These ballers do need to learn how to manage and take responsibility for their actions. I don't think some of them really fully understand that they are role models even if they don't wanna be. And whoo hoo two bonus stars...YES! and FSU better not piss me off this year. Yeah I get where you are coming from T..(i cut down peoples names, hope ya don’t mind..lol).

The only reason I get nervous with athletes is because they are polarizing figures. When these things go down and you read the comments on sports blogs, people leave these comments like, "It's just another n&*#a with money." Those comments reallyu pluck my guitar but I feel you. On a side note, you get two bonus stars for being a Florida State football fan and quoting the Rick James skit. A female with sports knowledge is tops in my book. What can I say, I am just a man. Bahama,

And it doesn't affect me in anyway because MOST black folks don't have their kind of money and everyone is different.So I don't think you can group the bad energy given off by ballers with other rich black folks or even everybody else. All some of these ballers know how to be is hood, that's where they come from and that's who'll they'll be. I'm not saying the won't or can't change but it hard to let go of your past. But I won't feel bad for them but i can understand their struggle. But like a wise man once said..."they should of never given you n****'s money! :-) I’m like the biggest FSU (football fan) and i didn’t know about this..It’s actually kind of sad the story of Calvin Patterson.And while i think some ballers hell most ballers make entirely too much money, i wouldn’t say i feel bad for them but i can semi understand where they are coming from..But I do think they should learn how to better manage their life but hey it’s their life.
