Todays African American Cultural Lesson

"You need Jesus" is a saying in the African American community. Its like saying "You ain't right, meaning you are going down the right path and need to get back on the right path. Of course, it can be taken literally, but in this context I meant it in the former sense.

This concludes the African American Cultural Lesson!

Yes, he is most definitely a thief. He promised to repay. He even swore on his mother's, son's, and anyone else's grave that might get his point across. When the money dried up, so did the relationship. And that is what I have to live with (along with the bills). I have documentation of it in case I ever think it wasn't as bad as I remember.

If I were Bronson, I would make sure it was hard to find me too. Why deal with the hassle? I would go by a different name too. This one is tarnished as soon as it is entered into Google.

I wish nothing but riches for the guy. Oh, and maybe a conscience so I get my money back.

Oh yeah he would swear on his son and his Grandmother he would pay you back. I mean how much lower can one person go? It is amazing and this is what (some of) his family members are proud of. What lowlifes.

He is not hiding that much though, he is quoted in articles about his son and his son mentioned that he now lives in Chicago in one of his posts. If you know his kids name, you and google it. If you don't send me a message.

I am sure he is licking his chops at the possibility of jumping on the gravy train if his son gets to the pro's and I do suspect that if we want to find him, all we have to do is follow his sons trail. He went to all of his campus visits. He cant resist that money or the chance to bask in the sons limelight. U of Michigan is also in the Big 10. You think he can resist watching his son play MN for the little brown jug?

Good to hear you don't take Jesus literally.

I admire your restraint. If it was me, I'd probably be sticking voodoo pins in a little Mcneal doll and putting the video on youtube.

You ever considered writing up the story and submitting it to chick magazines? You could rename you and the thief and just tell the story.

I don't recall asking you what I do and dont take seriously and fail to understand why you would think I would care about the opinion of a perfect stranger. I was simply explaining what I mean by the statement "you need Jesus."

Why are we even discussing this. This forum is about Bronson.

Apparently the University of Michigan is heavily recruiting Bronson Mcneal's son as a wide receiver. Bronson even went to Ann Arbor with him for a campus visit to the football player factory.

Wonder if Bronson plans to include all the hundreds of thousands of dollars he stole as income on the FAFSA form for scholarship eligibility? Do you suppose U of M realizes that their prize recruit's dad is a professional con man?

I don't think the recruiters would even care. Personal morality is not a high priority in the world of college and professional athletics.

I'd generally agree, Hazel. But if you're familiar with the case of basketball whiz OJ Mayo of USC (recently a Top 10 pick in the NBA draft), it can be trouble for a major university if unsavory folks start hanging around your star athletes. Some guy affiliated with a sports agent started hanging around Mayo when he was in high school, funneled him gifts and freebies for years, and now maybe the NCAA will whack USC for the violations of amateur athletics rules. I know ethically they probably don't care, but the penalties in terms of taking away scholarships and bowl eligibility hits college sports programs hard where they live- the ability to recruit future stars and attract attention on television.

This guy described in the thread here wouldn't hesitate a second to latch onto a star athlete or hustle people affiliated with a big time football program, IMHO. Hyenas always follow the lion for the big meal.

His son accepted a scholarship too the University of Michigan. Yes Dad did go along for his campus visit. I dont think that the sins of the father should be visited upon the son, but at I do wonder how the program would look upon the influence of a known con artist?

I hope the kid is as religious or whatever as he says he is in articles, because he is going to need the strength if he is going to be able to resist the influence of his father. I saw his son recently, good looking kid, but I just felt sorry for him having he parents he does. Well his father at least.

Check out the 9/9 Star Trib sports page. It's like Bronson doesn't even exist. There should have been a thank you to the ladies on this page for paying that private school tab.

Check this article and picture out. Bronson says he doesn't like to be quoted because it might take away from his son's spotlight. Or maybe it is because hundreds of women want their money back from the loser.

Bronson's quotes are worth repeating, considering what phony BS they are coming from him:

"Bronson McNeal, typically does not like to be quoted in articles because he wants the focus to be on his son and his accomplishments, but tonight, he was overcome with joy, “It feels real good, you know you did your job, teaching these kids values and how to be respectful, it’s not only about sports, it applies to life, if you do good things, good things come back to you."

Some values that professional scam artist Bronson must have taught his kids. From afar, of course, since he walked out on them.

Incidentally, his son says he's considering the U of Minnesota for a football career. The Star Tribune's Sid Hartman has mentioned this several times. Hartman's been made aware of Bronson's history, but chooses not to mention it.

I laughed out loud when I read that statement...he wants the focus to be on his son. Yeah father of the year he is!! He has a daughter that he has nothing to do with because her "mother" wouldn't act right!!! (I guess that means using her money to take care of her child not him.)

He likes his son as a person...that is high praise from a confirmed con artist!! Can his son even recall his father having a job? What must it be like to grow up with a man who lives his life that way? Sorry if that kid is as great as they say he is (not just clever image making) it is not because of his parents, there is clearly some divine intervention there. No his son's mom is not responsible for her baby daddies actions, but who lets their kid around such a person?

Thanks for my laugh of the day gals!!!

I know these 2 types right off the top.
It's always the black guy doing the fat white chic.
It found members of the family.
Sure enough, she lost everything.
The Car, and all house hold.
Why is it you all suck up to total looser talk.
Just can't get enough attention, so you fall hook line and sinker for crap you want to hear
that was never more than BS to begin with.

I see you all on the freeway everyday sitting in the passenger side.
Then you wonder why AIDS is everywhere, because of you.
They got my fat sister too, and she even brags about it.
Why don't you all just stick to cats, and bunny rabbits, and stop the spread of disease.

Huh??

You need not worry about falling victim to Bronson's game. Being the effective con artist he is, he would know to skip over an illiterate.

To the rest of the ladies on this board, do you have any idea what this person said?

what PhilCat is trying to say. I was going to reply but how to reply to such incoherent thinking.

I understand it pretty well. It's anger. I speak it every now and again.

The top high school football senior in Minnesota, Breck wide receiver McNeal, announced his decision to play for Clemson next season during the fourth quarter of Saturday's U.S. Army All-American Bowl in San Antonio.

McNeal, a four-star recruit, picked the Tigers over Minnesota, Oregon and Colorado.


Bronson McNeal's son committed to Clemson University. He had previously agreed to attend the University of Michigan, but reneged on that commitment.

That sure sounds familiar! Hopefully he'll take his Daddy and his own string of broken promises along and keep him out of Minnesota for a while...
