Michael Irvin: one of the best wide recievers the game has ever saw. As for the 75K watch, well, I assume there must of been A LOT of diamonds in that watch somewhere. Though, I cant see where you would stick so many diamonds in just a watch! Maybe it was 24 karat, hmmmm?

I don't get where the problem with that statement is. Lot's of wealthy people have hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of jewelry. I mean, I make about a tenth (or less) of what Irvin made a year, and I have a 6K Breitling and 9K Mueller.

The trouble my friend is that so many people complain how they were so poor and than throw that out simply out of the window as soon as they
buy a watch for 75K

I don't see how it's a bogus statement.  I have a friend that grew up poor and when he came into money (a lot) he spends it on stupid shit.  He doesn't give it to charity, or invest for his future.

100% true. But Irvin made more than a 3M a year for a pretty long career, and made around 1M a year as an analyst after he retired. Him buying a 75K watch is like me buying a 5K watch, it's all relative.

I mean, he IS an idiot, but that's another point entirely. I bet he spent way more on blow.

Nothing will ever change the fact that the pedigree or Mr. Irvin is beholden to a glib past of tilling and hoeing the white man's field.  Money may buy an an expensive time piece, but it can never buy a new family tree.

You are dumb.   That's what is funny.  You also give a lot away about yourself with your posts (as does everyone).  

Ex.  Adam goes on a tangent about cash and debt b/c Adam has spent nearly all of his inherited cash.  He is hating himself right now for that, so his attenae are zoned in on this particular thread (as opposed to not posting in others).  How much do you have left?  1000?  2000?  Certainly not more than 3000?  Time to split your time between Monster.com and getbig.

I'm neither beleaguered nor a pessimist. In actuality I'm an optimistic gambler. I have zero debt other than a mortgage, invest aggressively and enjoy my excess money on things that nobody needs, but I like.

One thing is for certain, I feel no superiority over anyone. I do believe I'm better adjusted than you are, but that's only from a perspective where I don't project my hate upon people who were historically less fortunate and taken advantage of. I don't believe in classifying individuals due to generalizations of their racial background. While superficially this might make you feel intelligent that you've "figured them out", in reality you are not in a position to make any such judgements.

Since when did this become a superiority argument.  Facts were stated.  Mr. Irvin is less than three generations away from picking cotton in the hot South Carolinian sun.  Therefore his chosen expenditures are a figurative expression of disdain for his entire history of pater and mater familia.  This is his way of finally feeling that he has now become emancipated.

However,

It is not true emancipation though as his occupation has been nothing more than amusing droves of racist and unintelligent "fans" whilst expanding the coffers of his 20th and 21st century masters.  Picking a ball up and running around for the amusement of an unintelligent white majority and not reaping total benefit is certainly as degrading as picking enough cotton in order to become a freed landowner.

No, it's for mutual benefit. Irwin likely enjoyed his sport, and really enjoyed his money. I enjoyed watching his talented play, as I'm not jealous of his abilities but rather in awe of them.

I think you will find that Mr. Irvin would agree with my entire assessment as evidenced by his anecdotal statement/commentary:  Controversy continued to follow Irvin when during a November 2006 radio interview on the Dan Patrick show, Irvin joked that Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo's athletic ability may have been due to African-American heritage, and made references to Romo's maternal relatives being involved with "slave brothers".[8] Irvin later apologized. He explained himself saying, "this is how I joke around with Romo when we're playing basketball. There's a difference from me the player and me the broadcaster".[9]

Even if he did agree with your assessment Adam, it doesn't mean it's correct. In fact, from that quote I can assume Irwin has a large amount of pride both in his hard working ancestry, and his ascent to current position of affluence from such meager beginnings.

You really do demean yourself by your shortsighted, negative viewpoint.

