This is crazy I'm being quoted and called a c00n because I refuse to blindly support some b*******. I see a lot of people are talking about black power and support ,stop being sheep Lavar Ball doesn't give a f*** about your black ass. $500 for a pair of sneakers ,who do you think his target audience is because people with money don't buy $500 sneakers only broke people do. I'm all for supporting my people but I call a spade a spade also I was told when someone shows you who they are you better believe them.
Whoever told you bold is an idiot straight up. That comment doesn't really make sense if you think about it.

I think it's bad business to tell me if I "can't afford ur $500 shoes then I'm not a big baller."

What if I wanted to buy $250 worth of t-shirts or hats just to support what ur doing?

Well now you insulted me, so I'm not giving you a dime.

But I'll let you Coli nikkas continue to defend Lavars business tactics. :yeshrug:

But two weeks ago you clearly said in your own words:


Man, there is nothing wrong with being wrong about something as we all make mistake and have projections that are off. It takes a man to admit his shortcomings, that's if he has a dikk and balls between his legs and considers his word to be worth something. It is clear as day that what you said was laughable two weeks ago is now a reality. So after rolling out and selling a huge number of shoes on the first day he's going to turn around and sign with Nike or Adidas before the draft now.
:drakedtales:
You got it though I'll cease engaging you. I can't believe a grown ass man can't stand behind his word even on an anonymous forum where no one can judge him. :scust:


What I said was laughable was the idea of him wearing these and giving up easy millions from a big company. If he does that, which he hasn't yet, I'll rep the guy who my point was directed at, @PS4 . It wasn't an open ended declaration to every poster on The Coli and as far as I can tell I didn't have one interaction with you before today so don't come in here on some after the fact shyt trying to fish for reps :mjlol:

Ask yourself brehs, why hasn't a single coli member copped any apparel? Surely Lavar's most vocal supporters believe in the brand enough to buy it. Could it be that:

A. The clothing doesn't appeal to their sense of style
B. They think the clothing is too expensive

So the same reason we're criticizing BBB is essentially the same reason why they're not buying.

Not ONE of these clowns on here caping for this trash can post an actual receipt of a purchase.

Which is understandable, most of these supposed "6 figure 6 cert" Coli posters clearly can't afford the $495 shoes anyway :picard:

Shaq don't have no fukking point. Only broke nikkas agree with Shaq. If you can't afford them and or don't want them cool don't buy them. shyt its nike that cost 170 parents can't buy guess they should lower their prices to 50 so everybody can cop them? FOH shyt don't work like that. That's why they have different offerings on dang near everything to satisfy those at different financial levels.
People can't wrap their head around not conforming to standards, it's really perplexing seeing this play out and people's reaction.

When he said the shoes are for ballers, a light went off in my head and I fully understand what that meant.

People just don't like the tone and the bravado. But essentially, he's selling this shoe and BRAND as a luxury/high class item. He wants highly visible people copping these things so when they show support... the audience of people watching is larger.

They do, where is that? Is it the $60 tshirt? The $100 hat? The $500-$1200 shoes? Oh it must be the sandals for 220?

:mjlol:

If you like what Lavar is doing then go ahead and support him. Don't make shyt up that's false.
You stupid ass nikka follow the fukking post I wrote then come back when you learn how to fukking read stupid. You too @Meadz you stupid ass dummy

Respectable to who? And how can you say a sneaker that you never touched or even seen in person isn't a quality product? And why does his product have to help the masses, he never said this was a charity line, this is business. How does Air Jordan, Louis Vuitton or $500 Raf Simons Adidas help the masses? How are they not preying on idiots and suckers? I find it amusing that the black man behind #BBB is held to standards you guys never held Phil Knight to.

Exactly.

A black man starts a business and they need to know his criminal record, his high school grades, and how many white chicks he's smashed before they buy from him.

A white man selling shyt and they don't give a single fukk about his background.

These nikkas are clowns.

Well the shyt wasn't for you in the first place. If you could afford it no problem you wouldn't think it was about you. Other brands do the same but just don't say it so I guess you like to know their shyt ain't for your pockets and they just don't say it? If that works for you ok but I'm not that sensitive over that stuff. Its not the same as racial stuff to me
