The mother of Cincinatti Bengals player Eli Apple has a strong point here....

Hoodrats shit! Fucking up your sons bread! :smh: Im starting to believe social media isn't that bad but that people are just fucking dumb.
ALLLLLLLLLL (yeah I'm bout to say it) niggas need to do is listen to black folks when we say STOP SPENDING MONEY WITH EM IF YOURE THAT MAD! My people just..:smh::smh::smh: Attention whoring to look smart when you look and sound weak and desperate. They're just going to blackball your son you dumb...:smh:

:lol:I been stopped feeling sorry for us, but i could give a fuck his this dude, Durant or any other lame loses millions of his or his ghetto ass mommas tweets! We love losing. I swear we do.
 
So…why is she goofy or a hood rat? @comment101 @bgbtylvr I understand the points y’all are making but it also makes me wonder about the true costs of silence. Also, this makes me wonder if we as a people are more comfortable speaking out about racist systems in other industries than we are in sports?
Refined, intelligent, classy women don’t tweet to stir up shit, they just make moves. They don’t beg for acceptance or attention. She wants her shine through a tweet from fame gotten from her sons accomplishments—which, she could ruin by not shutting the fuck up. Now you can be a hoe and still hold to code, but graceful women don’t do this shit. Only fools who’ve never made moves in affluent and powerful circles open their mouths to say anything. Act on jt.


Silence is most powerful through absence. Any (And I mean ANY) black person bitching about the NFL but STILL goes to games, has super bowl parties, buys or wears jerseys is a hypocrite. Remember when NWA wore nothing but Raiders gears and rapped about Old English beers? Even as a teen I saw the ignorance in it. BEFORE I GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL I KNEW! Then Cube said “stop giving juice to the raiders”. The NFL is essentially the Louis and Prada niggas rap and brag about but don’t get paid to do it. Meanwhile those brands would never have them or us in their homes or country clubs. So why enrich them over ourselves? Because we are sheep. Plain and simple. Name a country music Star who sings about a truck or beer that isnt a sponsor? You might find 1. Fuck the NFL. Fuck spending money with them. A tweet is bullshit and senseless if you keep making them rich. How does a tweet do ANYTHING to 32 millionaires? Not showing up does. But it’s us, so…
 
The NFL is like the movie industry. It is rare for a person to come out of college and start working on a summer blockbuster movie. You have to know the industry, the people and do a lot of shyt for free. And then it is who you know. Can she name a position in the front office? These motherfcuker make up positions for each other!

I ain't mad at her for the tweet, I think it is ill advised since she doesn't know the industry. I wish there was a Al Haymon type owner in major sports, but that shyt is like a boys club. You have to come in with money and power in hand before you even start to develop a team.

Not going to lie, my first thought from your initial response was wondering about how much the tweet triggered you:lol: I appreciate your reply. I feel the same about a lot of what you wrote. I’m not big on Twitter activism but I do respect and have appreciated how it has been a tool to allow information to be accessed and spread.

I hope their are entities that see the mom’s posting and connect with her so that moves can be made in the background.

What entity wants to tie itself to racism? Just hire a qualified black coach. That simple. They won’t so that means “fuck yo couch” to all us.

Way to harsh my man. Are you angry at her because the NFL might retaliate against her son for her daring the NFL to prove it's not white at the top, white in the middle and black and brown at the bottom of it's corporate structure? Just keep quiet? Massa's money makes up for all the discrimination and abuse? Fuck personal and racial pride? Seriously??? :hmm:

:lol: I never said that dumb shit. :roflmao::roflmao2:
 
Oh you did, without saying it... :rolleyes:
Nah, without comprehending it. My point is clear, if you still spend money with your oppressor, how much longer is he your oppressor? Fuck a tweet and rally, we are so weak as a race that we can’t even keep from making our so-called oppressors rich. They know it, but ninjas act like they don’t. Sad. It ain’t hard.

There’s plenty of opportunity with the head coaching staff and lead ownership staff for representation.

I’ve been reading the book White Fragility and the author said exactly what you mentioned, that white people’s fear isn’t being racist, it is being labeled racist.

You don't need any of that, what we need to do is start our own. It ain't segregation, it is capitalism at it's best. The talent is all black, so the money should be all black. Shit, the NFL had to grown, shit, start your own league and let it grow. Hell, we can do like the Greenbay Packers, start a league with all community owned teams and give the players part ownership and I bet you will pull the best talent from the NFL and others sports leagues. We are not thinking. Or, we are to scared to be successful. Because we have the talent and the money.

I agree we should not spend our money where we are not respected, but sometimes more is needed. We have to rock the boat when necessary and I think that is all she was doing in calling out the NFL.

I'm reminded of the following from the film The Departed and although I hate it was uttered by a racist played by Jack Nicholson it is true imo:

"Years ago we had the church. That was only a way of saying - we had each other. The Knights of Columbus were real head-breakers; true guineas. They took over their piece of the city. Twenty years after an Irishman couldn't get a fucking job, we had the presidency. May he rest in peace. That's what the nigg*rs don't realize. If I got one thing against the black chappies, it's this - no one gives it to you. You have to take it."

She has a point, but this isn't going to move anything. Now if all the Black players held out in solidarity, now that's a difference maker.

If her son and his teammates won't sit out, to stand up, it's best to shut up on social media.

You have to realize who you're talking about here. We will boycott Gucci one year and the next Jim Jones will post a video talking about how service is terrible! Your model would have worked in the 70's on back. Where we took care of each other, but folks want that money NOW! "Fcuk that investing shyt" is what you'll get. Or "I can't see my money!"

I said in another post meditating on Black Wall Street. Something like that won't get done in our lifetimes. Too many Tariq's and Umar's trying to take advantage of the people wanting to build

WTF.. I actually know folks working in both the NBA & NFL and all of them came straight out of college & applied for jobs either with the leagues or teams, besides maybe an internship while in college none of them did any free shit.

Congrats... you know folks! And they're high level front office positions! So now the point she is making it moot cause of the people you know in the high level front office. Cause I HIGHLY doubt she is referring to any and all positions in the front office. You can pad brown faces REAL quick when you start throwing ALL positions under "front office" i.e. support positions.

So outside of an internship...none of them did any free shyt?!?!? Internships and apprenticeships is what I was referring to. If you followed my train of thought I went from people in/graduating college to going into the workforce.
