Normal Is Me does not have that much rep yet (10+)
First off, Brock Lesnar is a dumbass for ever signing a five year no compete clause.

Secondly, I admire the fact that he walked away from millions of dollars to go pursue a dream.

Thirdly, I hardly call trying to make the NFL within less than a year, after not playing since high school, trying to capture your dreams. If he really wished to make the NFL, I would hope he would have it in him to at least try and make another attempt. Or at least play in a minor league and work his way up to the NFL and pay some dues.

What this looks like is that Brock Lesnar just likes the money. Probally blown away half his money already on toys and now reconizes he is just a musclehead wrestler with no real education to fall back onto for the next five years.

A five year no compete clause is kind of unreasonable. I would bet the courts cut some time off of the no compete clause. Although, he signed it. So, I really feel the courts should make him honor his word and the contract he signed.
