Antonio Cromartie might want to consider appearing on the hit TV show “Family Feud.”

The free-agent NFL cornerback is trying to evict his mother from a house in Florida that he bought her, TMZ reported Friday. Cromatie served his mom eviction papers, which state she must leave the property by Monday unless she makes a payment of $2,300.

Cromartie’s representative told TMZ that his client’s mother was making the monthly $700 mortgage payments since 2011 but stopped doing so in June.

“We’re told the mother refused (to pay the mortgage) — insisting (Cromartie), who’s made millions in his career, should pay since the house was supposed to be a gift,” TMZ wrote, citing Cromartie’s sister LaQuinta Gardner.

As expected, Cromartie’s decision has angered his family members. Cromartie is a father of 12 children and currently seeks a new employer in the NFL. His representative says his children are his financial priority and that he his mother and her husband can afford to support themselves. Be it in the house he bought as a “gift” or somewhere else.

Shit like this happened around here:
Tebucky Jones (N.E. Patriots) bought his Mom a condo. She didn't keep up condo fees/taxes so he let her get evicted.
She had substance dependence issues so she did herself in.
 
You gotta be a cold SOB to evict your own momma. But, who knows what type of arrangements A.C. and his moms made when he got her the house? Lastly, if moms don't wanna pay $700 for mortgage, then why didn't her husband step up to pay it?

I know that I would take major issue with a grown ass man living in my house and not paying any rent/mortgage.
 
I hope his wife is paying attention. He won't be able to pay for all those kids.

His wife will be on a reality show soon and selling clothes on those Instagram boutiques in about 3 years top. He'll be coaching junior high football in 4.
 
when Oprah be buying people cars and shit......they gotta take care of the taxes, insurance, upkeep, etc. themselves.
eventho the car was a gift, you cant expect Oprah to pay your car insurance and parking tickets too.
That car gets impounded.....thats on you.


now unless his mom has just been really shitty to em and taking advantage of em......i can understand.......tough love gotta be shown.
but if he doin it out of spite......then he's just a bitch ass nigga.
 
the gift was the downpayment and closing costs..most likely furnishings as well.

and if the mortgage payments were only 700 per month :smh::smh::smh:
 
His ass shouldnt have deemed it a gift. Ive never heard of a gift you have to pay for. He should have said the down payment was a fucking gift...

how do you know he didn't say that ?

if she thought anything different why was she paying mortgage at all ?

sounds like some Judge Mathis shit......It wasn't a loan it was a gift . then why did you make payments ?
 
I mean if it was truly a gift :dunno:

But why pay for that "Gift" for 5 years and all of a sudden she doesn't want to pay because now it's a "Gift"?
 
Shit don't surprise me. People read "mom", and heart automatically starts to melt. That is cool, but that ain't the relationship everybody have with their mother/parents.

Some parents develop major entitlement issues when their kids "make it". Not that you shouldn't help, but what they think you should do and what you think ain't always the same.

Shit, I just read an article about a NFL player whose mother told him after he got drafted that he needed to cut her a 1m check for everything she did for him.
 
Trent Richardson says his family and friends spent $1.6 million in 10 months
Richardson detailed his financial issues on an 'E:60' segment


Former Browns and Colts running back Trent Richardson is widely considered one of the biggest busts in NFL history. Hyped as one of the best running back prospects of his generation, Richardson averaged 3.3 yards per carry through three NFL seasons and hasn't played in a regular-season game since 2014. The only player in league history with at least 600 career carries and a lower per-carry average is Brett Favre.

Richardson also spent time during the offseason on the Raiders (2015) and Ravens (2016) rosters.

Richardson's troubles did not end there, though, as we learned in an E:60 segment hosted on his financial issues hosted by ESPN's Shelley Smith.



Among some choice quotes:

  • Richardson, on his state of mind: "It's scary to have all that much money in the world and not be happy. It's almost like you broke and broken-hearted."
  • Richardson on his family: "I could remember in the game I was thinking about, 'Did everybody get tickets?' I had like 30 or 40-something tickets and I'm thinking about this stuff in the game. I'm actually looking up in the box, making sure that my people are in there."
  • Richardson on finding out his family and friends spent $1.6 million of his money in 10 months: "I finally just looked at my bank statement, and I was just like, 'Where did this come from? Where did that come from?' And my guy was sitting there telling me, 'Man, we was telling you.' I know he was telling me, but that's just like telling a kid to stop running in the hall. They're going to still do it when you turn your back or you leave. It's just one of them moments to where I was just blinded by my heart, by loving everybody and thinking that everyone was for me. I know they love me. I know they do care. But at the time, they took advantage of me."
  • Richardson on finding out he had 11 Netflix accounts and eight Hulu accounts under his name, as well as multiple charges on Amazon.com and for bottle service at clubs: "I don't even get on the Internet like that, and I don't even drink."
  • Richardson on suspicious disappearance of money: "There's been money missing that I didn't know about. Did I get it back? No."


