Why all Nova's Kris Jenkins has to do now is graduate and keep his nose clean! "Set for Life"

"C'mon bruh! Y'all didn't know?"

Mia Hamm once said, "True champions aren't always the ones that win, but those with the most guts." Dan Gable, the former Olympic wrestler, gave it to us like this, "Gold medals aren't really made of gold. They're made of sweat, determination, and a hard-to-find alloy called guts." Then Steve Prefontaine, the former Olympic middle and long distance runner, broke it down so that it would forever be broken when he spit, "I'm going to work so that it's a pure guts race at the end, and if it is, I am the only one who can win it." 

Well playas...ole Kris Jenkins felt the same way on Monday night when he put on his big boy drawers, stepped up and drained the game winnin' 3 at the buzzer to help his Villanova Wildcats win the National Championship. Talk about a boy havin' some poise and when it went in he looked at the world like he expected that joint to fall! He gave a boy the look of, "Really? You didn't doubt Ya Boy did you?" 

Let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! I'm just glad that the national championship game lived up to the hype because the Final Four on Saturday was straight trash! Duns got out there and got the brakes beat off of them. They should have made Oklahoma walk home bare footed for the foolishness they showed up with. Wheredeydodatat? 

However, North Carolina and Villanova showed up like two gangstas ridin' deep in Big Body Chevys in the projects fightin' over turf and the same chick. Every minute of the joint was worth watchin'! And when ole boy from UNC, Marcus Paige, knocked down the double-clutch junk of a three to tie the joint at 74 with 4.7 seconds left, you knew that it was Chris Brown up in that piece, "On and Poppin'!" 

Kris Jenkins came down and put that joint up like Big Momma pullin' a switch off of the tree in the mid-seventies. He took his best swing but it took a minute for you to feel it. Ice cold bruh! When they shot 71 percent in the national semifinal on Saturday against ole dull Oklahoma there was a feelin' that they couldn't be beaten on Monday night. Why? Because they had the "IT" factor. 

For years boyz have been blastin' the big homie Jay Wright because ever year he'd get his teams into the tournament only to wet the bed. This year he wasn't playin' and the gangsta pin strip suits he was rockin' put boyz on notice. They said, "We ain't playin' with you boyz this year and only the REAL playas are walkin' out alive." Villanova walked out with the trophy and the girl on Monday night in a game that will live in NCAA Tournament lure. 

For the next 50 years boyz will be showin' Kris Jenkins knockin' that three down like my boy Keith Smart in the hip hugger shorts from Indiana (IU schoolmate) or my real homeboy from G.I. Renaldo Thomas slappin' the floor in disbelief when NC State knocked off Phi Slamma Jamma in 1983 to win it all and Jimmy V couldn't find a boy to hug. 

Yeah bruh, all Kris Jenkins has to do now is graduate and keep his nose clean and he'll live good for the rest of his life. Trust me on that pimpin'! There isn't a high end marketing or sales job in the state of Pennsylvania he can't just walk in and get today bruh. He's the cat that hit the 3 to win Villanova the NATIONAL TITLE in 2016! That's his first name for the rest of his life and with a degree it's potentially worth millions over a career. 

I've seen duns that played at Indiana that couldn't even hoop or win a national title get crazy jobs simply because they were on the darn team. This dun hit the game winner to win the school's second national title in 31 years? Aw, he's set for life playboy! Stay in Philly and he's a king! Stop me when I start lyin'!

Why what Geno is doin' is far greater than what John Wooden did. "Skewed"

"You already know what you can do right?"

Mark Twain once said, "All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence, and then success is sure." Martin Luther King Jr. gave it to us like this, "Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity." Then Confucius poured out a little liquor for all the dead homies when he spit, "Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance." 

