Thinking of establishing a Kickstarter fund that will allow the Bengals to put tahoemoj on a handsome retainer to provide Vontaze Burfict with legal services as the need arises. It appears to be a career opportunity with growth potential.

Big week for the Ball brothers .. Lonzo with a triple double and LiAngelo leading UCLA in steals.

Unfortunately, my limited--NV and CA--Bar admission means that I can only help Vontaze out when he is playing at the Las Vegas Raiders, Carson Rams and Chargers, and Santa Clara Niners. And my specialty practice area of water rights and environmental permitting mean that my legal advice would be questionable, at best, unless 'Tez retires and gets into farming or mining.

Moving into farming mines would be the most Vontaze Burfict thing ever, so buckle up tahoe, you are about to lawyer the shit out of Nevada, CA

Tahoe, with your Vegas water rights expertise, maybe we should shift strategy and get you the OJ Simpson account.

Just think, your name in lights, right up there with the celebrity attorneys.

"Good morning, Cochran, Bailey, Tahoe, and Dershowitz, how may I direct your call?"

(According to my understanding of his parole terms, OJ is not supposed to be anywhere near adult beverages. So much for that order.)

I like where you're going with that. But in an effort to secure a life of luxury, and perhaps relationships with hip hop luminaries, for my children, I think I would rather partner up with the ghost of Robert Kardashian.
