Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

this is terrific. wow lmao.

Might take Ross down with him.  Granted that guy seems to be Teflon with how many allegations have failed to stick over the years

as far as any implication of trying to tank because Stephen Ross may have invested in part of a $17.5 million round of funding - seems incredibly stupid for this guy to even bring this up. It's a complete non-starter. Stephen Ross is worth probably close to $10 billion. Maybe even more. Hard to quantify his wealth- as it's mostly privately held. Put it this way- he's so rich- he's donated $500 million to the University of Michigan. You have to have a FUCKTON of money to donate $500 million to anyone. You have to be obscenely wealthy. A relatively small investment in a gambling company for someone of his stature is virtually meaningless - like it doesn't even track. Makes no sense to me that it's even brought up. The money he's invested in the Dolphins and the money he makes from the Dolphins winning is infinitely greater than the little check (by his standards) he wrote to participate in a round of funding for a gambling startup.

If Flores is alleging that Ross wanted him to tank to get the #1 pick - I'm sure he's not the first owner nor will he be the last. If Miami had tanked and got Joe Burrow instead of Tua - Miami might be in the Super Bowl right now and not the Bengals. He's going to have to prove this allegation in court - that Ross offered him $100k to lose games to get the #1 pick - so good luck. Unless he's got emails or texts showing this - it's impossible to prove.

Flores is coming across like a major league asshole, jilted ex throwing a bunch of shit to the wall seeing if anything sticks - and the billionaire boys club ain't going to forget any time soon. This guy is killing any chance he's ever had at getting another NFL head coaching job again. I can see why the Dolphins fired him.

I don't think OBJ's time with the Giants was contentious, whatever his preferences.  He routinely seemed to be fine there when interviewed.  Who knows what's going on in his head, but OBJ was always a loud personality.  Nobody ever wondered what was on his mind when he was in college.  He wasn't a problem, but he wasn't a quiet guy who blended in either. 

What's up with Eli Apple?  Dude roasted the Giants and Saints, then insulted the fans, and then went a step further to trash the city of New Orleans and then say the food is horrible.  Now he's trolled the Chiefs players, offering them tickets to the SB.  All I really know about him was watching him with the Saints and the playoff games with the Bengals.  Nobody should be a douche, but when you're not even good enough to earn some passes, you really should try harder to do the bare minimum.  And by "bare minimum" I mean....you know....not insulting and picking fights with fans and insulting their cities. 

Guys who quarrel with their peers within the league or management may have some growing up to do.  When you can't stop yourself from blasting the fans who make your career possible, you have major character flaws.

ETA:  And if you dis NOLA's food, then you've left "douche" and crossed into "dumb" territory. 

Have to take what he says a bit tongue in cheek

Dude, no offense, but every single person you associate with in other cities, just absolutely sucks.  It's uncanny.  You get the worst hosts and worst advice of all time, every time.

I am a thousand percent certain that the NFL and Stephen Ross want no part of the discovery process of this lawsuit. I also don't blame Flores - getting canned after willing a terrible team to a winning record is awful enough, and then to get kicked in the teeth that they already picked their coach before your interview is doubly insulting.
