Well, this is not something you see everyday: Sacramento King’s DeMarcus Cousins has trolled reporter Clay Travis about a tweet from five years ago. In the tweet, Travis wrote, “There is a 100% chance that DeMarcus Cousins is arrested for something in the next five years. 100%. Write it in stone.”
Well it appears that Mr. Travis’ prediction has not come true: as today is the five year anniversary of that tweet and Cousins wanted to let the reporter and the world know about that false statement.

And Clay Travis did own up to the tweet: “Funny and well played. $5K to your charity of choice. Let me know where to send it.” But this did not stop Twitter from blowing up, as he is currently trending.
So of course since it is trending, the wonderful paradoxical moral police on Twitter went absolutely insane and tweeted at the Fox Sports 1 personality. Travis, who has never been shy of controversy, in response has retweeted the best of the best insults. And the following ones are the nicer ones in that group, yet they are still NSFW.
And again, these are the nicer insults as his Twitter page is now littered with some very troubling hate. Yes, what Clay said was wrong, but using vulgar language or wishing death on his family is not going to change that.
