UCF Kicker Donald De La Haye Ruled Ineligible Due To Successful Youtube Channel

Youtube

When UCF kicker Donald De La Haye isn’t busy drilling field goals for the Golden Knight’s football team, he’s busy posting videos to his successful YouTube channel. De La Haye’s videos are pretty popular, as his channelDeestroying currently has over 54 thousand subscribers.

But unfortunately for De La Haye, the tyrannical NCAA noticed.

De La Haye has advertisements that run on his videos, which does not make the NCAA nor UCF happy. They claim he’s using his likeness as a student athlete to make money, so they gave him an ultimatum: De La Haye can either stop collecting dough from his YouTube channel or quit playing college football.

After a couple of weeks of back and forth deliberation, the ruling came down today that UCF had decided to rule De La Haye ineligible.

via Orlando Sentinel:

Knights coach Scott Frost said last week during the start of preseason camp De La Haye was a member of the team and the UCF Athletics Association worked to seek an NCAA waiver that would allow De La Haye to keep posting YouTube videos while competing for the Knights.

De La Haye and NCAA officials, however, could not reach an agreement that would keep him in the field. Once De La Haye declined the NCAA’s waiver terms, UCF suspended him to avoid repercussions for working with a a player the NCAA was likely to later rule ineligible.

“Every time I step into that compliance building, I hear nothing but bad news,” De La Haye said in a video posted Monday night on YouTube. “I’m ruled ineligible because I refuse to de-monetize my videos, something that I’ve worked so hard for. Something that I have put blood, sweat and tears into. Something that I eat, sleep, breathe about. … and I get deemed ineligible to continue playing college sports because of it.”

The University of Central Florida released an official statement on the NCAA’s ruling about De La Hay:

“The waiver, which was granted, stated De La Haye could maintain his eligibility and continue to monetize videos that did not reference his status as a student-athlete or depict his football skill or ability. The waiver also allowed him to create videos that referenced his status as a student-athlete or depict his football skill or ability if they were posted to a non-monetized account. De La Haye chose not to accept the conditions of the waiver and has therefore been ruled ineligible to compete in NCAA-sanctioned competition. UCF Athletics wishes him the best in his future endeavors.”

Chalk this one up as another victory of the evil empire of the NCAA. Their day will come soon enough.

All I wanted was to keep inspiring and motivating others through my content. Didn’t know it would cost me my education.

There are SO many things wrong with the NCAA. Exhibit A right here

I want to be the voice that “student-athletes” need!

I’d hate for something like this to happen to another athlete that wants to chase their dream!


Tom Brady’s Wax Figure Looks Nothing Like Tom Brady, And Patriots’ Fans Are Freaking The F*ck Out

Wax figures have always seemed creepy, with their human-like facial experiences and soulless stares. Usually, it’s uncanny how similar the sculpture looks when compared to the actual model or celebrity that it’s molded after. But this piece of wax stands out not for its similarity to Tom Brady, but for it’s obvious difference with the famned New England quarterback.

New York’s famous Madame Tussauds museum unveiled a Tom Brady who looks more like a Todd Broski. Seriously, who is this guy? He isn’t the longtime star of the Patriots? Who can he be? Welp, he’s the museum’s tired shot at creating a lifelike wax figure of the NFL great. They made a realistic figure of someone, but it’s definitely not Tom Brady.

The fear is real, people. That horrifying wax-man should definitely appear in any possible sequel to 2005’s House of Wax. Too bad Paris Hilton won’t be around to face off against Todd…

NBC’s Raul Martinez provides a mash-up of ill-crafted depiction of Tom Brady, from a courtroom drawing to a horrifying Halloween mask to a wax sculpture. You decide which one is the scariest…

Here’s the Hilarious Response from Patriots’ Fans

Damn, fans can be harsh…

That one is a toss up…

GOAT, eh? That’s debatable.

Yup…

TRIGGERED!!!!

Leave the Gronk out of this!

Still laughing, buddy?

Ummmm, no sh*t…

WWE’s Randy Orton Has A Smokin’ Hot Wife That He Never Mentions When He’s On TV

Kim Marie Kessler started off as a huge fan of Randy Orton way before they met a live event in New York. Kessler and Orton quickly hit it off, and they eventually tied the knot on November 14, 2015. A little over a year later, Kessler gave birth to Brooklyn Rose Orton.

