Wheres the picture of her in this thread?

Edit nvm I see it. Quote form an article. "Brooke was playing chess and Williams checkers. She got the money, the ring and then decide she can probably do better than Roy Williams."

Good.

I hope he gets it back. Why do women think ending a relationship gives them entitlement to keep whatever they want?

Probably about 100 years of divorce cases where they win in a landslide has something to do with it.

the mailed proposal sounds very bad but without knowing more details who knows what all it said. maybe she threw a big fit about receiving written mails or some such.

keeping that ring is just really bad form.
you don't keep a 75k ring if you never even truly accepted it.
it's not like he called it off; she did.
and now he has to make himself a public disgrace or let her have his 75k.


and why did her dad have it? how insane is that?

Where it's bad for her is she originally claimed she 'lost it', but the reality was that she gave it to her dad for safekeeping.

That pretty much screams gold digger right there.

It makes her and her family look like pathetic, small people.

Depends on the state. In some states if you don't marry the guy then the ring technically belongs to him. In other states the ring is considered a gift and once given you can't make her give it back. Legally that is.

But I agree with you on the moral side. Don't keep an engagement ring if things don't go right.

You hear this guys.

lol.

Wow. This is hilarious.

I'll give him this...that's a different way to pop the question, for sure. I know I've never heard of that before.

lol

I read her dad has the ring. Her DAD needs to give it back.

Dumb move mailing in a ring and proposal. I bet he wishes this story hadn't came out. :laugh2: We are low on football news and this story is all over the internet. People love a reason to slam Roy and the Cowboys. The national news outlets that have posted this story have a lot of Cowboys haters commenting.

I wonder if what she did should be construed as fraud and/or theft? She intentionally hid the fact that she still had the ring in order to keep it. Only after the insurance company got involved with a formal investigation did it come out that her father had it.

Roy could very well have thought she had it all along but wasn't going to return it under any circumstances. Getting the insurance involved to prove that she did have it in order to file the subsequent lawsuit seems to be logical way to go about it if initiating the lawsuit without proof she had the ring doesn't pass muster in the eyes of the court.

The second photo of her is bad. Looks like a hamster storing two day's worth of food pellets.

Yeah, I don't really know what it is about her that I don't find attractive. Maybe it's all the airbrushing, makes women look fake. I would wager in real life she looks better than these photoshopped pics.

I actually think Roy was incredibly intelligent in the way he approached this. The family straight up lied to him about having the ring(shady). Who loses a 75,000$ ring? He knew that getting the insurance company involved was the best course of action because lying to an insurance company would constitute fraud and it also gave him the basis of his lawsuit.

Her dad just comes across as a bitter man that got busted telling a lie. Sounds like he's just angry that he had to give up the ring in the end.

First off, even if I were the richest man in the world, I would not buy a 75k ring for an engagement or any woman unless we've been married a while.

Secondly, he must be clueless to not know she would refuse his proposal. If you are in sync with your woman, you know what the answer will be.

Thirdly, why would this lady dare keep that ring that didn't belong to her? And the father, who the heck is he? He should go fall off a cliff for possibly trying to get in his "grown" daughters business, and then trying to off with the ring.

Losers from both parties.

I doubt that he was clueless in not knowing. Love clouds judgement, and she could have been playing him all along. Couple those two things together and there's little if any chance that he would have known what was coming.

Back in 92 or 93 a football player at Tech asked his girlfriend to marry him during halftime of the homecoming game. Her response in front of 30k+ people?

"I can't."

Don't think he knew what was coming, and that's the reason for a lot of the butterflies guys get when proposing. The specter of rejection still hangs in the fog of uncertainty at the periphery of your consciousness, no matter how sure you are she'll say yes.

$75,000 is much less than the divorce settlement would have cost him.

She's almost as hot as JJ Berea's woman...lol.

She absolutely must return the ring. There are three cases were that is true: if they refuse the proposal, if they accept but then call off the wedding , if they cheat on their fiance before the wedding and he calls it off (the last one is tougher though).

no way...

the last 1 is easiest in my opinion

you wanna cheat? give me my ish back then, and go be with that guy

I think the video was a cool way to propose....especially if it was a video collage of their relationship.....now mailing the ring was lame....had he popped out of nowhere, dropped to a knee and asked for her hand as soon as the video was over, that would have been super clutch....and he probably would have gotten the yes he desired.

My boy Roy dropped the ball on this one....New Orleans game style.

I would say that maybe Roy was trying to test her love....but what a tacky way to do so....and honestly, I do not believe Roy is that much of a chess player....

I will merely stick with him fumbling away his love life....

I doubt this, but it would've been a classier way to do it.
