1. Hollywood Victims - Much props to the many men and women who have taken the step in telling their story about sexual assault and being the victim of displays of power for sexual gain within Hollywood.

3. Mike Ditka - This dude really said there hasn't been oppression in the United States in the last 100 years. Come on, man...
