Lions wide receiver Roy Williams is making $1,515,000 this year, which is actually a little less than you might think, considering Jon Kitna is being paid $5 million. Therefore, Williams, under such obvious financial constraints, has to keep a close eye on his bottom line. That is to say: He's amazingly cheap.

Check out Williams

On being cheap: I am cheap, I’m a cheap date. Get you some McDonalds, with some cheese on it and I’m just really cheap, man. I’m very low key, I like to stay home. I like to go bowling on Monday nights and I go to the casino every once and awhile. Other than that, you won’t see Mr. Williams out at all.

On what he plays at the casino: I’m a craps and blackjack guy. I like to throw the dice a little bit. If that doesn’t work out, I’ll take it to the cards.

You do tip the pizza guy? There’s no such thing as a tip. But I am really polite and I say ‘Thank you sir.’ … The pizza man knows, when he comes to my address, he’s coming for free.

If you’re on a date and she wants to go to a nice place, what do you do? I might just take her to the casino and get her a free buffet. If I did take a date out to a nice place, I’d take her to a nice place, like a Red Lobster or something. It wouldn’t be Morton’s or nothing like that.

If a man won't spend a little money on me to begin with, he doesn't get a second chance.:)

He spends alot of his oney on traveling back to odessa, you can run into him alot during the offseason and offweeks, he is always at the mall and at pick up games.

Are we talking about certain body fluids and/or solids here?:devil:

Im a nice as I can be to waiters and such. Somehow a spit sauce burger just doesnt appeal to me. And I know if I were a waiter and someone treated me like crap, Id make dang sure they ate something that wasnt meant to be eaten. :devil:

With as many women out there as there are campaigning for women's rights and whatnot...I say "lady, you wanna level playing field....okay..then you take ME out and YOU pay...that'll make us about even ...and when you're done w/ that, change the oil in the trucks and mow the yard". :D :p

just think though...if you eat a spit burger from a waitress, and she's a hottie, it's basically like you were making out with her!!!

LOL this reminds me of an email I received a few weeks ago - too funny. Not board appropriate, but goes along the lines of your last comment. :p

I've got to agree with IHStangFan on this one.

The statement, "If a man won't spend a little money on me to begin with, he doesn't get a second chance.", is, in my opinion, as sexist as me saying "If a gal won't help me pour the milk to begin with, she's not getting a second trip to the cookie store."

I like the way you gentlemen think.

This may surprise you BUT....I am going to side with the guys here. I am all for being thrifty and not overly extravagant...you really don't have to spend alot of money to have a good time.

It's all about the company you keep. If you bore the crap out of me, you wouldn't get a second date regardless of your checking account balance.:)

If YOU ask me out, first time date, then I expect you to pay for it. It doesn't have to be fancy or extravagant, but not mickey D's.:D
I certainly don't mind paying for my part after we have been dating. But nobody likes a cheap skate. Man or woman. And I agree with apantherfan, if you bore me to death or are a jerk, you won't get a second chance regardless of your checking account balance. It's not about money, it about respect.

RESPECT? Women are as disrespectful a breed as they come.

I have seen daytime TV. So, give me a break.

Now that's a much nicer, less confrontational way of putting it. I guess the key to all of it is that the one doing the asking is the one to be paying the tab.....man or woman.
