I wish somebody could find the peanut butter and jelly quotes. He was interviewed for a newspaper in Escambia and talked about how they didn't have enough money but for peanut butter sandwiches. Sometimes they could get jelly. But now that he was going to Bama, his family was going to be taken care of. They get steaks now.
Or some shit like that.
Edit:
Reference to PBJ, but this isn't it:

He was raised with lots of love but never had much materially, if anything at all. He can remember eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for dinner but also recalls never longing for more than he had.
I guess he's got enough for three houses, two rental cars and a shitload of tats. Not to mention a pile of suits.

Richardson is putting in brutal hours to make his football player's body work for him. It was high noon on a recent weekday before the start of school when Richardson pulled up to the Escambia Bay bluffs in his maroon 2001 Dodge Durango (Guess he moved up...)
His grandmother, Gloria Richardson, with whom he lives, retired as a city bus driver last year and now drives a school bus. His mother, Katrina Richardson, cares for elderly people. His father, to whom he wasn't very close, died a few years back. He has six brothers, including Terrell Richardson, a defensive end at Louisiana-Lafayette. "It was my mother and grandmother and brothers who I was closest to," he said. "It was just us. My mother always had to work for everything, but we never had a lot — just what we needed. There were a lot of times when we were just eating peanut butter and jelly. We never had the fancy clothes or things that everyone else had. It's been tough on her "He feels the pressure of succeeding on the field and off. He's trying to raise his grade-point average from "about 3.0" to 3.5. He doesn't go out partying much, preferring to train for football or hang out at his house or the quarterback's house playing video games and relaxing. "I've got to make sure I don't mess up. I have to make sure I go to class every day and take care of my responsibilities, and my family is my responsibility," he said .A pro career is many games and runs down the road. But if he makes it, his family's life will be changed forever. "The money is out there. I grew up in Warrington Village and here (on Merritt Street.) It was tough. But it's all good now. "It's a dream now to make it out of here and get my family out of here. They deserve it."
And another...

"Growing up, I really didn't have too much," he said. "I just had my brothers and my mom. It's hard seeing my momma struggle. There have been nights we eat just peanut butter sandwiches, you know, with a little syrup on them or something like that. There have been nights like that, eating ramen noodles and stuff. I don't want to see my mom go through something like that."
None of these are it, though. Maybe it was a video. I just remember him saying they wouldn't have to eat peanut butter no more, they could have steak.

I remember that article, but can't find it anymore. I found the ESPN article where he stated that he grew up eating PB&J for dinner, because his family never had any money.
So, without money...how do you explain the suits, the vehicles, the move from Pensacola to Leeds in a house owned by a uat grad Denist, and the tattoos?

Glass houses, though. We got some tatted up motherfuckers, too. But most of our players had more than peanut butter to eat.

Hits keep coming (and being ignored by legitimate media)
http://www.sportsbybrooks.com/rogue-boosters-photo-trent-at-the-new-home-29855
Disassociated Alabama booster Tom Al-Betar posted the below photo of Alabama football star Trent Richardson to his now-deleted Facebook page on February 11, 2011:
(http://simg.sportsbybrooks.com/a/6/a61fccda3f4ddece6449194b56f2bade_trentrichardsonatthenewhome.jpg)
The description of the photo on Al-Betar’s Facebook page read, “Trent and his new Dog at the new home!”
That caption was followed by a comment by Al-Betar which noted of Richardson, “Mr. big # have new dig.”
Trent Richardson Katrina Richardson and Tom Al-Betar at T-Town Menswear
On the same day Al-Betar uploaded that photo to his defunct Facebook page, he posted a photo of Trent Richardson’s mother and the Crimson Tide running back’s two daughters with the photo description: “Trent and he’s Momm and kids dinner 2 days ago having fun with my boy.”
Richardson and/or his likeness has now been seen in subsequently-deleted Facebook photographs posted by Al-Betar:
1) In the above picture in which Al-Betar describes Richardson as being “at the new home!”
2) Inside Al-Betar’s T-Town Menswear store in Tuscaloosa repeatedly signing items used by Al-Betar as promotional store displays.
3) Inside Al-Betar’s T-Town Menswear store in Tuscaloosa signing multiple personalized memorabilia items for Al-Betar - some of which matched items for sale at an online auction site and a Birmingham mall kiosk.
4) Inside Al-Betar’s T-Town Menswear store in Tuscaloosa being fitted for - and picking up - new suits.
5) Out to dinner with Al-Betar on at least four different occasions. (Including at his own birthday party.)
And don’t forget Al-Betar confirming on video that he sells Alabama memorabilia inside his T-Town Menswear store - while standing in front of a storefront sign which reads, “‘Bama memorabilia DISPLAY ONLY NOT FOR SALE.”
With the photo-documented evidence of Richardson’s relationship with Al-Betar, court records of Richardson mother Katrina’s rental car-fueled 2010 move to Alabama, Richardson’s adoptive brother confirmed as member of the 2009 Brooks (AL) High School football team and now the “new home” photo posted by disassociated booster Al-Betar, might it be time for NCAA rules enforcement investigators to seek some answers from the University of Alabama?

