point guard: zoe saldana
narrowly beats out circa “mo money” stacey dash for the starting point guard spot off the strength of her performance on mtv’s punk’d four years ago (click me!). i need some feistiness and loyalty out of my floor general, and that episode proves she has more than enough heart and iwishan*ggawouldness to captain a team
shooting guard: (pre-whatever the hell she’s been publicly diagnosed with) maia campbell
put it this way: there’s a reason why “trippin”, a flick which is basically what would happen if tvone produced a soft p*rn afterschool special, is one of my favorite movies. well, that and the gratuitous nudity
small forward: (post monster’s ball, pre-baby) halle berry
makes the team even though i realize that putting halle berry on any top five list in 2009 is so cliche and unimaginative that even tyler perry would be like “damn. where the hell is the freakin nuance??” if he read this.
power forward: kenya moore
i’m convinced that her only purpose on earth is to show everybody how stupid atheists are because her presence is concrete proof that God exists¹
center: yaya dacosta
although i was tempted to put the vsb’s favorite cp-3, candace parker, on the roster because it might not be a bad thing to have at least one person who can actually play basketball on your basketball team, yaya prevails…even though i’m not even 100 percent certain she’s still alive
people of vsb.com, its your turn. imagine that you and every entertainer or politician or athlete or excessively articulate black blogger from pittsburgh or whoever you’ve ever been attracted to is all of a sudden available, and pick your dream team, your all-time pop culture starting five
remember, time doesn’t matter. if you want to pick a post-brown sugar mos def, a pre-penitentiary t.i., or a pre-penitent mary magdalene, go right ahead.
the only caveat is that you have to name people that someone other than you has actually heard of, regardless of how tempted you might be to include the banging-ass border’s barista you met last week.
the carpet is yours and sh*t
¹i know. i know. i know. this statement was gayer than the easter bunny. blame it on the g-20
—the champ
Hmmmm…. off top? I’d go with
1. Reggie Bush circa his USC days. – I saw him running at the Sand Dune with no shirt on and d*mn near lost my mind. smh.
2. Robin Thicke – so he could
putsing me to sleep.3. Will Smith while he was filming I Am Legend – I love muscles and sh*t.
4. Gerard Butler – circa the movie 300. I love muscles and sh*t.
5. Sanaa Lathan circa Something New – Yep, I had a girl crush on her in that movie. *shrugs*
… but I’m sure I’ll think of some more. lol
@Selah, Reggie Bush circa his USC days. – I saw him running at the Sand Dune with no shirt on and d*mn near lost my mind. smh.
girl yes…he was XXTRA fine then….
@shay_d_lady,
lol idk wut he looks like now, but that image of him then shall be burned in my brain.
i like this post
lol
Damn, Selah, I see you get around some ways…surprised we haven’t bumped into one another yet.
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
what you mean I get around? Cuz I like those dudes?? lol And ONE of these days there shall be an LA VSB thing (notice I said thing cuz who knows if it’ll be a bbq or not lol)
@Selah, nah, i was referring to locales that you named off….close to familiar stomping grounds.
Plenty decent functions coming up, sooooo….*trying not to hint too hard*
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
oh, the Sand Dune? Yea that thing is pretty popular. Haven’t been in a while, seeing as how it’s too.dang.hot. lol
functions?
@Selah,
“4. Gerard Butler – circa the movie 300. I love muscles and sh*t.”
Ya know, I actually noticed him during that silly movie, Dracula 2000. I thought he was HOT even though he was smaller. Mayeb it was because I was in some weird “vamps are hot” stage from watching Buffy way back when.
@Cheekie,
I never saw that dracula movie, but I just googled it. oooo wee! lol
p.s. vamps could get it, too. Blame Angel.
@Selah,
Yeah, I stanned for Angel during Buffy days. *swoon*
@Selah, LOL! love your list! EVERY GIRL NEEDS A DREAM TEAM! My book about this topic is coming out soon! Check it out!
http://erica-watson.blogspot.com/2009/06/dream-team-every-single-girl-needs-one.html
@Comedian Erica Watson,
LOL! I like that. And like I said over there, clearly I needa step my game up. smh.
@Comedian Erica Watson,
Yes. And I’m stealing Derrick Rose and adding him to my team. He looks like he doesnt talk a lot. I LIKES that!
@Me fail english?,
*snicker*
“i’m convinced that her only purpose on earth is to show everybody how stupid atheists are because her presence is concrete proof that God exists.”
@thechamp,
smh…. While I agree with the sentiment, you should have saved this line for another moment… proposal, engagement party, wedding day… It’s that good. But then, I’m sure you’ve got another three or six up your sleeve…
@thismayconcernyou, smh…. While I agree with the sentiment, you should have saved this line for another moment… proposal, engagement party, wedding day
LOL uhhhh no..that shyt is corny and sappy as hell
plus
Champ has probably used it at every social event he’s been to in the last year…
to no avail
LOL
@shay_d_lady,
If some man said that to you, you’d get *happy*… tell the truth. lol.
@thismayconcernyou,
nope..
but if he was like
my dream proposal would go like this
shyt baby gurl….
you know..you gotta ninja all f!cked up over here…I just be thinkin about ya and shyt all out on the block and shyt…
f!ck it shawty, lets do this…..
Im kidding….
kinda…..LMAO
@shay_d_lady, shyt baby gurl….
you know..you gotta ninja all f!cked up over here…I just be thinkin about ya and shyt all out on the block and shyt…
f!ck it shawty, lets do this…..
lmaooo, i love you shay, esp cause you aint lyin!
@shay_d_lady,
LOL I was bout to say, you KNOW you aren’t lying!
All that’s missing from that proposal is, “F*ck witcha boy.”
@8th Wonder
All that’s missing from that proposal is, “F*ck witcha boy.”
well you know thats how dude would have pulled me in the first place…LOL
@shay_d_lady,
*dead* Shay, u’ont disappoint. Methinks this proposal will rock even more if he went “Giggity Giggity” *pelvic thrust*
That makes EVERYTHING better
@thismayconcernyou,
lol, you obviously don’t know shay-d-lady. if some cat said some sh*t like that to her at the club she’d shank him and then riverdance on the corpse.
@The Champ,
“if some cat said some sh*t like that to her at the club she’d shank him and then riverdance on the corpse.”
Or at least she’d say she did – right after the midget-pimp back-handed her. All love Shay, all love, LOL.
@The Champ,
Nah, I know her well enough. My sarcasm just read like Hebrew. lol.
@RedBeanzNRice w/Poak Chops
Or at least she’d say she did – right after the midget-pimp back-handed her. All love Shay, all love, LOL.
not so sure thats love? but hey it is a bit outlandish so I can see why its hard for some to believe…LOL but that’s my life..at least my past life in general
oh, and it wasnt a back hand.. it was a choke out..LOL
@The Champ, LOL I dont know whether to be touched that you know me so well? or pissed off that you think I’m that uncouth….
I dont use a shank…
its a box cutter..
LMAO
just kidding
@shay_d,
i actually envision an eyebrow cutter being your club weapon of choice
@shay_d_lady,
I’m with thismayconcernyou. That’s a cool ass line.
@shay_d_lady,
I agree on the corniness of the line. I was thinking “BOoooOOOooo.”
@Me fail english?, its cuz ur from NY. Nothing works on NYers
@Peysonic Temple,
including soap
@thismayconcernyou,
While I agree with the sentiment, you should have saved this line for another moment… proposal, engagement party, wedding day… It’s that good.
i actually stole it from a deleted scene on the “i got the hook up” dvd, but thanks anyway
@The Champ,
“i actually stole it from a deleted scene on the “i got the hook up” dvd, but thanks anyway’
If this is true that line is officially tainted.
@Omar and The Champ, what would any ninja in I Got The Hook Up (character or actual actor) know about atheists?
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
because only God can judge them.
**this was much more clever in my head**
@The Champ,
What would they know, not
why would they know…
0-2 Champers. Long night?
@The Champ, “i actually stole it from a deleted scene on the “i got the hook up” dvd, but thanks anyway’
nuff said…
and men just so you know (as proven by this thread) you can not determine the effectiveness of a pick up line based on other men’s opinions….LOL
@thismayconcernyou, i’m with shay-d, that line is corny and suspect as hell. big womp.
@thismayconcernyou,
“smh…. While I agree with the sentiment, you should have saved this line for another moment… proposal, engagement party, wedding day…”
Hmm, good suggestion on the engagement/wedding tip. Ninjas take notes. Also, make sure your future wifey never read VSB. lol
‘Cuz that line WAS made of beautiful.
@thismayconcernyou,
I ain’t gon lie. iSwooned at that line a lil bit. There’s a lil corny in all of us. #ThugFail
ohhh
I dont know
can I have a starting team and a bench?
awww dayum….
now I cant think of anyone
I am going to say
Michael Jordan in 92 (winning, relevant, and pre jaundice)
Terrell Owens…Man that ninja body is off the CHAIN..I mean it be calling me in my sleep!!!
Marcus Allen in his hey day-them eyes man….them eyes
Will Smith…any time..yes even goofy flat top parents just dont understand will
LL Cool J- radio/im bad…..man I still remember feeling like “i need love was just for me”
honorable mention..AI at the height of his thuggedness…ohh he was so sexy…and so thug…..
you made sure your starting line up was anti colorstruck huh? not trying to go down that road again are we…. LMAO
@shay_d_lady,
TO’s body is ridick. I just need for him to stand there and NOT talk. Better yet, I’ma need for him to work out. shirtless. And not talk. lol
@Selah,
Exactly. I don’t want to hear any words.
Period. Just shut up and look good.
@shay_d_lady,
“Michael Jordan in 92 (winning, relevant, and pre jaundice)”
Argh. MJ grosses me out! If you saw the HOF speech (or read Jordan Rules or “When Nothing Else Matters”) I don’t know how chexing ol’ MJ is appealing. He looks like he’d be a super disrespectful lay…like he’d refuse to put out his cigar during the deed and then try to ash on your back or something. Plus he got a bad knee. No leverage. *shrugs*
@Sheffield Swats,
lmao@ ashing on your back.
I think MJ is an a*hole as well.
@Me fail english?, I have come to terms with his current a$$ holish state…but come on now
92-93 Jordan
errrybody was singing “sometimes I feel..that he is me.”..
ohh….
“i wanna be wanna be like mi-ike”
I LOVED Jordan then…
@Sheffield Swats,
Yeah. MJ just reads arse hole. The Hall of Fame speech was ridic. I say Chuck B would at least make the chex fun. But he’d prolly want you to get up and cook something after (but, then again, what man doesn’t?)
@Sheffield Swats,
…like he’d refuse to put out his cigar during the deed and then try to ash on your back or something…
LOL
@shay_d_lady,
you made sure your starting line up was anti colorstruck huh? not trying to go down that road again are we…. LMAO
lol, i’m just being honest and sh*t. and by “being honest” theres a chance i might mean “pandering”
@The Champ,
I was thinking the same thing. Way to play it safe.
1. Idris Elba
2. Jackie Long
3. Post-Brown Sugar Mos Def (lol!)
4. Common
5. and William Demps. omg.
Ps. Boris Kodjoe is the most obvious starter, so I didn’t put him on my list…although I def. had to mention his fine ass. lol…
@NayNay,
“Post-Brown Sugar Mos Def ” — Yep Yep! he was just too cute in that movie. Skinny, but cute. lol
@NayNay,
Yes @ fine ass Jackie Long!! Let me fan myself
@NayNay,
Will Demps is the most beautiful man. Period.
PG: Kerry Washington
SG: Jurnee Smollet
SF: Jill Marie Jones
PF: Scarlett Johansson
C: Garcelle Beauvais
To all the fellas who crash this post, fall backFALL BACK on Kerry. I called Kerry Washington about two minutes after I came out my mother’s womb.
@thismayconcernyou, so you got a lip and boob fetish?
Its always funny to see these lists.. men always have common themes…
like Champs list most of the girls are of slight build(excluding kenya) with exotic features..specifically the eyes..
so he likes a little “otherness” mixed in with his…..
but the women’s list are all over the place…..
@shay_d_lady,
i was about to say something about the prominent lips as well.
btw, there are other thicker women i could have named (ie bria myles, esther baxter, and pre boob job caramel) but they’re all relatively obscure video chicks, strippers, and p*rn stars.
i saved that list for my other blog, verysmartbrothas
whodontcareaboutgettingbannedfromworkplaces.com
@shay_d_lady,
The funny thing about my list is that Scarlett is probably the thickest one on it…
The “fetish” is more lips and eyes… Most of the women I listed have great sets of both…
@thismayconcernyou,
The “fetish” is more lips and eyes…
…and boobs.
@thismayconcernyou,
your PG and PF are on my current list of “stay-single-until-I’m-rich” picks. Yeah…
Yeah (**licks lips**)
Bond. BlkBond.
The Starting Line Up…
Starting at point guard, coming in at 6’2, Thierry “I play real football” Henry
Starting at shooting guard, coming in at 6’2, Idris “The British Knight” Elba
Starting at Small Forward, coming in at 6’3 Clifford “Method Man” Smith!!
Starting at power forward, coming in at 6’1, Denzel “KingKongAintGotNothingOnMe” Washington
and……………..
Starting at center(posthumously), coming in at a whopping 6 feet 16inches, Tupac “Thug Life” Shakur.–I had to put Pac in the starting 5. it’s crazy, but Pac was my first real celebrity crush…or at least he was the first celebrity I thought about when I first started pastorstating. I had every intention of allowing Pac to deflower me 3 ways once I got to college. I made it to college, Fall 2000…Pac didn’t make it to 2000. Damn you Suge!!!!
and if you’re reading this, Suge, I don’t really think you had anything to do with Pac’s death. Really. I love you, Suge.@insomN.I.A., Starting at center(posthumously), coming in at a whopping 6 feet 16inches, Tupac “Thug Life” Shakur.–I had to put Pac in the starting 5. it’s crazy, but Pac was my first real celebrity crush…or at least he was the first celebrity I thought about when I first started pastorstating.

