• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

I’m shocked (Antonio Brown related)

Hard to imagine blowing through that kind of money. Figure he kept 35% after paying people and taxes. That is still 30 million or so. Does he rent his house and lease cars? Where'd it all go?

I think $30M take home over his career is a good number

Assuming he never allocated any of his money to prudent investments to live off the yield (of course he didn't),

$10M home = $60k mortgage payment each month
$1m worth of cars= $15k/month in car payments
I could see a guy like him blowing $2k a day on average easy = $60k month.

That's approaching $1.6M a year. He started in the NFL in 2010, so its been 14 years.

So that's $22M in that time span and I'm probably missing some major variables in the equation. For one, he's surely had to pay a massive amount of legal fees over is career

I've always wondered how these multi million dollar athletes do this as well, but the math could kinda make sense.

Family and posse took a bunch of it.

Maintenance/upkeep on a spread isn't cheap either.
@TopHook I'm pretty sure anyone playing over "x" amount of time get a pension. But I don't think you get that pension until formal SSI retirement is enacted. I think this is correct but not totally sure
