GDC 2018

UBM/GDC

Happening every March during the final week of the month, thousands of gaming fans, publishers, and most importantly game developers converge on the city of San Francisco for a celebration/conference known as the Game Developers Conference. Set to begin on March 19th, the Game Developers Conference (GDC) serves as a place where fans and makers of games can gather to explore new ideas, attend conferences around every facet of the industry, and of course to debut new games for the first time.

With announcements last year like a wireless Wi-Fi enabled VR headset from Qualcomm, the first price cut for the insanely popular Oculus Rift and most importantly the reveal of NVIDIA’s 1080Ti graphics card. This year we’re not entirely sure what will be going down during GDC, but since Virtual Reality is having less and less of a push we can expect to see less of that and more of the popular Augmented Reality which has been used in games like Pokemon Go.

This year’s conference which is taking place at the Moscone Center in San Francisco will be seeing major developers joining the lineup to host talks or announce new products to the masses. Companies like Microsoft, Epic Games, Sony, and Ubisoft will all be in attendance and be hosting their own talks surrounding their upcoming products.

Police Confirm Northwestern University Active Shooter Reports Were Hoax

On the same day that walkouts have come out throughout the country demanding stricter gun laws and promoting school safety a month after the Parkside shooting, reports came out of an active shooter at Northwestern University, as announced on the school’s social media account. Students were told to stay in place by police while the school, and at least one other local high school, was placed on lockdown. Police later explained that they had been alerted to the school after an unidentified student claimed to have shot his girlfriend during a phone call.

What happened?

The school issued the following statement on its Twitter account:

“There is a report of a person with a gun in Engelhart Hall at the corner of Emerson Street and Maple Avenue. Evanston and Northwestern University police are on the scene. Seek shelter if in the area.”

“Police continue to investigate a reported incident at Engelhart Hall. Remain sheltered or avoid the area.”

“NUPD responding to Evanston campus emergency. Remain in safe place. If not on campus, stay away. More info will be provided when available.”

Evanston police also issued the following statement on Twitter:

“Evanston and NUPD in the area of Emerson and Maple. Report of gunman and shots fired in a residential building. Area checked no evidence of a victim, scene, or gunman found.”


Due to a lack of evidence, police now believe the incident was a ‘hoax’

According to The Chicago Tribune, police responded to reports of shots fired, only to find no evidence of a “victim, scene or gunman” during their initial investigation; the lack of evidence caused initial speculation that the incident was a hoax.

Evanston police Cmdr. Ryan Glew later revealed that police were alerted to the school after an unidentified person claimed to have shot his girlfriend; after struggling to find evidence, Glew suggested that the whole incident could have been a hoax. According to Chicago Tribune, he issued the following statement:

“That could be a possibility that we are also investigating…We’re still treating this as an active investigation.”

According to Chicago Sun News, police have officially called the incident a “hoax.” According to ABC News, the incident was directly dubbed a “swatting incident,” suggesting that it was a prank call directed towards the school.

On Twitter, Evanston police officially classified the incident as a “swatting incident,” adding that there were no people hurt or that people at the school were in any danger:

“The incident at Emerson and Maple was swatting incident. No victims or danger to the public. Area is secure. Police and Fire are clearing the area.”

WATCH: Lil Dicky –“Freaky Friday feat. Chris Brown” (Official Music Video)

0

YouTube

At 8 a.m. EST, Lil Dicky, aka Firm Handshake, released his new single in almost three years with the release of “Freaky Friday”.

“Freaky Friday” is the first single of Lil Dicky’s new album, his first new studio album since his 2015 debut Professional Rapper.

The song and video is a play on the classic movie Freaky Friday, however, instead of Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan, it’s LD & Chris Brown switching bodies and lives to hilarious effect.

Seriously, is there another rapper out there that could get away with the line “Ima blood but I can finally wear blue — why’s his Momma callin’ all the time? Leave me the f*ck alone, bitch!” and then get Ed Sheeran, DJ Khaled, and Kendall Jenner to appear in the video? Truthfully, I don’t think so.

As always, Dicky delivered the goods with this killer combination of catchy music and entertaining videos.

Needless to say, we Mr. Leftward Sloping Penis’ next album can’t drop soon enough.

