Cry Me A River

Everyone wants to be on top-apparently at any cost. Famed Olympic star Marion Jones finally gave up the ghost and pleaded guilty to two counts of steroid use which lead her to steal 5 gold Medals in the 2000 Olympic in Sydney Australia. I remember the hopla surrounding whether she was using drug enhancers and I remember being annoyed that media just wouldn’t give an African American their props for just being good. Joke was on me. Then to add insult to injury chick pulls some ghetto shit and pleads guilty to her involvement to a check cashing scheme. Say what? Where’s your momma at, girl? Ain’t you got any home training? Reports state that the once celebrated athlete earned millions in endorsement is now broke. Who’s surprised? Like my grandma Alice used to say: Fools and money will always part.

  1. well, I must say that the joke was on me too. I remember ranting about the media not giving props to a sistah for doing her thing. I’m so disappointed. Wow, I had not heard about the check cashing scheme :roll:

  2. I’m so over this chick. Can you imagine being the silver medalist in those 5 events? Are they going to give them the gold medals now? Seems fair.
