Exactly Chyrene. That's why I find SUH's attitude so refreshing. He's not even close to being done and he's thinking about life AFTER the NFL. No videos games, but business classes, seminars, even a aviation business. People say a lot of crap about D. Trump , and I don't want to trainwreck this thread about him, but his dad left him $25 million to start a construction firm. He turned $25 million into $8 Billion. Does SUH possess those same instincts? He might but I think times are different and its going to be harder to make that much money, But I don't see him wasting it either on 17 cars he will never drive and 4 homes he will visit once a year.
GO DOLPHINS!!!!
