Bands often have to tour just to make money to live even though they made millions in the 80's. Sure, they could rent a one bedroom apartment somewhere and sell their 4 properties, but they don't even think that way. Todd Marinavich made enough money to pay him $65,000 a year without working a day for 40 years. You can't just put that kind of money in a bank savings account.
    True. But that's not the same with Johnny's family and money. I believe they have made their wealth in oil down in Texas. So they and he are rich and actually have the money not just investments. I know this because I went to school with and know Johnny's cousin. He mentioned one day if I was gonna watch his cousin play on TV. I was like sure, who is he and what team does he play for. Then he told me it was Manziel. My response was holy shit Johnny Football is your cousin. HA! This happened Johnny's last year in college. Then we chatted about the other issues that were going along with Manziel earlier that season. I think it was some story Manziel meeting with some guy to sale his autograph or something and that guy supposedly paid him X amount of money. I can't remember the exact number but I think it was around $12,000 or something close. When I brought that up to my friend, that's when I found out that the story was basically a big lie. The guy that Manziel met with was a friend and he didn't pay him anything. Also, if Johnny actually needed money he could easily get it from his family. The way he made it sound like was that $12,000 is basically no big deal. Then my buddy told me about Manziel's family and how wealthy they are. The funny thing about my buddy is that he was praying that Oakland didn't draft him cause my friend is a Broncos fan. But to make a long story short, too late, is that Manziel's account is drained and he's only living the "straight" life because he wants/needs another pay day.

    If he's taking it seriously, working out, drinking water rather than booze, then why not? He's probably better than Connor Cook.
