doesnt it wear at your soul asking people for money that obviously dont have it?

I couldnt cold call people and ask them to pay money like that. It would chip away at my sanity.

You'd be surprised how many people do have it....

However, all DJ jokes aside......I do work with people.....I have taken as little as $25 a month over as long period. We can't take less than that because we pay our merchant a % of each payment. But, most people hat work I get on a monthly payment of 100-300 a month.

PS: An attorney asking me about my soul? Just kidding, Wiggster......LOL.

haha...i ancitiapted that retort.

I do ZERO ZERO ZERO criminal law and will never do it unless forced to do it.

I work on corporate/llc law for midsize to small businesses, tax issues, estate planning issues, and some civil litigation, and even a little domestic relations here and there when the help is needed.

I do ZERO criminal law and will keep it that way. My one buddy had an internship at the Cuyahoga County Prosecoturs Office and we went out for a drink one day and he said "all day i watched video's of r*pe confessions"....im like ehh....does not sound like a lot of fun.

It's verbal jiu jitsu.....if you're good......you can do well.

Popped some 3k and 5k deals during tax season.....just last week I popped a 3,500 and 3k on 2 different days.

any job that involves sales is. it comes down to selling yourself (personality, you sickos). I should know because I do high end sales myself, though I understand telemarketing can be a bitch. Definitely not an easy gig...

Dude need to realize the dream is over. You got your 2 rings and made millions. Enjoy the rest of your life.

Also doesn't help that we're approaching 3 years since he last played a game


Or that he could drop dead at any time if hes off medicine and gets hit.

I wish the best of luck to Luol Deng, he was one classy player to take the diminished roles and not complain. He is now taking less money in order to move away from the situation and go on with his life - that took a lot of strength and character. If the report is correct, the buy is slightly better than the waive and stretch move being that next season it gives the Lakers an extra 12 or more million without having to pay Luol off over the following years. That will make two years in recovery time from the Jim Buss era - Magic Johnson has earned his paycheck

Actually I think it's a little better than that according to Lakersnation.com - Lakers will pay Deng this year the full salary he is owed. Deng is giving back or taking a 7.2 hit on next season - 2019-2020. The Lakers will take the 11 million and stretch that season over two years so that they only have to pay about 6.5 million and then the Lakers walk away with 38 million under the cap instead of 25 and Deng is a free agent once he clears waivers I assume. This gives the Lakers another spot for a young player

Heat’s Dragic is available in trade talks

A league source told AmicoHoops Saturday that Miami would gladly trade Dragic for a first-round pick. The Phoenix Suns, who are looking for a starting point guard after sending Brandon Knight to the Houston Rockets, could reach out to the Heat in regards to acquiring Dragic

yah they stretched him. I think they realized they were never going to find a taker- so decided to keep him at his full salary this year and stretch his remaining year over 3 years.

Condelences, @DJ

I was pissed, but we got two 1st rounders and a 3rd.

Then making me happy.....we traded a 5th rounder and upgraded our backup QB spot wjth AJ McCarron....insurance in case Carr gets hurt.

EJ Manuel can hit the fucking road.

i mean- it sucks getting rid of Mack- but to get 2 first rounders for him and to not have to devote so much cap space to a defensive player is a win.

Gruden can build his own team now.

And the Bears are certainly nothing special- those picks could be around top 10.
