Ghost of Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Divorce lawyers always see through this, unless there is something I do not understand and full admission I am not a lawyer. In cases where one spouse makes a lot more money then the other one it's been known that attorneys will go after future earnings for the other partner in damages. Bolded part has me believing there is something to this that I don't know and you do so could you please enlighten me as to why he is safe from that? Honestly not that I care, I went through a divorce myself after 12 years of marriage and know there are good reasons for divorce sometimes and it's his business Hey, I don't claim to be an attorney in the state of WA. Some states are turning away from the default spousal support model, don't know if WA is one of them. Some states seem stuck, in spite of progressive politics (or because of it, since feminist law/social groups fight to maintain gender-based inequities in family law) in a 19th century paradigm. BUT even in those states, the spouse has to put in 10 years before lifetime alimony kicks in. In that case I have heard of some people who went broke after getting spousal support for a number of years, then went back for more, even though it was in violation. Like much of our legal system, it depends on the whims of some moronic judge, as well as really bad laws which act to siphon resources from (let's be honest, mainly men) spouses to the indigent or lower-earning spouse. I'd imagine that whatever resources she could go after would still be limited at least in proportion. Future earnings of a normal salaryman might be one thing, but the ups and downs and limited athletic career of a football player seem less likely to sway a judge. But it seems a competent lawyer (which Russ can afford) can head off those types of challenges, especially since the marriage was two years and even the relationship was less than ten AND there are no children. I have to ask myself, what is the point of getting married if the current prevailing law is no-fault and sides with this bizarre notion that because someone becomes "accustomed" to a certain lifestyle that they have married into it forever? Why does the other spouse not get resources in the form of cooking, home-making, psych. and physical companionship but at a reduced rate if this is somehow just? Again, in a bygone era it may have been the right thing to do (it was also in place to act as a countervailing force against marriage breakups.)

Smitty.89x Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Yeah I've told people in the past that guy is going to be an excellent politician after he's out of the NFL. I like his game and respect what he does, but I'm not oblivious to the fact that every aspect of this guy's personality is 100% calculated and image completely manfactured. The guys that go out of their way to publicly say they are a religious person over and over are usually the one's with dirty secrets. Russell's twitter feed is like reading the bible. Cam is a pretty religious guy, too. But I can't recall one single time he's talked publicly about religion. Ever. This news is nothing more than another chance to laugh at NC State as far as I'm concerned. They retired his freaking jersey last week. They retired the jersey of a guy who was average at best and never won anything with them, then transferred to play and graduate at a different school. Their athletics are so crappy they're desperate to attach themselves to him since the SB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They retired his number because of what he did at Wisconsin and in the NFL. You can't really look at records. Not like he was surrounded by a lot of talent at State vs Wisconsin. I'm not saying he was great, but definitely better than average. The only reason he wasn't drafted in first couple of rounds is his height. Also, aren't you a UNC fan? And didn't Wilson go undefeated vs UNC, or am I remembering wrong. If so, that might explain some of the negative comments about Wilson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I don't pull for any of the ACC schools like 99% of people around here do. I graduated from UNC Charlotte. I find college athletics boring. I stand by my statements, though. Wilson's jersey being retired by State is hilarious and a joke. "Better than average" doesn't get your jersey retired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor703 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Sometimes things just don't work out and it's better to cut your losses. Russell is and probably already has been having fun with other ladies and while I'm completely against infidelity I'm also completely against young sports stars getting married early. Might as well have some fun if you're in that situation lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sinister Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 May just be the beginning of the media going after Russ this year, especially if there is some "Stuff" that starts to leak out. If Griffin balls out this year (which I fully expect him too), that most wanted list is going to be pretty barren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebluefood Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 The only thing I know about Russell's time at NC State is that this happened, I was there to see it and it was one of the greatest moments of my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewCliche21 Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Just heard about this. So Seattle cheats not just on PEDs but also with teammates' wives. Wow. I hope this works out as best as it can for Wilson and his wife, but man, could you imagine what this would be like if it happened to RGIII? We'd never hear the end of it.

daveakl Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Funny enough, I just talked to a guy that is in Seattle. He's high up in his company to the point I would believe he knows a lot of the players on the seahawks. He told me tate banged Aston in the teams club house.

SWFLSkins Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Word? If true, that is really low on Tate and Ashton's part. But the Russell rumors would trump that. It is widely rumored he hits it with any blond he can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other news, I think there is something seriously wrong with Golden Tate anyway...... Like neurologically. Dudes never seemed quite right to me. Wouldn't put that rumor past him.

BRAVEONTHEWARPATH93 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 1)I thought that was his mom that happened to be attractive n that pic for the longest time. 2) I have to admit this thread makes us look no better than the fans that kill Griff for breathing. Why do we care if he cheated on his wife ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
