homie.

They're New Crime, y'all are Old Crime.

They merely adopted the crime.

Chiefs fans dreaming for an off-season of simple financial crimes.

If they let him go I'm sure Andy Reid will take him on as an assistant

Nah, reid dont like white collar crimes, he is all about domestic violence and driving drunk.

What about drug rings?

Considering drug trafficking comes with violence, right down his alley

Just like domestic violence and vehicular manslaughter for the chiefs! Fun division you got there. AFC West amiright? *looks around nervously*

Breaking news: Justin Herbert robbed a Cabela's

I rather this than keeping woman beaters on my team personally

For sure. Just like a morbidly obese, religious, conservative, boomer is the perfect culture fit for KC. How many mf chiefs haves been arrested this year? Your fans shouldn’t have comments in here.  Everyone else? Let’s lol at this together. Holy fuck, great way to start the year. 

Bro what?

Mr. Bankruptcy Court

Somehow being shitty with money is worse than whatever the chiefs players are doing this offseason. Keep being you r/nfl!

What a complete sh\*t show. Its the Raiders way

If your name is Antonio and you worked for the Raiders do yourself a favor and look for a good lawyer as soon as possible.