Things That Didn’t Need To Be Turned Green for St. Patrick’s Day

There’s not a great deal of tradition that goes into St. Patrick’s Day. It’s not even really a day dedicated to Irish culture at all, not that any of us could name a single Irish tradition outside of drinking anyway. So what do we do for St. Patty’s day? Well, we drink. And then we drink some more. And then maybe we eat some nachos. And then, inevitably, we color everything around us green. Everything. Nothing is safe from the permanent staining that comes from honoring the Emerald Isle. Not our beers, not our milkshakes, and not our clothes. This is a day when you’re pinched — physically assaulted if you want to get technical — for not wearing the color green. And yeah, some of that stuff is fine if it’s green. Milkshakes, beers, socks, ties — turn it green. That’s fine. You know what we could probably do without turning green? Pretty much everything else.


Your dog

Do you think this dog wants to be green? Even if he does pull off the whole Incredible Hulk look well, do you think this good boy will enjoy the highly necessary bath that comes after this? Do you think this good boy got to get drunk at all during this degrading day? Factor in those jean shorts he’s wearing, and this whole picture becomes borderline abusive.


Your child…and your beard?

This one’s kind of a double whammy, because as frowned-upon as it is (or should be) to turn your hipster hair and somehow even hipper beard into vomit-colored cotton candy. It should be even more frowned-upon to let your kid take a picture of a guy who looks like if Dr. Seuss wrote the Magic Mike movies. You just know this guy gets dressed up as an Irish Chippendales dancer at the same time every year, with a mission to inspire children across the globe to follow their dreams and make a lousy holiday even worse.


Your Water

Image via Wikimedia Commons

Ah yes, who doesn’t love the great St. Patty’s Day tradition of turning rivers and fountains green.  They’re not just green, by the way. They’re the ugliest color green imaginable. I didn’t even know which color green was the ugliest color green until I looked at pictures of Chicago in mid-March, but pretty much any photo of this dyed-green water confirms it. At least we get to send an awesome message to the rest of the world: this is how little water means to us. We’ll pour pretty much anything in it, so long as we don’t miss the all-day parade full of screaming, 5’10 leprechauns. Also, are leprechauns racist? There’s just too much to unpack here.


Your American-flag themed Autism awareness t-shirt

Image via Autism Awareness America

Look, I’m all for people being aware of things. Autism awareness is undoubtedly important and the organizations that seek to make the world a better place for Autistic individuals deserve a great deal of credit for their efforts.

That being said, did this t-shirt need to be made? Is this shirt really going to push the needle forward regarding Autism awareness? It’s just confusing. It confuses me. It is sincerely designed for St. Patrick’s Day, so at least we know their intentions there, but why an American flag? And why have only the word ‘AUTISM’ on it? To make it more concise and stylish? This isn’t Supreme or Guess Jeans we’re talking about here. It’s an Autism awareness t-shirt. This shirt is more likely to confuse me than to make me aware of anything — I actually feel less aware of autism than I did before seeing this shirt because now I’m really unsure of how or why it relates to an Irish-themed American flag. I am, however, extremely aware that green is now my least favorite color. And I will not be buying this shirt.


Your…Everything

Image via Adam Pieniazeck/Flickr

This photo more or less sums up everything worth loving and hating about St. Patrick’s Day: a huge, shirtless, completely green man surrounded on all sides by a drunk, makeshift parade. What I love most about this photo isn’t that they’re clearly just walking through a neighborhood, but that nobody in this picture is even close to being as undressed as The Incredible Bulk is. There’s a guy in shorts, sure, but even that guy’s wearing a sweatshirt. It’s all about equilibrium, baby! Pretty much everyone else in this photo is wearing at least a shirt, if not a sweatshirt or a jacket. This is clearly not a great day to walk through the streets shirtless, but do you think that’s after stopped this guy before? Nothing, and I mean nothing, is gonna stop this festive fellow from learning to embrace his naked body in public. And that, my friends, is what St. Patrick’s Day is all about.

Lehigh University Sorority Banned Due To Pledge Scavenger Hunt

Alpha Chi Omega at Lehigh University has been kicked off of the school’s campus due to what school officials called a “reprehensible scavenger hunt”. According to reports, the scavenger hunt involved drugs, alcohol and sexual activity.

