Coach Prime, aka Deion Sanders, and producer Tracey Edmonds are calling it quits.
Over the weekend, Sanders and Edmonds announced the end of their four-year engagement and 11-year relationship amicably in a now-deleted post originally shared on her Instagram account.
“To EVERYONE who has been there for us, supported us, and shown us love…We have mutually decided that it is best for us to move forward in life AS FRIENDS and have made this decision with love in our hearts, respect for each other, and appreciation for the time we’ve shared together,” the couple wrote per The Grio. “Please keep us in your prayers as we go through this transition. Thank you for being there for us ALL THESE YEARS! We love you and appreciate you SO MUCH!”
Sanders cosigned the post in the comment section: “Love u Tracey and You’ve been a true blessing to me. I appreciate the times we’ve shared and [the] laughs we’ve had,” Sanders wrote under the post. “You are an amazing woman and a tremendous mother. God bless u with every endeavor and every step u take. You are HER. Tracey-Mack !!!”
Edmonds put a post thanking everyone for reaching out to her, writing in the caption, “Fam, thank you for all of your beautiful posts, messages, texts, and calls. Even though I’m unable to get back to you right now, KNOW that I’m grateful for them. Your love, support, and kindness REFUELS me! Sending everyone LOVE!”
How The Couple Met
The couple met in 2012 at a movie premiere, and Edmonds initially connected with Sanders, intending to produce a reality TV show about former NFL player turned college football coach.
They “grew quite fond of each other and ended up dating,” according to People magazine, and maintained a relationship despite the long distance due to their busy lives.
The couple didn’t let the distance hamper their relationship.
“[We are] at the age [56] and stage where I don’t think neither of us needs a lot,” Sanders told People. “It’s a blessing, but we understand each other because we’re busy in our own right.”
Social Media Got Jokes
Users on X, formerly Twitter, don’t take anything seriously and have been reacting to the news of the couple’s split. Noticeably, folks have been using the moment to take shots at Coach Prime, who hasn’t had the best first season at Colorado University since starting on a good foot.
“Dang @DeionSanders even Tracey jumping in the portal,” one post on X hilariously read.
Lol, damn.

Rockstar Games set a date for the world to come together and trailer 1 for GTA 6. Those plans changed thanks to some crypto dweebs who leaked it, forcing the game studio to drop it a day early.
Remember when things used to feel like events? That’s no longer the case, with everything seemingly “leaking” now.
Social media was set ablaze when the GTA 6 trailer leaked on X, formerly Twitter. The video was a rip with a crypto dweebs logo plastered across it, but that didn’t stop eager gamers from watching it.
The account that initially leaked the trailer was quickly suspended, with Rockstar Games working hard to pull the videos down.
Eventually, Rockstar Games confirmed the leak and said you know what, f*** it and hit the go live button so fans could enjoy the trailer as it was intended to be viewed.
“Grand Theft Auto VI continues our efforts to push the limits of what’s possible in highly immersive, story-driven open-world experiences,” said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games. “We’re thrilled to be able to share this new vision with players everywhere.”
What Does The Trailer Confirm?
Source: Rockstar Games / GTA 6
The 1:30 trailer, backed by Tom Petty’s “Love is a Long Road,” confirms the game will feature its first female protagonist, Lucia.
It will have a Bonnie and Clyde vibe, return to Vice City, and take the ratchet shenanigans we loved in GTA V to another level.
“Grand Theft Auto VI heads to the state of Leonida, home to the neon-soaked streets of Vice City and beyond in the biggest, most immersive evolution of the Grand Theft Auto series yet,” a press release read.
The game is also dropping on PS5, Xbox Series S | X, PC is still a mystery.
X Users Are Losing Their Sh*t
Of course, social media is on fire, and the reactions to the new GTA 6 trailer are all over the place.
Some gamers are reacting to the game coming out in 2025, meaning they will have to wait a bit longer to get their hands on the game.
Other reactions are just pure jokes about what Rockstar Games will do to the leaker when they eventually find out who the culprit behind leaking the most highly anticipated game trailer of the year was.
We know Rockstar Games will bring the hammer down on that clown.
But until then, if you haven’t done so already, watch the trailer for GTA 6 below and hit the gallery for all the hilarious reactions.

