Ballsy Move: LeBron James Fined $15K For Grabbing Crotch After Hitting Dagger Shot In Indiana

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Andy Lyons / Getty LeBron James is an equally beloved and hated player, and that’s been true for much of his 19-season career. The Los Angeles Lakers superstar was slapped with a $15,000 fine after grabbing his crotch while sinking a dagger shot against the Indiana Pacers. During a contest on Wednesday (Nov. 24), James and the Lakers took the game into overtime and displayed some heroics on the court with a big-time shot then walked off holding his private area. According to accounts, fans were doing the same towards James and shouting profanity, sparking him to return the favor. “When obscene gestures and language come into it, can’t be tolerated. There’s a difference between cheering for your team and not wanting the other team to win, and things I woul...

LeBron James & Twitter Clown MAGA Vigilante Kyle Rittenhouse For His Fake Tears During Trial

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Pool / Getty We don’t believe you. You need more people. That’s what many people are saying on social media following MAGA vigilante Kyle Rittenhouse’s god-awful attempt to shed tears on the witness stand during his trial on Wednesday (Nov.10). Rittenhouse is currently on trial for shooting three protesters, killing two of them during protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin. During his time in the witness box, Rittenhouse attempted to gain some sort of sympathy by “crying,” but no tears could visibly be seen flowing out of the entitled white teen’s tear ducts. The lame attempt at showing remorse didn’t work on Twitter users watching the shenanigans take place in the Kenosha courtroom. Still, it more than likely worked on the ridiculously biased judge who bec...
