Fm L9szXoAUrO67

Shannon Sharpe addressed his courtside altercation at the Lakers/Grizzlies game on the most recent episode of Undisputed.

“I want to apologize for my behavior,” Sharpe said. “For the last six and a half years, I’ve preached accountability and responsibility. And I take full responsibility for what transpired. It does not matter what Dillon Brooks said or how many times he said it.”

The hall of fame tight end added: “Me being the responsible person. Me having the platform that I have and having so many people look up to me, I was wrong. I should have lowered the temperature in the arena. Instead, I turned the temperature up, and I let it get out of hand.”

He then apologized to Lakers owner Jeanie Buss, to the Lakers organization, and to the fans for “any harm or unwanted attention” he brought. He even apologized to Dillon Brooks and Ja Morant.

For those who might’ve missed it, Shannon Sharpe got into it with what seemed like the whole Memphis Grizzlies team on their Friday night game against the Lakers. Sharpe apparently told Dillon Brooks he was too small to guard LeBron, to which Brooks responded “f**k you.” Sharpe responded, and that’s when the whole team got involved.

Shannon Sharpe Apologizes For Grizzlies Scuffle: Watch

If you watched basketball over the weekend, you probably already know about Shannon Sharpe and his run-in with the Grizzlies. Sharpe is a huge Lakers fan and he showed his support Friday night as the team took on the Grizz. Shannon was courtside at Crypto.com Arena, and subsequently, things got out of hand.

In the video down below, Sharpe could be seen getting into it with Dillon Brooks. Overall, it escalated quickly as players like Steven Adams and Ja Morant came over. Furthermore, Tee Morant, Ja’s father, also joined the scrum. In the end, Tee and Shannon made up, while Dillon Brooks continued to shade Sharpe to the media.

Shannon Sharpe Speaks

Following this altercation, fans were waiting to see what would happen on Undisputed. Many expected Skip Bayless to roast Sharpe for his actions. However, Sharpe took a much more apologetic tone. He spoke for three minutes about the subject and looked at the camera while doing so. Overall, he seemed to be disappointed in himself.

“I want to apologize,” Sharpe said. “For the last six and a half years I have preached responsibility and accountability and I take full responsibility for what transpired. It does not matter what Dillon Brooks said or how many times he said it. Me having the platform that I have and having so many people look up to me, I was wrong.”

For the most part, fans seemed to be on Sharpe’s side in this whole debacle. After all, the Grizzlies have proven to be a very difficult team to like, especially with the way they talk in the media. Regardless, Sharpe opted to be the bigger person in the situation.

Shannon Sharpe & Ja Morant’s Dad Reconcile After Fight

Shannon Sharpe and Tee Morant, father of Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant, reconciled their differences after a fight. Moreover, they weren’t the only ones involved in a heated argument after the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Grizzlies 122-121 last Friday (January 20). Other recognizable faces in the incident were Steven Adams and Ja Morant himself.

However, the cause of this altercation is still unclear. In clips swirling around social media, it’s hard to make out what everyone is shouting at each other. Even a tense moment can’t drown out the music blasting from the stadium speakers.

Still, another video published shortly after showed Sharpe and Tee Morant embracing. While it’s not certain that the clip was recorded after the fight ended, that seems to be the narrative online. What’s more is that people reacting to the fight initially were putting everything on Shannon. Moreover, his physique is about as strong as his words. Recently, he made some sobering observations about Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott. People are all for his unfiltered perspectives.

“Shannon stronger than anybody in that building they better leave him alone….Ray Lewis will tell you that!!” one user wrote. Another shared, “I got my money on Shannon. Anybody with a lisp like that at his age will smoke yo boots.” Some commenters even cheekily tied it into his show with Skip Bayless. “‘I’m sorry but you would’ve had no shot against Steven Adams’ – Skip on Monday,” one user commented.

Meanwhile, LeBron James reacted to the whole ordeal hilariously, at least in part. While he made no comments on the situation itself, his description of Unk was quite expressive.

“If ‘I Wish A Muthaf#ck* Would’ was a person! MOOD,” James wrote. “Unk VIBES!”

Moreover, their relationship is as strong as ever. Sharpe brought out the “GOAT James” mask on Undisputed when talking about LeBron’s 48-point-performance against the Houston Rockets just a few days ago.

Still, what do you think of Shannon Sharpe and Tee Morant making up after a rowdy fight? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, come back to HNHH for the latest NBA news.

Druski Reveals Why He Prefers LeBron Over Michael Jordan

Druski is one of the biggest comedians out there right now. His sketches are absolutely hilarious, and he has managed to create a massive following for himself. Subsequently, he has become extremely recognizable, and a ton of stars have tried to work with him.

Moving forward, Druski has the potential to become a massive movie star. Overall, he is beloved and he is showing no signs of slowing down. Recently, he even got to kick it with Shannon Sharpe on the former football legend’s show, Club Shay Shay.

Druski Chooses Sides

During his appearance on the show, he talked about a plethora of topics. However, one of the more interesting ones that came up involved the NBA. As someone who grew up in the LeBron generation, Sharpe felt it was necessary to ask the comedian who he prefers between James and Michael Jordan.

