How many gifted, privileged, entitled, money making Negro athletes must learn before they get burned? We are in a social media age where, like it or not, if you have a smidge of clout or popularity as an athlete, entertainer, or a social media influencer, you’re going to be a target of straggs, gold-diggers, and tempting female social climbers who are just waiting to sink their narcissistic teeth into your wealth, brand, and become ultimately the reason you are who you are, even though while you was becoming YOU, they had nothing to do with it. We’ve seen countless black athletes whether basketball or football, who as a jock may have had their pickings of cheerleaders or bad chicks in high school and college. However, when there’s money on the table to get drafted to the next level as a professional, these guys switch up and target exclusive ‘baddies’ who would ordinarily wouldn’t give them a second look. Just to be clear, I’m not mad at the women because they are hypergamous by nature, so while they are in their prime, they will choose the best man like Taye Diggs and move accordingly. But we’re in the age of an overly saturated social media environment where people are literally tattooed to their I-Phones and Androids, You Tube has replaced cable television, and information – whether fact checked or not – is in abundance. There is literally no excuse for a Negro athlete, entertainer, and influencer, to not be put on game about how these women roll and what they really think of you. Did you forget about Brittany Renner? Did she not have a meeting with a Deion Sanders led football team about how it is out here? Did you not see what happened to Zion “Feed me Seymour” Williamson with a porn star named Moriah Mills? How she was literally extorting this young man for hundreds of thousands of dollars and blasted their exploits for the world to see on social media? Let’s just be honest young brothers. Y’all are being groomed by these predatory women because most of them are older than you and you think because you have a nice contract you think you are in control. Even Lee Corso will tell you, “Not so fast my friend!” You are being drawn into her ‘Charlotte’s Web’ and you’re Wilbur and she has no problem leading you to the slaughter as long as she becomes bigger and more enriched off of you.

Heisman hopeful Travis Hunter was recently in the headlines via social media after his Colorado Buffaloes defeated the Oklahoma State Cowboys by the score of 52 to 0. Hunter, who played exceptionally well by scoring 3 touchdowns on 10 receptions for 116 yards (offensively) and 1 interception on defense, did everything in his power to cement his place as the finalist for the coveted Heisman award. Unfortunately, despite his spectacular play on the field that afternoon, it was the end of the game footage that has caused a stir for the projected first round NFL star. In the moment of jubilation and celebration, Hunter was looking to share it with his decked out, mink hat and coat sporting girlfriend, (I refuse to say her name), who looked dismissive and annoyed on Hunter’s final regular season game as a Colorado Buffalo. Although he seemed to be worried, he nonetheless, managed to keep his composure as the media confronted him about his performance along with his team overall. For the record, I do not know Travis Hunter nor his fiancé (fill in the blank) so I’m only speaking from other young promising athletes I’ve seen go from being sprung to simp-tastic over a female who would probably friend zone you if you wasn’t a star athlete. Only to look up one day when she uses YOU Negro to create not only a matrix-minded, social media/reality series lifestyle off of your clout and hard work, while draining your resources, refusing to become a wife (not just be married), and wants to be the star of the relationship just because she’s ‘pretty.’ Sorry but I detect Ayesha Curry vibes based off some videos I’ve seen. Hopefully I’m wrong, seriously.

Young promising Negro athletes if you want a man to study after who made millions of dollars playing pro sports at the highest level, please, look no further than former New York Yankee shortstop, Derek Jeter. A multiple World Series champion and Hall of Famer, Jeter’s primary focus was his career and everything else – including women- was secondary. Known as an eligible bachelor in these streets throughout his playing days, he never let a warm piece of cooch deter him and his goals as a professional, and trust me he had numerous suitors. The five-time World Series champion did eventually get married after his playing days to former model Hannah Davis, (with whom he has four children with) in 2016, and has never had to deal with the penalties of beta-male, simp-tastic , failures and the witchcraft of women who believe they are the prize and wants to usurp your position and hard work which put you in the position as ‘That Dude’ in the first place. Hunter, just like many others like him, no longer have any excuse to avoid the warning signs because unfortunately we’re in the age of ‘Cult of Personality’ and clout, and the more status and fame you obtain, the more people (including me) are in your business. Not because I want to because I’ve seen many top-tier athlete’s in my four decades squander their promising careers and fortune away due to bad investments, frivolous spending on Mamma and them, litters of children in a city near you, and silly women who will eventually become the next Real House Wife of whatever on Bravo t.v. I have hope for Travis, I really do. However, just like the title of this blog, there’s a reason why I don’t feel sorry for players like him because I’ve seen many Hunter’s come and go. As much as I love women – black women in particular- they can become the biggest distraction for young men because they can often interfere with a young man’s overall purpose. Fortunately, Hunter has not only a coach but a surrogate Father, Deion Sanders, who has not only has lived the life Travis is about to embark, but has learned about the ups and downs with dealing with a woman who wants to be in the spotlight just as much as you. There’s a reason why he ran like he was still an Atlanta Falcon, lol.

You are the PRIZE BLACK MAN, REMEMBER THAT!
