Josh Britt unverified Breakup rumour

Actually, armies of all countries in the Napoleonic era had camp followers who were married to soldiers and "followed the drum", often with a couple of their kids.  The army brass supported this because the women laundered, mended, and cooked for their men and his fellows, nursed them when they were ill or wounded, and worked as servants for the officers and their upper-class wives (many of whom were also "following the drum" in a more luxurious manner).   On the other hand, when the army had to retreat, the women became a hindrance and their safety could become a distraction to their husbands.  After Waterloo, the practice died out.

 

Officially it was 6 women per 100 men, drawn by lot from those who could actually provide "marriage lines".  For an army of 120,000 men, that means there would be 7,200 women.  Unofficially, more would sneak along.  Undoubtedly, some prostitution took place, but the point is, many of the women who moved with the army were wives and mothers accompanying their men.  They struggled to accompany the army and endure incredible hardships for varied motives, but one, plain and simple, was to avoid starvation.  Soldiers' wages were paid to the men, there were no bank transfers or arrangements for remote payment of all or part of the wage, so accompanying their husband for years of war might be the only way the wife would receive any money.

 

I'm bringing this up because it highlights how assumptions and perceptions of women can diverge from historical reality, even when someone is trying to make a positive point.

Well stated and interesting.

Well if you don't know as Paul Harvey said "the rest of the story" so because i didn't know that there was infidelity i would definitely change my thoughts but most of those young women dating high priced athletes are there for the money in any way they can get it .

 

So my bad on that but my opinion will stay the same in respect to most of the women around athletes ...

 

I'm kind of curious how many women dating athletes you actually know?

 

I'm sure athletes who go out clubbing meet a lot of women who are attracted to their money and fame.  Not to mention, as discussed in this thread, the physical appearance some of them have (hubba, hubba).

 

But there's also a reason a lot of these athletes who "could do better" stick with women who they met in HS or college, before they were famous - women who might not look as "hot" and you say "they could do better", but these women were there for them emotionally and mentally before there was a lot of money in the picture.

Well, my wife dated an NBA star from Spain that had a solid good guy rep.  He didn't go out with the other players.  I know his mom was a doctor. I think his dad was too.  He was well read, educated. But.... He got engaged to a woman from his home country and she didn't even know he was dating her. She was going on family vacations etc with him for over 6 mo.  Met his parents and family, being flown out to games across the country, etc. He was a really nice dude but when she found out he got engaged she ended it. She had to sign waivers just to go to the club houses and locker rooms that the WAGs called "rapey waivers." 

 

He ended up marrying that chick, fwiw... But 3-5 years ago emailed her and asked her to come to a game. 

 

Levi found a high school picture of him once and it was hilarious to see the transition.

We knew some very high profile people from the music world when living in Florida. They could not/would not go out without a private room, with very few exceptions. Mostly it was dinner parties at each others homes. Of course, we weren’t 20-somethings at that point (and were almost all married, to the extent that matters). 


I ram into you in Appleton, WI. Does that count for anything in this thread?

I one time sat at a table with Thurman and this girl I worked with at Waterbeds and Stuff. She brought a blonde-haired friend along. At the end of the night, Thurman writes his number on a piece of paper and slides it into her front pocket, and lets his hand "linger" in the pocket for a few extra seconds. 

 

But I also went to high school with his wife Patti. She literally turned the other way with Thurman's extracurricular activities. They have a very healthy and strong marriage today.

I’m afraid it won’t get you a date with Britt. Do you want me to inquire with @mead107 about a few meadcoins? 

 

Did you run into me, or ram into me in Appleton? That might make a difference.  🤷‍♂️

 

 

Seriously, did we meet in Appleton? Where was it? I met a bunch of Bills fans on that trip. Great trip, if not a great game.

We met at the festival that was going on and walked to the hotel where the busses pulled up with the team and employees.

My sister lives there and knew the hotel and the routine. Somehow they knew when the team was arriving. That was actually pretty cool. I had never seen them coming off the buses together. 

 

That was a lot of fun, as it always is meeting up with Bills fans, especially on the road.

In all respect (simp warning!), Britt was definitely wife material. The fact Josh didn't tie the knot with her as supportive as she was, but kept her front and center, made it seem like they were headed for that. If he did make a mistake as crazy as the rumor is, IMO it's a serious mistake on his part and one that seems completely out of character. 99.9% of the women I know or see on social from Buffalo seemed to like her and they dated for 7 years, so this will be different if they did break up, 7 years together is a long time. And by all indications, she's mostly scrubbed him from her platform. So I'm still indifferent on this until we know more. K bye!

She’s not getting any money, I’d let her have the dog.


If she continues to go on extravagant vacations there’s a high likelihood that she isn’t “getting any money” and already “got money” to keep her mouth shut. 
 

The Bills really did find their next Jim Kelly. Way to go Josh….

I don’t know if you’re joking. Or maybe I’m missing the joke?

 

Jim Kelly was (is?) a douche. 

Jim aside. It seems like there’s been enough confirmations that 1. They broke up and 2. Josh messed up.

 

What nobody has been able to confirm is whether or not there is a child.

 

But there seems to be enough smoke to suggest Josh screwed up, and we’ll likely never “know” the rest. Just like we never “knew” anything about any other players, celebrities, etc.

And yet now that he's single, every single one of those women are wishing Josh puts a baby into them. They don't give a ***** about Brittany anymore

Kelly along with many Bills stars of the 90s were absolute douches.

I am not joking. JK was a womanizing douche before settling down... You  don't remember the stories?
