I have only missed watching 2 Super Bowls in the last 35 years, Both from being in the hole upstate meaning extended lock down while serving time. There is a such a thing as jail in jail.

Fast Forward to present day...

Today I cannot and will not watch Super Bowl LIII. Why should I? The wrong freaking team made it to the dance on the biggest missed call debacle in sport's history. The whole world witnessed as the Saints were robbed. Four supposed to be top officials in the league acted like they were the only ones in the world who didn't see the play. They didn't even huddle up to discus at least the helmet-to-helmet penalty the Rams defender committed. Everybody is quick to say woulda, coulda and shoulda but lets be realistic. That call has to be made. If today's Super Bowl is not tainted enough then I don't truly know the definition.

Furthermore,the Commissioner of the NFL---Roger Goodell decides to sit in a shell and not address the world till 10 days later. If that ain't telling a team---'up yours'---then what is? True I'm a die hard Saints fan but it could have happened to any team. Now the theme is for our Saints and the Who Dat Nation to move on and get over it;;; Wow...

Today there are numerous Boycott Bowls going down nationwide. Holy shit check out the irony---we're allowed to boycott now? Colin boycotted standing for our country's anthem and he was pretty much labeled the Spawn of Satan. He wasn't even invited to try out for a team. Yet referees can deter an outcome of a game and a shady apology follows? FUCK THAT---you damn right I'm not watching Super Bowl LIII.

It's more than likely Brady will come out victorious adding another ring to GOAT quarterback and GOAT coach. No disrespect but I am tired of the same old song. Drew Brees and the Saints were supposed to be representing the NFC in Atlanta today. Unfortunately the zebras prevented it deliberately and Atlanta's mayor should be a palled.

Oh well I wont be watching and I'm sure many feel the same way. All we can do is yell "WHO DAT!" and right after shoot up the middle fingers and yell---"Fuck those referees, Fuck Roger and FUCK the NFL!" We in New Orleans have made a living overcoming adversity---this is just another stepping stone.

I apologize if I have offended any readers with my vulgarity but It's coming from the heart. THANK YOU FOR AN AMAZING SEASON---NEW ORLEANS SAINTS---we #loveyahea

Sincerely,
King Steelo

Here is a snippet from my new book: Land of the G's... Home of the K's''' Your favorite Author is back in the lab... New book: The Bayou Stalker will be available on Amazon---kindle and paperback... Also check out my previous books @ www.amazon.com/author/kingsteelo

Excerpt from Land of the G's...Home of the K's...

I stood beside the door with my sawed off cocked and ready. Nauti took off her skull cap, allowing her braids to show and knocked on the door. Someone looked through the peephole and stood there a minute. The person was trying to analyze who was the chick with the painted face at the door. Then he yelled, “Who is it?”
“It’s Nickie,” said Nauti with a smirk.
“Who,” said the doorman sounding like an owl.
“It’s me Nickie---answer the door yo!”
I couldn’t believe it---she sounded convincing enough because this clown unlocked the door. Before he could say a word, nauti shoved the silencer on her pistol into his mouth. Then I rushed in with the sawed off and yelled, “Alright mother fuckers---this is a stick-up---one false move and you die!” Everybody froze.
“Hey you 2 Nintendo geeks---pull out that safe, open it and empty it into this bag,” I said while throwing a duffel bag at them. “You with the gat in your mouth---get me all the drugs out the fridge and if you try something funny---your brains are gonna splatter all over the groceries.”
“Do you know who the fuck I am,” spat their so called leader and I got the feeling he wasn’t gonna be able to keep his mouth shut for 5 minutes.
“I don’t give a fuck who you are and if you don’t shut the fuck up---I’m gonna pump enough lead in your ass that you’ll be shittin’ out pencils in a closed casket.” I said with the barrel aiming at his chest.
“Okay Mister Sandman give me a dream,” he replied and I was impressed with the fact he had balls.
“Oh so you think I’m playing huh?” I said gritting my teeth because I couldn’t believe this dude was testing me. Furthermore his boys thought this was really a game and Nauti looked restless.
“Just leave now and I won’t come hunting for you and your bitch,” said Mr. Bad Ass.
“Okay like Burger King---have it your way mother fucker,” I yelled while pointing at his leg and squeezing the trigger. A loud ‘BOOM’ invaded the air and Mister Bad Ass hit the floor. My intention was for a few buckshots hitting his leg and he squealing like a pig. Unfortunately for him, I was at close range, so the bottom limb of his leg came off from the knee down. He screamed worse than the white chicks in scary movies and his homeboys shitted on themselves.
“From here on out---nothing but dome shots!” I said with authority and cocking the shotty. The 2 video game geeks on the couch pulled out the secret stash in the couch and began filling up one of my duffel bags. The doorman pulled out 2 big jars out of the refrigerator, twisted off the tops and bundles of heroin went into my duffel bags.
While zipping up one of the bags, the doorman gave me a dirty look. Nauti caught him and ordered him to the couch. He rolled his eyes at her and mouthed the words “BITCH” All of a sudden, Nauti let off a shot and caught him in the shoulder blade. He too fell to the floor screaming like a bitch and joining his one-legged friend. The others began begging for their lives immediately and Nauti gave me a devious smile. Later word got around how 2 victims were left bleeding in the living room and 2 others hogtied.
At the same time, the Halloween party was dispersing in the adjacent building. We saw people jumping into different cars as we walked up. Nauti offered someone a $100 and we were enroute to downtown. We saw an ambulance and 2 police cars racing towards Delaney in the opposite direction. Our caper was a success and mischief night ended on a high note. Tomorrow the streets would be safe for trick or treaters.