I LUV 2 pac…girl….he died the fall of my freshman year.. I had the same plans you had..and then he died and had to settle for some lame a$$ dude with the new jordans…LOL
@insomN.I.A.,
I think you gave Pac an extra foot, lol
Bond.
@BlkBond,
lol, she did
@insomN.I.A.,
LMAO @ that last part. Pac still makes me kinda….
Damn you Suge!!!
Sorry, Suge. I play too much. Don’t hurt me.@insomN.I.A.,
WORD on Tupac. It wasn’t just the looks, it was THE VOICE (a good voice puts a nicca into the 10 range for moi). He had, arguably, the best rappin’ voice of all time. SEXAY!
Sug done (allegedly) kept us from some primetime ogling.
@insomN.I.A., I really didn’t expect to see Thierry Henry on someone’s list…good choice..No homo…just saying i can appreicate a good footballer…
This is MY list, dagnammit. No apologies. That being said, I’ve never been able to rock with the Boris Kodjoe’s of the world. Zzzzz. I need quirks. Thus….
5. Carmelo Anthony–That smile. Been plotting on him since he got legal. *Sigh*
4. Nelson Mandela–For one, I know Winnie wasn’t hitting that right. Secondly, he got principals and sh*t. Plus we’d have lots of stuff to talk about after, before and during.
3. Malice (of the Clipse)–So tormented. How many rappers can pull of this verse http://www.lyricstime.com/clipse-i-m-not-you-lyrics.html and a guest spot on Mary Mary’s remix to “The God In Me”?
2. Paul Newman, circa “Cat On A Hot Tin Roof” and “The Hustler”. Blue eyes & Oscar-calibar talent? Winner.
1. Jim Brown. Yes, I saw the Spike documentary. As any female fan of rap music would argue, “he wouldn’t do/say that to ME”. Plus, if you saw how he tore down Raquel Welch, well you know why he’s ranked this high.
@Sheffield Swats,
Nelson Mandela???? O____O
@Luvvie,
Ok, that face cracked me up.
And yeah…um…lustin’ after Nelson Mandela would make me feel some kinda way…
@Sheffield Swats,
Oooh, yeah Paul Newman was dreamy. Those eyes could pierce right through me.
@Cheekie,
Especially in Cool Hand Luke.
Yum.
@Sheffield Swats,
4. Nelson Mandela–For one, I know Winnie wasn’t hitting that right. Secondly, he got principals and sh*t. Plus we’d have lots of stuff to talk about after, before and during.
I have to give you props just for that paragraph!

i actually thought about adding her to the team, just for the volatile chemistry aspect. she’d either be rodman on the 98 bulls or artest on the 2004 pacers, no inbetween
@The Champ, Does that mean Lauryn Hill = JR Rider?

