Hunter Dickinson says he left Michigan after making just $60,000 through NIL, fearing he’d sacrifice his legacy without getting paid or making the tournament “I was kind of realizing it because with the NIL, it was now two years in and I’m thinking like, ‘Yo, when am I gonna...

John Wall says NIL money is exposing who's really hungry and who's not “If you’re a star player and you know you’re going top five, cool. Get your money. But don’t let that change you.” “I’ve got my tournament, right? A kid comes in that plays for Overtime Elite. I’m thinking he’s the star player. He comes in with three chains on, ski mask on, walking into my gym.” “So I’m looking at him like, ‘Oh, he’s the guy.’ How many minutes did the man play in the game? Two. They were down 20 and he played the last two minutes.” “I’m like, ‘Your mindset is all backwards.’ You’re buying all these chains. You’re walking in with a ski mask. And you’re not going to go nowhere.” “If you get NIL, you’ve got to have a great foundation, parents or a great management team around you, so you know how to manage it. Because it’s already kind of preparing you for the NBA.” “These guys are getting $3 million, $4 million in high school. I look at it like this… If I’m getting $3 million in high school… I’ve got the best car on campus. I’m making the most money on campus. Am I waking up at 5 a.m. to work out the same way? I better.” “I don’t think a lot of these kids are. That’s where it’s like, ‘Oh, I got this early.’ Now what’s my purpose of getting to the league? Now you know if a kid really loves the game. Because I’m already getting what I really want… The money. The cars. The fame. So do you really love the game?”

Jarvis Landry says after getting paid $75,000,000 and joining the Browns, he deliberately kept training like he was “dead broke” to set a standard “I played around a lot of talented players that also had a different mindset, bro. They just thought different. When you’re around like-minded people, or when you’re around people that think like that, either you’ve got to catch up or you’re going to get kicked off the ship.” “That was something that I developed, and that’s something that I still had in Miami. Miami had a little bit more of a culture. We had older players like Cameron Wake. I say his name first off the top of my head because that’s one of the leaders that was on the team. He spoke in the huddles, he spoke in team meetings and things like that.” “Then when I got to Cleveland, it was like none of that was around, literally. Everybody was looking around like, ‘Who’s going to say anything? Is anybody going to say anything?’ I didn’t say that I saw an opportunity there to go in and give a speech or whatever.” “That led from us training through the offseason. Once I got signed there, I started flying guys here, just trying to do things together, see who I’m going to work with, learning about these guys, seeing how hard they work. Do they think like I think? Showing them, ‘Yeah, I just got paid, but I’m still out here running routes in offseason training.’ Somebody working like I’m dead broke.” “So when we got to training camp, we practiced one day and guys are like, ‘my hamstring sore.’ I’m like, ‘So what have you been doing this whole time, fam?’ The next day we get the script, you see the numbers and a couple guys aren’t practicing. I’m like, ‘So why?’ ‘His hamstring is sore,’ or his quad, or his feet hurt. I’m like, ‘You could take practice off for being sore?’” “I went in the training room and the trainer explained to me about a couple guys that had some chronic issues, mostly linemen. The other shit, I’m like, So what?’ He’s like, ‘We don’t want to, it’s too early to get guys hurt.’ That kind of ticked me off because my hamstrings hurt too. My hip flexors hurt too. My feet hurt too.” “That was kind of what led to me giving the ‘weakness is contagious speech’. Bro, I can’t be great that way. If every time I feel resistance or pain, if I always just pull back from it to try to feel better, I’m not going to get past what I need to get past to try to be great.”

Lamar Jackson says he watched friends chase fast money while he was playing the long game and counting how many years it would take him to reach the NFL “I’m seeing my friends who I was growing up with who I was playing football with… Just throw their life away for fast money and stuff like that. They used to tell me ‘Oh, you talk too much’. Because I used to always speak about football and positivity stuff. They didn’t want to hear that.” “Now it’s like… They’d rather hear it now because I’m Lamar Jackson. But I’ve been speaking about it. Everybody just wasn’t listening. I was already seeing what was going on. I wish we could go back in time and y’all could see what I was seeing. Because I always looked at life like, I counted years.” “Like I would think… ‘How many years does it take to get to the league?’ They’re saying… ‘You do three years in college.’ I said… ‘I’m doing three years.’ I’m not doing four. I’m not trying to go fifth year. I’m doing three years because I’m going to make sure my family is good.” “If you’re coming from a place like where I come from, don’t try to be like the guys around you. Don’t look up to the stuff that looks like it’s fun… Because sometimes it gets you in trouble.” “It’s sacrificing. ‘Man, I can’t have fun right now. I’ve got to get my family right. I can’t do this right now. I can’t mess up.’ Forget the fast money. I’ve got to think about longevity.” “You can get locked up and do five years for $1,000. That money gone. It’s gone. You’re like… ‘Man, I just did that for $1,000…’ And I could have waited five years and I would’ve had $10 million.” “That’s why I’m where I’m at right now. That’s how I used to think. My mom working… She’s busting her behind. It’s me, my brother and my two sisters at home. I’m the oldest…” “So I’ve got to make sure everybody right. And it’s like… Man, I can’t wait, but I’ve got to wait. That’s the sacrifice. I’ve got to be patient. People don’t look at it like that. It’s like… ‘Man, I need that money right now.’ But you don’t need that money right now. Just wait.”

