And I don't care WHERE that backyard is set up. That is sick and I would love to have one like it.

Davie is the place where you see confederate flags and lifted trucks. It's embarrassing to admit you're from there.

Also, aren't players taxed based on where the game was played? So 8 home state games, then 8 taxed game checks where they play?

Endorsements and other non game day earnings factor in as well.

There are some quirks like that in certain industries. Where the "work" takes place is what matters. I weould think the Florida and Arizona teams would stop payinh players with game chacks and put them on a weekly/bi-monthly pay schedule.

Albert's earned in excess of $35 million in his career to date, so a $2 million dollar home is quite modest in comparison.

That's what I was thinking. Only 1.95 million damn

Federal taxes plus agent costs and players Union he'd be lucky to have 12-14 mil

Dane is this what your movie room looks like?

Guy spends 40% of the year getting physically abused and you'll begrudge him for splurging on his home? And that's even conceding that this purchase in actually a 'splurge' (it isn't).

Let's say he loses $500K on the sale after commission - unlikely, but possible. If the guy lived there for even 2 years, he's 'wasted' $250K on the purchase.

If he does that every single year for the next 40 years, it will have cost him a whopping $10 million. Shit, round it up to sixty straight years of this obviously reckless spending and it will have cost him $15 million.

Well hell, that's only going to leave him another $30 or so million in lifetime earnings when all is said and done. Oh, and don't forget his annual NFLPA pension payments as a vested veteran.

Even giving every last look at this the absolute worst treatment possible - terrible land speculation, rip off agency fees and essentially an annual ass-kicking, this isn't going to be enough to actually hurt Branden Albert.

Dude spent money on a house - so what?

Add on the cars, wife, kids and other expensive items his post tax money doesn't look so great anymore. NFL players forget they aren't making long term, high paying income and with inflation over 3 decades that money feels at least 30% less than what it appears to be now.

NFL retirement pension for vested veterans is $200K/yr in today's dollars and that will obviously be adjusted for any inflation.

If he starts setting his money on fire with 'cars and other expensive items' you're right, that's an issue. But if you're talking shit because the dude chose to live in a house that he could literally pay off twice with a single year's worth of post-tax earnings, you're just kindof an idiot.