3. Lamar Odom

(side bar…I HATE the Kardashians! 3&4)

@overit,
Yes lawd.
My dream team would be:
1. Harvey from Celebrity Fit Club–yaaaaaaaaaassss. I love aggressive men. I just picture him cussing somebody out and then working that frustration out all up in my life. And then holding me whilst being refreshingly gentle and sweet….
2. 1990′s child star Bumper Robinson–google him. you might not know the name, but he famous, yall! I had the biggest crust on him all throughout the 1990′s, so it’s only right that he make the team.
3. Andre 3000–I just love him. Plus we could go shopping and get manicures together and he’d grease my scalp on Sundays.
4. Bruce Willis, circa now—I’m really not attracted to yt men…..but I could tape Bruce’s mouth shut and make it work.
5. a pre-Michelle President Obama–before Michelle because, well, I’m not triflin. But at the same time, I would be that tacky person to be sitting around right now telling my “Barry O from Harvard back in 1990″ stories and trying to shop my book around.
@charli skipp,
Harvey is on my list…. That man is HOTT!
@charli skipp,
bumper robinson= clarence “the so fine” from Amen

@shay_d_lady,
Dont forget Jackie Jackson in “The Jacksons: An American Dream”. He was a cutie.
@shay_d_lady,
Aw snap. That foine mofo made me mad his name was Bumper. Just like Pooch Hall. And both of them funny name niccas were on The Game. lmfao
@charli skipp,
3. Andre 3000–I just love him. Plus we could go shopping and get manicures together and he’d grease my scalp on Sundays.
I love, love, love him… So sexy in a unique way…

@V.E.G.,
WHAT?! Girl, we was >here< til you said Sir Charles.
Why, Ebony, WHy?
*Lopsided, ugly face cry*
@Me fail english?,
Barkley looks like a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. And his golf swing looks like he rides the short bus.
@Cheekie,
*dead* You did NOT just take it to his golf swing!
@Cheekie,
I, at this very, moment, have a basketball in my desk drawer with Charles Barkley’s face painted on it.
My love runs deep. I will fight you for talkin bout my man. :-p
@V.E.G.,
AHAHAHAHA! Your love runs deep, indeed. A b-ball face?! Hilarious.
Can’t hate ya for lovin’.
@V.E.G.,
I STILL dont understand ur love of Sir Charles.
@Luvvie,
He’s a big country farm boy who doesn’t give a sh!t and he has a beautiful smile. He’s strong and cocky.
I don’t understand why you don’t see the good in him.
@V.E.G.,
At Center: Dhani Jones always and forever
Why you gotsa steal my Point Guard!!! Wars have started over less than that…
@V.E.G.,
How could you do that to me?? I can’t make it through that much shirtless footage of Dhani!! I’m pretty sure I didn’t make it….just woke up in a disoriented puddle of drool and clicked ‘replay’ on my computer…*sigh!*
Um NO to Kenya Moore. I still to this day can’t understand how she won the pageant. She is really just not cute – AT ALL. I WISH Gabrielle Union would have been running against her in the finals – trust and believe Kenya would have NEVER won. I’m still not quite convinced Kenya isn’t a post-op transgendered man turned woman. Just sayin.
Ok, top 5 picks – (positions undetermined at the time of this post) Since it’s fantasy, I’m choosing both living and deceased – in fantasy everyone is alive.
1. Tupac Shakur – any day, all day and for any reason. (Besides that, I’m his widow.
)
2. L.L. Cool J, circa “I’m Bad”. Woo lawd that man was sexxAy! His lip-licking put chapstick to shame.
3. Michael Jordan – before retirement and BEFORE the Wizards, LOL. Not only was the man foine, he could ball his azz off! Aside from that, his wife (at the time) has my name. So it was written in the stars, lol.
4. Rakim. His style and finesse would translate to an easy win on the court.
5. And lastly, Sinbad. Because every court needs a court jester. He’d be the Harlem Globetrotter part of the game, and a definite distraction to the opposing team.
Honorable mention, but very close to making the cut: Morris Chestnut in his “Boys in the Hood”/”The Brothers” days.
@RedBeanzNRice w/Poak Chops, why do women like to “wet blanket” a man’s taste in women? Are we not allowed our subjective leanings?
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
No.
@charli skipp, and therein lies the difference between men and women. We stay out of y’all way when y’all start gushing about beefcake and heels and sh*t, we’re not interested in that. We put the noise canceling headphones on and leave you to your own devices. Ladies, however, just don’t feel right unless they attempt to ruin man fun.
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
you know what, I might have to agree with you lowkey. On my phone it doesn’t show me the original author of the comment until the end, and when I read that statement about Kenya i thought to myself “must be a woman that wrote this”
I was right. Damn. lol
@RedBeanzNRice w/Poak Chops,
LMAO @ the haterade u just made rain on Kenya. Some man somewhere is mad as H*ll right now.
@RedBeanzNRice w/Poak Chops,
I never got what dudes saw in Kenya Moore either. She has a nice body and aight face. Maybe Im just hating cuz I hated all the roles she played on TV..
Lisa Turtle>Whoever Kenya played on Martin
@Me fail english?,
“Lisa Turtle>Whoever Kenya played on Martin”
You Lie!!!
@Humble_One aka $5 Footlong,
lol
@Me fail english?,
saying kenya moore has a “nice” body is like saying raewkon has a weight problem
@RedBeanzNRice w/Poak Chops,
(I submitted this downthread, but meant to put it here)
I like Kenya Moore for two reasons:
Right after she won the Miss USA pageant, she was signing pictures in some convenience store and she told me she liked my jacket (I was 8. Yes, I’m that young.).
Also, it’s cliche, but her winning that pageant showed me at the time that ‘we’ (dark-skinned black women) could be considered beautiful. AND. She’s an Aquarius. Holla at us.
@RedBeanzNRice w/Poak Chops,
I, for one, find Ms. Kenya Moore extremely gorgeous. I mean her curves ALONE make her something special… Now throw in those sultry eyes and lovely smile, and we have a winner.
I can dig it.
@RedBeanzNRice w/Poak Chops,
I still to this day can’t understand how she won the pageant. She is really just not cute – AT ALL. I WISH Gabrielle Union would have been running against her in the finals – trust and believe Kenya would have NEVER won. I’m still not quite convinced Kenya isn’t a post-op transgendered man turned woman. Just sayin.
***redbeanz 10 years ago***
“i mean, they win and all, but the chicago bulls aren’t that good at all. so what if they’ve won 6 championships in 8 years, they’re just lucky they didnt hafta play the clippers in the finals”
@The Champ,
BWAHAHAHAHA
@RedBeanzNRice w/Poak Chops,
Sinbad?
That is so freaking random. That’s more random than VEG and the Chuckster. The equivalent would be me randomly adding Sherri Shepherd to my list. Crazy.
@Big Man,
Dayum. Why you gotta hate on my love for Chuck?
Yes, his placement on my list of certified hotties was random…but dang. Just dang.
@Big Man,
WTF?! I just saw Sinbad. This list just lost all credibility.
1. Michael Ely, anytime
2. Tupac