gimme feedback peoples...Holla at ya boy...

Yes I've been quiet awhile... A ton has happened and on top of the mountain is Donald Trump winning the presidential election. Unfortunately I couldn't vote being currently on parole after serving 12 years incarcerated. Not like my vote would've really mattered except been counted in the popular vote which doesn't mean SHIT because it's the electoral votes that determine the president. Trump got the big numbers, pulled away and won. Which can only mean America wanted change---people were tired of the political buffoonery and money hungry leeches that attack called insurance... Will TRUMP save the day---let the Man get in office and try... Time will tell...

I've heard tsunami size excuses on why Trump will succeed or fuck this country up even more...What's worse than this---don't let me release my #blacklivesmatter alter ego... Check out what my brother Tito put up as a Facebook post and received feedback from every which way but loose...

Tito---"So today I made myself look a little deeper into this whole Trump being our president thing, I tried to find the Good in this situation I really did. First I started by looking into who was behind his whole presidential campaign, who were some of his biggest supporters because like many in the past there is usually a financial and influential force driving a campaign. I found two specific individuals Stephen Bannon and Kris Kobach. Let's start with Kris! Why should should this name terrify you? Because Donald Trump named him, one of the most racist politicians in all of America to his transition team. Kris Kobach was the architect of the most racist law in modern American history. SB 1070 passed in Arizona in 2010. What did it mean? If you have brown skin or an accent, police had a right to stop you, detain you and demand you prove your citizenship. Then Trump went on to name Internet and “alt-right” provocateur Steve Bannon as chief White House strategist causing a wave of controversy. Bannon’s previous leadership at Breitbart, a conservative website known for anti-Muslim and anti-immigrant views, and his identification as an “alt-right” nationalist flame thrower, has some wondering whether he’s the person who should have the president-elect’s ear. The appointment has churned up a series of racial controversies involving Bannon and the nationalistic “alt-right” movement. The New York Times penned an article that said critics see Bannon as a “voice of racism.” He once said he wanted to destroy “the state,” and described a global anti-establishment movement. Breitbart itself wrote of the alt-right, “There are many things that separate the alternative right from old-school racist skinheads (to whom they are often idiotically compared), but one thing stands out above all else: intelligence.” (((WTF))) The site also noted in a March article, “The alt-right’s intellectuals would also argue that culture is inseparable from race. The alt-right believe that some degree of separation between people is necessary for a culture to be preserved.” You know like Hitler, for those living under a rock Hitler tried to preserve his version of the Christian/German culture by wiping out the Jewish people and causing WWII but that's just another rant. But wait it gets better, I was so upset with the whole situation that I never took the time to educate myself about our new Vice President, surely he maybe the voice of reason sense President Donald Trump stated publicly that Mike Pence would be the most hands on Vice President in the history of the United States! Well did you know Mike Pence not only believes but is a supporter in conversion therapy??? For those of you that don't know what conversion therapy is let me explain; Conversion therapy is psychological treatment or spiritual counseling designed to change a person's sexual orientation from homosexual or bisexual to heterosexual. Such treatments are controversial and are a form of pseudoscience. Medical, scientific, and government organizations in the United States and Britain have expressed concern over conversion therapy and consider it potentially harmful. In a nutshell they believe they can electrically shock the gay out of people. Say it with me people (((WTF))), yes, shit is real but just in case you want to blame old ass, old money, non progressive, racist, right wing America remember, we let this happen, we didn't show up for the fight, we just talked about it, we didn't do anything about it! See yall at the polls in 4 years, this time don't talk about it be about it!"

