Lmao sportswear brands panicking because Tyson didn't wear socks is gold. They really thought the market would crash because he wanted a retro look.

I really, really can't get behind the 'redemption' arc for a convicted rapist. 😤 Being a legend doesn't excuse the violence he inflicted on women.

I disagree with framing the Robin Givens interview as just a humiliation for him. She looked terrified! 😥 It feels wrong to dismiss her claims like that.