I know there’s more, and probably better, choices. I just can’t think right now, I’m too tired.
@SaneN85,
Mmmm. Michael Ealy. He was TOTally not my type physically (light skinned, light eyes? Boooo)….and then I met him person. He gives off that “real MAN” vibe and I could see why Halle was open. good gawd!
@Me fail english?,
If I had a type either, it would definitely not be typical “Michael Ealy”…. but there is just something about him that just makes you want to either have a very deep conversation with him or throw your panties at his face… or both. And I peeped it in the first barbershop…
@SaneN85, Michael Ely, anytime
girl… I love him.. he was actually on my list but I had to give his spot to AI.. who gives off that same vibe so I had to use length of crush time as my tie breaker…LOL
@SaneN85,
#4′s name is Mechad Brooks.
And lordhavemercysweetbabyjesusIwoulddothingstohimthataren’tevenlegal.
*faints just thinking about it*
@SaneN85,
I loves Michael Ealy, too. I was *DEAD*, though when this nurse said my baby nephew will grow up to look like him.
Um…O_O.
I’ont wanna think about that! SMDH

@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
*dying*
@MePhiMe,
welcome and sh*t. and, you have an all-star backcourt
I could have an NFL roster full of freaks…but since we’re doing the starting five thing…I’ma get all hockey like and add a goaltender!
Taral Hicks–was looking like wifey up in Bronx Tale.
Italia Blue–only need one of *those* girls on this list…so she makes the cut over Audrey Jaymes. She isn’t as trashy as Jasmine Cashmere or Stacie Lane either.
Amerie–her in her first album days….before she allegedly got work done.
Claudette Ortiz–yes, her from City High…before she allegedly had kids by both of the dudes in the group.
Tamron Hall–needed a TV newswoman in the mix…she’s national enough.
And at goaltender:
MC Lyte–dubious sexual orientation be damned, she does booty sweats right to this day.
So many could make the list though….but this list is the immediate “different from others” list that comes to mind.
I thought about adding on an all-2520 team for fun…but what’s the point? While I find plenty attractive, they’re not who I would step to in reality.
Jessica Alba’s ethnicity is too ambiguous to make the call on.
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
Da hell?
First of all, Amerie aint had no damn work done! She’s just in shape. You take that back!
Second…wtf is “booty sweats”?
Third, I think Alba is Mexican and some sorta white.
@Me fail english?, damn, you’re right. Just looked it up, her white side is Danish/French-Canadian.
It was dubious because I remember something mentioned about her being of Portuguese descent, which if she was full-blooded Portuguese would have made her 2520. But those features didn’t add up to white for me.
On Amerie: She was rumored to have had a nose job.
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
Yeah Mexicans always fool me. Maybe cuz that was like the one ethnicity on earth I didnt grow up around (we had Guatemalans, and no Mexicans. what gives?). I just found out Apollonia was Mexican like two weeks ago. I thought she was just light-skinned. haha
@Me fail english?, yeah, Mexicans are all the rest of the country knows.
I forget who that was that told that joke that NYC calls all Latinos Puerto Ricans, Miami calls them all Cubans, and L.A. calls them all Mexicans. Might have been Mencia, might have been a Black or white comic, I forget.
@ Stuff Ghetto People Like,
That was Menicia. Trust that’s all I know down here.
@Me fail english?, I’m still mad you’re not familiar with the greatest invention for *ss lovers everywhere. Booty sweats (and their cousin booty shorts) been on the scene since ’02. May or may not have stuff written right on the *ss (usually “Juicy”). Made females sexy on runs to the store.
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
booty sweats??? ain’t nobody heard of that but you. lol
@Selah, maybe I’m the only one who called them that. But this is the first time people didn’t know what I was referring to.
@Selah,
lol! Girl I thought I was the only one. Like “Is that what they call those?” That just sounds…ehh…funky.
@SGPL – That’s cuz they prolly all had some context clues. I ain’t know. I googled it and came up with some kind of drink. lol
@Me Fail English – it does sound funky. Like. Why is your booty sweating? And who wears something that emphasizes the sweating of the booty. lol
@Selah,
LOL. and ewww @ folks drinking booty sweat. You couldn’t pay me
@Me fail english?,
Alba is Cuban I believe…
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
Good call on MC Lyte, I forgot all about her.
@Omar,
me too, for a reason
@The Champ,

@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
blue’s one of the only p*rn chicks i would consider possibly maybe dating in real life. she seems like a sweetheart…and, well, nevermind.

Ya know what. The pic on Champ’s “Can’t Knock the Hustle” post was actually kinda cute. That one picture day pic he always shows when he was in grade school was also cute. I wouldnt put him on my list, but I can see where ya coming from.
@Nicki Sunshine,
Glenn Lewis
his CD was nice.. I loved that “anywhere” joint about the crazy chick
@Nicki Sunshine,
Glenn Lewis…mmmmhhhmm…only reason I watch Maid In Manhattan is because of the ONE scene he’s performing in, lol
I know it’s kind of in bad taste to just jump up and throw out five names without anybody every seein’ me here before, but I just found this site and I’m mad I didn’t know about y’all before you kept my insmomniac @$$ up reading 20 million comments from yesterday’s “Cruel Women” post.
Anyway, I know Champ left her off, but I gotta start off givin some love to the Reigning MVP.
C: Candace Parker – I actually met her at a game a couple of weeks ago, and was trying to plot how to confess my undying love for her without her 6’9″-Professional-athelete-husband noticing gettin up out of his courtside seat.

SF: Danielle Fishel – She beat out Lynsey Bartilson, or more accurately, Topanga beat our Lilly Finnerty to fill my non-white/weird TV crush category.
SG: Jaimee Foxworth – Pre-Crave. It’s no fun if we’ve already seen Mr. Marcus having his way with her. So let’s just pretend that never happened.

SF: Danielle Fishel – She beat out Lynsey Bartilson, or more accurately, Topanga beat our Lilly Finnerty to fill my non-white/weird TV crush category.
Of course, I meant non-Black… Whatever, you get it.
@CleverScreenName, on Jaimee Foxworth, we wouldn’t know what’s up with the adult her if she was never Crave.
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
hmm… conundrum… Alright then, let’s switch my off guard from Judy to Rudy. Keshia Knight Pulliam. Conundrum solved.

and your team is one of those sleeper type charlotte bobcat type teams that could end up being much better than people think they are
@The Champ,
Thansk ant $#!t for the welcome…
Yeah, College years Topanga and The Game Tia are gonna ball up some of these others teams that I’m lookin at that are way over the cap. How you gone have Halle, Naomi AND Sanaa startin? That’s like the ’04 Lakers. 4 Hall of Famers and still lose…
@CleverScreenName,
Me and my brother used to want to give it to Topanga back on Boy Meets World.
We would be like “That lame ninja Cory don’t know what to do with that. Look at them lips and that body. Talking about she getting fat…Sucker.”

I feel a little weird now, because I’m older, but I still catch the Disney Channel reruns of the college days, sometimes. I even considered (briefly) watching the dish, just to see those lips move.
Damn.
@Big Man, I’m convinced 2520 dudes don’t know what to do with perfectly serviceable females. They f*ck the game up something terrible with their weird *ss whims.

Nia Long didn’t hold up well from her 90s heyday IMO.
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
Gotta agree. Saw a recent pic, she done fell off. Made me reevaluate whether I was trippin’ back in the day. Jasmine Guy did the same thing. Although I saw that Fresh Prince episode that Jasmine Guy was on, and she had a certain sexiness about her back in the day.

2. He started out singing jingles in Coca Cola commercials and every girl in my school wanted to be next to him on that bus but for purposes of this list, present day 6’0″ dark chocolate goodness that is Tyrese Gibson!!
3. Had me wishing my name was Nina and started my love of spoken word…Circa Love Jones era the whopping 5’7″, get a lot of bang for my buck. big things come in small packages, where’s me pot of gold…Lorenz Tate!!
4. This brotha makes me wanna do thangs, do thangs! Bad Habits video had me soggy all day long! Pre hair cut or post hair cut, whenever, wherever, whatever way he likes it every day of the week and twice on Sunday….Maxwell!!!
5. Glad he grew up…no longer the junky room, bad grade having, Gordon Gartrell shirt wearing, hanging out with friends named Cockroach, the oh so fine, current day specimen that he is…post Cosby Show, Malcolm Jamal Warner
Honorable Mentions go out to the benchwarmers…Derek Luke, Common, Mos Def, and the cutie pie in the Listerine commercials lol…

Mmmm. I forgot about Tyrese. Sometimes when I look at him I just think to myself “I could wear him out.” Definitely up for the challonj!

