Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman has an amazing response over at Sports Illustrated to all the bogus moralizing about former Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson, who was cut last week for alleged gang ties to members of the Crips. In short, Sherman says that it's ridiculous to think players who grew up in rough neighborhoods with troublesome friends should cut ties with those people once they reach the pros. Rather, he argues that it's better to maintain those relationships and try to "educate them on the right way of doing things" so they can become better people.

But the most salient bit comes when Sherman addresses the blatant racial double standard in the NFL — and really, pro sports in general — when it comes to supposed character flaws. Having been pilloried as a scary black man, an exemplar of "thug culture" for his braggadocio in last year's playoffs, it's an issue Sherman knows intimately. He writes:

Commit certain crimes in this league and be a certain color, and you get help, not scorn. Look at the way many in the media wrote about Jim Irsay after his DUI arrest. Nobody suggested the Colts owner had "ties" to drug trafficking, even though he was caught driving with controlled substances (prescription pills) and $29,000 in cash to do who-knows-what with. Instead, poor millionaire Mr. Irsay needs help, some wrote.

But DeSean Jackson is the menace, right? He's just as bad as those guys he parties with because he threw up a Crip sign in a picture and he owns a gangsta rap record label. If only all record label owners were held to this standard, somebody might realize that Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg weren't the bosses behind NWA. Jim Irsay lookalikes in suits were. [Sports Illustrated]

Authorities in West Palm Beach, Florida, say an 18-year-old opened his own medical clinic in town, where he performed physical exams and gave out medical advice to patients.

Malachi Love-Robinson was arrested after allegedly giving an undercover officer an exam, and is being charged with practicing medicine without a license. The Florida Department of Health says it received a tip in October about Love-Robinson practicing without a license, and although a cease-and-desist letter was sent to his New Birth New Life Holistic and Alternative Medical Center and Urgent Care, he didn't stop. Sources told the Sun Sentinel Love-Robinson is the same teen who was discovered roaming around St. Mary's Medical Center wearing a lab coat and claiming to be an anesthesiologist in January 2015. Because he was 17 at the time, he was not publicly named, and charges were never filed.

Love-Robinson has a five star rating on Healthgrades.com, and said on his website he was CEO of the practice. His grandfather, William Robinson, told the Sun Sentinel his grandson is only guilty of pursuing his dreams — he never said he was a medical doctor, Robinson said, and he received certificates from online schools allowing him to practice as a holistic doctor. His plan was always to run the clinic and bring on other doctors to work there. "He's not out doing drugs," Robinson said. "He's not out trying to rob somebody. He's trying to do something constructive, and if he did do something and the paperwork wasn't right — he can get ahead of himself sometimes and he may have been trying too hard, but he had good intentions."

The South Dakota state Senate passed a bill 20 to 15 on Tuesday that would prevent transgender students from using bathrooms and other facilities that correspond with their gender identity.

If the bill is signed by Gov. Dennis Daugaard (R), South Dakota will become the first state in the U.S. that would require transgender students to use bathrooms and other facilities based on their "chromosome and anatomy" at birth, Time reports. The bill was passed in the state House earlier this month, in a vote of 58 to 10, and its sponsor, state Rep. Fred Deutsch, said during committee testimony that it protects "bodily privacy rights" of "biologic boys and girls." Transgender students will have the option of using alternate accommodations, he said, but the bill does not disclose what those accommodations would be.

Civil rights groups say this is misguided, with the ACLU South Dakota's policy director, Libby Skarin, telling Time the bill "causes actual harm to transgender students, an already vulnerable population. It singles out and targets them and attempts to isolate them, in a way that is really truly hurtful and discriminatory." Catherine Garcia

No one does a heart-to-heart like Danny Tanner, so when Jimmy Fallon's Donald Trump decided he needed to talk to someone during Tuesday's Tonight Show, he headed straight to Michelle's pencil bed and waited for the sentimental Full House music to start playing and the audience to erupt in awwww's.

Trump confided to his new dad that while he's thrilled by his "yuuge" win in New Hampshire, he's afraid if he doesn't get the Republican nomination, he'll be branded a loser. Trump was in luck — not only did Danny share some inspiring words, but so did the rest of the gang, including Joey, D.J., and Uncle Jesse (John Stamos), who proclaimed: "If you really want to make America great again, you have to bring people together, not push them apart." Because this is Uncle Jesse we're talking about, there was a "Have mercy" thrown in for good measure.