There you have it peoples---RAW and uncut with facts... I myself am in total agreement with Tito... If the walls of democracy come tumbling down---don't point the finger... Blame yourself---what you see is what you get or rather---from political mumbo jumbo-------You get what you VOTE for Fuckers!!! If you didn't vote---maybe you should've---DORK!!! #prayforAmerica #Trump #theendisnear

On Friday night, before a 49ers preseason game against the Packers---quarterback Colin Kaepernick chose not to stand for the national anthem.

It wasn't an accident. He didn't forget. He wasn't injured.

He didn't stand at attention like Gabby Douglas did during the Olympics. He stayed seated - ON PURPOSE...

It was a deliberate act of protest.

Colin Kaepernick---like millions of people all over this country, has had enough. I've had enough. Everybody I know and love has had enough. If you don't know what we've had enough of---you are probably white and probably live in a bubble that has protected you not only from the injustice, but even from its reality.

The levels of injustice, racism, bigotry and brutality faced by people of color has crossed an invisible threshold in America. The straw has broken the camel's back. It was not just the violent police killings of Philando Castile and Alton Sterling this summer that pushed many of us past our breaking point, but the accumulation of injustice and the corresponding unwillingness of this nation to truly take the problem seriously that has put us where we are now. It's too much.

What Colin Kaepernick did---not only by refusing to stand, but by then very clearly saying that he was refusing to stand for an anthem to a country that habitually mistreats African-Americans at every turn---was one of the boldest moves in the history of American sports. It follows Muhammad Ali's refusal to fight in the Vietnam War and the Black Power salute hoisted in the air at the 1968 Olympics by Tommie Smith and John Carlos.

The stages those athletes were on may have been bigger, but in this generation, in this era, no athlete has ever done something quite like what Colin Kaepernick just did. Over the past year, Colin and I have become friends online. While I had no idea that he was going to protest this way---I've seen up close how disturbed he has become by injustice in America. We should all be that disturbed.

I have actually grown quite used to athletes saying and doing very little about injustice, but we've crossed over to the point that even Michael Jordan, who is known for staying away from such public risks, has said that he's had enough. If that doesn't tell you how bad the problems are, then you simply don't get it.

Of course the racists and white supremacists are already out like a pack of wolves. They always are---but what they don't get is that Kaepernick did not do this for himself. He knows that he is a privileged and wealthy NFL quarterback. He did this for the families of victims of police brutality who are left to do nothing but grieve when their loved ones are killed by the very people paid to protect them. He did this for Sterling and Castile. He did this for Tamir. He did this because he knows, like I know, that the brutality is going to continue and not a single substantive thing has been done to stop it.

On Saturday afternoon, I spoke to a crowd of hundreds of college students---most of whom are young women of color. Without fail, each and every one of them told me that it pains them to stand up for the national anthem. Many said they stopped singing it years ago. I did as well.

I haven't cared to sing the anthem for a good 15 years. Does that mean that we hate America? Does that mean that we hate soldiers? Does that mean that we are spitting in the face of people that have sacrificed their lives?

Hell No!

It means that right now, we don't feel like singing a love song to a country that seems to love black culture but not black people. It means that we don't believe many words in this song or in the Pledge of Allegiance.

This is not the land of the free.

This country does not have liberty and justice for all.

Colin Kaepernick was tired of the lies, so he stayed seated. He just had enough courage of convictions to actually do what so many of us have thought of doing for years.

And here's the thing, if you are angrier today with what Colin did than you have ever been about police brutality and the painful denials of justice that inevitably follow, then you, not Colin, are the real problem...

KING STEELO: At the end of the day---it's his right and free will to not stand if he doesn't want to. Nobody can force him to either---it's what AMERICA is---your freedom to believe what you want to and freedom to stand up to what you want to! Instead of roasting him on social media---respect his mind and wishes. I am proud to be an American but I also fear of being caught up in a situation where the popo's will shoot me because of my rap sheet. i have to be aware at all times... Real Talk...

What's up friends, readers and followers... As you already know---yours truly has been free since October 2015 and it's been a hell of a transition back to freedom, but I love every second of it!!! Just being free is a blessing and after regaining mine---blessings are bombarding me left and right. I have a great woman by my side, good job, my own crib, a car no note, a grown daughter, a baby on the way, weird but lovable step kids, getting cameos in film---NCIS New Orleans and you better believe it---still writing FYA books...

