Why I hate the show Basketball Wives and the likes

“I'm sittin here watching this show called 'Basketball Wives' and I want to throw up. Bunch of gold digging hoochie hoes in Miami. I'm so fucking disappointed in women of color. Don't do shit but spend money and complain about not getting enough carats. Kill yourself. Do the world a favor.”



-          My Gmail Buzz while watching the show



I will first start this off by saying that I do not know these women (I use that term loosely) and I don’t know what they have gone through personally with their husbands, but I sure as hell know some hoochie whore bags like them.



I have only watched one episode and almost defecated on myself like that Exorcist chick from the materialism, immaturity, and more all around catty-ness than a box of 7 feral cats with one mouse in said box.



My most hated chick from the episode, whose name escapes me, made me dislike her whole being in a span on three sentences.  Here’s the scenario:

Girl is looking for a dress for her “I’m getting divorced” party and the conversation of finding some arm candy comes up.  This is fine.  Then the topic of her next husband comes up and this wrinkly face ragamuffin has the audacity to say (paraphrasing) “My last husband got me a 12 carat ring and to be in the running to be my next husband you have to be getting me 15 carats or better.” (paraphrasing)  Are you f*cking kidding me?!?



Here’s my issues with this statement (and her life in general):



  1. She doesn’t work
Yeah I said it. Chick is not working.  There are no kids to take care of.  So what do you do all day?  Sit around and talk about how hard your life is with an athlete being gone most of the year on the road.  In my opinion, there’s nothing more appealing than a woman that isn’t in your face for their every want and need.  You want it, go buy it with your money.  Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying I don’t want to pamper my lady.  Like Ne-Yo, Jaime, and Fabolous said Knowing that she can do for herself / makes me want to give her my wealth. Now I don’t know about ALL my wealth but some of it she can have.



  1. You feel the world is supposed to presented to you because you have two XX chromosomes
I honestly don’t think these women could last thirty days doing what someone not in that lifestyle does.  I think they should do a ‘life-swap’ so they will be quiet.



  1. You’re not that cute
Self – explanatory.





Needless to say, I (probably) won’t be watching this show anymore.  And I say probably because I know that someone I know will watch it and will give me the low down which will ultimately force me to watch the show and get all upset again.  It’s a vicious cycle. 


What do you all think??

Flight Updates

So the last update from your captains came more than a year ago.  Calm down. The flight is still in the air and the stewardesses have supplied you with enough peanuts to sustain your life.  All we can say is, “Our bad, collectively.”  Life in the sky got in the way for a while.  But the return is near.  We got a new layout coming soon and posts from each of us on a semi-daily basis.  This is just an update so get ready.

 

Look Up and Look Out!

 

Captain B.
