OT: BB robs the cradle!

[TheRainMaker]

I’m surprised nobody else has noticed how off character both Tom and Bill have been recently. The Tom Brady roast was ****ing weird and you have a half naked Bill leaving a 24 year old woman’s house during his last season in the NFL.

This woman clearly has some physiological issues to date a 70 year old plus man. Flipping it around, there’s no ****ing way a 24 year man is going to be in a relationship with a 70+ year old woman. Men are not wired that way and are attracted to how a woman looks - and an old woman ain’t it.

The real question is, how are so many women are not grossed out being with a much older man?

It definitely happens the other day around too. Rare but I’m sure it happens.

I agree that it happens, but it’s extremely rare. Men or women that want to date significantly older need to seek advice from Michael.

I understand the human brain development argument, but i never bought into it entirely after a certain point. The brain doesn't develop in a completely linear way. The more it develops the more it slows down developing in general. A much simpler way to put it is the gap between a 3 year old and 7 year old is much larger than the gape between a 7 year old and 11 year old just as that gap is much larger than that between an 11 year olds and 15 year old (and so on). By the time someone is in their late teens the brain development has slowed down greatly We are not talking huge differences the way we were earlier.

It slows even more once a person is in their 20s. The difference between 22, 23 24 and 25 is practically negligible from a brain development standpoint. At that point the growth of a person has much more to do with experiences than any development of the brain. Technically it exist but not in a way that can really be termed meaningful. So i really don't like it being used as an argument. Cause it stats a fact with incomplete information and frames it to be mean something it shouldn't.

Not to mention I don't find the fully developed brain argument to be a good one. One doesn't need a fully developed brain to be responsible for their choices. They need a developed enough brain. A mind that has passed a certain threshold where it is reasonable to attach responsibility to said person. At 24 she has clearly passed that threshold and if she does not realize she is making a mistake she should have to deal with learning from it.

As for how she benefits financially, I'm sure it will benefit her more than if she dated a guy her own age who was an unknown, I'll leave it at that. I believe she knows exactly what she is doing from that perspective. Besides the gifts I'm sure she'll get (not to call her a gold digger) her social media influence has massively grown already which can be leveraged for modeling gigs, simps and upper her profile so she may be able to land a better longer term man than she could have before.

And I would be shocked if anyone thinks this is true love, particularly those in this relationship. Doesn't mean they can't enjoy it knowing what it is.

I go to a website of girls that age is of no consequences (other countries). After a while, you need to talk about relevant matters. Thus, age is relevant.

What better way to pass it than indulge in drama like this?

I’m happy for Bill. Greatest coach ever, now showing he’s got way more game than 90% of this board. Would I be upset if it were my daughter ? Yup…it ain’t .. so I don’t care. Honestly way more worried about Mayo sucking as a coach vs what Bills girl is sucking on

 

[vicspats]

Uhhhh.

I can't wait until some reporter asks him about it. The glare will be a fabulous thing to see.

I will hope the question will be something like, "So, uh, Bill, are you two going steady now."

Any chance we see a big fat Super Bowl ring hanging from a girlish chain around her neck?

That would be funny…

Long past living with my parents or asking their approval. They’ve been dead for decades. Been out in the world a long time. Last week I attended my 55th high school reunion. Do the math. So what?

How about you? How old are you?

Middle aged. Just wondering what perspective you were coming from. I can see younger people saying who cares his or her choice, but you know where I stand as far as how the older generation should behave.

We just have a different worldview on this.

 

[n1997y]

I am 51. My 24 year old daughter recently told me I am not allowed to date anyone in their 30s (or younger). So that kinda stinks, but the rules are the rules.

Yeah, my daughter told me I’m not allowed to date anyone her age or younger. I figure it’s like Pirates of the Caribbean said, “more what you'd call "guidelines" than actual rules.” Still hoping I’ll get the chance to break those rules again someday.

This speaks to BB just not giving a crap what anyone else thinks.
This is who he is.
He does what he wants to and couldn’t care less how others view what he does.