The odds that bammer will wind up vacating games in which tRent Richardson played from the 2010-2011 seasons stands at 2/1.

You're using rational thought and logic.
Finebaum doesn't understand this stuff. It might as well be a lecture on the theory of relativity as delivered Chinese.
Every writer decided 30 seconds into this story that it was a "move along, nothing to see here" kind of thing, including Charles Robinson.
How the nation thinks this is no big deal, but Cam is 100% guilty beyond a shadow of a doubt, despite any evidence even remotely damning as this? Fuck if I can figure it out.
-
Reading through his Tweets today makes me rethink the entire case.
It was once just shady. Now it's starting to reveal the cause of the shadow.
She moved to Alabama, befriended Al-Betar (rich dude), and started driving nothing but rental cars?
-
Chilton County (AL) public court records show the attending Alabama Highway Patrol Officer reported on August 28, 2011, that Richardson was driving a “GMC YUKON” with a “Vehicle year” of 2011. The attending law enforcment officer also noted as part of the “Details” section of the speeding ticket that Richardson “STATED HIS LARGE RIMS THROW SPEEDOMETER OFF.”
Richardson is also noted as the owner of the GMC Yukon in the same speeding ticket.
Considering the NCAA has access to Richardson’s bank records - like all student-athletes under the auspices of the intercollegiate governing body - it wouldn’t take long for the NCAA to find out exactly how the Alabama star running back acquired a vehicle with a current sticker price of $38,945.
That’s without the “LARGE RIMS“.
I'm to the point that as a college football fan, Richardson should not be playing.
If we're playing the NCAA game of "as long as it's not public it's okay," then it's no longer okay.

