Default I bought Seahawks runningback Marshawn Lynch's F-type!

So here is my story.... My Father passed away just over a year ago. We were very close and watched every Seattle Seahawks game together. I had been casually looking at the F-type for some time and when I found one locally I was interested, but when I found out it was Marshawn Lynchs I had to have it! I hope my father looks down in appreciation instead of "You spent how much??" haha


Check out the Fred Jackson drag racing accident on YouTube. You will see Marshawn pull away from the accident in MY 2016 F-type R!

He turned it in the dealer who then sold him his current white Lamborghini Aventador.

I was lucky enough to get the remainder of the factory warrantee plus a CPO to 100K miles or 5 remaining years (6yrs from first day of service) plus customer care for 5 years. The deal I was able to secure for the car and warrantee was worth crediting Jaguar of Bellevue Washington! Thank You!

I'd really like that! He lives in Cali now. There have been attempts made to contact him but he hasn't replied.... Maybe if he knew what it meant to me, being tied to the time I spent with my father watching games before he passed away it might help. Not sure how to follow up on that.

Default I saw ML Thurs night at a party.

He has a Lambo and a RR now.

He has a store downtown Oakland he just opened selling clothing and I see the Lambo parked in front all the time. I also play tennis up at UCB all the time and saw him doing some alumni stuff a few times.

Here's an interesting story...

His mother was very poor. I don't mean like grew up in the hood poor but actually - trying to figure out where the next meal would come from poor. They were very close and when he got drafted, she never let him cash any of his paychecks. She would take them and put them in a safe for him and give him an allowance! Rumor has it that he has a stack of uncashed NFL checks two inches thick to the tune of tens of millions in cash. She was smart enough to know the longevity of a NFL back and wouldn't let him spend his own money. Now that he's retired, he is so cash rich that they are set for life which is a rarity nowadays, especially for a short lived RB.

He is a good dude, contrary to his maligning in the press. What is it you want him to do? Gary Payton, a good friend of his is an associate of mine and we all drink together at Warrior games in the VIP bar. I could pass the word for you I guess if it's something reasonable. Hell if I can take a selfie with KD, anythings possible.

If it's just documentation you want that the car used to belong to him, that should be pretty easy to do if you're clever.

This makes no sense to me. The checks would be no good after a set period and he would still have to pay income tax on them. I call BS on this story. Cash them and put the money in savings would have been the smart thing to do. But a stack of un cashed checks? WTF?