Peacock has Twisted Metal, Paramount+ has Halo, Netflix has Sonic The Hedgehog and Castlevania, and now Amazon is looking to get in on video game turned television property with Fallout. Now we know what we can expect from the upcoming series.
Amazon has dropped the first trailer for the upcoming series, and it looks like it will be very faithful to the popular Bethesda video game of the same name, accurately capturing the post-apocalyptic feel fans of the game love.
Like in the games, the adventure begins for a young vault dweller, Lucy (Yellowjackets’), who steps outside the comfort of her vault to explore a vast wasteland 200 years after a massive nuclear explosion changed the world forever.

Lucy will also encounter mutated creatures, settlements born from the destruction of massive cities, the iconic militant Brotherhood of Steel clan, an uprising in another vault, shootouts, and the iconic canine companion.

The show, which arrives on Amazon Prime on April 12, 2024, also stars Walton Goggins as Fallout mainstay Ghoul, Aaron Moten as Maximus, Kyle MacLachlan (Twin Peaks), and Zach Cherry (Severance).

Westworld’s Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy will serve as executive producers along with Bethesda boss Todd Howard.
The trailer for Fallout finally arrived after the show was first announced in 2020. Amazon officially got the ball rolling on the show, dropping teases here and there.
Fallout will definitely be on our watchlist.

Mark your calendars! Gamers are excited after Rockstar Games dropped the date for the first trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6.
After years of trending on social media for absolutely no reason at all, opening X and seeing GTA 6 in the top trending topics finally means something now.
While not saying much, Rockstar Games announced trailer 1 for what is easily the most highly anticipated game in the world, which will be arriving on December 5.
Proving just how popular this game is, just announcing the trailer’s release date sent social media into a tizzy.
“Fast forwarding to Tuesday,” Sony’s official X, formerly known as Twitter account, wrote.
The trailer will also arrive two days before The Game Awards, shutting down the theory that Geoff Keighley had GTA 6 as a big reveal during the show.
What We Know So Far Ahead of GTA 6 First Trailer Release
While we know when to expect the trailer, we still have no idea what this game will look like outside of the massive leak that showed footage from a pre-build.
Rumors also suggest that GTA 6 will see the game return to Vice City, which is Grand Theft Auto’s version of Miami, featuring a female protagonist as one-half of the playable characters for the first time, drawing inspiration from Bonnie and Clyde and one of the most extensive “evolving” maps in GTA history.
Like everyone else, we are excited to see what Rockstar Games has been taking its sweet time to build since GTA V, which has seen life on three console generations since its initial release in 2013 on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 console, making it one of, if not the most profitable pieces of media ever.
Until the day the trailer drops, you can see more reactions in the gallery below.

Shannon Sharpe let his lust for Megan Thee Stallion get the best of him.
The ESPN First Take co-host and Pro Football Hall of Famer is in hot water with Megan Thee Stallion’s fans. During the recent episode of his podcast Nightcap with fellow former NFL player Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson.
In the clip that has since gone viral, Sharpe didn’t bite his tongue at all when talking about his attraction to Megan Thee Stallion and sharing in explicit detail what he wants to do the Houston rapper sexually.
“I’d have her stretched out like quarter to three,” Sharpe said before adding: “I do it three ways, Ocho: deep, hard and continuously … I’d have her opening up like saloon doors.”
The fallout from 55-year-old former professional comments was swift. One person wrote on Instagram, “Love Shannon, but this is wildly inappropriate,” they wrote. “He is employed by ESPN. They don’t play that, he needs to tone it down on these types of comments. It’s not the 90s anymore.”
“In light of all the lawsuits, I just want men to chill for a min. Like take a step back from the overt/public sex talk and stories and find something safe to chat about,” another commenter said.
“Giving perv vibes. Please go find something else to do cause this ain’t it,” another person wrote. “Shannon is getting a bit too comfortable. He should relax, he’s giving old & creepy,” another added.
Shannon Sharpe Apologizes To Megan Thee Stallion
Sharpe has seen the criticism and used his Nightcap podcast to address it. While he was still on the joking tip with Ochocinco, he apologized to Megan Thee Stallion.
“I’ll tell you what. If Meg had any problem with anything that I’ve said, let me take the time to say I’m sorry, I apologize,” Sharpe said. Ocho added, “And we love you.”
Megan Thee Stallion has yet to respond, but we’re sure she won’t pay it any mind. Sharpe’s comments come after the “Cobra” rapper took to Instagram to address the scrutiny about her love life and her love for sex.
“It’s like, nobody be listening to my music. They be like, ‘Megan Thee Stallion, I cannot believe she likes to have sex! I cannot believe Megan Thee Stallion f***s!
Thee Stallion also claims she is being stingy with her goodies from now on and is turning over a new leaf.
“But no, I am turning over a new leaf. And I’m stingy with the coochie cat. I’m not a freak anymore. Oh my God. I’m done. I’m done with the streets. So toxic in the streets. I’m tired with the streets.”
We hear you Meg.