Imagine idolizing a celebrity of television and then, all of a sudden, you’re married to that person. This is the story of Kim Marie Kessler who was a diehard fine turned bride of “The Viper.” Surprisingly, Randy was the one who was nervous when they first met. Orton says that Kim brings out his “warm, cuddly side.”

“In my brain, way before I met him, he was my boyfriend,” Kessler said on the WWE Network’s Unfiltered with Renee Young. “So he was all over my house way before I met him.”

In July 2015, Randy decided to pop the question to Kim during a candlelit light dinner on their trip to Bora Bora. Kessler responded by laughing, so Orton didn’t know what to think until she said…”Yes!”

Four months later, this couple was officially wed in Las Vegas, Nevada. The entire family came along for this special moment in the lives of Orton and Kessler.

Both Orton and Kessler have children from previous relationships. Orton has one daughter from a past marriage, while Kim has three boys of her own. Late last November, they brought another child into this world.

Four babies later and Kessler still looks amazing!

The Bengals have been brawling on their way to the 2017-2018 NFL season. Literally. During a practice game, Vontaze Burfict nearly incited a riot when he hit teammate Giovani Bernard in a very sensitive area. Bernard had just returned from an ACL injury, and many players didn’t take kindly to Burfict reckless move. When Burfict Bengals’ running backs coach Kyle Caskey, all hell broke loose…

Here’s a video of just how it all went down…

This lad sees the proof in the pudding. He’s watched the video multiple times, bless his heart…

Maybe the dumbest thing to happen at a training camp practice. But I’ve seen dumber…

If Vontaze Burfict’s cheap shot on Giovani Bernard was a one time occurrence, this might be a forgivable mistake. However, Burfict has a long history of dirty plays in the NFL. Some have even called him “the dirtiest player in the game.” WOOO!

Dirtiest player in the game, huh? Where have I heard that one before? Hmmmmm……

Kevin Allred, a Montclair State University professor who had already caused controvery while teaching at Rutger University, has been fired after he tweeted about the assassination of President Donald Trump.

Twitter via Daily Mail

“Trump is a f*cking joke. This is all a sham. I wish someone would just shoot him outright,” the now deleted tweet read.

This comes after a November 2016 incident where Allred was admitted to Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital to undergo a psychiatric evaluation while employed at Rutgers University. Allred was admitted after he made threats on Twitter ‘to kill white people,’ burn the flag and abuse gun laws.

Despite this, Allred was hired as a professor of Gender, Sexuality, and Women’s Studies at New Jersey’s Montclair State University. Allred gained further notoriety for his class “Politicizing Beyonce.”

Following his tweets, Allred was fired from his position at Montclair State.

Scott was arrested after she had an eight-month-long sexual relationship with a 16-year-old female student. Scott, who accepted a plea deal on Monday, July 31, had faced 70 charges, including four counts of institutional sexual assault of a minor and 34 counts of corruption of minors.

According to a criminal complaint, the 28-year-old Downingtown, Pennslyvania woman had said things to the student like she was buying a new headboard “for our bed.” She called her two-year-old daughter “our baby girl.” She referred to the student as her girlfriend.

A former teacher has pleaded guilty in a sexual abuse case involving a former student at a school for troubled youth on the Main Line. Nina Scott, 28, of Downingtown, Chester County, was also sentenced Monday after pleading guilty to institutional sexual assault involving a 16-year-old student.

Police allege Scott sexually assaulted the girl multiple times between February and October 2016 while she taught at The Village School in Radnor Township. Police say Scott continued the relationship through letters after the girl left the school for another facility.

Authorities were alerted after staff found letters and a journal detailing the sexual acts. School officials fired Scott in December.

Scott will serve a minimum of three months on electronic home monitoring followed by five years of sex offender probation.

Far too often are sports highlights labeled as the greatest you’ll ever see, but this highway robbery by Cleveland Indians outfield Austin Jackson may just be one of the greatest baseball plays I’ve ever seen.