ZB1 outing Taerae’s business again 😭 🧸Honestly, we prefer splitting the bill like this. Some days one person pays, some days another person pays 🎻Yeah, yeah 🧸Some days one person just pays, like that 🎻But that kind of makes Taerae’s image seem bad 🐥it’s good for outsiders… 🎻Usually among friends, we’d just say, “You got it today,” and that’s that 🐥But this hyung suddenly texts me like, '”Hey,” so I reply with just a question mark, and he goes, “You have to buy the meal.” Like, what? Out of nowhere! 🐰It was fascinating to me. I’ve never done Dutch pay since I was young. If I paid, I paid the whole thing. If my friend paid, they paid the whole thing. But he (🐥) checks the split really meticulously 🐹Even down to just a few won? Like, if he eats 3 salmon sushi and I ate one, then it's gotta be split 3 to 1 🐱This livestream suddenly turned into a Kim Taerae diss show 🐰Like, let’s say the bill came out to 210,000 won. Then if someone paid 100,000… 🎻…another would pay 105,000? 🧸”I calculate exactly what I ate.” 🐰 But I’m like, “do we really have to go that far…" 🧸 "Just what I ate, that’s it." 🐰Only paying for what you ate 🐥I didn’t only pay what I ate, we all did! 🐹Even if you smelled the food, that counts as eating it! 🐰Like last time. What you ate, you paid for all of it yourself. He calculates it all himself 🐥It’s not like that! It’s just that restaurant was kind of like that each person’s order is shown individually. It’s that kind of place. But if it’s like Haidilao and the total is, say, 200,000 won, then I’ll just boldly pay 100,000 and split the rest 50/50. 🧸What are you even saying? 🦊I think this is the first we’re hearing of this…

WE BLOOMING BEAUTY #PlantneryxWilliamEst #WilliamEst 🦈: i said i’m not going anywhere anyway. there are times when we feel like, maybe we’re not suitable for each other. i feel like i see everything and i realize that maybe i’m the one causing the problem. i think, well, if i step back, maybe it would be better. i’ve thought, like, if this problem didn’t exist, things might be better. it probably wouldn’t have happened. i feel like okay should we separate? but we’re talking about this from the perspective of we actually don’t want to separate. in terms of work, everything’s great. if it’s just the two of us, everything’s happy. but because of external factors, it causes a lot of problems. some of these problems make sense, some don’t. i don’t like having problems, and i feel like it’s okay to just leave it, but when i keep everything inside, it makes me sad and all kinds of things start building up. when we clear things up, we like to deep talk. once we start talking, everything gets more serious, because he doesn’t want to separate and i don’t want to separate, but why do we have to separate? that’s basically what it was like at that time. 🎸: how did we sort it out? i’ve been thinking that even if he tries to push me away, i won’t go. 🦈: i’m not pushing away 🎸: even if you try, or if you say you don’t want to do this anymore, i’ll find a way to make it work, because since we started the thamepo project, we’ve never had any problems. we just argue, which comes from outside issues. we had to talk about it. i feel like it doesn’t make sense for us to separate, so i said, i wouldn’t let him go anywhere. let’s live our lives together.

Luke Kuechly says he knew it was time to retire from the NFL because he was no longer 100% mentally committed to hitting players at full force “I used to just go smack dudes and have no issues. And I would go hit a guy and I’m like, ‘Yeah, that didn’t really feel great.’ And so then, once you make the decision in your mind, I’m not all the way in it… like the last game of the year, I was like, ‘I’m done. I’m done’” “I just remember after that game, I was like, ‘Yeah, you don’t got it anymore. You don’t have it.’ I would've been fine if I physically slowed down. Can’t run as well, not as fast, maybe I’m not as physical. Maybe I don’t have the same fire. I would have been fine with that and I would have probably milked it out a little bit more” “Once I knew it was my head, mentally, it’s either yes or no. If you slow down, physically, you can still play football hard, play it fast and play with great effort. But once I knew mentally, it’s not any of that, I couldn’t rationalize. I can’t play as hard as I want to. My effort’s not going to be there. I can’t be as physical. It’s not fair to the guys on the team, and it’s not fair to the coaches, and it’s not fair to the fans and myself and my family for me to go out there at mentally 75%’” “If I got to thump a guard and push a guy back to Shaq to make a play, and I’m like, ‘Eh,’ and I get widened, and then the tackle is really hard on Shaq. That’s not fair to Shaq. For me to know, especially mentally, the reason why I’m not stuffing that guy. I didn’t take him on, I didn’t hit him how I should've. I couldn’t do that”