Back up off Lamon Rucker, aka Officer Troy.
Back up, I say.
@V.E.G.,

@CoCoPuffs,
“1. You guys may know him as Officer Troy in TP’s Why Did I Get Married…coming in at 6?3?, the sweet chocolatey piece of African American man candy…….Lamman Rucker!!”
I thought he looked TO UP in The Temptations as Jimmy Ruffin, but once I saw him in the above movie, I was like, “Dayum!”. You know one of those surprise come-outta-nowhere dayums? Like that. I wasn’t ‘pected alllll that. *fans self*
@CoCoPuffs,
YES!! I remember when Tyrese had a piercing under his lips on the Coke commercial. That man would get it many ways, for many days! I LOVE HIM!! *squeals*
And Lamon Rucker is DELICIOUS. In my dreams, after we get it in and we cuddle, I say “I thought God had given up on me!” *sobs* If only…

i actually know lamman pretty well. we’ve played on a few of the same summer league basketball teams. he’s a pretty down to earth cat. he’s a bit taller than 6’3 too.
@The Champ,
Ill be your very best friend til the end if you make that introduction happen!!!
He did a charity event in DC back in April, Hollywood Hoops, where I missed my opportunity to meet him. I was sooo sad…
Aw…where’s my comment?
@miss t-lee,
comment deez
ooh this is tough. Cuz I don’t usually crush on celebs n stuff. So Let’s see if I can even name 5.
Rosie Perez
Marlyne Aflack
Sandra Bullock (I once crushed hard a black version there of not that she’s not still hot)
Foxy Brown
Kitten (not a worksafe search)

Qualifycation on that last one in the squirt jawn.
Dag and for the 6th woman carmen hayes awe shyt jordan? I don’t even know n e more

@deN.I.A.l is not a river in Egypt….,
I think pron stars should be off limits. Champ, Champ, tell Wu to stop!!
nope. i aint wu’s keeper
@WuDaMan, Kitten look like the type to have an old white pron mogul husband. One who is turned on by watching her duck another man sick…while he holds the camera!
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
Okay I’d qualify her by some of her earlier work. There’s this one she did where she was squirtin. It may have been fake. Haven’t seen her squirt in anything else I don’t think.
@WuDaMan, I’ve seen that Kitten sees to it that her co-stars have an excellent day at the office, so I’m not mad at that part. But she still has that look though. Something about her also comes off kinda demonic, LOL.
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
yo she grew up in the church n stuff man. I cought an interview once.
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
Something about her also comes off kinda demonic, LOL
lol, yeah. she scares the hell out of me.
i’d still beat though

Rosie Perez’s voice makes me wanna kick a cat. Shoot, it sounds like a cat is being kicked. EW.

Yeah but her puerto rican body n face is undeniable… back in the day or still or something

@AkShone,
I wasn’t up on her until the Neptunes(Frontin) video. I was like d@mn when I saw her. She doesn’t have much of a body but her face is beautiful.
@Humble_One aka $5 Footlong,
lol, your second team is gonna be whipping the starters ass everyday in practice
@The Champ,
Other than Kenya Moore my 1st team isn’t much tobrag about below the neck. The second team have the face and body. I should have reversed them.
My turn!
-Tyrin Turner, circa Menace II Society (my token non-NY guy; I got a thing for Cali accents
). Those lips, that skin, that hair….ok, ok maybe not the hair but we could totally get that isht cut! On another note, what’s good wit his awesomely bad hair in every movie he’s in? I wanted to smack Hype’s mama for puttin my baby in that ridiculous asz wig. HE’S THE ILLEST NINJA IN NEBRASKA! Betta act like you know…
-Lord Jamar of Brand Nubian (pre- and circa “Oz”). I could be submissive for him. *sigh*
-Dondre T. Whitfield. I actually know nothing about him other than the fact that he’s pretty and looks like the type of guys I date in real life. Which brings me to…
- Merlin Santana (R.I.P.) Can’t front. I was thoroughly turned off by all them nekkid vests he rocked on Steve Harvey. But he was Moesha’s cutest boyfriend. He also looks like he “comes from the same tribe” as most of the guys I date in real life.
-Stan Spit. He’s kind’ve a whiny biatch and Cam pretty much ethered him but circa Belly, pre-Big L’s shooting he could’ve “got it” (in my dreams as I wasnt “giving” anything back then
). Again, he looks like my physical “type” (at least the type I usually wind up with). Plus I bet could boss him around and make him cry if need be. It works, baby, it works!
And if I have to add a 2520 sub to the squad it’d be Lillo Brancato (circa Bronx Tale). I liked the sound of his voice and he was adorable. Too bad he’s a felonious dope fiend now.
Ok, nevermind. I’ll just take DeNiro in his Godfather II days. Yum.
@Me fail english?,
Lillo Brancto…yes ma’am.
I also used to like Dondre back when he was on All My Children.
Props on Lord Jamar as well.
@Me fail english?,
Oh SHAT! How could I forget Nas? I’ve been crushing on dude ever since he rocked the Bart Simpson cut, “live at the BBQ” with Main Source. Even through his chunky phase (Stillmatic era) I stuck by him. Another one I met and he totally gives off MAN vibes. Respectful, patient, understated. Too bad he makes a shetty boyfriend. (c’mon. both baby mamas leave you? AFTER you got rich?)
Me Fail’s note: I may have a bias towards the men of my fair city.
@Me fail english?,
Merlin Santana (R.I.P.)
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
I actually suffered through that awful Steve Harvey show to look at this boy.
Wait a minute! Has anyone mentioned “Untitled” era D’Angelo yet? That was a magnificent black man! He made me wanna quit my life at home and go have (more of) his babies.
Imma have to bump Dondre and Stan for Nas and D’Angelo.
@Me fail english?,
“Has anyone mentioned “Untitled” era D’Angelo yet? That was a magnificent black man! He made me wanna quit my life at home and go have (more of) his babies.”
Annnd it makes how he downgraded like a mofo that much sadder.
@Me fail english?,
“- Merlin Santana (R.I.P.) Can’t front. I was thoroughly turned off by all them nekkid vests he rocked on Steve Harvey. But he was Moesha’s cutest boyfriend. He also looks like he “comes from the same tribe” as most of the guys I date in real life.”
Girl, YES! I remember I used to be screamin’ at Rudy like, “Team Stanley!” but actually I wanted her to pick Bud so I can (delusionally) have Stanley all to myself. Also, they (her and Bud) had that connection goin on, so…
@Cheekie,
ME TOO! Who told young Me Fail she lived in “Huxtable Brooklyn” like Stanley would swing by my hood for my 8 year old arse if Rudy dumped him. That was also when Keshia Knight-Pulliam was going thru her awkward phase so I just felt like she aint deserve him.
Ima stop commenting now since this is bordering on pedophilia.

Just for you:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h93pPDNDFGQ
Hysterical.
@AkShone,
LOL! He STILL looks sexy to me. THANK YOU!
@Me fail english?, I liked Merlin when he was rudy’s boyfriend on the cosby show…

I had Dondre Whitfield on my list too, but I took him off at the last minute. I used to think he was soooooo fine.
@Me fail english?,
Aint Lillo from Bronx Tale in jail now? *sadness*
And his dimple was TO DIE FOR!
@Luvvie,
Yes. His dope fiend ass followed his girlfriend’s strung out pop into a house to steal some heroin and pills. The father wound up mortally wounding an off duty officer. I dont know if Lillo is still in jail, but Im pretty sure he got charged with smthg and convicted. D’Ah well!
@Me fail english?,
He’s still there. He just got like 10 years this spring/summer. I saw his 20/20 interview.
Sadness.
@miss t-lee,
TEN?! Damn. If I remember correctly he didn’t even fire a weapon. That sux.
@Me fail english?,
Dang…I was just talking to my sister about Calogero! That is her favorite movie.
@Me fail english?,
how the hell are you gonna talk about people naming people you’ve never heard of, and then put stan spit on your team? sh*t, stan spit’s mom doesn’t even remember that cat’s her son
@The Champ,
You leave Stan Spit’s mom out of this!
..and for those who dont know he’s the kid that got shot at the restaurant (the cheesy takeoff of Spider getting shot in Goodfellas) in Belly, while DMX just got high at the table. Also, a Big L protege.

