    Made it longer than I thought. Feel bad for the guy. To have so much and squander it stupidly... hate to see it.

    Keep in mind that AB reported this on his CTESPN twitter. I am guessing he would like some judges to think it is true and appreciates the attention. Not exactly the most reliable source of info

    I’m sure this is just a maneuver to not pay taxes or something. And it will backfire on him worse in the end.

    Dude has a million dollar smile and if he had good character he could have had endorsements up the wazoo and been very very rich.

    Now he leads the “None Money Crew”…

    This was very predictable unfortunately. I can’t imagine earning all that money and just squandering it away but you could see it coming with AB

    He clearly has mental health issues and I hope he gets some help eventually

    If the website I looked at is correct, he's earned a bit over 80 million dollars during his football career. It's crazy that someone who's earned that much money and didn't throw it all into some business that went bankrupt is now having to file for bankruptcy. That tells you that he's straight up spent his money like an idiot.

    I have not watched it but Netflix has a series along the lines of this where the stars lose their money.

    OK Billy Ray;)**

    ** I'm going way back but Billy Ray Cyrus said those same words when he won an award for achy breaky heart. Actually one of my favorite acceptance speeches. Could have been a dime????

    Struggling to find any sympathy. Clark said he was like this from the get go. I dont think its CTE, I think its like the Bill Cosby analogy that cocaine intensifies your personality and Cosby says but what if you are an *******?

    I think he’s just an ******* and it has intensified as his fame grew. And a fair amount of cocaine I’m sure.

    Move on everyone. Formerscribe doesn’t think it’s worthy of discussing.

    I once was overly persuaded to attend a free Billy Ray Cyrus concert in Atlanta during his Achy Breaky Heart tour. It was the absolute worst concert I’ve ever seen by a long shot and I’ve seen at least 700 concerts in my life. It was so bad that he ran out of stuff to play and he actually played that dumb song twice.

    Y'all can discuss it all you want. I'm genuinely curious why we should care.

    No one should dare say "what a shame" or "I feel bad".

    Think of all the regular folks AB either ripped off, or neglected to pay for goods and services, over the years.

    This guy absolutely deserves to be broke, for a lot more than just how he handled his football career.
