Too little, too late sucka! Robert Zimmerman Apologizes For Trayvon Martin Tweets Via HuffPo reports: Earlier this week, George Zimmerman’s brother, Robert Zimmerman ruffled feathers with racially charged tweets that compared Trayvon Martin to an alleged killer. But on Wednesday, the neighborhood watch volunteer’s brother sat down with CNN’s Piers Morgan to apologize for the tweets. Zimmerman originally walked back his comments on Twitter: However, he didn’t completely recant his tweet during his appearance on the show. “I don’t think Twitter is the place to make points about what you recall a year ago, because the recollections that I have, or that we have as a family specifically, are very different than what can be portrayed in 140 characters,” he said. “I realize those were controversial and offensive, and I did publicly apologize for them. I don’t think it was the right thing to do that way. I understand it’s controversial and I apologize for it and I’m sincere about that. I shouldn’t have done it this way.” Robert Zimmerman took to the social network on Sunday, sharing a photo of De’Marquis Elkins, a teen charged with the fatal shooting of a 1-year-old in Georgia, and Trayvon Martin flipping the middle finger. A glimpse of the nature and true attitude of the Zimmerman family. The root cause of the execution of Trayvon .

Is He Right??? Seattle Seahawks Baller Chris Clemons Says It Would Be ‘Selfish’ For NFL Player To Come Out As Gay

Is the NFL ready for an openly gay football player ? Chris Clemons Says It Would Be ‘Selfish’ For NFL Player To Be Gay VIa HuffPo reports: There has never been an openly gay player in the NFL, and Seattle Seahawks defensive end Chris Clemons thinks it might be best if it stays that way. In a series of tweets on Tuesday, Clemons said he didn’t think it would be a good idea for a player to come out of the closet while playing professional football, although he insisted he wasn’t homophobic. “Who on Gods earth is this person saying he’s coming out of the closet in the NFL?” tweeted Clemons. Speculation about the possibility of a professional football player coming out picked up this week after a report by Mike Freeman of CBS Sports. “Based on interviews over the past several weeks with current and former players, I’m told that a current gay NFL player is strongly considering coming out publicly within the next few months — and after doing so, the player would attempt to continue his career,” wrote Freeman. He added that the player believes it is “now time for someone to take this step” but is worried about the reaction of homophobic fans. Clemons then explained that he wasn’t against playing with a gay teammate, but he thought coming out of the closet would be a “selfish act” by the player in question. He then added: This is the new homophobic argument- gays are selfish for foisting their lifestyle choices on us. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight! Do you think the NFL and sports world are ready for gay players?? Twitter

Chit Chatter: Lil Wayne Speaks On His Health And The Real Reason Behind His Seizures

Lil Wayne Speaks On His Seizures For the first time since his widely publicized “near-death” hospitalization a few weeks ago, YMCMB bossman Lil Wayne has spoken out about his health and what caused he seizures. DJ Felli Fel of Power 106 Radio in L.A. recently caught up with the Young Money rapper for a phone interview, during which Weezy revealed that his seizures were nothing new. “The bad news is I’m an epileptic. I’m prone to seizures. This isn’t my first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh seizure. I’ve had a bunch of seizures, ya’ll just never hear about them. But this time it got real bad ’cause I had three of them in a row and on the third one, my heart rate went down to like 30 percent. Basically, I could’ve died, so that is why it was so serious…. But the reason being for the seizures is just plain stress, no rest, overworking myself. That’s just typical me though.” Wayne also spoke in detail about his camp being aware of his condition: “I have people around me. I actually have them so much they already know what to do. They already know how to handle it. Certain times I don’t even go to the hospital, but this time, it was real bad because it was three in a row, and I’ve never had three back to back like that. The third one was so bad and I live in the hills in L.A. So the reason why it was bad was that I live all the way at the top, so you know how hard it is getting down those hills. That was what was so scary about it.” So, according to Weezy, him getting slizzard on syrup like it’s water has nothing to do with these seizures…or maybe he just decided to leave that part out. But surely hearty doses of codeine don’t help. You can check out the entire interview below. What do you think Bossip fam?