SG – Keri Hilson – Seems to have “normal” untainted by the industry qualities. Probably still keeps Kool-Aid at her crib.
SF – Beyonce – This is Pre-Jay Z, before everyone realizied that she was just a robot who needs a father figure.
PF – Sherri Shepard – Now that she lost weight she’s thick as hell, plus multiple abortions in past indicate a serious freak with low self esteem.
C – Jill Marie Jones – Has a patent on “DSL”
*6th Man would be Keyshia Cole, but just so our families could get together for a BBQ

I don’t think I’ve ever sent anyone to corner , but for this comment right here, you sir…walk!!!
LOL
@miss t-lee,
and stay there til she tell you come out!
@miss t-lee,
Lol and what am I supposed to do while I’m over there?
@TPeezy,
Ha!!!!I don’t know– I told you I’d never sent anyone to the corner before.
@TPeezy,
Think about what you’ve done! lol, we can see you’ve never been in time-out before, lol
@Smiley Face,
Ya, when your folks are from Watts and the south, not to many “time outs” are issued…
@TPeezy,
Ya, when your folks are from Watts and the south, not to many “time outs” are issued…
Such a vivid example of Blackness dropped in this comment.
@TPeezy,
“Lol and what am I supposed to do while I’m over there?”
Do a jig with WuDaMan?
@Cheekie,
A jig?….I’d be more entertained if they did the Kid ‘n’ Play please and thank you
LOL @ The Kid ‘n’ Play. I’ont know why but Wu seems like a “jig” kinda fellow. *shrug*
@TPeezy,
Who you tellin..lol..my mama is Caribbean and my daddy is from Kentucky..only time-out we had was the time they took out to switch hands on yo @zz!
Yo, speaking of whoopins, y’all hear about the study that says kids that got whoppins have lower IQs than those who didn’t?
@Stuff Ghetto People Like ,
“kids that got whoppins have lower IQs than those who didn’t?”
GTFOH…if that were the case, there’d be no VSBs or VSSs. I know 98% of us got that butt whooped.
This is another study, funded by the man, to make us believe that our culture and background prevent us from achieving. Don’t believe the hype.
*raises fist* Power to the People.
@Stuff,
I sense a confounding factor in this study…
@SGPL,
“Yo, speaking of whoopins, y’all hear about the study that says kids that got whoppins have lower IQs than those who didn’t?”
HAHA…please. This got, “We say ‘Kids Who Got Whoopins’ when we really mean ‘Black Folks’ written all over it”.
@Cheekie, to play devil’s advocate, Black cultures aren’t the only ones that whoop their kids. Hell, Indians whoop them too, and we see no shortage of them in colleges and engineering jobs.
But hey, I’m not buying those stats either. There’s more to why the IQ was lower than getting spanked.
@SGPL,
“to play devil’s advocate, Black cultures aren’t the only ones that whoop their kids. ”
Yup, I know. But there’s a lot of other stuff that we get primarily pigeonholed into and we’re not the “only” ones that do it.
@miss t-lee,
PRETTY MUCH! iCackled SO loudly in my office for this.
@Luvvie,
I did too…it was just so evil I felt bad for laughing at it.
@TPeezy, I’ve always found Sherri Shepherd a cute big girl. Starting to realize the potential with her slimming down. Too bad she seems to be losing the girls along with it…but not the extra chin
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
Hmmm, saying she’s losing the girls is like saying Healthcare is causing Obama to lose approval points. Trust me, there’s still plenty to go around….
@TPeezy, bad simile at this time, my brother….baaaaad simile.
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
Lol, seeing him drive by to the UN the past few days faith has reinstilled my faith in the brotha
@TPeezy,
Sherri Shepard may be a size 6 now but her boobs are a size 16 so she looks like she’s gonna topple over at ANY moment. Po’ thang is now shaped like an ice cream cone
@Luvvie,
She’s what we like to call “bad built”.
Let me use it in a sentence,
Shari Shepard is a bad built broad.
@miss t-lee,
“Shari Shepard is a bad built broad.”
Couldn’t of said it better myself. Although if she keeps losing weight she will start to look like a lamp.
@TPeezy,
You is a fool!!!! I just choked myself trying to hold in this laugh! I can’t mess with y’all today! a lamp?!! LMAO!! I’m through with you!
@TPeezy,
Couldn’t of said it better myself. Although if she keeps losing weight she will start to look like a lamp.

With subs coming off the bench David Beckham and Hugh Jackman LOL
@OrangeStar616,
Ne-Yo & Tyson would make a cute couple. Who would give LIFE the most? Who’s lipgloss collection would win out?
@Luvvie, girl don’t make me ruin peoples lists cause I see quite a few suspects listed today, its a dayum shame SMH so many brothas are into any orifice and/or peen exclusively
@OrangeStar616,
lol! Dont tell anyone but I noticed it too! Starting with yall’s man Eggs… Fine as he wanna be but smth tells me he’d be more interested in what the VSB’s think of him…
@Me fail english? that ninja softer than silacone LOL
@Luvvie,
“Ne-Yo & Tyson would make a cute couple. Who would give LIFE the most? Who’s lipgloss collection would win out?”
Tyson’s. Because his would last longer since Ne-Yo OBVIOUSLY uses his lip gloss on his twelvehead.
@OrangeStar616,
Hugh Jackman = YES! me love some european men, too. maybe it’s the accent?
@Selah,
Hugh oozes sex. Me and Wolverine would tear them sheets to shreds, ya heard?
@8th Wonder,
if you believe the rumor, hugh also oozes semen…from his booty…after having sex…with men
@The Champ,
0_O
how dare you introduce this rumor into my life space?
@The Champ,
That was so rude. I will meet you by the willow trees at 6.
@The Champ,
*gasp*
Look, just because he shimmies at the Tony Awards don’t make him a catcher/pitcher.
Pshaw. Hugh as Wolverine is HOT.
He was hot in that movie Swordfish too.
@The Champ, I heard that rumor and I pray it isn’t true…he a fionne ass white man tho I even liked him in Kate and Leopold(sp) LMAO
@The Champ,
LOL….then just eww
Harvey (from Celibrity Fit Club)… he just has that whole alpha man thing going on
Dave Chappell… I love this dude for many reasons
Barak Obama…Duh! who wouldn’t
The guy from the insurance commercials… ( he was also in waiting to exhale)… I dont know his name, but he is soooooooooooooooo sexy to me
Method Man… gotta have a thug on the team.
I would get my groupie on with every single man on this list!
@Lanieanna,
The guy from the insurance commercials… ( he was also in waiting to exhale)… I dont know his name, but he is soooooooooooooooo sexy to me
That would be Dennis Haysbert, famously David Palmer of 24,arguably THE man to open America up to electing a brother president.
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
No that’s Kenneth the two-timing loser! But dont worry. She was in no danger of him leaving his wife. *tosses drink in lap and leaves*
@Me fail english?, I’m convinced only females internalize movies (and books) like those….
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
we shole do! I cain’t never like Dennis Haysbert because he was ratchet azz kenneth in Waiting to Exhale AND the cheatin daddy in Love and Basketball. Baztard!