Well playas...some of these fake media-types will have a boy fooled until they actually say or write something. Why? Because they don't know many times the extent of their own ignorance because somebody actually hired them. On Saturday Boston Globe columnist Dan Shaughnessy tweeted, "UConn Women beat Miss St. 98-38 in NCAA tourney. Hate to punish them for being great, but they are killing women's game. Watch? No thanks"

Let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! This is a freakin' columnist for a major newspaper bruh! Really? Now don't get it twisted, I could give two dead flies smashed about women's college basketball or women's basketball in general. However, what Geno Auriemma and Co. are doin' is unbelievable. They're literally beatin' the brakes of boyz with no remorse! Now whether you wanna watch it or not what he's doin' is amazin'! 

We've haven't seen this type of dominance in any sport since John Wooden's UCLA run. But this is even more remarkable because the playin' field isn't skewed. C'mon bruh! When Wooden was rollin' at UCLA most major programs in the country still weren't allowin' blacks the opportunity to attend their universities. Sure, UCLA had brothers but not every school they played had them or the best of the best. Especially durin' their runs in the mid to late 1960's because most schools were still trippin' on race and were to a large degree still segregated. Most of the best black players were still playin' at HBCU's (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) or smaller schools. California was way ahead of the curve when it came to people bein' treated equally than in most parts of America at the time. 

Now I'm not sayin' that Wooden had all of the black players bruh. What I'm sayin' is that there were very few programs that had a roster full of them. So if 70 percent of the best players walkin' around are black and they're not competin' against you then it's it's skewed. Why? Because you aren't competin' against the best players black or white every night. Don't argue that playa. More than 70 percent of college and pro basketball players are black and when John Wooden was rollin' that wasn't the case. But black folks were playin' basketball somewhere. Then when you throw that off of the table UCLA had Lou Alcindor (Kareem) who was the best college basketball player probably ever that was freakin' 7 feet tall and then two years later they got Bill Walton who was 7 feet too!!! And they had them both for 4 years each!!! Not playin' against the talent the entire talent pool. 

It's like boyz tellin' me that Babe Ruth was the best to ever play when he didn't play against the best black and Latino players alive at that time. The talent pool was somewhere else. The Negro League and in those Latin countries. Not Major League Baseball. Stop it! You sound crazy!!

Geno doesn't have that to his advantage! Everybody can recruit everybody these days playa. He's just kickin' everybody's butt in the recruitin' game and he's out coachin' EVERYBODY. So what he's doin' is nothn' short of remarkable and for a dun in the press to hate on him for winnin' is a complete sucka move. 

For a boy to even make that type of remark tells you everything you wanna know about this dun. From the gate it tells you that he's NEVER played a lick of organized sports in his life. Why? Because if he had, his mind never would have gone there. He would have understood just how difficult it actually is to be that dominant. Over the past 15 years UConn has won 9 of their 10 national titles and they're beatin' the brakes off of boyz now on their way to their fourth straight. Only a hater would knock them for that bruh! 

So when you hear these cats discountin' greatness and they're supposed to be sports writers. How much credibility do you really give them? Stop me when I start lyin'!

The caption under the photo isn't real but its REAL talk! 

How Coach K straight "Pimp Hustled" the media and got away with it! "Juice"

"Naw baby! It wasn't me baby! Not me baby! Where's my coat?" 

Dorothy L Sayers, the renowned English crime writer, once said, "The great advantage about telling the truth is that nobody ever believes it." Josafina Vasquez Mota, the Mexican business woman, gave it to us like this, "There are two ways of lying. One, not telling the truth and the other, making up statistics. Eric Carr broke it down like a G at hustlas convention, "I can't say why people lie; they just do. Everyone has their own reasons for not telling the truth."

Well playas...somebody better ask Coach K what his reasons are for not tellin' the truth when it comes to the foolishness that went on after his Blue Devils got the brakes beat off of them by Oregon on Thursday night. Ole boy released a statement Saturday that said, "Today, I spoke with Oregon head coach Dana Altman and apologized to him for my remarks to Dillon Brooks following our game. It is not my place to talk to another team's player and doing so took the focus away from the terrific game that Dillon played."

