The article is too long to post in the thread, but it's well worth the read.
 
Bravo to Tyron Smith for saying enough is enough after being more than willing to give his family a good life that they never deserved just because they "raised" him. 
 
Imagine yourself as a professional athlete. How do you handle the family and money situation?
 
As for me, I would give to those who never asked out of greed. If someone in my family approached me about a dire situation that they didn't foresee, that's another story.
 
What a bunch of twisted individuals Smith has or a biological family. I hope they all live in poverty for the rest of their lives.

Well yeah, but the fact that his family feels entitled to gratuitous amounts of his money is absurd.

Would you be OK with their expectations?
