By now everybody, their Uncle LeRoy, and cousin Bubba has seen the ignorant tweets from Bills first round draft pick Josh Allen usin’ the N-word and talkin’ about “white is right.” Just before the draft someone leaked tweets from when he was in high school back in 2012 and 2013 two years before he enrolled at Wyoming.
The dun was completely outta control like most high school kids and I’m quite sure someone was in his ear about that foolishness way back then. However, he chose not to listen to them because in his mind, and in the minds of most teenagers, the old timers or grown folks don’t know what they’re talkin’ about.
Well playas…before Wednesday he was projected to be the No.1 overall pick in the NFL draft and once the tweets hit the streets he fell to No.7. That cost him some serious bread and now he’s got to walk into a locker room full of black men lookin’ at him sideways. Regardless of whether he was a kid or not boyz are goin’ to want some answers if they are goin’ to trust him to be their leader. That’s real talk playa.
Some cats will give him a pass but there will be others that want to know what he was thinkin’ and if he still feels the same way. Bills captain Lorenzo Alexander told the Bills official radio program, “What I’m gonna do is extend some grace and wait to get to know the kid and see how he develops. And that’s how you got to approach it.”
He goes on to say, “He’s gonna have to have a good answer. I’ve listened to a couple of interviews, and I think it’s gonna come from the heart and he’ll be fine. But he’s gonna maybe have to work a little bit harder to get respect from certain people in the locker room, but I don’t think it’s an issue, because that’s who he was and not who he is.”
That’s why Alexander is the captain of the team bruh but not everybody is a rational thinker. So ole boy is goin’ to have come in with his chin up and face the music.
Let’s keep it real or all the way 100, whichever comes 1st! My point here is this, stop puttin’ dumb stuff on social media. When adults pull your coat tail and tell you to stop doin’ it they aren’t just tryin’ to keep you from havin’ fun bruh. They’re tryin’ to keep you from ruinin’ your opportunities to get a darn job.
Let me put it where the goats can get it. If you plan on havin’ a career and not just a job. Whoever takes the time to interview you. They will pull up your social media at some point durin’ the process. If it’s full of foolishness, guess what? You’re not gettin’ the job.
And don’t think for one minute that it only applies to gettin’ a job either. If you’re tryin’ to get college scholarships they may pull it up too.
So when an old timer, O.G. or plain ole Mr. Barber from the chemistry department says, “Son erase that foolishness from your social media account.” You’ll at least think of Josh Allen. Stop me when I start lyin’!
Playas Thesaurus:
1) Dun: noun – the person in question, dude, guy, etc. It’s whoever I’m talkin’ about and its non-gender specific.
2) Put it where the goats can get it: verb phrase – to make it as elementary as possible. To put it at ground level so everyone can understand it.
3) Ole boy: noun – the person that I’m currently talkin’ about.
The G is excluded from the endings of all words because the G is near and dear to my heart because I’m from “The G” which is Gary, Indiana. So I only use the G when I’m talkin’ about “The G!”
