Raiders WR Amari Cooper Bought His Mom This House & Car

Cary Edmondson-USA TODAY Sports

I always love it when I see famous athletes take care of their families. Former Alabama star and now Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper showed off the car and house he bought for his mother on Monday...

I grew up in the projects, we didn't even own a car.. The whole story is way too long and melancholic, but just know a dream can go a long way if it's followed by faith and hard work. It took us 20+ years but now my mother has the house and car of her dreams. You deserve it mama, I love you. #JustTheBeginning

When a below average white guy does it, it's boasting.

I guess dad isn't getting his

There goes the neighborhood.

Cooper is a good guy from all accounts. Glad to see he appreciates his mom. He is one bammer that is difficult to dislike.

This would be an even greater story if the kid just did it and didn't have to send it out to the world to get a pat on the back. Amirite?

Quit whining

awesome!

Is it just me, or is this not exactly how most NFL players end up broke? I mean it is nice to take care of your mom, but one ACL issue and it all goes poof.

Stop being so damn jealous. The guy is showing love and responsibility. If you had the means, you would do it as well. The key is how he takes care of his investments and savings for retirement. Keep in mind, some athletes can live off their endorsements, as opposed to their salaries aka Marshawn Lynch, etc.

Are you not aware that real estate has historically been the best investment one can make? And I hope you aren't really saying a millionaire should not buy his mom a nonextravagent home and car. You people are something else.

If that happens, who cares? I would do the same thing for my mama. A lot of those players didn't have shite growing up and wanted to give the mom who raised them, a better life.

Nice. Good job Amari.

Insideradvantage•85 months

Awesome. No Bama fan here, but I do like the way Cooper has always carried himself. I can admit decency when I see it.

BigPerm30•85 months

You should've seen the car and house Alabama bought for them in high school.

Happy for both. They deserve everything good out of life.

Datbayoubengal•85 months

Yeah Coop has always seemed like a good upstanding and respectful guy, so I know he was raised right.

AUsteriskPride•85 months

Good for them.
