Vince Young out of the NFL, out of money

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-400_162-...-out-of-money/

There's a lot more to it, but a couple excerpts:

Quote:
Six years after entering the NFL as the third player taken in the draft, Vince Young finds himself without a team and with just a fraction of the money he received from a contract that guaranteed him $26 million.

The question is, where did it all go?

In an increasingly caustic war of words, attorneys have been arguing for months over whether Young is an out-of-control spender who put himself deeply in the hole or simply a victim of inexperienced advisers, one of whom was his own uncle.

Either way, the quarterback whose future seemed unlimited after he led Texas to a Rose Bowl victory in 2006 is now back home in Houston and in a tenuous financial condition.

"I would just say that Vince needs a job," said Trey Dolezal, Young's attorney, when asked to give a general assessment of his client's finances.

-----

"This is a person scrambling helplessly and pointing in all directions to blame others to get out of debt," said Charles Peckham, Adams' attorney.

Adams twice wrote checks to himself from Young's accounts, but both times were out of necessity, including once when the agent was required to use personal funds to charter a plane for the quarterback after he missed a team flight, Peckham said.

Vince Young is weird... He had so much heart in college and it's like he lost it all in the NFL. He never looked like he cared in the pros imo.

There are stories out there about him spending like 5k a week at friggin' TGI Fridays, and The Cheesecake Factory. How is that even possible?

How did Vince Young go broke after earning $26 million in six years of professional football? Cars? Trips? Houses? Women?

As Clay Tavis details, the former Tennessee Titans quarterback had a more lowbrow, deep-fried road to the poorhouse: He spent thousands of dollars per week at chain restaurants.

Folks in the Nashville area helped piece together Young's squandered wealth during the3-Hour Lunch radio show this week. Among other tales, they report the University of Texas legend spent as much as $5,000 per week at Cheesecake Factory during his rookie season.

Five thousand. Per week. At a place with appetizers for $7.99.

A buddy of mine waited tables at Cheesecake for years. He served a number of famous people and large groups and estimates that the biggest tab he ever saw was $1,400 from a 20-person group. Even if Young brought the entire Titans offense out to eat, getting to $5,000 per week is mind-boggling. It's not like there's $90 steaks and $250 bottles of wine on the menu to help rack up tabs, you know?

Other amazing, hard-to-believe rumors: Young once spent $6,000 in a single sitting at T.G.I. Fridays, he paid a kid $200 to carry his luggage at the airport and he'd do $600 shots of Louis XIII de Remy Martin at Morton's after games. It's the last one that's most appalling. Shooting, rather than sipping, a fine cognac is like putting ketchup on Kobe beef. Or, more appropriately, spending $6,000 at T.G.I. Friday's.

There's just no way of knowing with certainty how a 21 year old kid will react once you throw him instant millions. A lot of these guys lose their competitive edge and desire once they have "made it".

I still think that with a good OC, he could be a much better option than Cassel.

I might take a second to feel bad for him and his wasted ability if I didn't live paycheck to paycheck without ever having had that ability... and never having had a check for millions.

How is it that a no-talent ass-clown like Cassel got $60 million for 6 years and someone who actually had talent (but no heart) only got $26 mill for the same time?

Karma is coming for Cassel's millions. He will catch a flesh-eating disease and spend his entire ill-gotten fortune trying to combat it.

And he will fail.