With the Cleveland Indians up 7-5 in the bottom of the fifth, the Red Sox Hanley Ramirez sent a deep shot towards the bullpen, what looked like would be an assured home run.

Until Jackson intervened with one of the greatest robberies you’ll ever see.

And now the reverse, more impressive angle:

And while the Fenway crowd has never been considered the most friendly in sports, the fans were so impressed with Jackson’s play they gave him a standing ovation while it played on the big screen.

Former Notre Dame Football coach Ara Parseghian has passed away at the age of 94-years-old. According to the University’s president, Rev. John I. Jenkins, Parseghian died at 1:30 AM on Wednesday, August 2 at his home in Granger, Indiana.

Parseghian led the University of Notre Dame football team to national championships in 1966 and 1973. He is a member of the National Football Foundation’s College Football Hall of Fame.

Parseghian grew up in Akron, Ohio and played football starting in his junior year of high school. He enrolled at the University of Akron, but soon quit to join the U.S. Navy for two years during World War II. After the war, he finished his college career at Miami University in Ohio, and went on to play halfback for the Cleveland Browns of the All-America Football Conference in 1948 and 1949.

Elected to the College Football Hall of Fame in 1980, Parseghian led the Irish to a 95-17-4 record over his 11 seasons in South Bend, highlighted by the 1966 and 1973 teams that finished 9-0-1 and 11-0-0.

Notre Dame released an official statement on Parseghian’s passing:

“Notre Dame mourns the loss of a legendary football coach, a beloved member of the Notre Dame family and good man – Ara Parseghian,” Father Jenkins said. “Among his many accomplishments, we will remember him above all as a teacher, leader and mentor who brought out the very best in his players, on and off the field.

“He continued to demonstrate that leadership by raising millions of research dollars seeking a cure for the terrible disease that took the lives of three of his grandchildren. Whenever we asked for Ara’s help at Notre Dame, he was there.

“My prayers are with Katie, his family and many friends as we mourn his passing and celebrate a life that was so well lived.”

Just Give Gary Oldman An Oscar For His Portrayal Of Winston Churchill Now

Focus Features

Like most movie lovers, I dragged myself to the theater in the last couple of weeks to see Christopher Nolan’s latest epic, Dunkirk.

Telling the story of the crucial World War II Battle of Dunkirk, Dunkirk details the tremendous effort made by those across Europe to rescue allied soldiers from the soon-to-be enemy control beaches of Dunkirk.

Despite the Allies’ slim chance of success — with Britain even going as far as discussing a conditional surrender to Germany — the Allied forces were able to rescue over 330,000 soldiers.

However, despite Nolan’s frankly excellent and detailed portrayal of how terrifying and miserable those shores must have been, there is one glaring omission from the film, save for the closing words: Winston Churchill.

Naturally, after seeing the movie, I was curious about all things World War II, so I went home and did a little self-research. And during that research, I discovered that this year is coincidentally the year of Churchill in Hollywood.

Counting Dunkirk, three feature films about Churchill and his legacy at British Prime Minister come out in 2017, with one of them looking like it has a real shot at Oscar gold:

Coming from director Joe Wright (Pride & Prejudice, Atonement), Darkest Hour stars Gary Oldman as Winston Churchill and follows his early days as Prime Minister as Hitler closes in on Britain in World War II.

Just based on the trailer, Oldman is essentially a lock for a nomination for at least a couple of reasons. First, the Academy LOVES the portrayal of a legendary figure at the center of a true story (Leo, McConaughey, Redmayne, & Day Lewis have all won in recent years for portrayals of real people). Second, everybody loves Winston Churchill, and finally, Gary Oldman is considered one of the best actors in the world.

All of this — the director, the topic, the actor — lead me to believe that Darkest Hour is going to be one of the best reviewed and most heavily-nominated films of the year.

Good News People! Heavy Drinkers Are Less Likely To Develop Dementia

Ha! Take that all you ‘drinking is bad for you’ people! Chalk one up for the degenerates.

You can chalk one up for the degenerates because a 30-year study conducted by the University of California has concluded that moderate to heavy drinkers are more likely to live to the age of 85 without dementia than non-drinkers. So while the alcohol may make you forget things in the present, in the future you’ll be sharp as a tack.