In addition to being removed from the school’s campus, the chapter lost its recognition by Lehigh University for two years and will be banned from campus until May 2020.

According to reports, the sorority hosted a savenger hunt in December which participants were given a list of tasks that involved “the use of drugs and alcohol, sexual activity and other activities” that violate the Bethlehem school’s policy.

via CBS:

The sorority was suspended pending an investigation by a disciplinary committee that called the activity “reprehensible.”

“Lehigh University expects all students to uphold community standards and act in a manner that reflects the university’s Code of Conduct. Violations of these expectations, which are in place to foster a safe, respectful environment for all members of the Lehigh community, will result in consequences,” the university said in a statement.

Alpha Chi Omega’s statement reads in part, “The actions of our members in this incident were disturbing and led our leadership to undertake an extensive internal investigation. Following our initial review, we immediately rescinded the membership of nearly one-third of the members of the chapter those women who were most directly involved with this incident.”

The Alpha Chi Omega national organization conducted an investigation resulting in probation and individual punishments. The chapter can appeal the suspension if they wish to do so.

In response to incidents like these, fraternities such Phi Kappa Psi have made numerous changes to their code of conduct in an effort to address the issues that have arisen. In addition, schools such as Texas State have introduced new Greek Life rules to try and prevent these problems.

These reports come amidst similar allegations that have been made against fraternities nationwide, including Sigma Alpha Epsilon at East Carolina University, who were shut down for hazing and the Lamda Chi Alpha chapter at the University of Arkansas which has been accused of taking sexually explicit photographs of women without their permission.

In response to incidents like these, fraternities such Phi Kappa Psi have made numerous changes to their code of conduct in an effort to address the issues that have arisen. In addition, schools such as Texas State have introduced new Greek Life rules to try and prevent these problems.

The 5 Players To Watch During This Year’s NCAA Tournament

0
0

The NCAA Men’s basketball tournament exists somewhat uniquely in terms of the weight it carries for individual players. It isn’t the college baseball world series, nor is it the college football playoff. It is, in one word, a gauntlet. When it comes to drafting players into the pros, however, that gauntlet can mean everything and nothing. Did Steph Curry need to lead Davidson to an improbable Elite 8 run in 2008 to become a top 10 pick in the draft a year later? Maybe. It’s not like Curry didn’t ball out in college, but that ’08 run sure helped. And what about Ben Simmons? LSU could have lost every game in 2015-2016, and Simmons still would have been a lock as a lottery pick. The tournament then seems most important for the guys who float in-between. They’re the older players, the borderline lottery players, and the players looking to build a legacy with one great tournament run. These are the players to watch during March Madness 2018:

Grayson Allen

Instagram Photo

The senior guard out of Duke, and the consensus ‘most hated player in college basketball’ may, in fact, have a lot to prove in this year’s tournament. As the team’s most seasoned player, emotional leader, and second-best scoring option, a deep run for Duke in this year’s tournament could mean a lot for the draft stock of a controversial but no-doubt effective player like Allen. Is he a dirty player? Maybe. His history of tripping, flopping, mocking, and instigating hasn’t endeared him to too many in the sports media, and many wonder how similar antics would play out on an NBA court full of players looking to take Coach K’s former bad boy down a few pegs. Here’s what we do know about Allen: he’s a competitor, and a personality, and a pretty damn good player. While he may be approaching the ceiling of his potential, the experience he brings and fire he plays with may be enough to land Allen somewhere at the end of the first round.

 

Mohamed Bamba

Instagram Photo

Bamba is expected to be a lottery pick, and may very well be the first overall pick in the draft. While his offensive skill set remains a bit raw in comparison to Duke big man Marvin Bagley III and Arizona center DeAndre Ayton, Bamba likely already has the length, athleticism, and defensive acumen to make an impact at the NBA level. Just a freshman, the 6-11 center still has time go grow even taller and fill out beyond the 225 pounds he currently sits at. With his Texas Longhorns seeded 10th in the South region, Bamba will need to put in work if he wants to A) make a meaningful tournament run, and B) make a meaningful push for the first spot in the draft. Something tells me he’s gonna rack up a few blocks, either way.


