FlashBack Fridays: Top 10 Reasons I Loved/Hated Sports in '07

Maan, have I had a love-hate relationship with sports this year. SOHH, in true blogging form, I have decided to hit y'all with the Top 7 Reasons I Loved Sports and the Top 7 Reasons I Hated Sports. Let's go in, like Weezy did in the booth this year. Chuuch!

Top 7 Reasons I Loved Sports
7. KG'sGIRL

I'd like to take her to the hole. What you want me to do? I'm sorry. I'm sorry! More on KG later.

6. FRESH FACES - ADRIAN PETERSON AND (OLD HEAD) GREG ODEN
A-Pete has been nothing short of the man in his rookie NFL season. Dude's a joy to watch and already got the mighty running back cosign from the arguable G.O.A.T. Emmitt Smith. I put my man Greg Oden in the same category because although recovering from injury now, when he joins the Blazing hot (pardon the pun) Blazers team, I think he's going to be a force. SOHH what if dude looks like he's Bill Russell's pops?

5. COLTS WIN SUPER BOWL
Maan, everyone's talking about the Patriots and New England did defeat Indy earlier this season, but where's the respect people!? Let's not forget that Peyton Manning and company started this year, copping Super Bowl rings. The Colts CAN beat the Patriots. I'm just saying...

4. CELTICS TRADE TO GET KG AND RAY ALLEN - BIG 3 IS BORN

Beside having a fly ass wifey on his arm, KG has good company on the court too and ya gotta love it. It's hard to get three unselfish players on the court together in the L; let alone three superstars. That's what KG, P2 and Jesus Shuttleworth are. I'm happy they found each other (pause). My Knicks still suck, though. Wamp, Wamp.

3. PATRIOTS UNDEFEATED STREAK
Maan, I could give two sh*ts about Boston, but 2007 was their year and what the Patriots are on the brink of accomplishing is just insane: 16-0. That would be crazy, but they gotta beat my Giants first. See, how I'm making this out to be a tougher challenge than it really is. But seriously, ESPN has dedicated their whole damn season of coverage to the Patriots this year. They're killin' 'em out there...the NFL needs first aid.

2. BARON DAVIS AND THE WARRIORS UPSET MAVERICKS
The Warriors were my favorite team to watch in the 2007 playoffs, dig me? I mean Baron Davis is the truth above the truth. It's a wet dream for a coach to have a punishing point guard that size. Watching him lead his Warriors over Dallas in that first round was dope. Then he left a dunk over AK-47 in the second round that's permanently implanted in my head.

B. Diddy got ready for this 2007-08 season by Superman'ing that ho. AHHHHHHHHHH YOUUUUUUUUUU! Watch.

1. FLOYD 'PRETTY BOY' MAYWEATHER

Why Floyd Mayweather? Are you f**king crazy, mate!? Mayweather is No. 1 on my list because he did what his good friend (I plead the) 'Fif couldn't: back up his talk, ya dig? 50 said all along that he would beat Kanye. Didn't happen. Floyd said all along that he would destroy (Ricky) Hatton and he did just that. Talk all you want, but back it up. Pretty Boy is the man!

There's the love. Hope you soaked it up because here comes the hate. Even if you're blind to the hate, I'm gonna make you see this.

Top 7 Reasons I Hated Sports

7. OJ STILL GETTING IN TROUBLE

You would think that if you already got away with a double homicide, you would take it easy and pretty much lock yo ass in the house. Nope, not OJ. He brought out the big guns that go clap, clap to get some of his merchandise. Wow. Maybe I shouldn't be talking about OJ like hip-hop reporters don't mention Suge because I do have trees near my crib and uhh....leave me alone OJ!

6. STEPHON MARBURY SKIPS OUT ON TEAM

I know it's been a tough year personally for Stephon Marbury (losing his father and all), but this dude doesn't want to be a Knick. His heart ain't in it any more. Dude skipped out on his team, he's a cancer in the locker room and to be brutally honest, his skills have diminished like crazy. Worst of all he's guaranteed $42 mil over the next two seasons. SOHH, the Knicks are stuck with dude.

5. DON IMUS CALLS RUTGERS' WOMEN BASKETBALL PLAYERS NAPPY-HEADED HOS
What the f**k was that old man thinking? Point blank. Here's a bunch of college GIRLS that were making history on the court and all the attention went to Don Imus? Worst of all dude got hired back in six months...and for more dough. That sh*t ain't cool.

4. MIKE VICK GETS 23 MONTHS IN PRISON FOR ROLE IN DOG FIGHTING; BECOMES FACE OF DOG FIGHTING

Mike Vick was absolutely wrong to have dog fighting going on in his crib. Point blank, period. No doubt about it. But the sh*t I don't like is how the media tried to make him the face of dog fighting when rednecks in the South have been doing it for centuries. Obviously they wanted to make an example out of him. I just don't think it's fair. Yea, Mike...flip 'em the bird. Hold your head...and stay away from the WOOF.

3. TIE: METS CHOKE - CAN'T MAKE PLAYOFFS AND NBA GAMBLING/PATRIOTS' CHEATING
Ayo, don't think I forgot about the Mets, son. All the Mets had to do was hold on to their comfy seven-game lead with 17 games left before the playoffs. Well, they couldn't do it. One of the biggest choke jobs in sports history. Maybe cause Jose Reyes couldn't breathe due to the lack of circulation in this tight-ass fruity jacket he's wearing. Not a good look, dog. You're a baseball player, not Ricky Martin.

The other part of No. 3 is the NBA gambling and Patriots' cheating scandals. Listen, I'm not trying to make this a race thing, but see how quickly those two cases got swept under the rug? The man is oh SOHH powerful. I'm just saying...

2. WWE SUPERSTAR CHRIS BENOIT KILLS SON, WIFE AND THEN HIMSELF
I know the WWE is sports ENTERTAINMENT, but still, this story had me hating sports and just thinking about life like, what in the world would possess a man to take the lives of his own seed and wife? Unbelievable. I honestly think the WWE let's a lot sh*t slide with steroids and other drug testing. This story was straight gruesome.

1. SEAN TAYLOR SHOT DEAD IN HOME ROBBERY ATTEMPT

Ever read about someone and feel like you knew him or her? Well, I honestly felt like I knew S. Taylor after reading about the kind of dude he was, according to his friends and fam. I can't believe how these knucklehead teenagers have the balls to even try to do something like that. Actually I can. Some of these young ignorant cats are straight reckless. In Taylor, we lose a great football player and a young dude, whose circle says was turning into a great man. Think about that.

I'll be back Monday. Peace.

Your Boy,

SOHH Ballsy
