Bill Polian Refuses To Vote Lamar Jackson To All-Pro Team

Bill Polian continues refusing to admit Lamar Jackson’s talent. After passing for a league-high 36 touchdowns, crushing Mike Vick’s rushing record for a QB, and leading the Ravens to a 14-2 record, Lamar Jackson is still being slept on by Bill Polian.  It seemed like Jackson was a lock for a unanimous selection as a first-team All-Pro until the results came in and Polian, and two of his SiriusXM colleagues, chose Russell Wilson instead, as noticed by Pro Football Talk. Polian infamously said Jackson should enter the draft as a wide receiver rather than a quarterback, an opinion he walked back as Jackson proved...

Kanye West’s "Yeezus" Was Almost Called "Thank God For Drugs"

He revealed the original cover art, as well. While working for Kanye’s creative content company, Donda, as his art director, Joe Perez was involved with the creative conceptualization of the cover art for Kanye‘s album in 2013, which was not always named Yeezus. On Sunday, Perez, who has also designed for artists like Nick Minaj, Lil Wayne, and Pusha-T in the past, revealed the very different name Kanye originally chose for his sixth studio album.

Isaiah Thomas Ejected Less Than 2 Minutes Into Game For Shoving Ref

Was there malicious intent here? Friday night, Wizards’ point guard Isaiah Thomas was ejected within the first two minutes of the game against the Trail Blazers for shoving an official.  During a tie-up with Carmelo Anthony, Thomas put his hand on referee Marat Kogut, perhaps incidentally, and was subsequently ejected. After review, the call was upheld. ESPN reports that crew chief Mark Ayotte explained the decision in a pool report saying, “He made physical contact with the referee. It was definitely just a push during the dead ball contact with the referee.” “I mean I had a different view of it obviously,” Wizards...

Don Imus Insulted Her Team in 2007, Now Coach Offers Condolences To His Family

The controversial radio host passed away on December 27. Over 12 years ago, shock jock Don Imus was fired for his on-air comments about the Rutgers women’s basketball team. During the NCAA Women’s Basketball Championship, Imus was commenting on the players being “rough girls” because they had tattoos. His executive producer called the women, nine of whom were black, “hardcore hos.” Imus quipped they were “nappy-headed hos” before the producer replied the teams looked like “jigaboos versus the wannabes.” The latter was not only a racially-charged insult but a reference to Spike Lee’s classic 1988 film School Daze.