Mikal Bridges

Instagram Photo

Villanova’s recent success (they’re a one-seed in the tournament this year) should reflect well on Bridges, a 6-6 junior whose reputation as a floor-spacer and keen defender has helped propel him to a first-round lock in the upcoming draft. Having already won it all in the Big Dance in 2016, Bridges is likely focused on cementing himself as a Villanova legend with his final tournament run as a Wildcat. Following a breakout sophomore season in which he unexpectedly started every game, Bridges was lauded as a high-school scorer turned five-tool player, the sort of intangible praise that’s likely to land the 21-year-old somewhere in the late lottery.


Keita Bates-Diop

Instagram Photo

Bates-Diop may be the prototypical wing in the modern NBA, a role he’ll no doubt be drafted to fulfill on a team with immediate needs. The question then becomes how quickly he’ll be chosen to fill that role. At 22, he has the body and experience to dominate younger, smaller forwards at the college level, but it’ll take a serious run against the best in the country to propel Bates-Diop into the same draft conversation as a low-ceiling, high-floor plug-in player like Grayson Allen. He might just be ready to make that jump.


Michael Porter Jr.

Instagram Photo

Coming out of high school, Missouri forward Michael Porter Jr. was expected to spend one college season flat-out dominating before heading to the NBA as a potential first-overall pick. Things haven’t gone exactly as planned though, following a back injury in Missouri’s first game that caused the star forward to miss the entirety of the regular season. He’s returned at just the right time, though, and with many draft projections still treating him as a sure-fire lottery pick. So what does Porter Jr. have to lose? Well, at this point, just draft stock. While nobody really knows how deep in the tournament this already-good Missouri squad could go with the addition of Porter Jr.’s elite offensive skill set, it will mean a lot to NBA front-offices to see him play the way he’s supposed to against the best competition in the country.

What happened?

According to Chron, Texas athletics director Chris Del Conte issued the following statement:

“He was a once-in-a-lifetime personality whose impact on Texas athletics, collegiate baseball and the student-athletes he coached extended far beyond the playing field. If you were fortunate enough to have spent time with Augie, or if you followed him in any way, he had a great effect on you with his brilliant combination of wisdom, wit and charm. He was just an incredible coach, molder of men and a great person.”

“He will be missed, but the memories of him and his awesome accomplishments will carry on forever. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his wife, Jeannie, and his family.”

According to the Associated Press, who is believed to be one of the first publications that announced Garrido’s passing, it was announced that it was confirmed that the University of Texas first announced the news of his passing and that he suffered a stroke.

In this viral video, a Chinese policeman identified as Abdusalam Abulati, caught a woman plunging off a window with his bare hands. According to the footage, the woman was sitting on a window ledge nearly 10 feet high before falling off the building.

What happened?

It is believed that Abulati and his colleagues were patrolling near a foot massage parlor near 4 A.M. when the incident took place. The woman was said to have argued with her husband before she fell off the building.

At this time, the exact reason why the woman fell was not immediately clear. In their coverage of the story, Daily Mail claimed that the woman was believed to be “suicidal” but that her fall from the building had been accidental.

March Madness 2018: How Will The NBA’s Top Draft Prospects Fare?

Brackets are done, hot takes have been served, the athletes still aren’t paid. Let the madness begin. The NCAA Tournament tips off on March 15th, and while it’ll boil down to a championship game on April 2nd, a handful of players will already have their sights set on June 21st. The 2018 NBA Draft, to be held as usual at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center, will induct some of the nation’s most revered amateur athletes to one of the most elite sports leagues on the planet. Here are five potential lottery picks to study this March.

