I remember asking assistant coach Mo Cheeks, what’s harder to do? Workout after practice or before?? I only asked cuz by time I would get to the gym, Russ was already done in the morning and I usually got mine in after practice. Mo like, “coming in before practice is probably harder”…since then, it’s been my routine….a lot of people looked at the emotions on the court and thought Russ was loud, nah to me, he was quiet and methodical. He lead by example and once the lights were bright, he let everything out and experienced pure freedom. It was inspiring as his teammate and everywhere I went, I seen it inspire people from all walks of life, crazy thing is, he didn’t say much, he just showed up. For 18 years. This basketball life is sacred to us as professionals, what we put into that court means everything. Some of us wish we could go back and do things with a little more intent and some can just wipe their hands and be satisfied with the time spent. Who u gonna be? We know what zero was on…keep inspiring in the next phase of life champ. I don’t care what happens, can’t erase what it was…The first YNs, finals run in our early 20s, all star games, seeing each other get injured and bounce back, the bus rides, plane rides, card games, jokes and arguments, the whole thing, memorable!! …to the whole Westbrook family, Nina, the kids, mama Westbrook, big Russ, Ray, Donnell, everybody from luezinger high and ucla and many more that I’m forgettin, much love and Congratulations on a iconic career.
out. This is my last decision. I’m not going for money. I’m not going for family. What am I really playing for at this point?
I still want to sacrifice. I still want to work. I still want to grind. I still want to compete, to win and to have a chance at the feeling of winning
Thank you guys for everything.
From the TONS of creators that reached out & shows love, to the most solid community I can possibly ask for
Every retweet. Every comment. Every like. I truly felt the love.
Y’all spammed Free Sage… today SAGE FREE. THE CHANNEL IS BACK!! 🦾💯🙌🏾
Youtube has "finalized" the result of my channel's (TSO_Sage) monetization to be removed...
They made their initial decision overnight and without warning. Since then, I have not been provided with any evidence or examples of my channel committing any violations placed upon it. Despite requesting for these details several times, they have still been denied or ignored altogether. This is simply because they do NOT have a legitimate answer!!
Whether this is a result of a flawed AI system or intentional targeting, a mistake has clearly been made & "finalized" much too soon.
Please fix this!! @YouTube@YouTubeCreators@TeamYouTube
If this were black people, there would be tweets all over this site about how violent black people are, and how they cant be in society, followed by an Elon musk "Yup" retweet.
So if this is an actual human, you’re telling me that YouTube has AI detection program set in place that can strip monetization from any channel at any moment… yet there is a 90 day waiting period before an appeal process or human review is possible, despite it being completely false?
I have provided proof of said mistake & you’re telling me to wait 90 days. I have bills & things that need to be take care of, yet without warning & being completely false, you can just take all of that away?
And again, I don’t know where you’re getting this 90 day period from. The website itself has allowed me to submit an appeal, even encouraging it, without once even mentioning a 90 day suspension. You are now telling me something completely different & to disregard all of that. This is very confusing and again, needs to be addressed as soon as possible!
I am waking up this morning to find out that my channel TSO_Sage, is "no longer eligible for monetization" due to "Misleading family content"
I can't even begin to express how wrong such a claim is, especially when it comes to a reaction channel like the one I've established. When uploading videos, I even make sure in the audience tab "No, it's not made for kids" is always selected. In my 6 years as a creator, and many more as a user/viewer, I have never even heard of a scenario like this before. Certainly my channel is NOT the blueprint or even remotely a violator of said guidelines.
Please stop using AI detection and have a HUMAN manually fix this obvious error immediately.