You Buyin’? Ricky Rozay “Clarifies” His “U.O.E.N.O” Drug-Induced Sex Assault Lyrics, Praises “Beautiful Queens”

He just dug his grave deeper, and he O.E.N.O it… Rick Ross Explains Drugged Sex Lyrics In “U.O.E.N.O.” Rick Ross has been suffering severe backlash, hate tweets, and even a petition banning his lyrics from the radio as a result of his verse on Rocko’s “U.O.E.N.O.” where he makes a reference to having sex with a woman after he had secretly slipped drugs in her drink. During in interview on Q 93.3 in New Orleans, “The Bawse” kicked his side of the story and attempts to make amends for the “miscommunication”. “There’s certain things you can’t tweet. There’s certain things you want people to hear your voice. I want to make sure this is clear, that woman is the most precious gift known to man. You understand? And there was a misunderstanding with a lyric. A misunderstanding with a lyric, a misinterpretation where the term “r**e” wasn’t used. I would never used the term “r**e”, ya know, in my records and as far as my camp, hip-hop don’t condone that, the streets don’t condone that, NOBODY condones that. I just wanted to reach out to all the queens that’s on my timeline, the beautiful ladies that had been reaching out to me with the misunderstanding. We don’t condone r**e and I’m not with that.” Again, for those of you who haven’t yet heard Rocko’s increasingly-popular tune, Ross raps: “Put molly all in her champagne, she aint even know it…I took her home and I enjoyed that, she aint even know it” Now, we’re not exactly sure where this supposed “misunderstanding” occured, but it sounds pretty evident that Rozay put the ubiquitous “Molly” in a woman’s drink, and she didn’t know it. Then, took her home, “enjoyed” her, and again she was unaware. Now if we are being unfair let us know, but we don’t see much wiggle-room for alternate interpretations of Ross’ words. Are you buying what Rick Ross is selling??? Image via YouTube

Family Full Of Scum: George Zimmerman’s Brother Robert Compares Trayvon Martin To Teen Who Shot Baby In The Face And Says Society Is Right To Label Black People As “Risky”

Robert Zimmerman Compares Trayvon Martin To Teen Baby Killer Younger brother of self-appointed neighborhood watchdog George Zimmerman, who shot and killed unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin a little over a year ago, is still trolling Twitter in desperate attempts to gain support for his scumbag sibling, who is finally headed to trial in a few months to face the music for his unwarranted actions. While it’s no secret that members of Zimmerman’s family and defense team will stop at nothing to paint the slain 17-year-old Martin as a street thug who left triggerman Zimmerman no other choice but the shoot him, Robert Zimmerman may have just reached ‘scum of the century’ level with his latest social media stunt. via Huffington Pos t George Zimmerman’s family has repeatedly spoken out in his defense against his portrayal as a villain in the media. But Zimmerman’s brother, Robert Zimmerman Jr., has created a bit of a firestorm on Twitter with his bizarre defense on behalf of his sibling, comparing Trayvon Martin to an alleged killer. Robert Zimmerman took to the social network on Sunday, sharing a photo of De’Marquis Elkins, a teen charged with the fatal shooting of a 1-year-old in Georgia, and Trayvon Martin flipping the middle finger. As if this picture wasn’t insulting enough to the family of Trayvon, Zimmerman #2 then went on to imply that both cases are prime examples of why society finds “blacks” to be risky. After inevitably starting a conversation around the post, Zimmerman responded to a tweet, challenging the liberal media’s coverage of his brother’s case and questioning why society thinks “blacks mightB risky.” The fact of the matter is this: If Zimmerman, his defense team, his family, and anyone else riding for him really had a solid case, they wouldn’t need to vilify this young man and his memory to prove their point. Do you think Robert Zimmerman has a point in implying that the liberal media often paints a one-sided picture when it comes to young black men and how they are depicted?