Trae Young, PG, Oklahoma

Oklahoma and Rhode Island are set to open the tournament, and it’ll be the most difficult test yet for Oklahoma’s sweetheart Trae Young. Young, who’s led the nation in both scoring and assists this season, hit a snag in his play down the stretch. Clean slate at the ready, Young told the media before the tournament, “I count the regular season as last season.” But can the Sooners, who depend on Young to play well in order to succeed as a unit, trust him? (Oklahoma @ Rhode Island: Thursday, 12:15 PM EST)


Marvin Bagley III, PF, Duke

He’s already collecting accolades. Blue Devil freshman Marvin Bagley III has been anointed ACC Rookie of the Year and ACC Player of the Year, leading Duke to a No. 2 seed in arguably the most difficult NCAA conference. Bagley’s scored at least 30 points and grabbed at least 15 rebounds four times this year, including during the ACC tournament, when he racked up 33 and 17. He’s proven he can handle the pressure. He’s confident. He believes he can be taken #1 overall in June. But can he lead Duke to a title first? (Iona @ Duke: Thursday, 12:45 PM EST)


Mikal Bridges, SG/SF, Villanova

The oldest player on our list at 21 entire years old is Mikal Bridges, a dynamic (and much improved) shooter who’d fit right into the NBA’s pursuit of positionless-ness. He’s a defensive nightmare, utilizing quickness, a 7’1″ wingspan, and plain ol’ defensive foresight: he can track, rim-protect, switch, and block threes. Villanova has built a reputation as a defensive team, and letting Bridges set the tone has opened everyone’s game up. We can’t wait to see who will fall victim to the Wildcats. (Radford @ Villanova: Thursday, 6:50 PM EST)


Mohamed Bamba, C, Texas

Harlem’s own Mohamed Bamba has taken the NCAA by storm. Already predicted to be the NBA’s next unicorn, Bamba could easily become a top-5 draft pick. Bamba is averaging a double-double and blocking nearly four shots a game, but his character is arguably more impressive: he’s bound by an incredible work ethic, humility, and a will to be coached. All of this, wrapped up in a 7-foot package, should be uniquely attractive to NBA GMs. There shouldn’t be any doubt Bamba can adjust to the NBA and improve a franchise. But first, he needs to survive the Wolf Pack. (Texas @ Nevada: Friday, 4:30 PM EST)


Deandre Ayton, PF/C, Arizona

Deandre Ayton is a sight to behold. He’s already Arizona’s all-time leading freshman scorer and rebounder, having recorded a school-record 23 double-doubles in his single season of play for the Wildcats. Ayton lit up the Pac-12 as a freshman, earning Pac-12 Freshman and Player of the Year honors. He’s a skilled scorer, a deft shot-blocker, an intelligent passer, and a 7-footer with a developed jump shot–a perfectly-formulated young star for the Memphis Grizzlies, who look like they’ll end up with the first choice of the 2018 Draft. Taking on 13-seed Buffalo should be no issue for Ayton and his Wildcats, who are looking to take it all this year. (Buffalo @ Arizona: Thursday, 9:40 PM EST)

Arsenal, who currently sit sixth in the Premier League, take on AC Milan, who are seventh in Serie A, at home in the second leg of their Europa League Round of 16 match.

Arsenal, who are currently in the midst of a tumultuous season that may see the end of legendary manager Arsene Wenger, was one of the favorites when the Europa League began and are poised to advance to the quarterfinals if they can hold serve at home.

With a Top Four finish in the Premier League essentially unattainable for Arsenal at this point, the Europa League represents their best chance to make the Champions League next season.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider: First Reveal & Release Date

Square Enix

As if it was any surprise to any gaming fan, the Tomb Raider series will be getting a new installment this fall with the release of Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

Since first being leaked in a photo of an unknown man riding a train in Montreal with his laptop displaying the title of the game back in 2016, pretty much everyone in the gaming world has known of the game’s existence. The game was then referenced again in a letter from developer Square Enix which teased the game’s title within the letter’s wording.

Now, Shadow of the Tomb Raider is ready to be revealed to the world along with the game’s release date and a short trailer. What’s interesting to note is that there is no console exclusivity deal happening with the release of Shadow of the Tomb Raider which happened with its predecessor Rise of the Tomb Raider; the game will be released on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC at launch.

From the short trailer that was revealed along with the announcement of the game, it seems that Lara’s next adventure is going to have something to do with the Ancient Mayan civilization. Multiple shots in the trailers suggest the game will have a lush and dense jungle area as well as multiple temples and tombs to explore.


