  • A Ballin’ Debut

    This was an incredible debut episode. I learned a few new things and yearning for more. P is always dropping jewels; just remember to pick them up. MVP & Dwayne’s chemistry is natural (no fabrication just pure authenticity). Congratulations on the new show guys looking forward to more good stories.