Interestingly enough, Druski picked LeBron James. Although, he did give an interesting reason that goes beyond the basketball court. Essentially, Druski doesn’t like the way MJ seems to “avoid black people.” Furthermore, the comedian noted that black people bought all of MJ’s clothes and shoes, although the Bulls legend rarely reciprocates the love. Meanwhile, LeBron is the opposite way.

This is a criticism that has been levied on Michael Jordan in the past. After all, Jordan was rumored to say “Republicans by sneakers too” which ultimately speaks to where MJ’s head is at most of the time. Either way, Sharpe appreciated Druski’s honesty, but more importantly, he was happy to see LeBron getting some love.

We’re sure the comedian’s answer is going to cause some debate here. Let us know how you felt about what he had to say, in the comments section down below. Additionally, keep it locked to HNHH for the latest news from around the sports world.

Shannon Sharpe Offers Sobering Dak Prescott Prediction

Shannon Sharpe sits across from Skip Bayless every weekday morning. Overall, he and Skip have some great chemistry, even when they appear to be fighting. Sharpe certainly makes the show entertaining, and his anti-Cowboys rhetoric always seems to annoy Bayless.

On Monday night, Sharpe had to watch the Cowboys systematically destroy the Buccaneers. Dak Prescott led his team to a 31-14 victory that Cowboys fans are still talking about. Now, however, the road becomes a lot tougher as they will face the San Francisco 49ers in the Divisional Round.

Shannon Sharpe Hot Take

Today, Sharpe and Bayless got to discuss the Cowboys and their chances heading into Sunday’s game. As you can imagine, Bayless had a positive outlook of how things will go. Although, Sharpe was very quick to set him straight, especially as it pertains to Dak Prescott.

“I’ve seen enough and know who Dak is, he’s a rollercoaster. I don’t expect to see what he did in Tampa on Monday,” Sharpe said. Needless to say, Sharpe doesn’t seem to have much confidence that Dak can lead his team over one of the best defenses in football.

Bayless’ positive outlook included the tweet below, in which he said “The Dak I saw in Tampa suddenly had complete command of that position like I haven’t seen before. I believe he’ll carry the momentum over and play a clean and commanding game.”

Bayless sure does love his Cowboys, and he always seems to be lying to himself about how well they will play. If fans remember, the Cowboys lost to the 49ers last season and that’s when they were favored. Now that they are underdogs, their chances are even worse.

Druski Admits To Having A Crush On Ice Spice

You miss every shot you don’t take, and Druski is making his crush on Ice Spice known. The comedian has been lighting up the Hip Hop scene and has even shared the stage with several of our favorite artists. His good friend Jack Harlow has supported him at every turn, and thanks to Druski’s success, he’s launched other business ventures.

It’s common to find hilarious videos of Druski on social media, and often, he pops up on Livestream with his famous peers. Last month, he was seen with GloRilla and later Ice Spice. According to a new interview on Club Shay Shay, he’s trying to get to know the “Munch” rapper better.

“That’s who it was. Ice Spice. I was trying to get with Ice Spice,” Druski told Shannon Sharpe. “That was me. I still ain’t got a chance. I mean, I tried.”

Sharpe tried to encourage the comedian. “You can get her info!”

Druski replied, “Come on, man. You gotta let it ride. Gotta let it come to you. So, right now, I’m in that process. Shawty, if you watchin’, I’m here.”

Sharpe was under the impression that Druski at least had Ice Spice’s phone number.

“Nah, I don’t got her number,” the comedian answered. “How I said it—you gotta let it come to you ’cause at the end of the day, I’m the prize!”

Sharpe added that Spice is also a prize, so she and Druski could be two prizes coming together.

Druski played it cool and joked, “Yeah, she’s somethin’. She got a little something on her.” He was then asked if he was just kidding around or if he was seriously interested in the “In Ha Mood” rapper.

“I really would—I like shawty,” he said. “I ain’t—that’s why I told her, it ain’t even about the music and all that. To me, you gon’ get me.”

We’ll have to see what Ice Spice has to say, but as we wait, check out the clip above and the full interview below.

Shannon Sharpe Brings Back “GOAT James” Mask: Watch

Shannon Sharpe is a massive fan of LeBron James. If you have been to a Lakers game in Los Angeles, you have probably seen Shannon at a match. He and LeBron are good friends at this point, and overall, Sharpe is always going to have his back.

Moreover, this is especially important when you consider how Sharpe has daily debates with Bron’s biggest hater, Skip Bayless. Skip is always looking for ways to take down LeBron, however, Sharpe is there to stop him. On Tuesday, Sharpe had another great opportunity to do just that.

Shannon Sharpe Respects Greatness

While speaking on Undisputed, Sharpe got to talk about LeBron’s recent performance against the Houston Rockets. He helped his team win the game, and he did it by scoring 48 points. Consequently, Sharpe decided to pull out his infamous GOAT James mask for the first time in a while.