Trent Richardson's 2011 Yukon With Nice Rims -- Nothing To See Here
Published on: September 27, 2011 | Written by: Clay Travis
On August 28th, 2011 Alabama running back Trent Richardson was pulled over for speeding in Chilton County, Alabama. The Crimson Tide star was going 85 in a 70 and the officer noted that he blamed the "large rims" on his vehicle for the speeding violation. What was the vehicle? A 2011 GMC Yukon which retails for in the neighborhood of $40,000 a year even without the added expense of new rims. Raise your hand if it makes sense that an "unemployed" athlete at Alabama with two children, no job, and a non-wealthy family could afford a brand new SUV. Put your hands down Alabama fans. Trent Richardson could be flying in his own private jet and you'd talk about how it's perfectly reasonable for him to avoid traffic this way.
For the rest of us Richardson driving a brand new SUV raises an awful lot of questions.
Especially when you consider that most of his money was already going to suit payments.
As a preliminary, I don't have any issue with Trent Richardson cashing in on his talents. It's morally indefensible to force any person of talent to work for free. I firmly believe that. That's why you've never heard me jump on the NCAA violation bandwagon from a moral perspective. The most immoral actor of all in college sports is the NCAA. The entire NCAA "amateurism" model is predicated on making as much money as possible off the free labor of others. Then, as if that wasn't indefensible enough, the entire enforcement procedure is based upon ensuring that those who have nothing at all, continue to have nothing at all.
The fact that college sports fans like you and me allow and support this model's continued existence is the outrage.
After all, you know what isn't an improper benefit? Rich parents.
If you're rich the NCAA has no power over you. If you're poor? Well, you're the NCAA's bitch.
The real immorality here is South Carolina forcing a player like Marcus Lattimore to run the ball 35 times a game, and the NFL not allowing Lattimore to cash in on his talents in the meantime. Put it this way, no matter what you do would you give up your job for a one-year scholarship guarantee? I didn't think so. What if I make the deal even worse? In addition to receiving no money, on every single play you risk career-ending injury that will render you forever unable to make a living off your talents. (See Prothro, Tyrone). Would anyone be willing to do this?
Of course not.
So I don't blame athletes for cashing in when the entire world surrounding them is making money off their talents. Hell, I'll tell you this, if I didn't have any money you can damn sure bet I would be taking cash payments for playing in college. All of that brings us back to Trent Richardson. Do I blame him for wanting a nice car? No. But do I love when Alabama fans come to his defense no matter what? Of course. Like I said on Twitter yesterday, what would Alabama fans be saying if Cam Newton had gotten a speeding ticket while driving in a brand new SUV with tricked out rims? They'd be outraged, fulminating at the mouth, but Trent Richardson does it? Oh, there are a ton of great, reasonable explanations.
So now, without further ado, here are Alabama fan excuses for why it's perfectly reasonable for Trent Richardson to be driving a $50,000 brand new SUV. (Note: these are not made up. Every single one of these was Tweeted or emailed to me since last night).
11. He got a loan based on his future earnings potential.
A worthy premise but, sigh, an NCAA violation.
If you get a loan based on your future earnings potential, you are no longer an amateur. Otherwise every college athlete in America could take out a million dollar line of credit and live like a rockstar on campus. (Note: the only exception to this rule is that you can take out an insurance policy to protect yourself in the event of catastrophic injury. But that doesn't allow you to buy a brand new SUV).
10. He's buying American, you hate America, Clay. Also, you're racist.
Yes, I hate America. And I'm racist. Well played and well reasoned. There's a job waiting for y'all as a Fox News commentator. There's also an inherent irony in the second most racist state in the union hurling racial accusations at others. So let's be clear since everyone in Alabama immediately latches on to race, if you're an unemployed college student with two kids and you're white, black, brown, green, blue, pink, any color under the rainbow, and you drive a brand new SUV, you've got some serious explaining to do.
I do love, however, the delicious irony of Alabama fans turning in to Al Sharpton disciples the moment an Alabama player is questioned.
Even Al Sharpton thinks y'all are pathetic with this line of thinking though.
9. He has enough money to buy a $50k SUV.
No, no he doesn't.
He has two children. That means he has child support payments of some sort or other. He also has no job. Plus, he has to feed and clothe himself.
The vast majority of employed fathers of two can't afford a brand new luxury SUV with tricked out rims. There is no way under the sun that Trent Richardson has the money to buy this SUV.
8. It's his friend's car.
Isn't it always convenient how the "friend" never has a worse car in these situations? Like, Trent Richardson wasn't pulled over for speeding in a 1976 Monte Carlo. It's amazing how the "friends" are always so much richer.
7. It's a loaner, his car is in the shop.
Ah, yes.
The good ole loaner defense. Next thing you know Richardson will be test-driving the car across the country a la Terrelle Pryor.
News flash: You don't get a valuable car as a loaner unless you also leave behind a valuable car to be repaired.
6. Clay, rims do make it seem like your car is going faster.
The number of people who focused on Trent Richardson's speeding excuse rather than the expensive SUV is simply amazing.
Proving that if you dangle a bright and shiny object in front of some people, they really will grab the bright and shiny object. Cue Johnnie Cochran.
Prosecution: The odds of O.J. Simpson's DNA ending up here at the murder scene are 1 billion to one.
Cochran: If the glove doesn't fit, you must acquit.
5. You and Sports By Brooks are gay.
This is my favorite response any time I write anything negative about Alabama. Crimson Tide fans accuse me and Sports By Brooks of being gay. And not just a few. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 40% of Alabama fan responses accuse us of being gay. Usually they write it this way: "Your gay."
Aside from the second grade nature of the insult and the clear presumption that gay people are always lying, let's play this defense out to it's logical extension: aren't Bama fans really arguing that gay people are obsessed with NCAA violations in college athletics?
So if you walk up to a New York bar, a great opening line for gay men is, "Can you believe the new revisions to NCAA bylaw 16?"
Go to a gay man's apartment and there's a 100% chance the NCAA rulebook is open on the coffee table. Don't believe me? DVR old episodes of "Will and Grace." See it, there's the manual!
4. He sold his T-Town Menswear suits and autographs.
At least this excuse was honest.
An NCAA violation, but honest.
3. "HE IS A FAMILY MAN and he spend that much on that car to have a safe ride for his children and family. worthy for the cost."
This is according to @deeptrunk on Twitter. Yes, tricked out rims are the modern-day Volvos.
2. He has a rich uncle (or aunt).
Yes, of course, the Daddy Warbucks defense.
Where was that rich aunt or uncle for the previous 20 years of Richardson's life?
1. Yeah, but Cam Newton...
It always comes back to Cam Newton for Alabama fans. No matter what anyone else does, the first response out of most Alabama fans' mouths is, "Yeah, but Cam Netwon..."
So I'll finish this sentence for you, "Yeah, but Cam Newton didn't get pulled over driving a brand new luxury SUV at Auburn."
...
Okay, today's contest in the comments, funniest wins an OKTC prize pack: Come up with the best excuse for how Trent Richardson ended up with this car. Funniest wins.