My true readers---thank you for entering my world and reading my previous 4 books... If you haven't---please do so @ www.amazon.com/author/kingsteelo I now welcome you to my 5th book--- a suspense thriller about a serial killer---The Bayou Stalker... coming soon on kindle and paperback...

The Bayou Stalker

In the year 2002, Derrick Jones is released from prison after serving time for simple burglary. His future doesn't look too bright, until he runs into his former high school sweetheart Gail. they rekindle their flame, move in together and she gets him a job in maintenance at the Louisiana State University...

Little does she know that Derrick is leading two lives---a good husband and an undercover sex addict. He's good looking, charming and irresistible to many women, especially college students. Then an incident changes him altogether. He accidentally kills one of his many lovers by strangling her during sex. The orgasm he felt as the life drained out of her made the experience priceless and he became instantly hooked to that feeling of power...

Now Derrick has become a monster, a sociopath and a serial killer that is terrorizing southwest Louisiana. The local authorities have his DNA from the semen he leaves inside of his victims, but he is not in the database. The FBI appoints a special task force unit to capture him, but Derrick is smart and continues the mayhem right under their noses. It's like a sport to him and he enjoys the cat and mouse game. His crimes may change the Louisiana law books forever and even make you look at your neighbor or your classmates in a new perspective...

Coming soon to Amazon and Createspace peeps... Support a local author and enter a literary world like none other...

What up Free World? I know Father's Day was months ago but that's just 1 day out of a year. Furthermore you can't just be a father for 1 day and you have to earn the title too. Any man can bust a nut in a chick but it takes a real man to raise a child, even if he isn't the biological. I love my daughter Julisa but I wasn't present for 12 years of her life because of my bad decisions that got me incarcerated. It's no secret while doing time---you have tons of time to think.

Where did I go wrong? You can't take back what got you to rock bottom----all you can do is RISE and move forward. The best way is to re-establish relationships with your children...
Now I take this time to share a poem I wrote while incarcerated. To every father out there---read and motivate yourself on being a better father to your children. The next generations need our guidance, but don't just talk about it---BE ABOUT IT! Ask yourself---

A Better Father---Can I Be?

Why is this world so cold? I've got many stories to tell about the drugs I did and sold, but in the end---this soldier fell.
The judge said, "7 years" and in my eyes I felt tears, that's years without my daughter, family and all my peers. Now I'm trapped in a prison where I can get right or get worse, because if I go back and do the same thing---I may end up in a hearse.
Running the streets was mega fun but not fun enough to lose my freedom, so when I think about the younger generation---the wrong route I hope I didn't lead them. I've sat here with anger and pain and to keep it simple and plain---I've realized long ago that I should've been stopped playing!
A dead beat dad I could never be, a better father I want to be, or I can sit here and make excuses like, "it's because my dad wasn't there for me." I've held a grudge on my dad because when I was 6 is when he left, now my daughter is 6 and fatherless---is history repeating itself?
My dad left for reasons I couldn't understand and me---I chose to break the rules. I miss cooking my daughter breakfast and taking her school, or taking her to the park, reading her a book and us together watching cartoons, don't worry my little Juju your daddy's COMING HOME SOON...
I still respect my baby mamma and my daughter has always been my motivation, plus I'm blessed because I get to see her every month on visitations. I took parenting classes to enhance my fathering skills during my incarceration and I got great results---so I wrote this to show my appreciation. I learned from my mistakes but I thank GOD for all the knowledge and wisdom---and for opening my eyes before I become victim to the wicked Louisiana recidivism system.
When I get outta here---there's one more obstacle at hand---to tell my mother that I'm sorry---her only son has finally grown up to be a man.
To all incarcerated fathers: This isn't the end---more like the beginning. It's a crazy world we live in but that bitch keeps spinning!
Our children are the future, so let's lead them in the right direction---that razor wired fence can't stop us from giving our kids affection.
No longer am I MAD and this humbleness is something I never had, last but not least Thank You Heavenly Father because I'll be walking outta here truly one of the BEST DAD'S...

If you have read my book Kites then you already know a kite is a prison slang term for a letter. In case you haven't figured it out by now---do you know a letter to someone locked up is a blessing. So if you haven't written your loved one or friend who's incarcerated---you're down bad! Put yourself in their shoes---it could be you in the belly of the beast tweaking for a kite from the free world. Y'all already know Louisiana is the #1 prison capital of the world! Recidivism is a virus out here! How do we stop it? The powers that be don't wanna stop it---it makes 182 million dollars a year for this state... Trust me---this is a rock bottom you never want to be...

