Let me know if you peeps are signing up for the Phillies game. I got loan sharks knocking on my door looking for the money. They’ll bust my knee caps out if I don’t get them this cash for this game. Just yesterday they scooped me up while I was on a jog, which was a glorious jog by the way…. but as I was running they drove up beside me in a white van. The side door slid open and they threw a sack on my head. I couldn’t see anything! All I felt was these big dudes rollin on me with some sort of pipe. And every once in awhile, this little guy would taze me. I knew he was little because one of the big guys said.. “Lil steve, hits em again.” The next thing I know, I’m riding the lighting and pissin my underpants. After they realized I had nothing left in my bladder, and was one pipe shot away from seeing Jesus (or Allah, God, nobody, RA, Bob Marley or whoever else you believe or don’t believe in) they dumped me out of the van in front of my kids. I was like, “don’t worry babies, daddy is ok.” And just when I thought my kids where gonna come hug me as I laid there helpless, they reached into my pockets and took out a 20. So my main point is… Anyone serious about the Phils game, please get in your cash so we know where we stand. This way I can keep Lil Steve and the Boyz off my back. They said if I don’t get them the cash soon, they are gonna start making me do weird things to pay them back……. like rake the leaves at one of their houses or drive Lil Steve to his appointments. If you actually want some useful information, unlike the last 2 minutes of your life that I just wasted, then read on.