Okay bruh, let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! This dun put out a statement to apologize to Oregon's coach for hollerin' at his player that he shouldn't have. Yes, that is correct because you can't holler at another man's player, wife or kid. That's code and Coach K broke that joint. 

However, he didn't apologize for lyin' to a boy about sayin' what he said in the first place. 

Okay, for all of you simple minded individuals let me put it where the goats can get it. So if you missed this foolishness altogether let me school you so we can have an understandin' of the street code boyz gotta live by out here.

Dillon Brooks hit a 3 as the shot clock wound down late in Oregon's 82-68 smashin' of Duke. Ole boy celebrated after he made the shot. So after the game he told all of the media-types in the post-game presser that Coach K told him after the game that he's "too good of a player to be showing off in the end." 

Then when a dun asked Coach K if he said it, he tried to play dumb on a boy and old school pimp hustle him. He flat out denies that he said it altogether with, "I didn't say that! You can say whatever you want. Dillon Brooks is a hell of a player. I said, 'You're a terrific player.' And you can take whatever he said and then go with it, all right? 

That's what we call a pimp hustlin' in the hood bruh! He denied it. Then told a boy to believe whatever he wants to believe because you're goin' to believe whatever you're gonna believe anyway. He may as well have had on a full length mink coat some purple gators and rockin' a Goldie perm when he said it. Coach K can move through the hood with ease with skills like that bruh. Bishop Magic Don Juan was so proud of him that he gave him a pimp cup for that performance.  

Like a seasoned old hustla he still never admitted to the lie once the audio came out of him actually sayin' it. He responds in full pimp form with some Southernplayalisticcadillacfunkynusic bumpin' in the background, "In the postgame press conference, I reacted incorrectly to a reporter's question about my comment to Dillon."

Naw bruh, you lied!! Just say that. But ole pimps will never fess up. Why? Because they're old pimps! After the press conference he jumped in the ride with Nelly bumpin' that "Pimp Juice" all the way back to Durham. 

Don't get it twisted bruh, Coach K is one of the greatest coaches of all-time! However, that dun straight up lied to a boy and nobody's callin' him on it. Don't put a wack statement out and think that the REAL G's watchin' this foolishness aren't goin' to peep game. Stop me when I start lyin'!

And Coach K doesn't even know who Nelly or Pimp Juice is bruh. It's all jokes playa.  

The REAL reason Indiana got the brakes beat off of them! "Dawgs"

"I see you playboy! Keep runnin' these boyz!" 

Jay-Z once said, "The burden of poverty isn't just that you don't always have the things you need, it's the feeling of being embarrassed every day of your life, and you'd do anything to lift that burden." Emily Osment, the famous actress, gave it to us like this, "I don't get embarrassed easily, and I do silly things all the time!" Then Richard Branson broke it down like a playa at a gator seminar in Detroit when he spit, "Do not be embarrassed by your failures, learn from them and start again." 

Well playas...sometimes it okay to be embarrassed by your failures when a boy makes you look completely inept in front of Big Momma. When a boy takes all of your penny candy, Funions, red pop and your Jordan's on the way to school you need to be embarrassed bruh! North Carolina beat the brakes off of Indiana 101-86 and the score wasn't even indicative of the real beat down Big Momma had to watch. 

Let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! I was bein' nice with the way I just described that! North Carolina walked into the joint like some gangstas at the playground and just mopped the Hoosiers across the floor. They had no answer for Marcus Paige all night! That dun was 6 of 9 from 3-point range and finished with 21 points. UNC shot 51 percent from the field and 55 percent from behind the arc. But most importantly they had better athletes bruh! 

North Carolina got up and down the floor on these boyz! Point blank!!! Yeah, Yogi did what Yogi does but he can't beat a boy by himself. Why? Because he's 5'10" but his Match.com profile say he's 6 feet tall and light skinned. Ole boy finish with 25 points and Troy Williams dropped off his 21 but those two were the only two cats willin' to fight for the Jordan's when it came down to it. They got not help off of the bench with a total of 21 points from them. 

