WHAT'S UP WITH ATHLETES?

[WAHOONBOX]

I SWEAR....UNC FOOTBALL PLAYERS...I MEAN EX UNC FOOTBALL PLAYERS ACCEPTING DIAMOND EARRINGS OF ALL THINGS...A GROWN MAN WEARING DIAMOND EARINGS...I CAN'T HELP BUT LAUGH MY ASS OFF HERE AS I CAN PICTURE MY MOTHER PUTTING HER EARRINGS ON AS I TYPE.

AND A COLLEGIATE ATHLETE ACCEPTING A BLACK DIAMOND WATCH WHIOLE ON AN ACTIVE ROSTER FROM A DOUCHE BAG AGENT....NOW WHO IN HELL NEEDS A WATCH IN TODAY'S WORLD OF THE CELL PHONE? WHO? THE WORLD IS ALWAYS ON A CELL PHONE SO THE TIME OF DAY IS JUST A CLICK AWAY


BUT HOW STUPID CAN ONE BE? TO THROW AWAY THE REMAINDER OF A COLLEGE FOOTBALL CAREER FOR A MEASLEY PAIR OF STUPID LADIES DIAMOND EARRINGS....


AND NOW I SIT ON MY COUCH WATCHING TEXAS PLAY THE YANKEES AND I CAN'T HELP BUT NOTICE ALL THESE ROPE NECKLACES BASEBALL PLAYERS ARE WEARING....FOR INSTANCE, THE STARTING PITCHER FOR TEXAS-THIS WILSON DUDE....I SWEAR WILSON HAS ON AT LEAST FOUR NECKLACES.....ONE LOOKS LIKE AN AUSTRALIAN BRAISED RED ROPE THAT COULD BE USED AS A BOW LINE FOR A 600FT TANKER.

AND WHAT'S UP WITH ALL THE GOLD NECKLACES FLINGING AROUND AS THEY PLAY BALL?....HUHHHH? WHAT THE HELL HAS HAPPENED TO JUST SIMPLY PLAYING BALL WITHOUT DRESSING UP? THEN COMES THE EXTRA LONG BAGGY PANTS THAT THEY NOW WALK ON THE CUFFS....NEXT YEAR I GUESS THEY WILL REQUIRE BALL PLAYERS TO HAVE THEY UNDERWEAR STICKING OUT OF THEIR PANTS AND UP TO THEIR CHEST...


WHAT'S NEXT? LIPSTICK? THEY TRIED PANTY HOSE A FEW YEARS AGO BUT THAT PHASED OUT...."HEY COACH, TIME OUT....I NEED TO APPLY A ROSE FOUNDATION TO MY CHEEKS"


AND TEXTING OR SEXTING AS IT IS CALLED....ARE PROFESSIONAL BALLPLAYERS SIMPLY THAT STUPID? I THIN' SO....THE SUMVICHES HAVE GOT IT MADE IN THE SHADE ....SO WHY CAN'T THEY ACT PROFESSIONAL? FAVRE, BEN, THE DOG FIGHTER...100'S OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS BETWEEN THE THREE AND THEY ACT LIKE COMPLETE IDIOTS.

when ya got it, flaunt it.... I guess.... what they lack is common sense....

If you were a hiring manager, what company would want you to hire someone with their pants hanging below their butt? Just answer me that please. How many jobs can you do with one hand holding your pants from falling to your knees?

How many jobs can you do with one hand holding your pants from falling to your knees?

Isn't that known as plumbers crack?

Seriously though BOX, as a Tar Heel that selfishness over some bling is downright embarrASSing. I'm glad they are gone...get rid of anyone involved in any of the garbage.

As to the jewelry on the baseball game last nite, imagine Reggie Fountain out there with some of his bling on! I also remember a couple of old Fl captns that sported some nice marlin chains! Depending on the generations, maybe baseball is just catching up!

GOLD? WHAT GOLD?

All I see is RED! This poor rookie got covered up working on his third fish and is doing a fine job making a mess of the pit working the GOLD!

Might add that he is doing his job without all the BLING!

I think REAL men, manly men... in my humble opinion, the less jewelry, the better! A man should not need to wear jewelry to demonstrate how much he owns. I think it's tacky. Plus, the "diamond" earrings look like cubic zirconias. Pure clowns I think. Nothing like a clean cut man, plain and simple with the natural smell and the touch of the sun on their skin... aaahhhh