Somebody needs to get out of the house and do a little edging, don't ya' think? And maybe getting the sprinklers out and puttin' a little water to it would make the yard green up much more evenly. A bag or two of Scotts with weed control in the early spring couldn't hurt either.
-
First off, Clay is hiding behind his feigned disdain for the NCAA and their policies. Dude, you're trying to nail a story to further your site and your career. Call it like it is.
Second, a Yukon that costs $40,000.00 a year is just too much.
Third, the 2011 Yukon is sweet. Personally, I wouldn't trick it out with the rimz. I'm too old for that and I'd look stupid. Actually, I look pretty stupid now driving that beat up ass 2001 Expedition.

Repeat a lie, or in Cam's case, what they want to be true over and over, and it will eventually become fact. The Cam case was driven by local media, despite the national outlets that reported on it.
-
He had a SECOND CAR?!?!?!
Good lord...it couldn't be more blatant.
But I'm just inferring. Nothing illegal actually happened. This is a definite case of how the NCAA is the one with the problem.
And as for the DirecTV dishes, well, that doesn't mean much. I have two dishes on my back deck, but that's because I've been too lazy to take the old one down.

Well if you start trimming the shrubbery around your deck be sure to keep it trimmed. Prickly bushes will annoy any female partygoers that may want to play on your deck.

CRAZY: Poor black people can’t afford to move, according to Sports By Brooks
S ports By Brooks has descended into lunacy. I’ve always defended the website, but the obsession with a non-story has led Brooks to reveal a disturbing element of his personality. Judge for yourself.
Brooks posted a long list of documents showing that Trent Richardson’s family moved to Alabama. This move was something the Pensacola newspaper already reported. Why the need to post all those useless documents? Who knows. It wasn’t a secret. But, this is where it gets interesting.
And very disturbing.
Brooks writes, “With the Richardson family of modest means, it isn’t unreasonable to think that the the (sic) funding of their now-documented move from Pensacola to various locations within the state of Alabama may be outside of NCAA rules.” (Source)
It isn’t?
By Brooks logic, we can reasonably assume that poor people can’t afford to move?
Or, is it that black people can’t afford to move?
Or, maybe poor black people?
Which is it? Because a couple of these reveals a serious problem in the author of this Internet nonsense.
With Brooks’ assertion it isn’t unreasonable to assume he is a racist.
People of “modest means” can afford to do more than you think. Living in Leeds, Alabama is not expensive–it isn’t Vestavia Hills or Mountain Brook or even Hoover. How difficult is it to rent a home? I know people of “modest means” do it on a daily basis. How expensive is it to move? Even poor people can find ways to do it.
Brooks needs to move beyond the plantation mentality and realize this is a new age. It is an age where black people can do all sorts of things. Even when they are of “modest means.”
This latest post by Brooks is disturbing.

Nothing like watching two idiots do e-battle. I will say however, that isn't a high dollar establishment she's living in. I'd say $60,000 tops for that neighborhood. Hell, it has masonite siding on it. And I still don't understand why it's considered luxurious to have 2 satellite dishes??
The article is actually intelligent on Shane's part though. The fastest way to get someone to STFU in today's society is to imply they are racist. Doesn't matter if it's true or not. Most of the time it works.

