Seth Gilliam Arrested for Driving REALLY Fast, Possessing Marijuana

For someone who plays a priest on television, Seth Gilliam did not have himself a very holy Sunday. The actor (who starred on The Walking Dead Season 5 as Father Gabriel Stokes and who is also known for his role on The Wire) was busted over the weekend for going 107 miles per hour in a 55 miles per hour zone. According to TMZ insider, Gilliam admitted to police officers that he had consumed three beers and a shot of liquor. After searching his vehicle, police also found a joint that was hidden in the arm rest. He later recorded a .107 blood alcohol level. The incident took place around 2 p.m. in Peachtree City, Georgia, with authorities not caring about Gilliam’s hilarious excuse for nearly doubling the speed limit: That he was driving a Chevrolet Cruze rental car and is used to a Jeep. Gilliam was taken taken into custody (for speeding, DUI and marijuana possession) and tossed into Fayette County Jail. He was eventually released after posting a $9,818 bond. And how is this for delicious irony? Gilliam will next play a police officer in a movie titled Police State! View Slideshow: 25 Most Hilarious Mug Shots Ever

Warren Sapp’s NFL Enemies Rejoice In His Fall From Grace

Warren Sapp’s Enemies Rejoice In His Downfall Via PageSix : After Warren Sapp got arrested in Phoenix Monday morning for soliciting a prostitute and assault, the former Tampa Bay Buccaneer was promptly fired by NFL Network. And players the outspoken Sapp blasted over the years are lining up to troll him on Twitter. Former Giants and Saints tight end Jeremy Shockey was fingered by Sapp — citing a source — as the player who ratted on the New Orleans coaching staff for Bountygatge. Shockey denied the charge and the two feuded on Twitter over the accusation. Back in 2011, he questioned the contract the Chargers gave safety Eric Weddle. Four years later, Weddle was happy to remind him of it. Thank you for the motivation the last 4 yrs. E really appreciated it. #whoisinthelineupnow pic.twitter.com/A0nDNMABZi — Eric Weddle (@weddlesbeard) February 3, 2015 Sapp has a long-running feud gong with Michael Strahan over their respective Hall of Fame credentials. Could the former Giants great turned talk-show impresario be the next to chime in? This is actually the second time Sapp had gotten arrested at the Super Bowl. He’d been arrested in South Florida and charged with domestic battery on Feb. 7, 2010 while working as an analyst for the NFL Network. He got suspended but the woman in question didn’t file charges. This time he wasn’t so lucky. Not only schadenfreude, but comedy gold. SMH! Sounds like Sapp doesn’t have too much support after his bad behavior. SMH. Twitter

Cardinals Linebacker Larry Foote Says Marshawn Lynch’s Interview Antics “Send A Bad Message”

Larry Foote Says Marshawn Lynch Is A Bad Influence Marshawn Lynch has been both praised and put down for his signature interview-dodging tactics . But one fellow NFL baller has a different take on the effect Beast Mode’s refusal to play by the rules has on young Black people who look up to him. Via ESPN Arizona Cardinals linebacker Larry Foote strongly criticized Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch on Monday, saying Lynch is sending the wrong message to children. “He always mentions his foundation and what he likes to do for the city of Oakland,” Foote said in an interview with 93.7 The Fan in Pittsburgh. “I’m from the same type of urban environment that he’s from. “The biggest message he’s giving these kids, he might not want to admit it, is ‘The hell with authority. I don’t care, fine me. I’m gonna grab my crotch. I’m gonna do it my way.’” Foote’s point is kids will believe they can act the same as Lynch does. “In the real world, it doesn’t work that way,” Foote said. “It just doesn’t. How can you keep a job? I mean, you got these inner-city kids. They don’t listen to teachers. They don’t listen to police officers, principals. And these guys can’t even keep a job because they say ‘F’ authority.” Hmmm, do you think he’s right BOSSIP fam? Is Lynch just asserting is right to be left the hell alone when he wants…or is he being a “bad influence” on urban kids?