Shadow of the Tomb Raider Release Date:

What: Shadow of the Tomb Raider
Release Date: September 14th, 2018
Platforms: PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC
Pre-Order: Amazon

The previous entry in the rebooted Tomb Raider series, Rise of the Tomb Raider, found itself in an interesting situation when the game was locked for one year to a console exclusivity deal with Microsoft’s Xbox One. The partnership helped the game get developed and marketed properly but many fans of the series were die-hard PlayStation fans (given the franchise’s roots) who did not own an Xbox One and the release of the ever similar Uncharted 4 only hurt the game’s chances at widespread acclaim. Seeing the game release on all platforms simultaneous is a smart and welcome move for the franchise.

Square Enix

Billed as “the climactic finale of Lara’s origin story”, Shadow of the Tomb Raider will have a full reveal on April 27th, 2018 and will release worldwide September 14th, 2018.

Also making waves in the world of Tomb Raider is the release of the highly anticipated film adaptation starring Alicia Vikander as the badass Lara Croft as well as Walton Goggins, Dominic West, and Daniel Wu. Releasing in theaters on March 16th, 2018, it’s no wonder why the reveal of Shadow of the Tomb Raider is happening so suddenly!

Florida International University’s pedestrian bridge has collapsed on Thursday afternoon. Located at 109th Ave and 8th Street, the bridge, which weighs around 950 tons, went up on Saturday, lowered into its final position. People near the incident have been sharing images and videos of the incident on social media. At this time, numerous people were said to have been injured and even killed, but it is unclear just how many people had been hurt from the incident.

What happened?

At this time, the bridge was believed to have collapsed on Thursday afternoon. At this time, the reasons for the incident and if there were any casualties is unknown. On their official Twitter account, the school released the following statements:

“#FIUalert Please avoid the areas between SW 117th Ave and 107th Ave. Police activity in the area.”

“#FIUalert: The pedestrian bridge across Southwest Eighth Street has collapsed, please avoid the area.”

“We are shocked and saddened about the tragic events unfolding at the FIU-Sweetwater pedestrian bridge. At this time, we are still involved in rescue efforts and gathering information. We are working closely with authorities and first responders on the scene. We will share updates as we have them.”

UPDATE: ABC News confirmed that people had been killed in the collapse, but the exact number of victims is unclear at this time. In addition, five to seven cars were crushed in the incident. According to CBS4 Local, Florida Highway Patrol official Jim DeFede issued the following statement, emphasizing how getting a number of casualties is unclear at this point:

“At this point, we can’t even tell how many cars are under there. We won’t have a count on bodies for a while. It’s bad. It’s really bad.”

An eyewitness, identified as Tiona Page, gave the following account to ABC News:

“As soon as I looked outside, I saw dust flying everywhere.”

“I knew the bridge had collapsed.”


What happens now?

Florida Governor Rick Scott issued the following statement on Twitter:

“I have spoken with Miami-Dade County Police Chief Juan Perez about the pedestrian bridge collapse at FIU. I will be in constant communication with law enforcement throughout the day.”

According to CBS Local, at least one person was sent to a local hospital as a trauma alert, as confirmed by the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue.

The bridge was created to serve as a safe route for students traveling between FIU’s Modesto A. Maidique Campus and the small city of Sweetwater, which has around 4,000 students. Beforehand, both students and faculty members asked for a pedestrian bridge at the crossing, as they would need to cross seven lanes of traffic to commute to the school.

Munilla Construction Management, the company behind the bridge, has also issued the following statement on Facebook:

“Our family’s thoughts and prayers go out to everyone affected by this terrible tragedy. The new UniversityCity Bridge, which was under construction, experienced a catastrophic collapse causing injuries and loss of life. MCM is a family business and we are all devastated and doing everything we can to assist. We will conduct a full investigation to determine exactly what went wrong and will cooperate with investigators on scene in every way.”

UPDATE: Senator Bill Nelson also released the following statements on Twitter:

“My heart goes out to the victims and the families affected by this tragic bridge collapse at @FIU.”

“Just talked to @NTSB Chairman Sumwalt who confirmed he’ll be launching and leading an investigation into the bridge collapse at @FIU.”

According to Vice News, Nelson also told an unidentified, local news station that the number of people who lost their lives in the collapse was “between six to ten people.”