Yeah playboy, I know that UNC's bench only popped off 17 points but every dun in the car that pulled up from the tip wearin' Carolina blue finished in double figures. AND THEY HAD BETTER ATHLETES!!!! It is what it is! I don't live in the world of what should be, I live in the world of what is. 

Like I've been sayin' for YEARS!!! In order for IU to compete at the next level they've got to start gettin' some dawgs to come to Bloomngton!! Every time they run into teams with some dawgs, not some toy puddles they wet the bed!! And on Friday night they soiled the mattress to the point where Big Momma can't even turn it over. They did play bad, they just got out played. Stop me when I start lyin'!

2) Spit: verb - to say
3) Dun: noun - the person in question, dude, guy, etc. It's whoever I'm talkin' about and its non-gender specific. 
4) Dawgs: noun - players with some heart. Boyz that can play in the projects in the cage in a Saturday afternoon and fight a boy if need be for his sneakers. And that isn't just black players from the hood either bruh because a dun like Larry Bird could have grown up in the G (Gary, Indiana) and still held his own. Not just because of his talent but because of his heart

The caption under the photo isn't real but its REAL talk! 

Why these young boyz BETTER appreciate IU Basketball while it's HOT! "The Yard"

In my Biggie voice, "If you don't know! Now you know!" 

Lord Action once said, "History is not a burden on the memory but an illumination of the soul." John F. Kennedy got smart with a boy when he said, "History is a relentless master. It has no present, only the past rushing into the future. To try to hold fast is to be swept aside." Then ole dull Napoleon Bonaparte took all the gangstas gold chains and sneakers when he spit, "History is the version of past events that people have decided to agree upon." 

Well playas...history is the version of events that I know to be true and as a matter of fact, especially when it comes to Indiana University! On Saturday night these young boyz runnin' around this state finally got a taste of what all of us old heads grew up believin' was normal or at the very least expected! Seein' Indiana ballin' with confidence and advancin' to the Sweet 16! They knocked off No.4 seeded Kentucky 73-67 in a heavy weight fight that reminded a boy of the old Ali/Frazier joints. It's a shame that these two schools can't drop their pride off at the door and figure out a way to continue the rivalry annually. 

Let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! As I'm watchin' the Hoosiers advance I started goin' down memory lane and I immediately thought to myself that these young boyz don't have a clue of how much fun it was to be a student on the yard when IU basketball was IU BASKETBALL or to even grow up in this state when IU Basketball was IU BASKETBALL! 

I started thinkin' about how it was when I was on the yard in B-town after a win like that bruh! Party in the Flame Room at McNutt! The Sigmas are throwin' down with DJ Whip on the one's and two's! Boyz steppin' all night until somebody pushes the wrong cat. The Sigmas and Nupes end up squabbin' for no reason then they make up and keep steppin'!  After set over at somebody's apartment in Varsity Villas and then once the police breaks that up everybody is headed over to the Nupe House and we're goin' till' it's empty and the sun is shinnin'! Only to do it all over again next weekend at the Delta party with the after set...you got it, at the Nupe House!!!  

Oh, y'all don't know about Hooligans on Thursday night on Kirkwood or BW3 Tuesday nights on 10th street! Now it's called Buffalo Wild Wings and the joint is on Kirkwood! It's you're at least 45 years old you still say BW3 no matter how many times your kid corrects you! But if you're an old head then you know Indiana basketball was once an elite program that boyz had to respect even if they didn't like it. 

They were the duns that had 5 championship banners blowin' in the rafters in Assembly Hall and at that time they were recent memory! Winnin' Big Ten titles was a normal occurrence and goin' to the NCAA Tournament and advancin' was expected. 