“Since LeBron has turned 38, he’s averaging 37-10-9?! Leading the league in points, rebounds & assists in that stretch!” Sharpe said. For those of you who may not remember, GOAT James is an alter ego of sorts that Sharpe has used over the past few years. Skip hates the character, although he had no choice but to just watch this morning.

In the future, it is very doubtful that Bayless will ever consider LeBron to be the GOAT. However, James will always have some fans in his corner, which is also a good thing. At the end of the day, when you have someone like Sharpe hyping you up, you are always going to be having a good time.

Shannon Sharpe Gives His Honest Thoughts On Stetson Bennett

Shannon Sharpe was watching the National Championship game last night, just like millions of sports fans. As many of you know by now, the Georgia Bulldogs won their second-straight title. This came against the TCU Horned Frogs, who were awful throughout the game. In fact, the final score was 65-7.

Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett did a great job as he scored four touchdowns and over 300 yards. The 25-year-old is now graduating, and he could very well be on his way to the NFL. However, he has not received the hype you would expect from a two-time National Championship winner.

Shannon Sharpe Reacts

Overall, Bennett just isn’t that type of recruit. However, Sharpe does see some potential for the Georgia star. On Undisputed, Sharpe made it clear that other back-to-back champions haven’t had much NFL success. Although this is the case, he still thinks Bennett deserves an invitation to a team’s training camp.

“I don’t know if he’ll be drafted, but I do believe that based on his resume, someone will give him an opportunity to come into camp as a street free agent and see what he can do,” Sharpe said.

If Bennett does get drafted, it will likely be in the later rounds. This doesn’t necessarily mean defeat though, as Tom Brady became the best player ever despite being taken in the sixth round. Sure, Bennett is not Brady, however, he has proven himself to be a winner. In the NFL, being a leader who can win ball games goes a long way, and some teams out there could use that in the locker room.

Let us know where you think Bennett should go, in the comments section down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the sports world.

Waka Flocka Reflects On Being Shot: “That Was A Blessing”

There were plenty of gems pulled from Shannon Sharpe’s interview with Waka Flocka. The rapper is often candid during such conversations, and he didn’t hold back on Club Shay Shay. Waka spoke about YSL’s RICO case and even addressed the tragic passing of Takeoff. Additionally, he also touched on being shot 13 years ago during a robbery in Atlanta.

Reports stated Waka was at a car wash when someone demanded the rapper hand over his jewelry. During the incident, the armed thief fired off one shot. The bullet reportedly traveled through Waka’s shoulder, arm, rib, and lung. He recalled thinking his assailant would have to kill him for his chain.

As terrifying as the event and recovery may have been, Waka looks at how the moment changed his life for the better.

“Yeah, I still go to the car wash,” he told Sharpe. “I know what happened, definitely, 100 percent.”

“I thank God for that, too. That was a blessing, because that weekend, I was making like a quarter million. I was going to buy some bricks and some pounds. That’s God that stopped me. I thank God because I was arrogant as f*ck.”

He added that the old version of himself “died that day.”

[WATCH] Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless Argue Over Damar Hamlin Tweet During Opening of ‘Undisputed’

Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless Argue Over Damar Hamlin Tweet During Opening of 'Undisputed'

Skip Bayless continues to be on the hot seat. A day after his absence, Shannon Sharpe returned to the Undisputed desk on Fox Sports 1, and the fireworks immediately went off between him and Bayless.

In a monologue, Sharpe was explaining his absence and stated he didn’t agree with Skip’s tweet. “Skip tweeted something and although I disagree with the tweet, and hopefully, Skip will take it down…”

Skip would interject and state, “Time out — I’m not going to take it down because I stand by what I tweeted.”

The two would go back and forth briefly before Shannon deflected to the show’s moderator to continue forward with the show.

You can see the moment below.

Shannon skipped the Tuesday broadcast, according to TMZ, because he was “upset” with Skip Bayless’s offensive Damar Hamlin tweet, in which he questioned why the NFL would postpone a crucial game so late in the season. The outlet added that the network is uncertain as to whether Sharpe will report for duty on Wednesday.

Due to his tweet, Skip has received a lot of negative feedback from fans and athletes on social media. Even some have urged for his dismissal. In the episode that aired on Tuesday, Bayless took the opportunity to retract his remarks and explain his intentions.

“I apologize for what we’re going to set out to do here today, if it offends anyone, because we’re gonna try to do the show pretty much as we usually do the show. I’ll admit up front, I’m still shook up by what happened last night to Damar Hamlin,” Bayless said. “In fact, I’m still wrecked. In fact, I’m not sure I’m capable of doing this show today. After barely sleeping on it last night, I decided to give it a try.”

He added, “We wrestled through much of the night whether to even do a show today because it felt like in our mind, we almost can’t win with this. Because the last thing we want to try to do is come off as insensitive to what this young man is going through in a life-or-death situation. … As this show goes on, we’re going to try and talk about a little bit of sports, but we’re going to continue to talk about what happened to this young man last night and try to sort back through it with help from you and the audience.”