It was almost a family tussle between T.I., Tiny, and their son, King Harris, at Sunday’s Atlanta Falcons home game.
What was supposed to be a memorable moment for rapper T.I. turned into a messy viral moment. The Harris family joined their patriarch, T.I., along with other ATL Hip-Hop stars to celebrate Hip Hop 50 at the Atlanta Falcons against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday.
The day began as a proud moment for the T.I., who led the Falcons out onto the field with King and Tiny sharing posts on their Instagram Stories of them on the field.
That quickly got put on the back burner when a video of a dispute between the 19-year-old and his parents found its way onto the internet.
King Harris Stands On Business
According to Complex, the cause of the argument remains unclear, but in the video, King can be seen yelling at presumably his folks, “You cappin’, n***a … I know you though.”
Tiny then gets in her son’s face and shoves him, yelling at him to “shut up,” King then responds, “What’s wrong with y’all? Why ya’ll doing that to me? Y’all know me, you know I stand on business. Why would you let someone play with me like that?”
T.I. can be heard in the background telling his son, “You are embarrassing yourself and your family.”
The camera view shifts, and it appears T.I. confronts his son with King shouting, “Get off me n****.”
In a series of now-deleted Instagram Stories posts, King doubled down on his behavior, saying, “I Stand on. BUSINESS DONT GIVE A FUCK WHO U ARE … IDGAF WHO U ARE MF CANT PLAY WIT ME N MY FACE NOT GOIN FOR DA IM A GROWN ASS MAN NOW … If ima mistake say dat stop making da world think u fw me when u DONT.”
As to be expected, social media decided to use the opportunity to drop jokes and claim that King’s outburst with his parents was a cry for help.

As we get closer to the big reveal of Grand Theft Auto 6, the hype for the highly-anticipated video game is so thick you can cut it with a knife.
GTA VI is trending on X, formerly known as Twitter, but this time around, the energy is much different. Unlike the other times the long-awaited sequel to GTA V trended, there is actual excitement now because a trailer for the game is on the horizon.
Rockstar Games confirmed a trailer is on the way following the equivalent of Woj Bomb in the video game space due to Bloomberg’s Jason Scheirer coming through with slam dunk reporting claiming the studio was dropping a trailer for the game.
In a post shared on X, formerly known as Twitter, Rockstar Games president Sam Houser wrote:
“We are very excited to let you know that in early December, we will release the first trailer for the next Grand Theft Auto. We look forward to many more years of sharing these experiences with all of you.”
Gamers React To GTA VI’s Trailer Coming In December
With that in mind and Thanksgiving and Black Friday now behind us, gamers have taken to Elon Musk’s trash platform to express how excited they are about GTA VI’s announcement being on the horizon.
“The only thing on my mind right now is #GTAVI December hurry up!!! Its gonna be game of the generation bruh….,” one post on X read.
Another post read, “I hope we get that #GTAVI trailer Friday but I’m expecting nothing until next week at least. Regardless, I can’t believe we’ve made it this close.”
We feel both posts and wonder when the trailer will drop in December.
There is a strong chance it could happen during the upcoming Game Awards.
We shall see.
Until then, hit the gallery below for more reactions.

