[OILFIELDTRASH]

Seemed like a nice guy from when he was a receiver in Dallas.

Five to ten kilos? Yeah... he'll be in prison for a while

 

[OutHouse]

1,000 pounds of pot per week? holy shit the guy had big dreams!

As if the season couldn't get any worse.....

Or a big case of the munchies... :hmm:

 

[CrazyAznDriver]

He watched this Scarface to many times...

 

[mvbighead]

I'm sorry, I simply don't flipping get it.

I know he isn't a premier player in the league.. but according to rotoworld he signed a 3 year deal worth 4 million, and received a 1.6 million dollar signing bonus to boot.

How in the blue shit is that not enough money for one to sustain a comfortable life style? There are a number of individuals who will never accumulate that amount of money of their entire life. He gets it for three years of work, but yet he needs to prove that he's better than Johnny Depp or something? I simply do not understand how someone making such a nice amount of money can do something as stupid as that.

It's the NFL... you only play for so many years. Then what? :whiste:

Retirement plan! That's what!!!

 

[zzuupp]

usually a Dallas Cowboy waits until after retirement to start dealing

 

[Saint Nick]

How could any manufacturer keep up with 1,000 pounds per week? Holy shit.

He was probably dealing long before he signed that contract or even entered the NFL. In that case he's a hard-core dealer masquerading as a football player and not a football player who happened to dabble in dealing.

[OILFIELDTRASH]

So he was doing the NFL as a side job. Kinda like a front for his real money making business. lol

Man he was making a killing than . 1kilo of columbian kryptanite from the farmers dring house is under $5. So if he paid the runners he was kaking 2 million + a weak.

 

[Saint Nick]

This is pretty preposterous IMO. Personally, I don't think he knows shit about dealing. If you are at the point where you need 1,000 pounds of pot per week, you need to be growing the shit and have a pretty elaborate network of runners and whatnot to keep that going...I think he just thought he could make some extra dough but fucked up big time.

OTOH, if he has been doing this for a long time...where is all of his cash

And how much do you know about dealing? Just curious. 1000 pounds of weed sounds like alot until you are a major supplier for a major metro area.

 

[rcpratt]

That is a ridiculous amount of product.

 

[DayLaPaul]

$350/lb for the ganja? That's either a really great deal or some really shitty weed.

 

[benzylic]

And I thought Knox was the bears best possession receiver

 

[BoomerD]

$350/lb for the ganja? That's either a really great deal or some really shitty weed.

If you're buying a single pound, yes...if you're buying 1,000 lbs at a time, then double that or more for the price of a single pound on the street...

Are you familiar with the concept of buying in bulk?

(in this case, alternator size does not qualify)

 

[shortylickens]

How many kilos in a pound?
2.54?

Stop using your own shit.

Thug Lyfe Yo! - Gotta maintain the street cred.

Looks like he was trying to pad his 420(k) plan and got caught.
