unbillievable

I was just behind a car that stopped at the "stop ahead" sign. Wasn't on an intersection. Just a straight residential street. I'm ready for self driving cars.

We cite the one time we heard an AI did something stupid somewhere... ...but prefer dealing with dozens of stupid drivers commuting to work everyday. Remember, 90% of the time, an AI is flying the plane.

It would have to be a Max. $500k/yr is what they usually pay out to people who are found innocent after being in prison for years. Your wife would understand that.

Million dollar homes.... How does an insurance assessor determine replacement value for an entire city?

. I'm wondering how much an ocean-front house in Hawaii is worth. Most of the residents will probably sell their property to Oprah and move to a lower cost of living state, like Texas.

If you had a choice of going to prison for $500k/yr, how long would you stay?

He knew about it, but says that he believed it was the same as adoption. The only thing an adoption grants an adult are heredity rights on the family's estate. Oher wants some of that $200mil Tuoy money!

A star athlete who was flunking out of school. Articles say OHER tested with a 80 IQ. Forest Gump had a 75IQ. The narrative is that he was not motivated and the tests were biased... https://www.biography.com/movies-tv/the-blind-side-true-story-michael-oher

I don't believe that Oher just found out. I think the betrayal comes from an expectation that the Conservatorship would eventually lead to full adoption; A placeholder. That would explain why it remained active all this time. It was a symbol of his inclusion in the family even if it was never exercised. All indications are that Oher never lost control of his personal finances.

I think I got the narrative now: The Tuoy's were boosters for Ole Miss, so the only way for Oher to attend was for him to be under their guardianship. Since he turned 18 the equivalent would be a Conservatorship. Michael was told it was the same as adoption. (Legal guardian = adoption? maybe?) Adoption would also work, but that can take years. That is probably what the Lawyers told everyone. The alternative was to pick another school. According to the Tuoy's they got $14k each (including Michael) plus royalties; each pocketing $70k. Oher says they got about $2.5mil total with him getting nothing. This is the lawsuit. The Tuoys confirmed that Oher is still under conservatorship (Why?) giving them control over Oher's finances. According to Tuoy's the trouble began in 2022, which coincidentally is when Michael got married. They volunteered to end the Conservatorship. If the Tuoy's were in control, that probably means that Oher's $16mil NFL earnings is probably intact, and will be released to his control now. If the Conservatorship was in name only, Oher might be broke as many are surmising.

I did some research and the state granted Conservatorship because Oher was poor. "Impoverishment" is a qualifying disability. This lawsuit maybe about Oher getting control of his personal finances.

Why would the NCAA require an adoption/conservatorship to attend Ole Miss? Is there a rule I'm not familiar with?

Fun Fact: Bullock won best actress for "Blindside" the same year she won worst actress for "All about Steve." 2009

Blindside was nominated for Best Movie of the Year!

From what I read, He doesn't just sign random papers. There has to be a hearing of some kind where professionals are involved, a doctor and judge usually, with proof of an inability for an adult to handle their responsibilities. Life isn't like the Little Mermaid movie.

Why was a conservatorship granted? Doesn't it require a Doctor or Psychologist along with a Judge signing off on it? What was wrong with Oher that the Tuoys were given adult guardianship?

depends on who you ask. Oher is claiming Millions. Tuoys are claiming they split thousands. Considering their net worth, just pay Oher and cut ties. He can buy a TEsla to live in...

He would have never made eligibility. Even if he somehow self improved from F's to A's in school, how could he afford the online classes and lawyers to fight the NCAA.

I think there is still a community making text based games out there.

Extend O'cyrus now!

Would Oher have been eligible if Kathy Bates hadn't tutored him?

When you're getting Millions, would you notice if you're not getting hundreds?

Staying that close to the Falls... ...does the sound of the water make you want to pee all the time?

The case will hinge on whether signing the Conservatorship took away Oher's ability to reject the making of "Blindside"

I heard from the Hollywood Writer's strike that they only get pennies from these residuals.
