He sounds ungrateful.

Career earnings from NFL = $34M

Guess he’s blown all of it in his 6 years out of the league.

I need to hear Hugh Freeze’s opinion on this

Huh?

How does that apply to what is being alleged here?

He literally just found out THIS YEAR that they lied about adopting him


That may be what he's claiming but I really doubt it.

This.

I couldn’t get over how stupid they made him and Hugh Freeze look in that shitty movie.

The article says he knew he wasn’t adopted in 2011. How is he just now realizing this?

He was 3 months away from being 18.

They gave him the resources necessary to graduate high school to even have a chance at going to college for free. So they’re collecting royalties on it now? So what?

If he doesn’t wanna look special, maybe read the document before you blindly sign.

These people brought him out of the system and gave him a fighting chance.

Now he’s embarrassed by it all.

Big fricking titty baby

He conveniently has a book out right now. Anyone who believes he just "found out" the difference this year is being obtuse. He knew, he's just trying to sell a book.

It looks like he just released a new book last week, so I'm sure that has something to do with the timing of this.

But, if what he is alleging is true and he really is getting fricked out of money for royalties on the movie and his likeness, why does it matter when he makes it public? He should get money for that stuff.

A rich dude fighting with his rich family.

Yawn.


ETA: there’s not a single wholesome story out there that won’t eventually be debunked and destroyed.
