The baby... ?


But then... who am I?

Her getting banned from the olympics this year was the best thing that ever happened for her short term. If she was still running then she HAD to win in order to be famous, other wise she would have been thrown in the bushes.

Now she’s famous without even having to risk losing.

The only problem is this is short term. She’s gonna be forgotten pretty soon unless she figures out how to keep herself relevant.

 

[The G.O.D II]

Not from black people

Yes he did. And so did Rodman.

 

[Wiseborn]

Its crazy how this chick has become a celebrity

She knows how to market herself she's using the Usain Bolt school of marketing.

The difference is Usain never shytted on his opponents

 

[Koba St]

She wasn’t banned breh lol, she’ll be back. Black people riding for her so she’s connected

Yeah but it’s still potential millions lost. Some advertisers might possibly stay away forever after her link with drugs.

 

[KidJSoul]

Yeah I can see it

The only thing I can say is that some are criticizing her for his post-comments like "Olympics won't be the same without her" which spits in the face of other black Olympians.

Still waiting for the clip of Mr Mackie trying to holla OP

You and her are C00ns for being ignorant. You can't compare AI to her. She fukked up before every making it. Iverson played and survived the game for 16 years.



We're for Black Excellence!

Iverson himself will tell you that he fukked up numerous times in his younger years

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

[Max.]

[Paper Boi]

sha'carrie strikes me as someone who prefers the box

 

[Ziggiy]

Iverson probably would have gotten more hate if he came up in the social media age.


I whole heartedly agree that all the bullshyt about her “look” is misguided respectability politics considering Dennis Rodman ran around in a dress with 15 different hair colorings per season and got a pass.


There is a time and place for the “pull up your pants, look respectable” talk and quite honestly Sports has NEVER been that place. If you are an athlete, the more flamboyant, free, and “colorful” you are adds to your brand and marketability. Whether that be in your speech and boisterousness (Ali, Mayweather) your style and swag (Iverson, Vick, Terrell Owens) or your personal appearance (Rodman, Richardson) it simply adds to your visibility.