@Mr. Kay,
ms robbins is a sentimental favorite of mine. panama and i have pardon your interruption type arguments about her attractiveness for years (i think she’s banging, he thinks shes busted)
@The Champ,
Liz Robbins is a buttaface. Her body is BANGIN. Face wise she is meh.
@Humble_One aka $5 Footlong,
see, i completely disagree with that, lol. different strokes i guess
I knew folks were gonna judge me.
I had a huuuuge crush on chuck back then.
Maybe cuz he cussed on tv and I liked that.
Maybe cuz he looks like he could beat Negroes up.
Maybe cuz he has a nice smile.
I dunno.
lol.
I just DID. So much so, his poster was over my bed. lol.
@V.E.G.,
My BFF used to have a huge crush on Chuck, back in the day…
You almost have me wanting to tell my ol school NBA crush which most people give me a side eye when I mention him…lol
@miss t-lee,
Give it up…
@V.E.G.,
Okay…um…
he used to play for the Pistons, the Bulls, the Spurs and he’s got 5 rings.
@miss t-lee,
Dennis.
refraining from the o_O
lol.
To your credit, his body was sick.
@V.E.G. ,
It shol’ was…ya feel me?
Plus I just figured he was a uberfreak, so that was like 90% of the crush.
*schoolgirl giggling*
@miss t-lee & V.E.G.,
Oh hell nah! I feel like a mother whose pretty daughters just brought ugmo ninjas home for Christmas dinner. *clutches chest, bracing for heart attack*
Must be how my mama felt when me and my sister’s each picked one of the Five Heartbeats as our “man”.
I cant judge too hard tho. I had crushes on Prince, Michael Jackson and David Bowie as a little girl. I dunno if I used to be secretly gay when I was little or what, but that androgynous ish DID it for me at 3 and 4 years old.
@ Me fail english?,
It’s all good, this is the usual response I get…LMAO!!!
@V.E.G., I liked Charles back in the day too.. I have a thing for dudes that just dont give a f!ck LOL
plus he has a gentle smile.. he’s probably extra thug by day.
and a ol g.ay a$$ sucka fa love a$$ ninja at night….LOL
@shay_d_lady,
“he’s probably extra thug by day.
and a ol g.ay a$$ sucka fa love a$$ ninja at night”
This is what I think.
@shay_d_lady,
Well, we know he’s willing to go to jail for some good head.
That’s a plus, right?
1. Idris Elba in the Wire (I know cliche but ion curr)
2. Maxwell circa 1998, if it’s cool, we could kick a little something something
3. Lenny Kravitz circa aytime….
4. Common – I ‘d get up on that conscious d*ck, lol
5. Erykah Badu, I will be her “Honey” and ollow her “Orange Moon” anywhere, even into “Next Lifetime”
@Naturally Alise,
“1. Idris Elba in the Wire (I know cliche but ion curr)”
Shooot, I was ’bout to change Idris’ name to Stringer Bell on my list. HE’S the reason I fell for Idris. It’s THE VOICE.
@Naturally Alise, Common – I ‘d get up on that conscious d*ck, lol
LMAO
as I agree
but only now…I wasnt feeling the extra thin or the erykah badu common….he is at his FIONEST right now!!!!
@shay_d_lady,
Yeah. Middle class angsty (perhaps alcoholic???) Common was NOT the business. Who knew he’d develop into such a fine specimen. Another one who is totally not my type. Got me breaking barriers and isht…
@Me fail english?,
I agree, the age did Common well, because in his earlier days I didn’t think he was even cute.
@Naturally Alise,
5. Erykah Badu, I will be her “Honey” and ollow her “Orange Moon” anywhere, even into “Next Lifetime”
I will have to agree with that. I have crushes on all her men as well…
the only one of your dream team that i could roll with is yaya.
my team would consist of:
point guard: gabrielle union. her skin is flawless, she has a cute figure and an all around girl next door vibe. she has a thing for athletes but i won’t hold that against her.
2 guard: taraji henson. two words- baby boy. the sex scene in that movie had me wanting her for a while. plus she can make tacos. i love her accent.
small forward: keri hilson. even though her fashion sense is a little off i dig this chick. maybe its her eyes. she just does it for me (even though she has no ass).
power forward: sanaa lathan. she just has a natural beauty that can’t be matched. plus i’m convinced she can hoop in real life. did y’all she her ab work in love and basketball?
center: jessica white (pre nose job). our complexions are about the same and i have a thing for cocoa brown skin. she could get it twice a day and 3 times on sunday.
@Tunde,
“2 guard: taraji henson. two words- baby boy. the sex scene in that movie had me wanting her for a while. plus she can make tacos. i love her accent.”
Her accent? LOL..Souf Eas all day long! Hmm never thought about DC folk having an accent, maybe I’m deaf to it..?
@Smiley Face, its more of a twang, and err bo’eee don’t got it, only some of us do, its very distinct, almost southren..people swear I’m from wayyyy down south LLS…I always loved that about Taraji as well, she let all of Benning Rd out @ the BET awards this year LOL…I wish ol girl would hire me as her stylist tho, her style game very inconsisent…….
@OrangeStar616,
I know…that’s just normal to me though, lol. I’m thinking ‘what accent?’
@OrangeStar616,
I wish ol girl would hire me as her stylist tho, her style game very inconsisent…….
That’s the word.
@Smiley Face, i’m from the urea too but i moved away in 2004, so i can really hear it now that i’ve been living in the south for a couple of years. funny thing is people tell me i have an accent but i can’t hear it.
@Tunde,
lol, i know right. I wonder if southern people think they don’t have an accent?
@Smiley Face,
LMAO!
I’m a Southern person who likes to think I don’t have any accent, but a few of my folks from other areas are quick to point it out. Especially when I say numbers…hahah
@miss t-lee,
lol!!!
@Tunde,
Sanaa Lathan said she had never played basketball until she had to film Love & Basketball. She had to be coached for like 3-4 months straight.
Sanaa learned to hoop like a pro in 4 months. I played ball for 4 yrs and she’d prolly still school me. *Sigh*
@Luvvie, that means you probably weren’t that good. lol. what position did/do you play? you seem like a shooting guard or small forward.
@Tunde,
LOL I wrote a post about my hooping days on my blog. Twas called Confessions of a Former Hooper. Let’s just say that in high school, me and the bench were one and the same.
I’m 5’4 and built like I run Track. I was a guard. Point or shooting. I’m fast so I was better at Point. I miss basketball. I still got a crisp pair of Air Maxes in the box just in the case of a hooping emergency. Yeah, so what they haven’t been touched in 4 yrs? Don’t judge me!
@Luvvie, ill have to check out that post. i should do a blog on hooping, seeing as how i spend anywhere from 6-10 hours a week playing ball. sometimes more.
@Luvvie,
“built like I run Track”
o_O
@Luvvie,
Sanaa learned to hoop like a pro in 4 months
lol, no she didnt. she still stunk.
@Tunde,
center: jessica white (pre nose job). our complexions are about the same and i have a thing for cocoa brown skin. she could get it twice a day and 3 times on sunday.
she had a nose job?
@The Champ, man did she? her nose was perfect to me before she tried to get all caucasian on us.

Dayum…how Imma forget Clifton Powell!!
@Smiley Face,
Can I get a late addition of Orlando Bloom then? I would love to corrupt his lil innocent, soft-spoken self.

@Me fail english?,
Oh yes, ma’am! I remember my Orlando Bloom phase during the LOTR madness. Hotness.
@Me fail english?,
mmmhhhmmm…but he has to put those ears back on…i love me some wicked ears (y’all hush).
I don’t what positions these folks should play, I just know that all 5 of them would look good playing basketball in the heat with their shirts off and nothing but a pair of shorts. I’ve included photos for your viewing pleasure…

Hey VSB Team!
love your “dream team” blog!