This is how he has operated
As gm
In draft
With trades
With cuts
With the press
With his players
With Kraft
At NFL owners meeting
Resigning as jets coach on a napkin
Cutting Bernie Kosar
Letting TB12 walk in free agency

Usually I admired it. This time its cringe worthy

It’s been pretty clear all along that BB is neurodivergent. Extremely high functioning, but still neurodivergent. This is just part of that package.

I find it odd that a decent number of people seem to think this is a “score” for Bill. We all know there are plenty of young and attractive women out there that target rich and successful older men ("sugar daddies") to get a taste of that kind of life. There are multiple successful matchmaking apps that specialize in this kind of arrangement.

If this was some under the radar fling, I wouldn’t think too much of it other than be a little revolted. Thats how the vast majority of these kinds of arrangements are handled. But given that they are out in public together, this is obviously a full blown relationship at this point, and that makes me a little sad. He seems completely out of touch with reality. There’s no way he comes out of this not looking pathetic.

He is one of the only celebrities i can think of that has let it get this far. Hugh Hefner (who made it part of his persona) and the oil tycoon who married Anna Nicole Smith are the only ones that come to mind that are comparable (60+ year old with a 20 something).

Elephant man would “have game” if he had tens of millions of dollars.

We need to go further psychologically. Most men would not want to be held hostage by a way older women for money and have to fool around with them. Men are visual creatures and would get grossed out by a wrinkly old out of shape woman. There's a reason you don't see men with much older women. Women seem to be desensitized by men. They are willing to do some pretty gross **** for money.

Men are from Mars, women are from Venus. For most species males are wired to procreate with as many females as possible and females are wired to choose the best possible specimen to produce the best offspring. Humans have evolved to the point where we have our own rules, including valuing security and wealth in the equation.

As you suggest, there are other psychological and physiological reasons for why there are more old men/young women than old women/ young men. Older women are not interested in sex after menopause, men have the desire throughout their life and consider sex as part of their identity. From the practical standpoint young women's equipment is easier to operate, they don't need to aroused to participate. For guys there is no faking it.

Of course you don’t. You “don’t judge” creepy-ass behavior.

I never said that. I do judge "creepy-ass behavior" when I see it, but I just don't see anything creepy about 2 people enjoying each others' company. It might not exactly be something I would ever do but to each their own.

Wax sanctimonious about being “judgmental” all you want. If people aren’t judgmental ever (which we are, every one of us) then they never learn good judgment. Something which BB has clearly lost the plot on. I wonder if he’d be carrying on like this if his mom and dad were alive? My guess is no.

BB is no better than someone like Jerry Jones. Just a skeevy creep.

I never followed it terribly closely, but Bill Belichick has indeed done some (to use your vernacular) "skeevy" things in the past. As has Jerry Jones, for that matter. I just don't see that here.

Vicspats said it perfectly in his post: Would I be upset if it were my daughter ? Yup. But it ain’t so I don’t care.

EXACTLY. He is rich and famous. No "game" required. Also he has the personality of a moldy cardboard box.
This 24 yo women could take her pick of younger fitter more normal man close to her age.

 

[Wozzy]

Don’t put words in my mouth. When Cher or Madonna does it it’s just as embarrassing and cringeworthy as this is.

Opinions are like...

 

[TheRainMaker]

I bet Linda Holiday is pissed! Women love saying you can't do better than them and dating a younger better looking women is the best revenge.

I seriously doubt this woman has any intention of getting serious with Bill, I seriously doubt he assumes it will get serious. She is enjoying his wealth, celebrity and perhaps his dry sense of humor and intelligence. He is enjoying... well, a 24 year old who can do somersaults and splits.

Why does this bother so many people... oh yeah, jealously and envy. He's got money, she's young and hot... too bad.

 

[BHPatriot]

I bet she is getting a massive monthly paycheck for this arrangement. It's nothing more, nothing less.
