JaMarcus Russell getting kicked out to the curb!

[Dax]

He's gotta pay $195,512.05 In mortgage payments in the Next three months or his $2.4M cribb is gonna be auctioned away. I feel bad for the guy... wonder why he didn't just buy the place in the first place... and why they hell he can't fork up 200K to pay that shit...

Shows that no matter how great your physical abilities, you still need brains. Money management and lifestyle choices are paramount for athletes making millions. Something many athletes don't have the understanding for, considering a good percentage of athletes go bankrupt a few years after retiring

Look at Barkley and his gambling & money problems.

Are u serious Jordan doesn't need hanes lol his 200 dollar pair of Jordan and clothing brings in more money than what he gets from them by far

In Russell's case, maybe he's got an upside down mortgage and he's just walking away. Poor people do the same thing.

No need to point out the Obvious LOL....

[jollyoscars]

he needs to learn to manage his $!

[THE_LOCKSMITH]

i've read that he's been trying to sell the house but its down in value like a million, so he's just walking away from the house. Makes more sense right now, I think 32 million was guaranteed of that $60 million contract. So i doubt he's blown 32 million in 3 years, not to say it won't happen in the future

[CaptainPrice]

Doesn't he have millions???!?

[headhunter34]

youd think he could still make half a mill as a backup somewhere

[Raleigh77]

Ouch.

[zoso11871]

There was a list of famous athletes that blew a fortune that was recently published. I know Pippen was on it. I also remember it saying that Evandor Holyfield blew his $250M fortune. Smart guys.

[Numenor80]

I feel bad for these guys that blow that much money. Just goes to show that they didn't learn the fundamentals of money management (like 15% of America).

[uhuhahah]

Greedy...=> stupid

Just goes to show, hes another waste of talent in the NFL. Had a really good arm too, but work ethic of a snail.

Nice honorable mention for Travis Henry.
