Checkin' the Box (Why boyz should have taken the mic from Shabazz on the podium)

"I'm bout to get this mic and talk crazy right now bruh!"

Big Momma once said, “Sometimes saying less is more baby.” Mr. Willie down at the car wash gave it to us like this, “You trying to do way too much playboy. Just stick to the scrip because if you keep talking they’re gonna figure you out.” Then the Dalai Lama shut the building down with, “Sometimes one creates a dynamic impression by saying something, and sometimes one creates as significant an impression by remaining silent.”

Well somebody should have told Shabazz Napier that before they put the mic in that dun's face while he was on the podium. After the UConn Huskies went to work on the Kentucky Wildcats to win their fourth national title since 1999, ole boy just couldn’t help himself. When they gave him the mic he started out great and then it went left.

“You’re looking at the hungry Huskies!” Great start pimpin’! Then this dun says, “Ladies and gentlemen, this is what happens when you banned us.”

What? They should have grabbed the mic after the  first sentence because he went left and hit the guard rail with that joint.

What he was talking about was the fact that UConn was barred from participating in the NCAA Tournament last year because of their academic performance or more specifically, lack thereof.

Now let’s keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1^st! Don’t get it twisted, I know that this is all a sham because the NCAA is raping boyz and making a killin' in revenues off of these cats. Any time you can hold a sellout basketball game in an arena that seats 80,000 people, broadcast the tourney on three networks simultaneously during the course of the tournament and get another network that isn't even hosting the games to set up shop for pre and post game then you already know it's a hustle. To top that off you had five freshmen playing in the freakin' game last night from UK that didn't "NEED" to go to not one single solitary class to be eligible to play in that game. So you know it's a scam. 

 The NCAA could care less if the duns at UConn graduate, go to class or even know where the freakin’ classes are. I get that playboy. But if the rule is to check the freakin’ box, then you gotta check the freakin’ box. That’s Real World 101!

Shabazz: "Hey man let me get it again? Teammates: Naw Dawg!"

The best thing to say after winning the ultimate prize would have been, “After being banned from the tournament last year. We made a commitment to one another to become better people and players and this is the result of that. I’m so proud of our team!” And keep it movin'! Because the more ole boy talked the more boyz figured that he doesn’t have a clue of how the world works.

Anytime you're blaming someone else for you not handling "YOUR" business you sound like a fool. That’s like a boy getting fired from his job for not doing his job and then eventually becoming the CEO of his own company and saying, “This is what you get for firing me!” That sounds crazy. Just handle your business because you already had it in you to succeed.

Everywhere you go in life there are going to be rules and regulations that you may or may not agree with. But if you’re going to succeed you’re going to have to follow them. There’s no way around it playa.

So in this case the UConn Huskies had to go to class and make the grades in order to be able to hold up the trophy. That’s what people in the real world have to do every day. You gotta give to get. You can’t ever do what you want to do without first having to check the freakin’ box. Congrats to UConn for checkin’ it and winning the ultimate prize! Stop me when I start lyin’!

Holla At Ya Boy!