Check it out: http://erica-watson.blogspot.com/2009/06/dream-team-every-single-girl-needs-one.html
@Comedian Erica Watson,
welcome and sh*t
I like Kenya Moore for two reasons:
Right after she won the Miss USA pageant, she was signing pictures in some convenience store and she told me she liked my jacket (I was 8. Yes, I’m that young.).
Also, it’s cliche, but her winning that pageant showed me at the time that ‘we’ (dark-skinned black women) could be considered beautiful. AND. She’s an Aquarius. Holla at us.
@WordSmith,
i love kenya moore for two reasons too, but i cant print them since my gf will probably read this
Yay, list friday is back…
Well, this list really changes quite often for me but those 5 seem to remain in rotation:
1 – Dhani Jones : because he’s just yummy… the things I’ll do…. *sigh*
2 – Michael Ealy : The look just makes me drool…
3 – CP3 – the one who doesn’t wear a B-Cup – Chris Paul: I usually don’t find younger men attractive, but he’s just so a-do-rable!
4 – Chris Webber – circa Sacramento Kings era- I mean he was delicious and sexy…
5 – Lenny Kravitz – I mean what’s not to love? He’s irreverent, talented and gorgeous!
(Now, should I be concerned that my list has 3 professional athletes on it? What does it say about me? Freud?
)
@Sula,
“5 – Lenny Kravitz – I mean what’s not to love? He’s irreverent, talented and gorgeous!”
Mmmm. I want to get away, I want to get away, I want to fly away with THAT ninja. Yummy.
I used to LOVE his video for “Again”. Very sensual.
@Sula,
Forgot about Chris Webber. And yes CP3 (male) is too adorable.
@Sula,
5 – Lenny Kravitz
Ohhh Lawd. I love the “I Belong To You” video.
Yum.
@miss t-lee,
Yeah Lenny defines sexy. Funny enough, Im not attracted to him at all. But I feel like if I had to describe him to the police I’d just say “i got mugged by some sexy guy.” And they would immediately find and apprehend him wherever he was in the city. Cuz everyone knows he’s so sexy.
@Me fail english?,
Lol. So true. lol.
He also looks like his sweat smells sweet. Wait…is that just me?
Never mind.
@V.E.G.,
LOL…now that I think about it….
It actually makes sense. I can see that, I can see that…
@V.E.G.,
He looks like everything smells sweet.
Okay…I’m gonna walk away for a bit.
@V.E.G.,
At Center: Dhani Jones always and forever
Why you gotta steal my Point Guard??????!!!! Thems fighting words!!!
1. Andre 3000 – I’ve had a crush on him since 8th grade (“Rosa Parks” era).
…I’m actually going to have to go ahead and put him in all 5 spots. Many have come and gone through the years, but he’s been the most consistent.
@WordSmith, I love Dre esp as a fellow gemini, but never had a crush on him…..
That jacket Zoe got on in that pic up there is cute.
I was waiting for someone to mention Gary Dourdan. I’ll take him circa A Different World, pre CSI with all his Shazaaaaa fineness.
@Captain Morgan,
Shaza Zulu WAS hot.
And he was sexy in that Janet Jackson video.
Funny, once the locs were gone, he started looking crackish to me.
@Captain Morgan, I caught Gary Dourdan bar-hopping in Venice a couple of weeks ago. He had a real “that guy” look about him like he just sniffed glue or something.
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
“like he just sniffed glue”
lmao! That’s EXACTLY what he looks like!
I’d like to add a practice team also
Cuban Lust – Her body is crazy. I don’t care much for the tatoo on the backside but the hip-to-waist ration makes up for it.
Serena Williams – The black suit did it for me. Her wearing that suit was a major turning point in history for black men.
Paulette Braxton – She was LL’s girlfriend on “In the House” and The Professor’s girlfriend in on “The Pakers”.
Shari Headley – Dudes are sleeping on her. You can’t see it in “Coming to America” but she has a crazy body.
Icecoldchampagne – Although she always seems to look like a deer in headlights with her pics she is put together RIGHT.
@Humble_One aka $5 Footlong,
Cuban Lust – Her body is crazy. I don’t care much for the tatoo on the backside but the hip-to-waist ration makes up for it.
yeah, thats definitely what you do with chicks like her…practice
@Humble_One aka $5 Footlong, YOUNG! Ninjas just don’t understand about Serena Williams. Like she’s just beatable and the goodies are just right…after she showers and brushes the teeth….
@Stuff Ghetto People Like,
Word. I’ve had mad dudes knock me for feeling her. Like you said she is “she’s just beatable and the goodies are just right…after she showers and brushes the teeth….”. Serena Williams is like a real good 6th man. Although I wouldn’t attempt to smash without a rigorous 6th month P90X regimen.
@Humble_One aka $5 Footlong, who you tellin’, we all tryna get in shape.
1. Meghan Good
Yeah, it’s a trite pick, but what do I care. Have you seen her in a sweatpants and a beater? If you have, you cannot doubt my wisdom. She runs the team.
2. Old school Jada Pinkett
I’m going with a small backcout. I’m betting on their quickness and aggressive nature keep the other team off balance.
3. Beverly Johson during her heyday.
Versatile veteran with a ridiculously complete skill set. Model, actress and absolute banger without clothes. No downside.
4. Serena Williams
Everybody needs a banger in the post. Serena may not have the protypical build, but her strengths far outweigh her flaws. One word, catsuit.
5. Sanaa Lathan
Undersized, possibly on the downside of her reign, I still give Sanaa the nod because like Kareem with the Lakers, she still gets it down. Something about how she handled herself in Love and Basketball made her a keeper, I don’t care how many stories I hear about her craziness.
@Big Man,
3. Beverly Johson during her heyday.
Versatile veteran with a ridiculously complete skill set. Model, actress and absolute banger without clothes. No downside.
you know whats crazy, her daughter (anessna?) is even better looking. she used to mess with a friend of mine and cats would drool and double take whenever she’d come around.
Wait, ain’t nobody got Lil’ Wayne on their starting lineup?
@Cheekie,
Haha. I really used to think Wayne was cute. Then he got all those tats that make him look dirty, some dry ass locks and the funky arse plat/diamond teeth and I was over it. But yeah, Hot Boys-era Wayne was a cutie pie.
Know who else is cute? Soulja Boy. Goddam right!
@Me fail english?,
“But yeah, Hot Boys-era Wayne was a cutie pie. ”
You know what, for all of my roasting of him today, I thought he was kinda cute during that era too. lol
@Me fail english?,
After admiting this you sure can’t talk about my questionable crush downthread.
@miss t-lee,
Nah girl. I think you still hold the crown for ugliest crush.
Matter fact, makes that oooooh-gliest crush! Haha
@Me fail english?,
BOOOO!!!!! hahaha
honorable mentions/substitutes not yet picked up by other teams:

I’m a gemini, I can’t possibly have the same 5 forever. But here is 8th’s five of the moment in no particular order:
1. Adam Rodriguez from CSI Miami
2. David Banner (Only if he’s fat, streamlined DB is unacceptable)
3. Trey Songz…yes.
4. Mechad Brooks- Eggs from True Blood. Words cannot do that body and deep voice justice.
5. Reggie Bush. Reggie Bush. REGGIE MUTHAF*CKIN BUSH.
@8th Wonder,
2. David Banner (Only if he’s fat, streamlined DB is unacceptable)
This is why you’re my e-twinny.
@miss t-lee,
Damn right!
@8th Wonder,
Oooh, forgot about Adam Rodriquez. Isnt he dating Taraji P. Henson now? Talk about an upgrade! Eat that, Odom!
I was thinkin about Trey but he’s just too damn small. Ima need him to gain like 20 lbs and holla back. Plus he looks like the darker, male version of one of my sisters. They both got that woodland creature (like Bambi, or the chipmunks in Snow White) look that runs on my mama’s side of the family. I could see us being related somehow. Ewww.
@Me fail english?,
LOL
Trey looks kinda like a marsupial, but damned if that voice don’t do it for me. I love Trey’s passion. Like, if you gave him a soup label, he would sing the F*CK out of the ingredients, just because.
@Me fail english?,

@SnijanaFleur, Djimon Hounsou in Janet Jackson’s “Love Will Never Do (Without You)” video was 150% gay.
The gayness percentage shtick is here to stay.
I’d like to add a youthful Marvin Gaye around1961 early Motown drummer and session musician days. Marvin was very handsome and debonaire even……..
@OrangeStar616,
I second that. Without knowing about all his issues, that was a bad mofo.
@OrangeStar616,
Yeah, young Marv was the epitome of debonaire.
@Cheekie, wasn’t he tho, just Dashing……I think I’d take him thru all those years even the Star Spangled version too, issues and all still was such a beautiful being and spirit to me!
My starting 5:
Chiwetel Ejiofor
Dwyane Wade – One of the most gorgeous men I’ve ever seen
Will Smith
Barack Obama
Maxwell

A Black man with a strange accent is still Black.
