[quote=Anonymous]NP. Michael Oher was a hot football prospect before the Tuohys took him in. The Tuohys were huge football boosters for their kids' high school and for Ole Miss. They were rich and lived in a big house. All of their so-called charity was just done because of their love of the teams they supported. The book the Blind Side was written by an old family friend of the Tuohys. The movie made Michael Oher look like Lenny from Mice and Men and the Tuohys like saints. Then they ensured that almost all of the profits from his story went to their biological family. To make all this happen without risking him being entitled to their "real" money, they lied to him and told him that adult adoption wasn't possible in Tennessee. And then they had him sign away the rights to his story by telling him that a conservatorship the same as being adopted. And as far as anyone can see they have capitalized on their so-called "charity" ever since. They are sleazy and I'm not surprised that they hired Marty Singer. [/quote]