Don't forget about when he was involved in a hit-and-run and the Tuscaloosa police were adamant about not releasing any details, and Trent declined to press charges...
Nothing to see, I'm sure.

$60,000 is with one Direct TV Satellite Dish....$100,000 with two.
I remember a statement about uat's compliance saying something about educating the players on accepting benefits from people outside of their family, as well as educating the family members of the players....this answer was in regards to a question about "Rent" Richardson and his association with Ttown Tom.
-

This is really all that needs to be said. Except it's 3. Add in Travis too.
Snaggle is right. Auburn fans can get giddy about this stuff all they want, but Travis and Brooks are merely dirt diggers who do this to only further their sites and careers (fast and loose terminology). They careless about any school not named Georgia or Tennessee. Auburn fans forget quickly a lot of the slander both of these clowns through our way via Cam and the Hostess stories.
-
Cam had zilch for evidence.
Tigerettes were legally paid according to NCAA rules.
Trent Richardson driving multiple brand new vehicles when he has two kids? Concrete evidence of this? Al-Betar, a rich man in T-Town, being close with Richardson's family along with other players? The merchandise?
Sorry. That's light years ahead of where the Auburn allegations were.

Sorry. That's light years ahead of where the Auburn allegations were.
What I am saying is that, whether there is evidence or not, these guys are the bottom of the gutter crap peddlers. If they find something with evidence, then fine. But when they don't have any, they will just make shit up and imply. They don't need evidence, it's just icing to them. They are both pieces of shit IMHO. Even National Enquirer gets it right once in a while. So did Jerry Springer.

1 right for every 10 other stories that are crap.
AU Hostesses - remember what he did to them. Remember the ammo it gave Finebaum.
The guy is a mixed bag, and peddles these stories (right or wrong) for ratings and self promotion.

Dan Wetzel interviewed Clay about this recently.

Well damn...I stand corrected. Maybe it does have some little stick legs at least now.

Pointing out suspicious or questionable behavior and circumstances is hardly shitty journalism. It's not Putzlighter Prize winning, but if all the pictures are factual, if the circumstances are that Trent and his family never had a pot to piss in until he got to bammer, then suddenly they're like Weezie and George, then it needs to be questioned. Could there be a legit answer for it all? Yes, but who fucking knows. Are Brooks and Travis ethical journalist? Fuck no, but even a shitbag finds a real story now and then. All the pics of vehicles, suits, T Town Tom, etc are evidence of nothing...yet. They reveal things that are clearly suspicious.
And we all know how if this were Auburn players, Finesuckmycockbaum would have no trouble at all "understanding it". We all know that the local media would be tipping the national media to help it get bigger legs.
It is what it is.

I think I already said the bolded in my earlier post.
Still doesn't change the fact that they are both dirt diggers and pot stirrers that self promote, solely for their own benefit. Do you really think Brooks cares about justice being served? Hell no, he has an obsession (like most media types do) with being the first to get a scoop or break a story. He creamed over the Robinson piece on Miami for weeks. Dude just gets off on finding shit - whether it has merit or not.
And to your last paragraph - you are right JR. These 2 scumbags were the biggest perpetuators of the Cam stuff. Clay Travis still says to this day that he knows for a fact we bought a QB, and a NC.

Thanks. I feel the exact same way. Brooks is nothing more than a Georgia homer and Clay is nothing more than a TN homer.

That's why no real media member gives a fuck about what Brooks says. That $40,000 vehicle just went down to a $20,000 vehicle, depending on what type of shape it's actually in.
Fuck Brooks.
Also, that's what a real citation looks like in the State of Alabama. Not that piece of shit document Brooks posted. I'm guessing the "year" Brooks' stupid ass highlighted on his post is the tag registration year, and not the year model of the vehicle. He's such a fucking joke.

Not saying it does.
He's The Enquirer. Sometimes he gets it right. Most times he doesn't. Every time it's sensationalized.
But the Richardson stuff? He's not driving that bus. It's being handed to him and he's just the only vehicle that will carry it (for now).