If you’re a political hopeful or veteran hoping for a Cardi B endorsement, it’s not coming. The Bronx rapper is washing her hands of politics.
The “Bodak Yellow” rapper is fed up with the current political system and expressed her frustrations during an Instagram Live session.
Cardi B, who has always been quite vocal about politics and what is happening in the country and globally, was BIG MAD about NYC Mayor Eric Adam’s proposed budget cuts.
Mayor Mixxy’s 5% budget cuts will affect a bunch of NYC departments to help compensate for the billions of dollars that the city has to spend to take care of asylum seekers who have come to the city.
The New York Post reports that Adams plans to cut $32 million from the sanitation department, $74 million from the FDNY, and $547 million from the Department of Education.
Adams will also be getting rid of a bunch of street garbage cans in the outer boroughs, and 34 popular cultural institutions like the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Museum of Natural History will see their budgets cut by $6 million, according to the New York Post.
Mayor Adams Reasoning For The Severe Cuts
Regardless of there being a legitimate reason for the severe cuts, the Grammy Award-winning artist is not here for them, claiming things like the city will be “drowning in rats” (that’s been a problem forever) due to cuts to sanitation and crime will “go through the roof” because of the cuts coming to the NYPD.
“In New York, there is a $120m budget cut that’s going to affect schools, public libraries, and the police department. And a $5m budget cut in sanitation … We are gonna be drowning in … rats,” Cardi B said during the live session.
Mayor Adams might be on the side of Cardi B, who warned that more cuts would be necessary without additional federal funding to help manage the influx of migrants in NYC.
Per The Guardian:
Migrant costs are going up, tax revenue growth is slowing, and [Covid-19] stimulus funding is drying up,” Adams said in a statement.
“No city should be left to handle a national humanitarian crisis largely on its own, and without the significant and timely support we need from Washington, today’s budget will be only the beginning.
Cardi B Is No Longer Endorsing Presidents
The Biden Administration has not agreed to Mayor Adam’s pleas for funding amid the growing criticism for the continued funding to help Ukraine fend off Russia’s invasion and Israel’s ongoing conflict with Hamas, something Bardi touched on in her passionate IG Live along with announcing she is no longer endorsing presidents.
“I’m endorsing no presidents no more,” Cardi B said. “Joe Biden is talking about, ‘Yeah, we can fund two wars,’… talking about, ‘Yeah, we got it, we’re the greatest nation.’ No … we’re not. We don’t got it, and we’re going through some shit right now. So say it!”
She continued, “We are really, really, really f**ked right now. No, we cannot fund these … wars.”
Someone asked if the country is going “broke,” she replied, “Yes, it is. We ain’t got McDonald’s money.” Despite her claims, the country has seen some solid economic numbers. You can read about that here.
Further condemning Biden’s alleged terrible handling of the economy and foreign policy, she said, “Feed that … to somebody else, twinkle, but don’t feed it to me.” She then promised to ” get to the bottom of it.”
We will await those findings.
X Users React
Elon Musk’s sorry platform X has been a hotbed for discourse since Israel began bombing Gaza in retaliation to Hamas’ brutal attack on October 7.
Many have called on political leaders, mainly Democrats, including President Joe Biden, to call for a ceasefire in protests across the globe.
Recently, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has been the target of many protests, and other Democrats. Still, some are pointing out the fact that the House of Representatives is currently under Republican control and are wondering why that energy isn’t being applied to the GOP and its batsh*t crazy members.
Many responded to Cardi B’s video by pointing out that she was aiming her valid criticisms in the wrong direction and that the Biden/Harris administration has nothing to do with New York City’s budget.
One thing is for sure: the upcoming presidential election will be a hot mess. We hope Cardi B and others understand that there is a lot on the line with a GOP hell-bent on “Making America White oops Great Again.”
Until then, you can see more reactions in the gallery below.

X is scrambling to defend itself after its owner, Elon Musk, got caught out there endorsing an antisemitic post.
Elon Musty has seriously stepped in it.
On his sh*tty platform X, a user pushed the false narrative that Jews are pushing the hatred of white people, writing in a post, “deeply disinterested in giving the tiniest s— now about western Jewish populations,” adding that he realizes “minorities that support flooding their country don’t exactly like them too much.”
Musk couldn’t help himself and responded to the headass post by writing, “You have said the actual truth,” which garnered 6 million views.
The fallout from Musk’s endorsement of the antisemitic post was swift. Spotted on Raw Story, IBM immediately pulled ads off the struggling platform due to a lack of companies willing to advertise on it.
Per Raw Story:
Nonprofit Media Matters on Thursday reported that it found Apple, Oracle, and IBM ads displayed next to posts touting Hitler and the Nazi Party on X.
“IBM has zero tolerance for hate speech and discrimination, and we have immediately suspended all advertising on X while we investigate this entirely unacceptable situation,” the New York-based tech firm said in response to an AFP inquiry.
The White House Condemned Elon Musk
Musk’s endorsement of an unfounded antisemitic conspiracy drew an immediate response from the White House.
“We condemn this abhorrent promotion of Antisemitic and racist hate in the strongest terms, which runs against our core values as Americans,” White House spokesperson Andrew Bates said in a statement. “We all have a responsibility to bring people together against hate and an obligation to speak out against anyone who attacks the dignity of their fellow Americans and compromises the safety of our communities.”
X’s “CEO,” Linda Yaccarino, issued a statement asserting that X’s perspective is always to condemn discrimination. Does she know her boss doesn’t know that?
X users have also been condemning Phony Stark on his platform. You can see those reactions in the gallery below.
