Great game last night, the college football championship game. Joe Burrow is one hell of a football player, with a really fantastic background story.

After LSU’s 42-25 win over Clemson, Tiger alumnus and current Cleveland Brown Odell Beckham Jr. decided to go down on the field, pull out a stack of money, count it, and then hand it to wide receiver Justin Jefferson, which is the biggest middle finger you can possibly give to the NCAA:

Not sure this is what people had in mind when they called for paying the players, but I guess it works.

OBJ played in the 2012 national title game, when Bama beat LSU 21-0 (aka the Crimson Tide field goal game). He had 5 catches for 38 yards in a disappointing offensive showing for the Tigers.

Now, however, he is finally a champion.

By proxy.
