PJ Flower is still better than those oxidized Taittinger Artist Series bottles I sold to Manny Ramirez when he was in Boston… [wink.gif]

#3

PJ Fleur will always have baller status. I’ve been seeing it popped in MIA for 5+ years.

#4

I’m appalled that he paid $350 each. That said, have you considered that perhaps the restaurant didn’t have 25 bottles of anything else? I can just see it now. “I’ll have 25 bottles of Bollinger RD (or Pol Roger WC), please.” Don’t think so.

#5

Why does he have to buy 25 bottles of the same thing?

#6

Dunno. Why do?

#7

This is where I chime in with the obligatory. I don’t give a rats ass what he drinks as long as he posts more than 25 sacks over the next 6 years…
Bears…

#9

4.1667 sacks a year is’t a lot.

#10

Amen.

Two great seasons, or so, and several forgettable ones…I don’t get it.

#11

he had 6 seasons out of 8 with 10+ sacks with a whole bunch of tackles to go along with it. Isn’t too often a 6’7 300 lb dude with a 4.7 40 gets on the market.

Also, I was at a club where the Vueve yellow label was $400. That was an atrocity.