The study, which ran from 1984 to 2013, tracked more than 1,000 middle-class white men and women in California. The study followed 1,344 adults, including 728 women and 616 men.

via Daily Mail:

Cognitive health was assessed every four years over the course of the 29-year study, using a standard dementia screening test known as the Mini Mental State Examination.

The researchers found that people who drank ‘moderate to heavy’ amounts of alcohol five to seven days a week were doubly likely to be cognitively healthy than non-drinkers. The study defined moderate, heavy and excessive drinking using gender and age-specific guidelines from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism.

‘This study is unique because we considered men and women’s cognitive health at late age and found that alcohol consumption is not only associated with reduced mortality, but with greater chances of remaining cognitively healthy into older age,’ said lead author Dr Linda McEvoy.

The best line of the study goes to lead author and graduate student Erin Richard, who said that ‘this study shows that moderate drinking may be part of a healthy lifestyle to maintain cognitive fitness in aging.’

How old would you guess Sofia Vergara is? Our girl is 45-years-old now, and despite the fact that she’s been in the industry for decades, she’d enjoyed her most success over the last couple of years.

Vergara first rose to prominence while co-hosting two television shows for Spanish-language television network Univisión in the late 1990s. She then began appearing in American movies such as Four Brothers (2005) and two Tyler Perry movies: Meet the Browns (2008) and Madea Goes to Jail (2009).

In 2009, Vergara began starring on the ABC series Modern Family as Gloria Delgado-Pritchett, for which she has been nominated for four Golden Globe Awards, four Primetime Emmy Awards, and seven Screen Actors Guild Awards.

Following Vergara’s success on television, she went on to appear in The Smurfs (2011), New Year’s Eve (2011), Happy Feet Two (2011), The Three Stooges (2012), Escape from Planet Earth (2013), Machete Kills (2013), Chef (2014), and Hot Pursuit (2015).

In 2012, 2013, and 2016, she was the top-earning actress on American television, and in 2014, she was ranked as the 32nd most powerful woman in the world by Forbes.

In her latest photoshoot for Women’s Health ‘naked issue’, Vergara admitted she’s not a fan of working out and that her famous curves prevent her from exercising.

via Women’s Health:

“I don’t know if I’m strong. I have bad knees and very thin bones; I can barely do a pushup. I wish I could be a little more athletic, but when you’re born with these gigantic boobs… I’ve had them since I was 13, and then they got bigger when I was pregnant and had the baby.”

“It’s not about having muscle or cut abs. I don’t have abs because I’m not ‘I need to be like a fit model with a perfect body’ That would take too much effort!”

Personally, we think Sofia looks just fine with or without the exercise.

Sam Miller, a soon-to-be junior forward for the University of Dayton Flyers, is facing assault charges in Greene County, Ohio.

According to Greene County court records, Miller, a 6’9″ 240 pound forward who averages 4.5 points and 2.3 rebounds per game, was arrested in Beavercreek for Disorderly Conduct and drinking underage and was then subsequently taken to the Greene County Jail and placed in a holding cell.

Miller posted a $7,500 bond Monday and pleaded not guilty to an assault charge.

via WDNT:

Another unidentified man was brought in and placed in the same cell. Miller and the other man began fighting. Deputies broke up the fight and Miller was taken to the emergency room to be evaluated. The report states Miller had “a lot of blood coming from his nose and a bump on his forehead.” The report also notes Miller can be seen on video approaching the second man and slapping him.

A police report from the Beavercreek Police Department said on Sunday officers were called to Caddy’s Tap House on the report of an assault. When officers arrived the saw security workers holding Miller down in the parking lot.

Officers approached and Miller continued to try to fight and yell obscenities. Miller was handcuffed and taken to a police car where he refused to get inside. The report says the officer has to place Miller on the seat and go around to the other side of the car and drag him inside. While in the back seat of the police car MIller continued to yell obscenities and kicked the door several times, according to the report.

The altercation began when a bartender told Miller he was cut off. Miller then became angry and knocked glasses off the bar before shoving the bartender. Security was then forced to escort Miller outside.

According to Miller’s attorney Dennis Lieberman, although Miller is due in court today, he will not be there, but sill instead file a written plea. Lieberman released no further comments on the matter.
