Yep. Worked as a PD for 3 year sin Atlanta right after law school.

In private practice I had the ones who could pay, but still brought the money in $1 bills. I used to make them go to the bank and turn the $1’s into $20’s. $1’s take too long to count. And earn.

I've often thought that, in addition to the IRS requiring Form 8300 to be filed when you receive more than $10,000 in cash in a business transaction, you should have to report 10,000 different pieces of currency being received in a business transaction...

...at the very least, it would make movies and TV shows involving ransom payments very interesting...or perhaps very boring...

I take it you must not be one of those Atlanta gentlemen who take their business meetings at the Clermont Lounge or the Pink Pony. Could have turned those ones around quickly!

You know the culture well. I had a few friends who spent so much time and had so many clients from the Pink Pony that I could never figure who was actually making more money in the transactions. It felt like the same money was just going back and forth. But I was married before I was making any real money so that pretty much limited the night life.
I never really had a chance to be single in Atlanta with money. All in all, probably a really good thing for my bank account and general/genital health.

I think that Lagway’s arm could have been amputated at the shoulder and Napier would have said he was on the practice field throwing 40 yd darts….i think they’re scared of losing what few recruits they have especially on the offensive side of the ball that are coming here to play on an offense with him….
If He can’t play they really have little to offer other than unlimited cinnamon buns for every player.

Yeah, and his coach-speak is doing the trick. The fanbase is eating it up. Just in the past 24 hours, on one of the UF boards, I have seen the following:

- Both Anthony Richardson and Lagway called generational QBs
- Their QB, OL, DL, and RB rooms said to be among the best nationally
- Many fans expecting 10+ wins, with 10-2 being the floor
- This year is the best year they feel about the roster since Napier took over

It’s truly unbelievable how delusional they are. How in the world can they be optimistic about that QB room when Lagway can’t throw and the two guys behind him shouldn’t even be at a P4 program? It’s insane.

Edit: I also forgot to mention that they are convinced that their game against us will be a home game for them. 🤣 So apparently they can’t accurately count people on the field or in the stands. Even when we were terrible in 2013, they only had maybe 30% if the seats.

I think things will continue to get spookier for the Gators the closer we get to week 1. The whole Lagway injury situation still doesn’t make sense to me. Star QB is so injured that he can only hand the football off 5 months since the last game of the season. But injury does not require surgery??? Who has ever heard of an injury like this before. Legitimately interested if anyone has any other examples. Only one I can think of is Markelle Fultz and not the same sport.

No inside info from me whatsoever but I assume the NIL investment put into the kid is taking priority over his actual long term health. He probably should’ve had surgery in January, they dropped the ball and cannot risk surgery now as he holds the keys to their season and employment.

I think he takes a step back this year just due to the fact that I believe there is no possible way he can be 100% healthy. If I could place a future bet I would put it on him to be in the portal following this season. Anthony Richardson’s previous comments about Napier and the program is really all that needs to be replayed. He is the only player of any needle moving relevance on that roster and everyone in that building knows it. An 18 year old that threw 12 TDs and 9 INTs that has 4 career games passing over 200 yards is all of sudden is good enough to dominate college football with no live reps for what will be 8 months. I’m very biased due to my hate for the Gators but I think they could be in for an FSU type meltdown this season.

I was there. Way less than 30%. Maybe 10%.

I think we all remember how that home game helped last year

They'll never have an advantage at Hard Rock. I hope our administration screws them on the tickets the same way they did us last year at The Dump, I mean Swamp.
