HH networking is a fucking joke

Point taken but that was 3 or 4 generations ago, Pops.RaceBannon said:Let's put it this way
Steve Largent went to Tulsa U but will never have to buy a drink in Seattle again. He doesn't drink but still. He went back to Oklahoma and won a Congress seat because no way Seattle voters go for him. But he didn't win in Oklahoma because he went to Tulsa. He won because he made the NFL HOF
Curt Warner went to Penn State but started car dealerships in Seattle after his HAWK career.
Point is the NFL career is the most important to the future,
Sonny Sixkiller had no NFL career so he does Native Casinos ads @Swaye
I remember renting a house in Seattle way back in the day and Tom Flick was the agent. Being a college star in Seattle is worth something
Odds are his millions will be made on a yet-to-be-designed social engineering, er social networking, platform of some type, probably involving cat or dog videos.
Who knows what people will pay good money for in 10, 20 or 30 years? -

I don't think regional or geographic loyalties have the pull they once had now things are so interconnected through the web.RaceBannon said:

And Smalls is all about blowing up Social Networking, where there's little tether to his hometown or NFL town roots.
I don't think Michael Jordan pays for a drink anywhere, not just Chicago. And I think that's where it's headed. -
Smalls falls into the NFL category

Well, I Tee'd that one up rather nicely for you, didn't I?RaceBannon said:Smalls falls into the NFL category
I would've said LT, but he's got all those drug arrests. Or maybe OJ, until his minor scrape with the law in '94.
I can't really think of an NFL guy who doesn't buy a drink anywhere, but I'm sure there are some, or else that day is coming. Maybe Smalls is THE guy. -
The most borderline NFL player, the undrafted one who spends three years on a practice squad and plays in four NFL games in their entire career, make about $200k per year.
They then reap the benefits of being a college star/NFL player for life.
But yeah, chose the business school where you’ll get a starting salary $8k more per year because you went to a better school. Right now I hire people. You know how much I care if they went to Oregon State or UNLV or Sonoma State or whatever the fuck directional state U?
They get to network! Because a star football player needs to go to luncheons and buy a round for everyone to remember who he is. -
I've wondered about the reality of this. What are the benefits. I'm sure in some places it is the case and there is some name recognition benefit. However I've been to events and see purported fans of the Redskins fail to recognize Doug fucking Williams, not to mention numerous other former players.RatherBeBrewing said:

They might not recognize the face, but they recognize the name. In marketing most businesses, the name is all that matters.whlinder said:

The benefits of choosing UW come up every year. Smalls isn’t thinking about networking after football. No 5 star is.