The 6-minute segment is full of references to old Full House episodes (the reboot, Fuller House, premieres on Netflix in two weeks), and the pep talks were so successful that Trump was soon back to his old self again, announcing that he finally found a way to keep Kimmy Gibbler out of the house for good: "We'll build a giant wall, and no more Gibblers! A ban on all Gibblers until we figure out what's going on, and we make her pay for it." Watch the video below. Catherine Garcia

On Monday's Full Frontal, Samantha Bee kicked off her second show with a profane look at the political hullabaloo surrounding the death of Justice Antonin Scalia and the jockeying over who will replace him. According to Article 2 of the Constituion, President Obama "just appoints a new one," Bee said — except that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has already ruled that out. Bee noted the poetic discord of that pre-emptive "no":"Yes, because what better way to honor America's greatest champion of original intent than by wiping your obstructionist a-- on the document he holds so dear."

While Bee had some pretty NSFW things to say about McConnell, she was relatively respectful of the dead justice, even ending the the Scalia segment with some nice words about the conservative jusrist: "Whether or not you hated his narrow literalism about a document written before machine guns and gay people were invented, Scalia was by all accounts a nice guy with a wicked sense of humor — people liked him."

The Scalia remembrance led into a look at Saturday's wild Republican presidential debate, and Bee was shocked to find a candidate making an inordinate amount of sense: "Oh my God! I agree with Donald Trump. I'm ruined. They're going to take my comedy show away." There is vulgar language peppered throughout the video, but if that doesn't bother you, watch below. Peter Weber

George Gaynes, a notable character actor and baritone singer, died Monday in North Bend, Washington. He was 98.

His daughter, Iya Gaynes Falcone Brown, confirmed his death to The New York Times. Born George Jongejans in Helsinki to a Russian mother and Dutch father, Gaynes was raised in France, England, and Switzerland, and enlisted in the Royal Dutch Navy during World War II, Reuters reports. After the war, he moved to the United States, where he changed his last name and joined the New York City Opera.

As an actor, he appeared in 35 films (Tootsie, Just Married) and countless television shows, including Mission: Impossible, Hawaii Five-0, General Hospital, Chicago Hope, and Bonanza. He starred in the 1980s sitcom Punky Brewster, portraying Henry Warnimont, a photographer who ultimately adopts the spunky Punky Brewster after she is abandoned by her mother. He also appeared in all seven Police Academy films as Commandant Lassard. Gaynes retired in 2003. He is survived by his wife, actress Allyn Ann McLerie; his daughter; one granddaughter; and two great-granddaughters. His son, Matthew, died in 1989 in a car accident. Catherine Garcia

Fans of The Simpsons will have the opportunity to ask Homer anything during a special live portion of the May 15th episode.

From May 1 through May 4, people can tweet their questions, using #HomerLive. For the final three minutes of the show, Homer will respond to topical questions in a segment that will air live on both coasts. The episode's theme will revolve around improv comedy, and showrunner Al Jean told The Hollywood Reporter he's excited to see what Dan Castellaneta (the voice of Homer) will do during the live portion. "He's a great improvisor," he said.

Jean said that to his knowledge, this is the first time an animated show is doing something like this. It's going to take months to get the animation ready, he added, with the Simpsons team using motion capture technology to depict Homer talking about things "he could only be saying live on that day."

When you're Paul McCartney, every door opens for you — unless it's the entrance to rapper Tyga's Grammy afterparty at Hollywood's Argyle nightclub. In that case, you're denied access while TMZ captures the whole embarrassing affair on camera.

McCartney and pals Beck and Taylor Hawkins of the Foo Fighters are seen on video breezily walking up to the club Monday night, figuring they would be ushered in by the bouncer. The musicians may have more than 30 Grammy Awards between them, but they also had zero invitations to the party, and were not welcomed inside. McCartney took it in stride, jokingly asking, "How VIP do we gotta get?" before turning to his friends and announcing: "We need another hit, guys! Work on it."

Thinking there had to have been some sort of mistake, they tried again, but were rebuffed a second time. Eventually, the trio went to the Republic Records party at Hyde, CBS News reports, where presumably the bouncer knew who was trying to get through the door. Tyga — best known for dating reality star Kylie Jenner — tweeted that he had no idea McCartney and friends weren't allowed in the club: "Why would I deny @PaulMcCartney stop it. He's a legend." He followed up with: "I don't control the door. I had no knowledge SIR PAUL was there. I just performed and left." Questions still abound: Why was Paul McCartney even trying to get into a party thrown by Tyga? Does he know who that is? Did he think it was actually a fundraiser for animals? May we have our answers soon. Catherine Garcia
