I mean it seems like you are 100% believing everything the dad is saying without question. Of course he is going to deny everything that Michael alleges. Who has supporting proof to their claims. That's what this will come down to.

Did you expect him to come out and say, "yes I got paid and all of my family got paid from the movie, except Michael. Screw that guy. I never liked him anyways"

I didn’t need the dad to say anything. Use one single iota of common sense here. What did the Tuohys have to gain here? 100 millionaires go through all of this to make a few thousand more dollars? Really?

And the timing of this right before his book almost 20 years later?

It’s ridiculous people trying to ignore the realities of above

quote:

Singer (Tuohy's attorney) -- in a lengthy statement to TMZ Sports -- said Oher came to the Tuohys prior to filing his 14-page petition in Shelby County, Tenn. ... and threatened them, saying if they didn't pony up an eight-figure check, he'd "plant a negative story about them in the press."


quote:

The conservatorship "was established to assist with Mr. Oher’s needs, ranging from getting him health insurance and obtaining a driver’s license to helping with college admissions," Singer said. "Should Mr. Oher wish to terminate the conservatorship, either now or at anytime in the future, the Tuohys will never oppose it in any way."


quote:

"The notion that a couple worth hundreds of millions of dollars would connive to withhold a few thousand dollars in profit participation payments from anyone -- let alone from someone they loved as a son -- defies belief," Singer said.


quote:

Singer continued, "Unbeknownst to the public, Mr. Oher has actually attempted to run this play several times before – but it seems that numerous other lawyers stopped representing him once they saw the evidence and learned the truth. Sadly, Mr. Oher has finally found a willing enabler and filed this ludicrous lawsuit as a cynical attempt to drum up attention in the middle of his latest book tour."

I just want a single person trying to believe this story to answer the below

the motive of the claim is truly impossible to believe.

People these days just so badly want “drama”

What?


But also, what kind of reason is we had him sign a conservatorship because you chose Ole Miss? If he chose anywhere else, would they not have made him sign it?

That doesn't sound remotely like a logical reason, nor did they address if he got paid for the movie.

1 of us is being reasonable and waiting for facts. You've made a decision in absence of facts, but go off.

I truly can’t believe how many people took this story to heart.
I didn't, but you've taken the very first Tuohy reply to heart.

because this claim is utterly ridiculous and should be called out as such

And you absolutely were not simply “trying to wait for facts” You wanted to pimp the loot abused monitory story. It happens shel, move on.

You are now trying to take Ws now on YouTube spoof videos. You are unraveling

Yep, Pride blamed me for something I didn't do, then quite literally his next post did the exact same thing he blamed me for.

He's taking a tough L in this thread.

Asking for all the facts to come out before taking a side is a bad look?


But you calling me out for asking for all the facts to come out before taking a side then immediately taking a side in absence of facts is a good look for you?

Bless your heart right now

The dad didn’t need to say a thing. The claims are ridiculous and honestly no statement is needed for anyone with any sense

Why lie?


If you were truly confident in your takes, you wouldn't lie.

So, why are you lying?

Why are you reposting spoof videos to “strengthen your point” if you think it’s solid?
