Young and old black and white Merican and Foreign to destroy this guy. No way he should get away with talking about DW and his mom like this.

I woulda gotten around to the insults...

...but my eyes glazed of boredom before I ever got there.
The dude is a pretty obvious whack job. The only thing missing from that broadcast was a hyperlink to his manifesto...and I don't think I need to go giving him ideas. Whatever, you get the idea him and THEHEBREW from Mainboard legend would have a lot of talk about.
The problem with the Internetz is any whack job with a webcam and some framing and graphics software can go make themselves a broadcast. And Oh, My, do they ever...but that doesn't compel us to listen to them.

Hmmm. I never pictured Manafold as a black guy. But seriously, this guy is a joke. Like he is fit to give financial advice. His back story shows him for the fool he is.

It's commendable that you're stepping up in defense of DW as a fan, but I think you're missing the point of the commentary. The man is giving you insight on perspective from his side of what he's seen. Hard truths are just that...hard. No matter race, religion, sexual orientation,yadda-yadda...facts are facts brother. We can't always look for stuff to be offended by, that's 90% of what's wrong with our society now. Coming from a man here that has to look in the mirror daily & has had to take many a long, hard look at himself, the truth will set you free.

I think it's pretty #### ignorant to stereotype based on the past failure of athletes. And from his side of what he has seen? This dude is doing a podcast from his living room, Deshaun had more money a week after college than this clown had in his whole life. This dude doesn't know ####, he's piggybacking off of the stories that have been done so many times about rich black athletes who end up broke. It's pretty ####### ignorant and I've seen it talked about on tigernet a few times. He bought his mom a car, he's gonna buy her a lot more. And he's going to make a lot more money. You might have to look in the mirror and be honest with yourself to set you free, and Deshaun can do the same and know that he is going to be a multi millionaire for the rest of his life, that's his truth

I see your point too brother but just don't miss what he's saying. And again, don't just look for the need to be offended. In this case DW just happens to be an example he's using. He discusses culture & uses an athlete as an example. Keep looking bro, and I hope you can see the bigger picture here.

Yeah. Guess you're missing it too. Stop being so sensitive. It's really not as offensive as it's being made out.

I'm not looking to get offended, I just think it gets old hearing journalists and fans say the same thing over and over when an athlete spends some money that they earned. DW isn't just making football money, he is raking it in left and right. Endorsements, football, appearances, he's earned his money. There's no reason to bring it up, this dude doesn't even know Deshaun or have any idea how much he is making. To me it's just an unnecesssary topic, there's no reason to make any suggestion of it. Just hope that he is smart and knows what to do to sustain this wealth for his entire life. It's just ignorant in my opinion, when you have no knowledge of how much he is making it's hard to make suggestions that he is blowing out and "hoping he doesn't go down the path of other athletes" after one purchase for his mom

I see your point of view too. I guess I'm just looking at it deeper than just knocking how somebody is spending their money. He's an African-American man speaking on a segment African-American culture. If Clowney had been used as the example in this, I'm not sure the reaction on Tnet would be quite the same as this. We're all entitled to our opinion, but I just don't see this as offensive as it's being made out.

controversial and inflaming dialog

controversial and inflaming dialog is the current method of getting mondo attention on the interwebs. Always best to ignore them as you can't 'destroy' them by giving them exactly what they want, attention!

of BS deserves what they get. He's a hypocritical ###### bag who trashes single black women for having babies but has a few illegitimate babies of his own, and the louse has served jail time for not supporting them although he claims to be extremely wealthy. He is pond scum.

This guy is disgusting! He doesn't know much about Watson. He didn't mention that he graduated in 3 years and is a Christian. His mom is a fine woman who apparently did well raising her kids. I don't understand how someone can be so critical and mean.
