Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James ripped the NFL following a strange controversy relating to a suspended cameraman.
20-year-old videographer Kevin Fitzgibbons, a student at the University of Miami, has formed a close friendship with Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill. Unfortunately for Fitzgibbons, that friendship may have cost him his NFL credentials. Permanently.
In a video posted on his social media page, Fitzgibbons announced that the NFL suspended him for the rest of the 2023 season for participating in Hill’s touchdown celebration in Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers.
Fitzgibbons added that the suspension could be permanent. A remarkably classy Fitzgibbons ended the video by thanking the NFL for the opportunity, adding that he hopes to get another chance to do what he loves.

Per TMZ, the Lakers’ superstar didn’t hold back in ripping the the NFL on his Instagram story:
“Man, this is F’d UP!!!,” James wrote. “Suspended for the year and possibly for good! C’mon NFL! Do better! S*** ain’t that serious.”
It’s obviously an unfortunate development for a young man who’s living out his career dream. Just about anybody in Fitzgibbons’ position at 20 years of age would enjoy participating in Hill’s touchdown celebration there.
Perhaps with a prominent athlete like James speaking out against the suspension, coupled with the ongoing backlash the NFL is receiving, Fitzgibbons will have his credentials restored.
The 29-year-old Hill is having a career year in South Beach, racking up 88 receptions for 1,324 yards and 10 touchdowns through Miami’s first 11 games.
Caitlin Clark Had The Coolest Reaction To Being Called A “White B****” By Pat McAfee

Caitlin Clark has offered a reaction to being called a “White B-” by Pat McAfee, according to Pat Mcafee himself.
The ESPN show host crossed a line on Monday when he referred to Clark as the above while explaining the significant impact she’s had on the WNBA.
“There seems to be this notion that this whole evolution of success and popularity in the WNBA is because of this entire rookie class. I think there’s a chance Chennedy Carter thinks [Sky rookie forward] Angel Reese deserves all this credit. The media talks about how it’s the entire class,” he said on ‘The Pat McAfee Show.’
“I would like the media people that continue to say, ‘This rookie class, this rookie class, this rookie class.’ Nah, just call it for what it is — there’s one white B- for the Indiana team who is a superstar.”
The comment unsurprisingly drew rife backlash, with many calling for ESPN to suspend or fire the former NFL punter.
“Obviously that’s a massive [expletive]-up on my end. I apologize for that. I did reach out to Caitlin Clark through the Fever (public relations), sent an apology and then got a message back that she said it was all good. No blood,” he noted.
“We move forward. And she appreciates us reaching out and apologizing. So that obviously makes me feel a little bit better. But to the people that got pissed off yesterday and offended, I understand. I learned a lot.”
That should be the end of that unless The Worldwide Leader in Sports decides to take action.