It was nothin' to be on the yard and goin' to class with cats that were All-Americans! Dappin' boyz up in front of Ballantine Hall or hoopin' in the summer at the Hyper with duns like Calbert Cheaney, Steve Alford, Jay Edwards, Keith Smart, the big homie Greg Graham etc. You knew the legends when you saw them like Randy Whitman, Scott May, George McGinnis etc. These young boyz around here walk past Quinn Buckner and don't have a clue of who he is. He's the only cat in the history of basketball to win a high school, college, NBA and Olympic championship and he's an IU legend!!! You can't be an IU student and not know that. Shake that man's hand when you run into him bruh. 

Even though I couldn't stand Bobby Knight I respected him because he was winner and he got in his players butts at all cost. We knew that the hoopers wanted to be wild on the yard but they knew that ole Bob would find out. So they would tell the fellas, "Naw playa I'm cool on that bruh! I'll see y'all later." Cuz Bob wasn't playin'!  

Now watchin' IU basketball was like watchin' paint dry for all of the brothas but they won and that was good enough for us. We had braggin' rights all over the state and that kept duns from Purdue from even comin' our way with some foolishness. 

I just hope these young boyz appreciate the Hoosiers advancin' to the Sweet 16 as much as I do today because it ain't promised like all of us old heads thought that is was. Stop me when I start lyin'!

The REAL reason ole boy from Baylor blasted that fake media-type! "Crocodiles"

"You know what I really wanted to tell that dun don't you?"

As I'm watchin' boyz go into the post-game presser. I hear these three cats arguin’ about the stupidity of people in the world. Robert Heinlein, the science fiction writer, said, “Never underestimate the power of human stupidity.” Albert Einstein walked up to a boy to confirm that he had credentials and said, “The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.” Then Chris Rock snatched ole boy’s credentials right off of his neck and shouted” I don’t get high, but sometimes I wish I did. That way, when I messed up in life I would have an excuse. But right now there’s no rehab for stupidity.”

Well playas...another fake media-type has proven that these schools of journalism aren't teachin' a boy a darn thing! In my Bernie Mac voice, "Notin'!! Notin'!!!" After 12th seeded Yale upset 5th seeded Baylor on Thursday night  79-75 some dun that has the nerve to call himself a reporter asked the ultimate dumb question to Baylor forward Taurean Prince.

Let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! It wasn't that the question was so dumb. It was that ole boy askin' the question was tryin' to punk the kid in the way that he asked it. So because he tried to play him, ole boy took that dun to the ghetto real quick and dropped him off.

Fake media-type: “You said you got out-rebounded, I was surprised, you did … How does Yale out-rebound Baylor?”

Prince: “Um, you go up and grab the ball off the rim when it comes off, and then you grab it with two hands, then you come down with it and that’s considered a rebound. So they got more of those then we did.” 

BOOM!! Where I'm from playboy that's called bein' read or in other words, "Back up off of me fool!"

Let me put it where the goats can get it bruh! These journalism schools are doin’ a horrible job of teachin’ boyz how to ask questions. Remember when the dun asked Karl Anthony Towns from Kentucky last year at the Final Four after they lost to Wisconsin a dumb "A" question? A dull reporter asked him, “Karl, could you talk about Kaminsky and what if anything is unique about defending him?” Then his teammate, Andrew Harrison, responded with his hand over his mouth thinkin’ that nobody was gonna hear it, “F**** that N******!” Remember that?

And he meant nothin' racially by what he said bruh, that's just how black kids talk when they are speakin' amongst themselves. It is what it is.  I don't live in the world of what should be. I live in the world of what is.

Now all of you simple minded individuals will ask, why is that a dumb question Jay? First of all playa, you NEVER ask a question that there’s no answer to. Black Culture Code of Conduct Rule No.1 is, “Never ask a boy about what another man is doin’!” In other words, you NEVER ask a man what he thinks about another man. I hear guys in NBA locker rooms doin’ it all of the time and it drives me crazy because there is no answer to that question. All you’re gonna get is a canned answer and if he’s pissed off he might say anything. You can’t ask any shape or form of that question. Why? Because it violates every square inch of the Code of Conduct in black culture. That's why it's a dumb question.