As this story is breaking, more information will be updated as made available.

Joe Thomas Net Worth 2018: How Much Is Joe Thomas Worth?

0

Joe Thomas has officially announced his retirement, bringing to end one of the most consistent careers the NFL has ever seen. The third-overall pick in the 2007 NFL draft, Thomas spent all 11 of his NFL seasons at left tackle for the Cleveland Browns, excelling in one of the most underrated and yet heavily sought-after positions in football. As a top-five pick coming out of college, Thomas was already making more money than an offensive lineman usually expects to when he joins the pros; add 10 Pro-Bowl trips and at least one well-deserved contract, and you have one very big man with one very big mound of money. So just how much is the future Hall-of-Famer worth? Take a look below and find out:

Joe Thomas Net Worth As Of 2018: $52 Million

Thomas’s most recent contract was an interesting one, paying him $13.25 million per year, but with only $1.5 million dollars guaranteed. At the time of his retirement, Thomas was among the highest-paid players at his position, while his contract remained among the lowest in both total value and guaranteed money. Basically, the Browns were paying him a lot to lose every game last season, but not enough to keep him losing every game next season.

Early Life and College Career: 1984 – 2006

Thomas was born in Brookfield, Wisconsin on December 4, 1984, attending Brookfield Central High School and excelling both athletically and academically. Thomas played right tackle, defensive end, tight end, fullback, placekicker and punter for the Brookfield Central Lancasters, earning second-team All-American honors as an offensive guard and winning the Wisconsin Football Coaches Association Defensive Player of the Year Award in 2002. Nebraska, Colorado, and Notre Dame were among the major football colleges competing for Thomas’ letter of intent, but in the end he stayed close to home, choosing the University of Wisconsin.

Thomas would play for the Wisconsin Badgers from 2003 — 2006, earning first-team All-American honors in his third season. Seen as a top-15 pick in that year’s draft, Thomas considered leaving Wisconsin after his junior year to pursue a career in the NFL. Then things got, in an unfortunate sort of way, kind of interesting. In the 2003 Capital One Bowl against Auburn, Thomas was tasked with switching back to his high school position of defensive end, following a number of injuries to the Badgers’ defense. While Wisconsin would go on to beat Auburn 24-10, Thomas would end tearing his ACL while playing defense.

Thomas would eventually return for his senior year as an offensive captain, eventually winning the Outland Trophy as the nation’s best interior lineman, as well being named a consensus first-team All-American. Wisconsin would set a school mark with a 12-1 record.


NFL Career and Ironman Status: 2007 – Present

Instagram Photo

As the third-overall pick in the 2007 draft, Thomas signed a six-year contract worth $43 million, with $23 million guaranteed. He would play every snap of that rookie season, eventually finishing second in the Rookie of the Year voting to Adrian Peterson, with Thomas and Peterson finishing as the only two players to receive votes.

In his first seven seasons, Thomas asserted himself as the best offensive lineman in football, becoming only the second Cleveland Browns player after Jim Brown to make the Pro Bowl in each of his first seven years. Thomas would go on to make 10 consecutive Pro Bowls to begin his career, the second most of any player to begin a career behind only Hall of Famer Merlin Olsen, who made 14 consecutive Pro Bowls at defensive tackle between 1962 — 1975.

While Thomas’s blocking ability is inarguably among the greatest of all time, he is perhaps best known for his unique durability and consistency. Left tackle is one of the most damaging positions in any sport on the planet, a role requiring immense size and skill just to remain on the field, a job where concussions are the protocol. Which is what makes Joe Thomas so special. From his first snap in the NFL in September of 2007 to his last ever snap on October 22, 2017, Thomas didn’t miss a single offensive play. For over consecutive 10 years, over 160 consecutive games, and over 10,000 snaps in a row, Joe Thomas was on the field. Surprise! No one else has ever done that.

Of course, this makes the end of Thomas’s career all the more bittersweet. His first NFL injury would be his last, as a tricep tear ended his 11th season prematurely. Following an offseason of speculation about the future of Thomas’s career, made even more interesting by a recent bevy of big trades by the Browns, he would eventually announce his retirement.

So basically, the Browns will never catch a break. Ever.