It is a myth that slaves were hard working.  Most were good for nothing and were sold amongst owner to owner.  The expensive slaves were the ones who could cook well.  Furthermore, the phenotype NEVER determines the genotype.  Working in a field has no impact on future generations as this does nothing for evolution in any species of any kind.  Furthermore, these people were NOT selectively bred.  It would be impossible.  Not only is there not enough time passage between generations to actively select traits, the entire gene pool was too wide stretched and mottled.  The gene pool has to be isolated.  You and Mr. Irvin should not use slavery as any kind of genetic justification.  It just makes one appear entirely ignorant on the subject.

Ok, do you think Irvin has any idea about the above "information"? The point is, if he isn't a historian on his own gene pool, and he believes he came from hard working, genetically gifted ancestry, he likely views his current status as an accomplishment, no?

You really don't look at both sides of things before passing judgment. You merely find someone with theories which line up with those you'd like to see be true, and use them as justification for your way of thinking. Take the above statement, for example. How can you make a qualitative statement about the relative worth of slaves, and they're level of effort, without having ever owned a slave yourself? Surely slave-owners felt there was tremendous worth in such individuals. After all, did they not go to war over the point?

As for your assertion that working in a field had no genetic effect on future generations abilities, I believe this is unproven and furthermore, the statement that Romo must have "slave blood" is not so much an indication that slavery and it's practises had anything to do with genetics, but that those cut out for slave work likely have superior working genetics. That's right, Adam, negroes have better genetics for sport than white men. That's my unfounded viewpoint for the day...

You merely find someone with theories which line up with those you'd like to see be true, and use them as justification for your way of thinking. Take the above statement, for example. How can you make a qualitative statement about the relative worth of slaves, and they're level of effort, without having ever owned a slave yourself? Surely slave-owners felt there was tremendous worth in such individuals. After all, did they not go to war over the point?

As for your assertion that working in a field had no genetic effect on future generations abilities, I believe this is unproven and furthermore, the statement that Romo must have "slave blood" is not so much an indication that slavery and it's practises had anything to do with genetics, but that those cut out for slave work likely have superior working genetics. That's right, Adam, negroes have better genetics for sport than white men. That's my unfounded viewpoint for the day...

The only qualities sought after in regards to slaves was the ability to produce children or those with skills using farm equipment.  Slaves were a common commodity, easily bought and sold.  Their price did not vary much from slave to slave.  Quanity of slaves was always more important than quality since they were expendable.

The trouble my friend is that so many people complain how they were so poor and than throw that out simply out of the window as soon as they
buy a watch for 75K

People who grow up poor and then come into money by fluke (sports, entertainment) tend to blow it because they don't have the same fear of poverty as someone who comes from money. To the latter, taking away his money would be the equivalent of cutting off his air supply.

At 186, I'd guestimate that I'm ~ 7% or so. I've never measured bf% though. One thing is for sure though, I could weigh the same as you and still be lower bf, even though I'm 9" shorter. That's pretty funny!

Well said.  To admire such a dumb person, is baffling.  You'll never see a great real musician, who isn't pretty smart...just impossible.  Have to love America.  This country embraces mediocrity and stupidity.
I actually watch some regular tv on a plane ride recently and felt dumber by the time I landed.  Simply horrid stuff. 

The guy makes half a billion, projected 3 billion in the next 5 years from business deals pertaining to Vitamin Water, and you call him stupid. If you guys are all so smart, where's your billions?

Since when does monetary value equal success or intelligence?

Oh, about since the time stupid equated with near-zero earning potential.

Since when did getting lucky with a rap contract in an age of idiots, equate to intelligence? haha  What a foolish statement.
I guess Tyson is another mental giant cause at one time he had half a billion or something...haha
Great logic. ::)

Anyone claiming that somebody who can make 500 million bucks is stupid, is stupid, and does not have 500 million bucks.  That's pretty much as factual as I can be here.   ;D

He made his money from an early investment in Vitamin Water, and was bought out by Coca-Cola for 500M bux. Whether or not his capital was earned through intelligence is moot, he clearly made good choices, and continues to do so. You sound really bitter all the time Kynan.

He's business minded, has some common sense, and listens to great financial advisors.
