In White Folks News: Craig Sager Jr. Tweets About Deceased Dad’s Pesky Seedless Left Behind Estate Hassling Him

(Photo by Ezra Shaw/Getty Images) Craig Sager’s Son Says He Left Him Out His Will, So Why Is He Going To Court? Drama! A few days ago, Deadspin reported that deceased NBA journalist C raig Sager left nothing to his children from his first marriage. That included his son Craig Sager II, who had given his dad bone marrow, in an attempt to save his life TWICE. Court papers confirmed even though the sportscaster left all of his property to his second wife, Stacy Jo Sager, and excluded the three adult children from his first marriage, his older children are getting called to court over it. His son is annoyed, justifiably and tweeted this: Nothing like getting served, pestered by Sherrifs & taken to court over a Will that myself and my sisters are not only 100% excluded from but do not even have any interest in contesting in the first place. Thanks Dad — Craig Sager II (@CraigSagerJr) January 2, 2018 His older sister, Kacy, issued  a statement  about the situation the following day. “We knew he left her everything. We knew his original will had been revised to exclude us,” she wrote. “And honestly? We didn’t care…. It sucks so damn hard that, after months without communication, our first ‘contact’ with Stacy was through lawyers and the poor sheriffs who had to waste their time serving us.” For all the people who thought he was being petty, airing this out on twitter he clarified: Craig Sager wrote his son out of his will the day after he spent 9 days in Houston trying to save his life a 2nd time. Craig Sager’s son & his 2 sisters that were also written out never contested it, but have been taken to court so they can never contest it. Make sense now? Good — Craig Sager II (@CraigSagerJr) January 10, 2018 I’m not taking anyone to court. I have always loved my dad & I will always work hard to make him proud. He said he wanted to live to see what I contribute to society bc I follow my heart. Right now, it’s time to be a good brother. I spent more than enough time being a good son. https://t.co/9yl6c3OS2E — Craig Sager II (@CraigSagerJr) January 10, 2018 Just trying to get my facts straight. https://t.co/7ZeKXkip5y — Craig Sager II (@CraigSagerJr) January 10, 2018 Yikes, that’s a tough situation.

Exclusive: “To Rome For Love’s” Ashley Russell Said She Went On Show After Footballer Fiancee Cheated

“To Rome For Love” Premieres Jan. 7 On Bravo One of the stars of a new reality show about black women seeking love internationally said she decided to go abroad after ending a toxic relationship with her pro footballer fiancee. “I wanted to be part of this experience because dating, it’s changed. It’s changed a lot,” Ashley Russell said of her new show “To Rome For Love.” “I’m from a small town, and I grew up in a single parent home. Everybody here knows everybody. I wanted to go outside the norm and experience something different.” Russell is among a group of black women on “To Rome For Love,” who have struck out in America’s dating culture and opted to spend six weeks in Rome to explore relationships with Italian men. The Covington, La. native said that after her nine-year relationship with her pro-football playing fiancee ended because of his infidelity, she didn’t have anything to lose. “I fell in love with a man who was very powerful,” Russell said. “So I was always in the back…I was second to his career. I was never secure about myself. It was hard coming from this relationship and trusting that I could find love again.” While Russell was coy on whether she’d found her own “Italian Stallion,” she did say that she had no shortage of admirers and said her time with the show’s relationship expert Diane Valentine, changed how she saw herself. Bravo Media/ Philippe Antonello/ Ernesto Ruscio “Diane made me realize that I was enough,” Russell said. “It’s all about the person that’s inside. It had nothing to do with what I looked like. For a long time, I thought it was about the outer appearance. I thought that would help me find a man. She helped me realize that I’m an amazing woman with a lot to offer.” Russell said that she hopes viewers – and especially black women – will take away from the show that all love starts from within. “I just want them to keep their minds open about the process,” Russell said. “And as black women, I want us to remember that whether it’s Rome, whether it’s Tennessee, or whether its Louisiana, you have to love yourself. For people to love you, you have to accept yourself.”

Khloé Kardashian Has A Boy Name For Her Tummy Full Of Tristan Thompson… But She Still Won’t Confirm If Kylie’s Carrying La Flame’s Fetus

TRF Images / Splash News/David Becker/Getty Images for iHeartMedia Khloe Kardashian Talks In Detail About Her Pregnancy But Won’t Say If Kylie Is Pregnant Khloé Kardashian went on “The Ellen Show,” presumably to discuss her new season of “Revenge Body” but she spent the majority of her time discussing her pregnancy, including how she’s not really eating any extra. She says that she and Tristan haven’t found out the sex of the child yet. Watch the first part of the interview below: Now the part of the interview that has been getting the most attention is that Khloé reveals she and Tristan plan to name their baby Tristan Jr. if it’s a boy, but they haven’t picked a girl name. This will be Tristan’s second son but we’re guessing Jordan wasn’t really feeling like naming her son Jr. considering he left her while she was knocked up to take up with Tristan. To her credit, Khloe says Tristan is a good Dad to Prince and has been very supportive of her during pregnancy. The interview gets hilarious though when Ellen asks if Kylie has been having cravings. Watch below: Kudos to her for staying strong, but at this point, we don’t have to see Khloe’s eyes or hear her denials to know what time it is. Hit the flip to see Khloe answer some “Burning Questions” from Ellen!

He stopped by to discuss his latest endeavor, the Black Santa movement (as evidenced by his sweater).

He says about the new Laker, “[He’s] playing great for a rookie playing for the Lakers with this much attention and pressure. He handles it all well. I think he’s going to be great. It’s just a matter of putting the right pieces [around him]. He’s the type of player – if you put the right pieces around him, potent scorers and people who can actually dominate the game, then he’s the guy who’s going to make all the right decisions.”

LeBron James Calls The School He’s Opening In Akron, OH The Most Important Thing He’s Ever Done

VCG/VCG via Getty Images LeBron Is Very Proud Of The School He’s Opening In His Hometown LeBron James has made it clear that his charitable foundation’s most recent project is the most important thing he’s ever done. The Akron native said on Thursday, “It is. Besides having three kids and marrying my wife, putting my mom in a position where she never has to worry about anything ever again for the rest of her life, this is right up there. Championships, MVPs, I mean, points, rebounds and assists, that stuff is, whatever.” The LeBron James Family Foundation is set to open the “I Promise School” in the fall, and it will be specifically for third and fourth graders in the Akron Public Schools system who are at risk of falling behind. The James foundation’s plan was approved unanimously by the Akron School Board this week, and on top of that, LeBron’s entertainment company will also be producing a documentary on the  opening of the school. The mission with James’ foundation, since 2010, has been to improve reading skills and eventually graduation rates for children in Akron Public Schools. He has said time and time again that he wants to help children who faced the same challenges he did growing up. Shoutout to Bron for being so dedicated to helping his hometown grow!
