Is anyone surprised they turned out to be grifters. Stands to reason they are tight with Freeze.

I'm a little surprised. I don't see how you could do this to someone you supposedly cared about. I'm sure there are two sides, but this seems pretty suspect.

Do you think your opinion on the matter is too good for the other thread?

Riveting. Will save to read again.

Based on the Touhy response, and just what a lawyer friend said, I kind of think the truth is somwhere in the middle of this thing.
He's worth several hundred million. Doesn't make a whole lot of sense to try to make a few hundred thousand off of Oher. Sean says they couldn't adopt him because he was 18 and since he was an Ole Miss booster, Michael couldn't go to Ole Miss and live with them without the conservatorship. This rift between them all seems to have started with how he was portrayed in the movie and has gotten worse over the last three years.

They were rich before they rescued Orr. Remember they owned all the Taco Bell’s in Memphis.

That poor victim of evil ol' Whitey.
Michael Oher was a grown arse man playing io the NFL when that movie was made. He had to sign on the dotted line at least 100 times.
He had PLENTY OF MONEY to hire competent legal counsel. Don't hate on the Touhy family because he was too lazy, stupid, or tight-fisted to hire counsel.

Why is this all being brought up like 14 years after the movie came out? I mean its not like the movie came out yesterday.
Did Michael burn through all his NFL money or something?

Oher should just make his own movie.
If the scummy details are even close to what we are all picturing, it should be a blockbuster.

Interesting questions that need answering:
1. Did the Thouys still have a conservatorship on Oher when the book came out? What was Oher paid out of that?
2. Did the Touhys still have a converatorship on Oher when the movie came out? What was Oher paid out of that?
3.Did the Touhys still have a conservatorship on Oher when he signed to play professional football? What percentage, if any, of his professional football salary did the Thouys collect for the conservatorship?
4. Why is (was?) such a conservatorship still in effect?
Why to questions 1,2 & 3?
What percentage of the earnings, if anything, was Oher ever paid by the Touhys?

Michael Oher accused of $15M Shakedown
quote:
Michael Oher, the ex-NFL star whose story inspired the Oscar-winning film “The Blind Side,” allegedly asked his adoptive family for $15 million not to go public with claims they swindled him, according to the family’s attorney.
quote:
“Over the years, the Tuohys have given Mr. Oher an equal cut of every penny received from ‘The Blind Side,’” attorney Marty Singer said.
“Even recently, when Mr. Oher started to threaten them about what he would do unless they paid him an eight-figure windfall, and, as part of that shakedown effort refused to cash the small profit checks from the Tuohys, they still deposited Mr. Oher’s equal share into a trust account they set up for his son.”
quote:
Singer alleged Oher had been dropped as a client by other lawyers, but “has finally found a willing enabler and filed this ludicrous lawsuit as a cynical attempt to drum up attention in the middle of his latest book tour.”

Seems a bad take given the circumstances.
The trial will reveal it, unless they settle.
Honestly, it seems like sour grapes and desperation. I find it hard to believe he did not know about his adoption status until this year.
Genuinely, it seems sad all around. But, if anything, it just proves they're really family afterall. Money matters can bring out the petty in every family group.
If Bullock gives up her Oscar, she's dead to me (as if she cares). But, it's too bad because her, Alyssa Milano, Kate Beckinsale, and Marisa Tomei have always been my starlet love interests since childhood/youth.
P.S.: I may have a girl next door brunette type

He said, they said at this point. This is the kind of case where it will all come to light in the end so I'll reserve judgment until then.

They cut their biological kids into the royalties, and didnt give Oher anything.
That's pretty much all you need to know about these people and their "adoption" of Michael Oher. It was a calculated business move from the very start.
frick these fake-arse clowns.

This kid is a Liar
They have a Trust set up for him
Why would someone with 200Million, deprive him of $14,000
Posted on 8/15/23 at 11:21 pm to CID 310
Yellow could not tell about this family from the movie? They made it where the kid could not read and then some white woman taught him football. That was not suspect to yall?

They don’t look great here, but neither does Oher. I think the lesson here is to avoid ole miss at all costs until you run out of options.
