King signs NIL deal with Florida Panthers

They'd probably survive with or without my patronage, but I'd go watch any two teams if I had the chance. Live hockey is so much better than watching on TV. We're also going as a big group and most of the boys are Eastern Conference fans. Flyers, Caps, Pens & Devils. I grew up a Roy fanboy so when he was traded to Colorado I followed him.

I'm just giving you a hard time - I have no qualms about enjoying a sport you love.

Love it.
Keep showing the kids at home that they don't need to $ign a deal with the Klansman devil of the Bible belt.

Sounds great but the Panthers begin in October. How King plans to manage all of this remains to be seen.

Well, he's not going to miss any games, practices, work outs, team activities, or classes. You can be sure of that. So I am not sure why we are worried about a kid spending a few hours a week making some scratch over playing basketball, video games or going to the beach.

Is Burger King still based in Miami? If so I hope to see them promote a commercial series… “ D’Eriq King vs The King “ in assorted tailgate competitions

the King is ready…it already looks like he is about to throw up the “U”!

King will soon speak about Miami as an "organ-i-zation" and rave about the chemistry in the "dressing room".

Puck vernacular humor aside, these type of endorsements are almost certainly not as lucrative as a money transfer app or bitcoin outfit just handing kids big dollars but they probably provide much more polish to a kid like King on the marketing front if he's successful and has these opportunities on the next level.

One would think that once a kid hits the NFL it's going to be far less about a CashApp type of outfit trying to find a way to give a kid money with no real expectations in return and more about "real" businesses/corporations/etc. wanting to have legitimate endorsement relationships.

"Blah, Blah, Blah, get pucks in deep...Get pucks on net," whilst sweating profusely all over the interviewer/mic. Gotta love those intermission interviews.

Hahaha!

If King says the keys to the Baga game are staying loyal to dumping and chasing and that we just gotta grind and keep crashing the boards then I may cancel my flight to Atlanta.

If there was any doubt about King being the man (on campus, face of UM, a face of college football, etc.), all these NIL deals put that narrative to bed. I'm pumped to watch King this year and hopefully in the league but he's got a very bright future outside of football too.

My beer league team is doing a promotion where you sell a ****-ton of tix and you get an hour of ice after the game in return. Got lower level in the corner behind the visitors net, much cheaper than what they're going for on StubHub or anywhere else.

Market selling them with your booty gifs…lol
 
Lightning fan myself, but the Panthers gave the Bolts the best series of the playoffs apart from maybe the Islanders. They're a legit team. Good on King getting involved with them

Dunno, man. Those sweet potato fries fries a while back were to die for. Sweet potatoes very healthy compared to regular potato, specially if you’re trying to eat a healthy diet. So I always ordered those sweet potato fries with my Triple Whopper.

Now what was the issue?

None if you washed it down with a big gulp sized diet coke.