Upon entering the NFL on a four-year $20.5 million contract, Richardson bought a six-bedroom house in Cleveland with an outdoor kitchen and an arcade room for $825,000. He also rented a house for his mother nearby and bought his grandmother a five-bedroom house for $350,000 in Pensacola, Fla.

"He felt like he was obligated to bring all these people with him. He didn't want to leave anybody behind," Richardson's friend Ladaron Clardy said.

And that wasn't all he used his money for:

Richardson: "I just made sure that my immediate family was taken care of. And so then it came to everybody outside immediate family. You got people coming from everywhere."

Smith: "What kind of calls did you get?"

Richardson: "You get calls, 'Man, my car's gonna get repo'd.' So I'm like 'OK, how much is it? Oh that's it? Alright, I'll send it to you.' Send it out to em."

Smith: "How did you send it? Wire it?"

Richardson: "Wire it out. Give $10,000 this week away. Then the next week you get a call the next week, 'Man, somebody's gonna repo my house. I'm fitting to get evicted.' Another $10,000 go out. It's stuff like that that adds up."

When he got traded to the Indianapolis Colts, he bought another million-dollar mansion and paid movers to bring his stuff and his family down from Cleveland, even though he says he asked his family why they couldn't do the moving for him.

According to Richardson's brother Terrell, the following people were living with Richardson: "Me, my brother, my older brother visited frequently, Trent's kids, Trent's girlfriend, my uncle, my Aunt Vera, my cousin Julius, my cousin Devin, a friend of our family's Marlon."

After washing out of Oakland last offseason and reviewing his finances, Richardson got rid of everybody, including his brother, who he was paying roughly $100,000 to be a personal assistant. He plans to live with his grandmother in Pensacola and continue his rehab, and now has enough money left to support himself and his immediately family.
 
Mom might not be pulling her weight...sometime she gotta go!!!

Really mom? $700 for a mortgage? And you can't pay that? :smh:

This wouldnt be an issue for him if he didnt have so many kids. He's acting like he needed those 20 kids to pick cotton and maintain the harvest. No one need all those kids ,these days, especially if you can't be there physically, emotionally, and financial. He's a sick person.

He should've bought his mom the house out right. Hell, you never know when you might have to move home.

Beyond the kids, why is anyone buying their mother a house that damn expensive? Maybe if he's a mega-star like Lebron .... but, she don't need that anymore than he needed that basketball team he produced with them women.

Make Mother's Day, Christmas, and Birthday's special, but fuck committing to supporting a lifestyle well beyond their means just because you're rich. That's your wealth. They didn't see fit to bring you into the world into that lifestyle, so why are you obligated to provide a lifestyle that didn't provide themselves OR you.

None of the siblings wanted to take the Motjer in either so I doubt it's just an issue of him not being able to afford it
 
My mom and I aren't close. When my sister was coming over my house to watch the Cavs game 7 my mother called me asking to come. I almost told her no. But I knew that had I told her know that my sister probably wouldn't come, so I relented.

I am THIS close to telling her, "Fuck off. I don't ever want to have shit to do with you. I might get over it I might not but until then don't call me... And if you tell my sister and my brother about this conversation you are truly the most evil bitch that ever lived trying to ruin the relationship between me and my brother and sister because I don't like you. "

This close

So I can understand where the fuck he's coming from
 
He has mental issues. Any man who has 12 kids has some serious issues. He must have been molested or beat as a kid.

I have 3 kids and I'm thinking about hanging myself.
 
So she decides to stop paying when her son currently has no job (not to mention 800 kids). How did she think this would work out?

Fuck outta here if not for child support and if we really had a family unit most men would have babies all over the place keep it 100
 
Um how about you buy the house so your moms doesnt have to pay anything. Im pretty sure moms sacrificed to get him there....

But what do I know? If I had the dough moms would get house, car, and allowance.

Sad story right there ...you have to cut off dead weight fa!it sometimes..motherfuckas are like a virus.
 
Um how about you buy the house so your moms doesnt have to pay anything. Im pretty sure moms sacrificed to get him there....

But what do I know? If I had the dough moms would get house, car, and allowance.

I understand but I don't understand.
Personally I'd do all of that for my mother.
But my mother would not call what she did for me a sacrifice.
She would say I had a kid so I needed to take care of my kid. Not a sacrifice. No repayment for all I've done. Cause she wouldn't feel she did anything she wasn't supposed to do, when you have a child.
 
Seems like a fucked up 'gift,' but who knows. Maybe he had a price limit set on what he would spend, but she wanted more(that's been known to happen). So maybe he gave her like $150 0r $200 thousand and she bought a house worth $300,000. That would explain still having a mortgage.

I could see leaving her to pay the property taxes and upkeep, but the fucking mortgage as a gift needs some fucking explaining.

You can't have kids my G. Not of age where you have practoce, games etc.

Parents of professional athletes most of the time have to sacrifice more, it goes way beyond 'what a parent is suppose to do'...
