Play pickup against Crowder for $400 or golf with Wes Matthews for $500!

Both of the former stars dads are selling their services on the new website Thuzio from Tiki Barber...

Other former local notables include Dale Ellis ($99 for a phone call), Anthony Mason ($2,000 to attend your birthday party), Gary Payton ($2,500 for lunch)

IWB you should copy this site for the Milwaukee market. Not a bad idea especially once the market starts to normalize some of the outrageous prices.

I would want Anthony Mason or Gary Payton pay me if they wanted to meet me. Otherwise, no thanks.

Hacksaw Jim Duggan used to do parties and such for $500 + airfare. I'm still pissed my best man didn't pony up for my bachelor party.

There is a ton of B list athletes on this site that make me laugh...

Damn...Dale Ellis charges $99 for a phone call? I'd rather spend $2.99 per minute.

Almost all of these guys are barely D list worthy.
Grantland wrote up a nice summary.. Closest to B list I would have to say are Kerri Strug (Psuedo Olympic Hero), Lawrence Taylor/Isiah Thomas (HOFers with questionable post-playing careers), Eric Dickerson, and Larry Holmes.

There are some good names in there.

Careful of Keith Hernandez, he might ask you to help him move.

Takeru Kobayashi? No way am I buying that guy dinner.

Can't believe that Steve Lavin is in there, as is Gene Keady - is Keady still on Lavin's staff?

Please tell me this is a joke. No one would really pay for this stuff, would they?

Its big money Mac - some of the prices seem a bit out of hand, but if you are a huge fan of one particular team, say the Saints, and you could get Willie Roaf to come to your birthday party? Stuff like that - I can easily see a market for it.

Corporate outings - If a company in Detroit can have someone like Isaiah Thomas come to your outing, hang with your clients, tell stories and take pictures? Might be totally worth it.

Yeah, honestly I can see this kind of stuff really doing well. And what a business model. Just stick up a web-site, get a bunch of D-list guys to sign up, and take a 10-20% cut.

How long until IWB creates his own version of this? Gato could attend your corporate outing for a mere $5. Caribou could bartend your daughter's sorority event for $25 (OK, he might be willing to pay you for that). IWb could go on a classic rant for $200. Personally, Hizzoner would be willing to pay $50 to guarantee Fr. Dan's Camera was not invited to an event.

Ok, let's lay it out here.....

Think of the former MU players in this area as I doubt anyone is going to fly people in.

So, how much would you pay to have the following players dine with you?

Tier 1 - Premier players
Jimmy Butler -
Lazar Hayward -
Wesley Matthews -
Travis Diener -
Steve Novak -

Tier 2 - players in close range back to 2000
Dwight Burke -
David Cubillan -
Jerel McNeal -
Maurice Acker -
Trend Blackledge -
Dan Fitzgerald -
Mike Kinsella -
Joe Chapman -
Chris Grimm -
Marcus Jackson -
Todd Townsend -
Terry Sanders -
Scott Merritt -
Robert Jackson -
Cordell Henry -
John Mueller -
Brian Barone -
Brian Wardle -
John Cliff -

Tier 3 - Throwback
George Thompson -
Jim McIlvaine -
Tony Smith -
Earl Tatum -
Dave Delsman -
Dean Marquardt -
Bill Neary -

Perhaps $100 to ensure the Mayor does NOT show up at Irish Fest in a kilt. Would probably be many, many takers.

Jealousy is an ugly thing, unlike a kilted Mayor.
