Julius Peppers Pops Champagne As Thanks To Chicago

As a solid entrance to his new home in the windy city, former Panthers defensive end Julius Peppers took it to the concrete Saturday night, getting his grub on with Lovie Smith and former Viking Chester Taylor and buying 25 bottles of Perrier Jouet Fleur at more $350 a pop at Crescendo, a Chicago hotspot no doubt filled with every level of beezy. Needless to say Peppers feels on top of the world after signing one of the richest contracts in NFL history, and shaking the spot in Carolina, where he was hit with the franchise tag, known for making many aging football stars salty like some pickle juice.
Peppers contract is pretty fire and desire, 6 years for damn near $92 million, of which he will at least see a solid 40-piece, that can buy all the biscuits a man could ever want. With an on paper net worth close to 9 figures, Peppers is now legendary but must be careful because he is now on the radar of your upper-echelon dime, side boo or late night, operating in the same hemisphere as Tiger (the average square will never understand). While this does come with great benefits, it also comes with great risks, most importantly being dimed out aka snitched on for actions that some would frown upon.
Peppers basically dimed himself out with his decision to pop champagne like he won the championship game, as each bottle could have posed the potential for some negative press, which would have made a kind gesture look like a very questionable decision. What would have happened if someone decided to spray one of the bottles all over the crowd to fuel a scuffle? or broke it over someone else’s head during a customary “damn homie, did you just step on my gators,” type of dispute? Not too far-fetched. Via Chicago Tribune
