Image via Collin County Sheriff’s Office/Jayne Kamin-Oncea/Getty Images Marquez White Indicted On Assault Charges In Road Rage Incident What part of the game is THIS?!? According to NBCDFW , Dallas Cowboys cornerback Marquez White was arrested in the firearm sanctuary known as Texas for flashing his gun at a racist douchebag who was road raging. As White was making his way home, another motorist allegedly began shouting racist slurs and driving aggressively near him. White says he noticed the man reaching for something in his car and feared it was a gun, in response, White brandished his legal handgun. The racist motorist followed White all the way home and then called the cops on him. White turned himself into police after being notified by the Cowboys that there was a warrant out for his arrest. A grand jury indicted White for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon against the racist…who followed him home… Of all the places in the world, how the HELL is gun-toting Texas going tell this man that he was wrong for upping the llama on a psycho like this driver?? SMH

Chris Bosh Wins Court Battle With Mom Over Home Eviction

Source: FayesVision/WENN.com / WENN Chris Bosh entered into some court drama with his mother, Freida Bosh, after he attempted to evict her from a Texas home he owned. Bosh was countersued by his mother for forcing the eviction, but a judge sided with the former Miami Heats star in the matter. The Blast reports : As The Blast first reported, Freida Bosh sued her son Chris accusing him of backing out of his promise to keep a roof over her head for life. She accused him of having her sign away the deed without her knowledge. Freida sued to stop Chris from evicting her and sought unspecified damages. According to court documents obtained by The Blast, the judge in the case came back with his decision and sided with the NBA star. After hearing arguments from sides, the judge granted Bosh’s motion to dismiss the entire case. The home, which is located in a suburb of Dallas, was the target of a drug raid last December. — Photo: WENN

Bella Thorne Dykes it Down with Tana Mongeau of the Day

There’s some story that is going around, likely released by Bella Thorne, but who fucking pays attention to anything that idiot says, we’re more into focusing on the tits….tits she likes to show off and that have allowed hr to establish a hefty instagram following of idiots who buy whatever garbage she’s selling….probably making her feel very fucking relevant, what her family has tried to instil in her at a young age in what is important in life..what it’s all about…celebrity…people adorning you…it’s great for the ego…until they stop caring and you’re left alone seeking new addictions to fill the void….new addictions that don’t come fast enough… Either way, the story that is going around is that she fucks this french girl on her record label, some youtuber who together know how to get noticed the easiest way….nothing wrong with that. It’s nice to see that when a girl is sold off to the entertainment industry at a young age – before becoming a Disney Kid, turned Instagram exhibitionist who pretends to be a weirdo…instead of going to school she writes such empowering messages to her followers…like TEXAS BOARDER…which I assume is a Texas Boarding house…or a hitch hiker she let move in with her like her homeless looking try hard manipulative weirdo boyfriend…

Joanna Gaines Reveals Baby’s Name, Photo… and More!

He’s here, folks! Yes, we wrote HE . A day after Chip Gaines announced to the world that his wife had given birth to the beloved couple’s fifth child, his wife Joanna jumped on Twitter to provide a few key updates about this bundle of joy. First, see the above pronoun: the HGTV stars are now parents to a little boy. Second, Joanna revealed the boy’s name in her first Twitter post since this miraculous development. “Our baby boy, Crew Gaines, is here & we couldn’t be more in love,” she wrote, expounding as follows: “He made an unexpected (and speedy) entrance into the world two and a half weeks early – which is fitting given he was a sweet surprise from day one. “Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers. We are so grateful.” We’re glad everyone is doing okay after such an early birth. And we’re glad to have a few photos from the big day, starting with this look at the newborn: “And then there were 5,” Chip had written on Saturday in regard to this news, adding on Twitter: “The Gaines crew is now 1 stronger! 10 beautiful toes and 10 beautiful fingers all accounted for, and big momma is doing great!” Joanna, meanwhile, shared numerous images from the day Crew entered the world, joining siblings Emmie Kay, 8, Duke, 9, Ella, 11, and Drake, 13 in the process. She labeled this one her “favorite.” One of my favorite pics a friend showed me after Crew was born. They couldn’t wait to meet their new baby brother , said Joanna of this sweet snapshot. Chip and Joanna confirmed late last year that Season 5 of Fixer Upper would be the show’s last . A few weeks later, they helped explain why by sharing Joanna’s pregnancy with their followers. Ever since, the reality stars have kept social media followers well apprised of her baby bump status and their journey in general. That clearly won’t be changing any time soon, as Joanna also posted the following beautiful image of her and Chip in the hospital: “CONGRATS 2 u and Chips & the other 4 kiddos—May “CREATOR”–GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU ALLL IN THE PALM OF “HIS” LOVING ARMS!! BLSSINGS My favorite fixer-upper!!” wrote one Twitter in response to Joanna’s photographic update. “Now THAT is too dang adorable and precious,” added another. Joanna works as a home designer and Chip a home renovator, but the former is also an author and the couple also owns a restaurant and has its hand in other business ventures related to these industries. They’ve grown in fame due mostly to their humor and chemistry as a couple. To conclude her update, Joanna published this picture down below. It pretty much says it all, doesn’t it? Crew is the couple’s first son who hasn’t been given a name that starts with the letter D. We don’t know why they broke from tradition, but they must have been thinking differently overall in this case. Only 339 boys in the entire United States were named Crew last year. Please join us in sending your heartfelt congratulations to Chip, Joanna and the whole Gaines family! View Slideshow: Chip Gaines: 13 Shocking Facts About the HGTV Star
