Affiliated

Baby Ray is still doing his thing!

My old man would always say, “Watch the company that you keep Doc! Because when the police show up they’re taking everybody to jail.” Hood protocol says, “If you’re with them then you’re affiliated bruh and we’re comin’ to get you too!”  The law says, “If you’re with a person that commits a crime and you do nothing to stop the crime or to report it. Then you’re just as guilty of that same crime.”

So as we praise Ray Lewis for a Hall of Fame career as he prepares to retire and boyz give him props for being one of the greatest team leaders of all time because he sure isn't the best linebacker of all-time! I don't know why boyz are acting like Laurence Taylor never played the game but whatever.

I keep asking myself, “Do we love our dogs more than we love human life or do we love our dogs more than we love our women? Because there weren’t any protects when Ray returned to the NFL after essentially getting away with murder in 2000 or when Big Ben was cleared of multiple sexual assaults in 2010. But folks went crazy over Michael Vick for killing dogs even after he spent two years in prison and losing $100 million in the process! Am I saying what he did was right? Absolutely not but I am just sayin’!

I hear my usual clown in the background screaming, “Dude, he was cleared bruh so it’s all good! Leave it alone!” OK, O.J. was acquitted too bruh! Barry Bonds was never found guilty of using steroids either but boyz wouldn't let it rest though. Just because you get acquitted doesn't mean you're clean! I'm just sayin', nobody tripped when Ray was cut loose! It didn't mean anything to anybody that two cats were left dead in the street! Not one protest bruh but folks hated Tiger Woods for cheating on his wife! Am I justifying cheating? Absolutely not. I'm just sayin', nobody tripped on Baby Ray.

 Let’s keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! If your boyz buy knives in the sporting good store the day before the murders that match the murder weapons while you’re doing an in-store promotion at the same store. Then the next night you get into a squab with some cats out in front of the club after the Super Bowl. Then when you jump into the limo the cats you were fighting with are lying in the street dead.

Then witnesses report that the limo you were in pulled over and someone dumped bloody clothes in the trash. The white suite you were wearing was never found. Then the limo driver changes his story when he gets to trial saying that he never said that he heard you say as the car pulled off, “Just keep your mouth shut and don’t say nothing.”

All I’m saying is give this cat props for being a great football player but on some real talk we never should have even seen this guy become a Hall of Famer. We ain’t fools and we know that money talks and some cats walk! Even if he didn’t kill these cats he was with the duns that did and in the world I live in you’re just as guilty. Where I'm from it's called being affiliated.

When I was a senior in high school back in Gary, In. a 15 year old kid named Paula Cooper and two of her friends went to rob an old lady in the neighborhood on lunch hour. Paula and one girl went into the house and the other girl just stood in the driveway as the look out. Paula tripped when the lady resisted and stabbed her more than 28 times killing her. Paula was initially sentenced to death but it was later reduced to 60 years. The chick that was standing in the driveway got 45 and she didn’t even see the stabbing.

So how can  folks just act like two duns aren’t dead and keep it moving but give Vick the blues even after he paid for his crimes? I’ve often wondered if it would have made a difference if the two cats that died had been from wealthy homes from the suburbs. If their names had been for example, Jacob O’Donnell and Tyler Polawski instead of Richard Lollar and Jacinth Baker we would be talking about the waste of talent of Baby Ray as opposed to the Hall of Fame career for Ray Lewis?

Now boyz have been saying that it was self-defense because the other cats got it started. If that was the case why ditch the gear and take off bruh? When you run you change the game! I know a whole lot of duns sitting in jail right now that defended themselves and handled it wrong but didn't have Ray's bread to beat it! I'm just sayin'!

It’s sad but true! ALL human life is important but the judicial system still hasn’t figured that out yet! The skin color of the guys left lying in the street should never matter because justice is for EVERYONE. All I know is, somebody’s baby boy didn’t come home and some kid is being raised without a father today because the world seems not to care because it’s all fun and games! Now I don't have a Heaven or a Hell to put Ray Lewis in bruh! I'm just sayin', don't act like this situation never happened while you're singing his praises.

Holla At Ya Boy!