It's funny to me that the people that hated Brooks a year ago now post his shit. And the people that loved him a year ago, now think he is a hack.
The best line in Shane's piece was "I have always defended Brooks". HAH...no shit. Why is that Shane? What is he doing now that he hasn't done while you "defended him"??
Shane doesn't even get it. You can't praise him when he making shit up and trying to ass rape your rival, and then try and discredit him when he does it to your team. You can't have it both ways.
So remember that...PROWLER...because he will turn again...

Many of the same people who hailed Melchior as a crusading journalist fighting the good fight now hurl verbal brickbats at the muckraking weasel who’ll stoop to any level to draw attention.
Some of those who were spitting on his name suddenly revel in his forthrightness.
Brooks didn’t change.

You summed up my whole stance. I think you go all or none with these clowns. I don't like them or their agenda/motive ever. Its hypocrisy to discredit and credit him when it's convenient.

Hostess allegations not equal to Trent Scoop or OSU scoop.
Brooks DOES change. 10% of the time he's right, 90% of the time he's full of shit. And he peddles it all as the same.

The Charger is old and busted. Yukons are the new hotness.

I'm gonna' have to nutt up and go get a new SUV soon. I've said I'll drive this crappy ass Expedition (paid for) until the wheels fall off. The wheels are falling off. Yukon may be in the mix.
Lost in all of this is the fact that for Brooks and Travis etc. to have information like what AJ McYukon is driving, there has to be someone stalking college kids. :facepalm:

HA! I actually did the same thing last year. Damn 02 expedition had 272K on it before I finally let it go. Everything that mattered still worked on it but little things were starting to go south (freon, blower motor, sunroof). It was nice having a paid for car for several years.
Guess to be cool I am gonna have to go get me a Govt Motors Yukon.

You do more driving than me. Mine is an 01' and I've got just under 160K. Yep, everything that matters still works and I sunk a couple of grand into it first of this year to get everything back up to speed. I have no car payments on any of our vehicles and I'm in the process of refinancing the house to get some of that 3.75% money and lower my payments about $600.00. I do NOT want to go back to having a car payment.
Unfortunately....

Not having a car payment is nice. Having to pay $200 at a time when the little shit starts to go bad, not so much. Then again, $200 every 6 months beats the hell out of a monthly payment on a new one.
-
I was in the no car payment boat, and doing like AUTiger said, so I broke down and bought a Sonata. I really like the car and the payment isn't that bad when you figure in how much gas money I was spending a week in my Z71.

Befriend a local wholesaler and go with him one day to the auction in Moody. You can find a relatively new bank repo for cheap. Saw a nice 2011 Toyota Corolla roll across the floor $9200 a few weeks ago. Had some nice SUVs also, but don't remember what they all went for. Much cheaper than paying lot price though.

Or, if you have college eligibility left, develop some serious football skillz and sign with bama. Of course, your vehicle choices will be limited, but the ladies don't care what you drive when you have VIP access to the Japanese steakhouse.

Btw, Brooks isn't doing anything but posting photographs and commenting on what those photographs are...also, he is being fed the information from someone else. There is more. The REC are scrambling to find the person or people that're giving Brookie the 411. Here's the AJ McYukon two Yukons within 15 days, two traffic citations within 15 days.

So, Brooks doesn't really know what the fuck he is talking about, he's basically just giving his opinion on what he thinks is happening. And he doesn't actually do any real investigative work.
Thanks for clearing that up. I'm sure that hasn't been covered already.

Yeah, for people like you who are saying that he's making shit up just for viewers. I know he's wanting more viewers and uat is a hot topic in College Football, throw in photographs of Booster(s) taking current players out to Dinner, at their apartment, setting up an "assembly line" of autographed memoralbilia with one photo showing what's rumored to be Greg Gamble picking up a stack of signed jerseys by Julio. Photos of the star RB pumping gas in a new Yukon, player's parents moving from Pensacola, Fl. to Leeds, Al. after having nothing but peanut butter sammiches. Documents of the star QB and his traffic tickets while driving two different Yukons. Photos of current uat coach Bobby Williams in the ttown menswear store that had all of the player's signed memoralbilia on display to promote the business "I've been dressing the uat players since '96."

Except for a traffic ticket in which he clearly implies that Richardson is driving a brand spanking new yukon worth $45,000, when in reality, it's 4 years old and not even worth half that value? Yeah, he's just calling it like he sees it.
Carry on.
