Shout out to Circuit City. I got the job for $8.90 as a Senior in HS (Min Wage was $6.55). Only for them to file for bankruptcy a week later. I was no longer needed. 😭
Damn did u get a check ?? I worked at a pizza spot my jr year with my best bro and they had me washing dishes all day 😂😂 I quit after that day but I still got a $54 check
Lol right… bro had A LOT to keep him busy, dude just had absolutely no guidance or impulse control. And it’s a reminder that men play a huge role in creating all the single mothers out there. Dude just running around blowing money, hanging in the hood for fun, and getting play jobs for fun like he doesn’t have 3 different kids to raise and be there for each day smh lol
@@donnymfdogg but only one person is RAISING the kid and more often than not, we know who that person… The creation of single mother is and it’s partially cause of dudes like Metta at this period in his life. Dude had all the time and money to be an amazing father but literally wasn’t concerned about it. He was getting part time jobs when he could have been clocking in and going to work to see his one of his 3 kids each day. Like punch that clock bro, let’s be real
i once met a dude at a bar in brooklyn who said he used to work at Circuit City in Portland, Oregon in the early 2000s. Dude claims he installed all the Jail Blazers sound systems in their cars and sold them weed. Streets never forget Circuit City.
@@DaggerMan11 they dont grow up millionaires though. Based on how some people grow up, where the feel comfortable and settled is totally opposite for others. Basically his life was a mess and was far from home. He needed something to calm himself and found it in the familiarity of some bad neighbourhoods and alcohol. They were not right choices but they were his coping mechanisms for a time.
Not the first and not the last, there’s dudes in the league playing coked up and blitzed off that gas still to this day and I’m pretty sure some of them have a shot or two at half or before the games especially the European players.
"I had a baby at 16..another one at 18... then another one at 20.. i was going through a lot .." Yeah, going through a lot of Hos My man, ever hear of birth control ???
Shouts out Circuit City. The day 50 Cent’s GRODT album came out I went to 5 different places and they were all sold out. Circuit City was the only ones who had it. RIP Circuit City.
man MWP is so charming and sharp. I always liked his game but his post game interviews made it seem like he was nut! But its probably cuz it was post game and he was hyped (or off the yak🤣)
He should of worked at Best Buy. They had the best discounts 5% above cost during that time frame(late 90s/Early 00s) But you don’t really get discounts on DVDs, CDs, Computers, cell phones cause they pretty much sell at cost. But shit erything else was hella cheap. Getting $2000 flat screens for like $400. Even car stereos; I use to buy shit and sell tf out of everything 😂
I had bought GTA San Andreas at Circuit City when it was released, they only had 2 copies left, copped the last copy. A dude behind got mad and I was gone 🏃🏾♂️➡️
We only heard rumors of Artest being crazy in Chicago. He would supposedly end up nude in the locker room at weird times. But he didnt go visibly insane until he left to Indiana.
Shout out to Circuit City bro they hooked me up fat with the sun began to set on another warm summer evening in the small town of Pleasantville, a young boy named Michael sat on his front porch, lost in thought. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves of the oak trees that lined the street, and the sweet smell of freshly cut grass filled the air. It was a time of innocence and wonder, a time when the world seemed full of endless possibilities. Michael had always felt a deep connection to the 1980s, despite having been born near the end of the decade. His parents often told him stories of their own childhoods during that time - of riding bikes until the streetlights came on, of playing baseball in the vacant lot down the block, of Saturday morning cartoons and Sunday family dinners. Growing up in the 1980s was a magical time, filled with a sense of freedom and adventure that seemed to be fading away with each passing year. It was a time before cell phones and social media, when kids spent their days outside, exploring the world around them and using their imaginations to create their own fun. One of Michael's fondest memories of growing up in the 1980s was the summer of 1984, when the local carnival came to town. The sound of the calliope playing in the distance, the smell of cotton candy and popcorn wafting through the air - it was a sensory experience like no other. Michael and his friends would spend hours exploring the midway, riding the carousel and the bumper cars, trying their luck at games of chance in hopes of winning a stuffed animal to take home as a prize. But it wasn't just the big events like the carnival that made growing up in the 1980s so special - it was the little things, too. Like riding his bike to the local convenience store to buy a pack of baseball cards and a bottle of soda, or spending long summer days at the public pool, swimming and splashing with friends until their skin turned pruney. The 1980s were a time of innocence and wonder, but they were also a time of change and uncertainty. The world was a different place back then - the Cold War loomed large, the threat of nuclear war was ever-present, and the specter of the AIDS epidemic cast a shadow over the decade. But despite these challenges, there was a sense of optimism and hope that permeated the culture of the time. Michael often thought about what it would have been like to have grown up in the 1980s - to have experienced firsthand the music, the fashion, the movies, the TV shows that defined the decade. He imagined himself cruising down the street in a flashy convertible, listening to his favorite song on the radio, with the wind in his hair and a smile on his face. As he sat on his front porch, lost in thought, Michael couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia for a time that he had never truly known. But he also felt a deep appreciation for the stories and memories that had been passed down to him by his parents - stories that had shaped his understanding of what it meant to grow up in the 1980s. And as the sun finally dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the neighborhood, Michael closed his eyes and let himself be transported back in time to a world of neon colors and big hair, of boomboxes and roller skates, of Rubik's cubes and Pac-Man. Growing up in the 1980s may have been before his time, but in his heart, Michael would always be a child of that magical decade - a time when anything seemed possible, and the future was filled with endless promise.
Rumor has it that Ron even bought out the whole floor of the project he was living in and housed his family back in Queensbridge when he first got drafted by Chicago, so this interview is not far fetched at all SMH LOL
No wonder that team couldn’t win. They had no motivation. They had Artest, Jamal Crawford, Tyson Chandler, and Brad Miller. All eventual All Stars with the exception of Crawford but he’s one of the best 6th men ever. And they still couldn’t make the playoffs. They had no will to win in Chicago.
