I really hope the NFL expands to about 400 teams. Otherwise some of these players will have to enter the real world eventually and find out how important they actually are.
I wonder how many of these kids will actually get some kind/any kind of education compared to the pre NIL/portal/multiple transfer days ? Or will it be basically just the same joke it's always been.

Whaddya mean, they're all setting up NIL funded trust funds for their future grandchildren.

That, or we should find out who the best producers of rims are and invest big.

I have a cousin that owns part of a rent to own rim place that makes stupid amounts of money.

America needs more Car Wash attendants and Dollar General needs more shelf stockers! But they will not find jobs at fast food places because they are all going to kiosks and robot grillers and fry flippers.

Marking money off of dumbasses financing wheels for their car *IS* the American dream.
Before we married, my wife managed a Rent To Own Furniture and Appliance place. It was insane the amount Of money going through that place and a large portion of it was cash. The repo guys delivered and repoed for a flat fee, those guys were taking home $1000-$1500 a week back in the 80’s. A NASCAR pit crew can change four wheels in seconds, it wouldn’t take a repo guy much longer in a WalMart parking lot.

Ha! Reminds me of this guy who used to sell cars in Starkville. A friend of mine got a job with him cleaning cars. I went to see my friend one day but he was out on a repo job with another guy. The owner told me we could wait on him in his office. We went into his office where he promptly threw me a beer and started describing his business. He pointed to the lot and said "I've sold every car out there at least 4 times. Everybody thinks Christmas comes once a year. For me, it comes once a month".

Technically that’s not a throne. It’s a High Back Tufted Queen Anne chair.
Dawgbite with a "well actually" correction on furniture styles!** SPS truly covers it all.

Had to have been taken at "The Scruggs Home at Ole Miss", right?. Already getting a return on that investment.

Yep, the down payment is non refundable. They have clauses in the contracts that they can reposses after 60 days. 1 missed payment plus 1 month to catch it up. Down payment usually covers the cost they have in the car.

They probably played Watch the High Back Tufted Queen Anne Chair to get him pumped for the picture

I bet the Black Shark Land Bears did "rent to own" on that throne, or got it out of Dickie Scruggs place when he moved out

Aight, we need some repo specifics from Cuz. Do they take the tires when they repo the rims? Do the bust the tires off the rims and leave them leaned against the car. Do they leave the car on blocks or do they put some old pull offs on it? Inquiring minds want to know!

Well, how would you repo a set of rims?

Obviously it's being done. It's just not obvious to me how best to do it.
VERY solid point. I guess like a 17ing pit stop. And if I were guessing . I would guess that most anyone renting to own a set of rims would be a Jacksonite. And those Jacksonites really are a handful.

They take the rims and tires, leaving the car on blocks. Then they remove the tires and the customer can come pick them up.

I bet that’s the guy that wouldn’t sell me a used truck because he said “you look like a responsible fella that would pay your bills”. Pissed the younger me off, but the older me gets that there are alternative economies.