As well as askin' ole boy from Baylor how does Yale out-rebound Baylor? There is no answer to that question bruh!!! The reason that there is no answer to that question is because he's NOT GOIN' TO ANSWER IT!!!! IF HE'S NOT GOIN' TO ANSWER IT THERE IS NO ANSWER TO THE QUESTION!!! And if you understood how to ask questions and the culture of the player you're talkin' to, you would know that in that situation there is no answer to that question.

How do I know so much about askin' questions? Well bruh, I've been in sales for 26 years and I'm one of the best in the world at what I do. Why am I one of the best in the world? Because I have won multiple national sales championships with multiple companies that are international. If I don't asked good questions I don't eat. So therefore, it is imperative that I ask questions that have actual answers to them. Not closed ended questions bruh! I have to ask open ended multi-layered questions that require a boy to think before he answers them. Those are the types of questions that allow my family to eat. I can't eat askin' dumb questions.

There are any number of ways he could have asked that kid about them gettin' out-rebounded. He could have simply asked ole boy, "Taurean, what were they doin' all night that caused you guys so many problems on the boards?" That way he would have had to think about his response and at the very least given an intelligent answer.

Here's the problem with some fake media-types askin' questions at press conferences. They're only askin' a question for the sake of askin' a question and they don't understand the culture or background of the dun they are talkin' to. So they have no idea how a boy may respond because they can't read him before they ask the question. Why? Because they don't understand him!!

Let me break it down for you pimpin', would you listen to the Crocodile Hunter tell you about the habits of the crocodile if he knew nothin’ about the crocodile? So why would you listen to sports writers talk about the habits of players or try to interview players that they know nothin’ about. You can’t effectively interview cats that you don't understand. If you understood the players you wouldn’t keep askin’ them stupid questions. That’s why you keep gettin’ dumb idiotic answers and gettin' embarrassed on national television when you try to punk a boy at his own game. Stop me when I start lyin’!

The caption under the photo isn't real but its REAL talk! 

How the duns in the EAST Regional got set up by the committee! "War"

"Aight playboy let's get it in!" 

Howard Cosell once said, "The ultimate victory in competition is derived from the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your best and that you have gotten the most out of what you had to give." Nancy Pearcey gave it to us like this, "Competition is always a good thing. It forces us to do our best. A monopoly renders people complacent and satisfied with mediocrity." Then General George S. Patton walked up on a boy and pushed him in the face when he spit, "Battle is the most magnificent competition in which a human being can indulge. It brings out all that is best; it removes all that is base. All men are afraid in battle. The coward is the one who lets his fear overcome his sense of duty. Duty is the essence of manhood." 

Well playas...you can't be a coward this time of year especially if you're a college basketball player gettin' it in in the NCAA Tournament! And you definitely can't be a punk if you're playin' in the East Regional! I don't know what boyz did to deserve it but the committee was on one when they put the East joint together. 

Let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! Talk about havin' enemies bruh! Have you seen the East regional and what a boy has to go through to get outta that joint? North Carolina is the No.1 seed but they've got Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia and Xavier in that joint. Not to mention the one or two boyz that are hidin' in the bushes waitin' to sneak attack and pull an upset. It's crazy!!! 

Whoever gets outta there either has the best shot at winnin' it all or they'll be so beat up that they'll wet the bed in Houston. 

When you go out the Midwest joint there's only Virginia and Iowa State! Yeah, I know the duns over at Butler are screamin' that I'm dissin' them but you ain't sneakin' up on anybody anymore bruh! Boyz can see you gettin' out of the car down the street at night with sun glasses on with glaucoma. 

In the South it's Kansas and Villanova! Well...it's Kansas bruh because Jay Wright knows how to rock a mean suit but that dun is gonna wet the bed like they always do. So stop tellin' me about Nova. This ain't 1985 playboy! 

Now the West joint has essentially three teams on paper but in reality they've got one half of a team and that's Duke simply because of Coach K. He's the best coach standin' so that always gives them a shot but his team isn't a typical good Duke team. But stop hollerin' about Oklahoma because they'll get the bubble guts on you in a minute and have diarrhea. And Oregon is Oregon bruh! They look good in their uniforms but they'll choke to death when the pressure mounts. 

