I wouldn’t compare his drive to Hurts….but the kid isn’t slacking like so many of these talented athletes do. Where was ARod during OTAs? Didn’t even show up to practices…voluntary or mandatory.

Is he ready to go after his injuries?
July 3, 20242 yr Author I believe he made them go out and get the WR's he was comfortable with that he played with before. He would not sign until they did that

NFL wasn’t ready for him. He’d have been much better off playing a decade or two later when league O’s were more ready for what he could do. He set the groundwork for so many.

She has him on her phone. Maybe he will give that to me this time. I picked his brain some at family gatherings. Not much because I wanted him to enjoy the gathering,but a little. Super nice guy and he's funny too
July 3, 20242 yr Author We always talk about the fake spike vs the Jets.Now I can talk to him about the Philly Special. I believe his actions spawned that play for us

Massively stressful over every little detail and the fact of committing the rest of your life to a person officially. You mention his financials…he has to work out an agreeable prenuptial agreement with her…which is a whole extra stressful situation…on top of everything that comes with a whole marriage ceremony. Rehearsal dinner…possibly a second wedding ceremony brought to one of their hometowns….honeymoon….

Was a lot of fun. Certainly the bachelor party ( which I'm not sure in what world a groom plans????) was zero stress. Idk...the biggest party with all your closest people... I could think of a lot of way more stressful things.

I could think of a lot of way more stressful things. I did mine also.It took 1.5 years(because I am deaf and can't make phone calls LOL). I wrote the entire ceremony,sang her a song acapella,had to keep the refrigerated butterflies alive for their release. I ordered and assembled everything. Arch,flowers,DJ,custom runner,candles in bags,the resort hotel,paid 100% of all of it,even bought her a car as a wedding gift. It was a blast seeing it all come together(right down to the names on the M&M's in little bags and floating candles on every table. The other people at the resort thought we were celebs because it was so lavish. Then she thanked me by basically stealing everything I owned. Lucky me. The minister asked if he could keep my ceremonial writings/vows for others.I told him he could. He said in his 35 years he never read anything better. It was a pretty big EVENT. I also paid for her families rooms(6 of them at $550.00 a pop for 3 days and 2 nights as well as $1400.00 for the wedding suite. It was $41,000.00 and change all said and done and I did everything but bake the cake lol

It’s the bridezillas(there is a reason that term has been coined) that sweat every little detail about that most special dream day. Your bride stresses…you stress. Just normal common sense stuff all the rest of the world is so very familiar with. They have whole movies and shows all about it. A big wedding is a massive ordeal.
July 3, 20242 yr I got married at a very old plantation of a guy that was the richest guy in America back in his time long ago. Fiancée stressed about any detail that wasn’t going perfectly. I had to write my vows. I sang a song to her. Prepared for our first dance together….on and on and on …..the nerves coming on the day of the event…
July 3, 20242 yr Made sure I had flowers and a card a wrote her to help her relax right before she walked out….a million moving parts go into a wedding.
