On & Poppin'?

"Just sit tight bruh! It won't be long before I'm eating again!"

If I’ve said it once I’ve said it a hundred times, “The best place in the world to be from is the ghetto because if you can survive there you can survive anywhere.” Rarely does a game or hustle get run that you don’t see a mile away or at least someone in your inner circle will catch it before it gets too close. That’s why I surround myself with cats that grew up in the same type of environment that I did because they're just as sharp as I am when it comes to keeping their heads on a swivel. That way we can always protect one another from scams or just simply falling for the Oakey Doke.

Now I’ll have to admit that I hadn’t picked up on LSU setting up a hustle until one of my boyz pulled my coat on that joint yesterday. They’re about to run a major game and the set up is invisable to the naked eye but sloppy and as plain as day to boyz trained to see it. Not even a month ago the Honey Badger was dismissed from the LSU football team for failing drug tests according to the university.

The date was August 10^th to be exact. After the dismissal there was speculation that the Honey Badger would return for the 2013 season. However, the LSU Senior Associate Athletic Director for Compliance Bo Bahnsen stated and I quote “Tyann “Honey Badger” Mathieu cannot return to the LSU football team at any time in the future.”

So instead of going to an FCS school where he could play right away, Mathieu decided to go to a rehabilitation center in Houston on August 14^th. Let’s keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1^st! Most rehab programs are 30 days long bruh! So he would at least be there for that much time if the intent is to treat this cat, right?

 Now all of a sudden after Alabama looks unbelievably good on Saturday night against Michigan we start hearing reports on Sunday September 1^st that the Badger would be enrolling in school at LSU on Tuesday September 4^th. You have to admit that the move was pretty sweet. Ole Les and his boyz are working the deal and nobody’s the wiser but cats like us that have been highly trained in spotting the hustle. So we'll just sit over in the corner playing domino’s while the whole thing plays out.

It’s like being in Vegas and standing out on the strip at midnight. The naked eye doesn’t see what’s really going on out there. However, if you’ve been highly trained to keep the hustle in front of you then you see all of the pimps, prostitutes and drug dealers in plain sight. I always stand out there and watch the circus because it’s hilarious to see all the people walking up and down the strip that are clueless to what’s really going on right in front of them. It’s pure entertainment.

Well, I felt like I was in Vegas on Tuesday watching this thing play out in the news. During Les Miles' media luncheon he was down playing the Honey Badger returning to the team in 2013. Now when they were asking him about next year Miles pulls a straight G move and said that he wasn’t aware of any school policies that would prevent Mathieu from returning to the team in 2013. Now didn’t ole boy in the compliance department make it clear that he couldn’t return at all in the future? Now unless 2013 isn’t considered the future in Baton Rouge, somebody needs to let me know!

See all of these cats are asking about next year and my boyz and I are waiting on the Honey Badger to run out of the tunnel in Death Valley this season. They’re setting it up right now bruh! These boyz are about to pull a Dallas Cowboys Dez Bryant move out of the trunk. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Honey Badger is being walked to class by trainers today to make sure that he gets there.

 Somebody will be with this dun every time he makes a move. They’re even going to have a cat sleeping with him in those little twin beds in the dorm! It’s going to be like Ludacris in that piece, “When I move you move.” If the Badger takes a leak, the trainer takes a leak. After a couple of weeks of Tiger supervision you’ll see that #7 making plays in 2012 and on November 3^rd when the Crimson Tide role into town it’ll be on and poppin’!

There is no way that he’s going to be that close to the action and not participate especially in the south where football is KING! That’s where boosters can’t help themselves bruh! They’ve got too much bread and too much time on their hands not to get in the way. In my Huggy Low Down voice, "Wait for it!"

Holla At Ya Boy!