I served 12 years in Louisiana prisons and now I'm a FREE man. As a matter of fact, I self published my first 4 novels from behind the prison walls... Check me out @ www.amazon.com/author/kingsteelo I now share a kite I recently recieved from one of my homies still doing time...

Yo Kiki,

What's up Dawg? I'm glad you're out there in that free world. I hope you're doing your thing. How are the books going? Man I miss you my nigga! Well let me tell you what's going on with me. I finally got that fat bitch ass Captain at La Salle to ship me to work release. So I got shipped to East Baton Rouge Work Force. Two days later, I got sent to New Iberia work release. Can you believe they kept me there 4 months without giving me a job? They kept telling me some bullshit about D.O.C. not wanting me in work release because of my record, but that was a LIE! Why---because they had about 9 guys there with worst records than mine and they were all working. Next thing I know---they shipped me. I thought I was getting sent to another work release, but them bitches sent me up here to Lake Providence with 8 other dudes who had write-ups and were kicked out of work release.
Man Kiki---out of all the camps I have been to---this by far is the worst I have ever been to. The food is terrible and they feed you small portions. Oh yeah---J.B. told me to ask you about the Freaky Kiki one inch manuever---Lol you a freaky ass nigga dawg. I know them hoes out there loving you. Anyway. there aren't any cellphones in this dorm I'm currently in---where all the pluggers at? Furthermore ain't no drugs here either---this place SUCKS! The only good thing is that I quit smoking---its been 8 months now. J.B. looks out for me when he can but I'm out of shit to sell for food and Joes. I also haven't talked to my son in over a year. You know I got mad love for you dawg---if you can---send me a couple of dollars---anything helps. The store up here is high and these muthafuckas even charge us tax. Write me back asap---I wanna hear from you dawg.

Your Brother,
PACO

There you have it peoples---even a brother trying to change and go to work release can still get railroaded. Instead of building more prisons---these politicians in Louisiana need to change laws. But why would they listen to me? I'm an ex-convict myself...

I am sure a lot of you drive to the city all over---uptown and downtown! Have y'all noticed all these Panhandlers everywhere? It is ridiculous they are on damn near every intersection! Have y'all also noticed that none of these panhandlers are Latino or of Hispanic decent? The majority of these panhandlers are either black or white. You'll see the Latinos outside of Home Depot and Lowes willing to work for money and not looking for handouts. I guess its part of the American culture to look for handouts but in our Hispanic culture---WE'RE WILLING TO WORK FOR IT!!!

So you can say what you want about Mexicans, Hondurans and other Latino's but we not holding up signs on every corner downtown begging for money---WE ARE WILLING TO PROVIDE YOU SERVICE FOR MONEY! Just ask people in New Orleans---the Hispanics rebuilt the city after Katrina destroyed it! So if you gonna call us Migos---make sure you keep in mind---These amigos be putting in work! FUCK DONALD TRUMP AND HIS PLEDGE!!!

Keanu Reeves recently wrote this: "My friend's mom has eaten healthy all of her life. She never consumed alcohol or any 'bad' food, exercised everyday, very limber, very active, took all supplements suggested by her doctor, never went in the sun without sunscreen and when she did---it was for short periods of time. So she pretty much protected her health with the utmost that anyone could. She is now 76 and has skin cancer, bone marrow cancer and extreme osteoporosis.

Now my friend's father bacon on top of bacon, butter on top of butter, fat on top of fat, never and I mean NEVER exercised, always out in the sun getting burnt to a crisp every summer. He basically took the approach to live life to his fullest and not as others suggested. He is 81 and the doctor says his health is that of a young person."

People you cannot hide from your poison. It's out there and it will find you---so in the words of my friend's still barely living mother. She also said, "if I would have known my life was going to end this way---I would have lived it more to the fullest enjoying everything I was told not to!" None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Eat the delicious foods you want, walk in the sunshine, jump in the ocean and smoke the GOOD! Be silly, be kind, be weird---there is no time for anything else!

Those were great words written by one of my favorite actors. Its true too... Only God knows when it is your time to GO! Your diet won't kill you! Yes pork is an unclean animal but what animal is clean? Chicken? Jesus said it ain't what goes in your mouth that make you foul---it's what comes out of it. So take that all you exercise addicts and people who only eat plants... Eat what you want peoples especially down here in Louisiana where all foods are spicy and mostly fried!!!