So again, what did the duns in the East region do to the committee? If you're gonna pay attention to anything watch the East because it's gonna be an all out WAR! Stop me when I start lyin'!

How March Madness is about to get some boyz fired today! "Breed"

"They let you go too huh? I tried to tell you bruh!"

Josefina Vazquez Mota, the Mexican businesswoman, once said, "There are two ways of lying. One, not telling the truth and the other, making up statistics." James Faust, the religious leader, gave it to us like this, "Honesty is more than not lying. It is truth telling, truth speaking, truth living, and truth loving." John Ruskin, the English art critic, knocked a boyz Kangol off at the house party when he spit, "The essence of lying is in deception, not in words." 

Well playas...today the NCAA Tournament officially starts! Yeah I know that they played the dull First Four in Dayton the other night but who and their baby's momma watched that foolishness? Let me give you the O.G. talk before boyz get to lyin' and get fired today. 

In 1990 MC Breed & DFC released the hot joint "Ain't No Future In Yo' Frontin'" off of their debut album that would later be released in 1991. Breed is known as the first commercially successful rapper to come out of the Midwest (Flint, Mi.). So I've always had love for him. Naw playboy, it wasn’t Bone Thugs- n-Harmony from Cleveland. It was my man Breed! Way back then he was tellin' boyz not to get fired for bein' stupid today and tomorrow.

I know many of you boyz have gotten up with the intent to blow off work today because of the start of the NCAA Tournament. These next two days, in my opinion, are the most excitin' joints in sports. The games tip off at noon and go on until midnight. It's a sports fans dream. The only problem is that boyz will be stupid enough to call in sick/skip and front like they're workin' these next two days. C'mon bruh!

Let's keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! I know duns that will just straight up play hooky and post up in a sports bar all day when they should be in the field or at the job. Oh yeah, they’ll be serious about fakin' it today. Then you've got the idiot that goes to work and tries to look at the games on his computer after the company has sent out the policy last week statin' that you would be in violation if you did. But you know some rebel has figured out a way to do it anyway.

Hey bruh, let me put it where the goats can get it! The economy is way too bad for you to go home this evenin' and tell your wife that you got fired for tryin' to watch the game! "What!!!!?" Yeah bruh, that's her screamin' at the top of her lungs goin' at you hard! It's just not worth you showin' up at my house lookin' for a place to crash 'til you get on your feet because my wife's gonna answer the door playboy and she ain't no joke!!

As big a sports fan as I am, I simply won't take the chance. I'm way too responsible to let a simple basketball game get in the way of me makin' money. So in the past I've just taken the next two afternoons off by usin' vacation time! I wouldn't lie and say I was workin' when YOU KNOW I wasn't! But know as I'm waitin' for clients I've moved into the 21st century and I've got the CBS Live app on my phone!!! I can watch the game while I'm waitin' in a boyz lobby. And 90% of my time is spent waitin'!!! I've just gotta be "ON" when I get in front of a boy! I'm not missin' this bread out here and I'm not missin' the games either. Technology is a beast and I'm ridin' with him. 

Hey bruh, I don't need any help watchin' the games! So don't look for me by comin' through and gettin' me caught up in your foolishness. I won't be at the crib, I'll be on the move. That's why they call them mobile phones playa. There's bread to be made today and if you don't want it I'll take it. I know you told your wife that you were at work or told your boss that you were bein' productive. Either way, I'm not testifyin' on behalf for your foolishness! My name is Bennett and I ain't in it!

Everything is legit and I'm not hidin' from my boss and most importantly, my wife! MC Breed broke that joint down over 26 years ago and boyz still haven't figured it out. Hey when they start lettin' people go today the HR department will be givin' out that single in exit interviews to bump all the way to the crib! “To the beat ch’all!...” That was the joint!
