Star Receiver Ordered to Avoid Baby Mama. Star Cardinals wideout Larry Fitzgerald has been ordered to avoid any contact with the mother of his 11-month-old son after he allegedly beat her down and yanked her hair out, TMZ.com reports. Angela Nazario told police that she brought the couple’s son to visit Larry at his Phoenix home last October and an argument ensued. In legal papers filed in an Arizona court, Nazario claims that Fitzgerald attempted to “diffuse the situation” by raising his fist and challenging her to a play fight. Nazario responded by swinging at him and “may have hit his face,” she acknowledges in the documents. Fitzgerald turned from playful to enraged and pushed Nazario down to her knees, she alleges. He “grabbed me by my hair with both hands on the back of my head very, very hard and tossed me across the room,” she charges. “Later, when she tried to leave with her son, Nazario says Fitzgerald ‘grabbed the back of my neck and slammed me down on the marble floor … [I] was disoriented for awhile and could not get up. I remember he mumbled something about ‘that’s what happens when you try taking my son away from me,’” TMZ.com reports. “As she got in the car to leave she realized she had lost ‘chunks’ of hair.”

Black Athletes Exploited? On average, Black and White students arrive on campus with much different academic backgrounds and graduate at much different rates, according to a study by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Athletes’ experiences reflect those differences, and those differences affect the statistics for athletes as a whole, the study found. African-Americans are far better represented on the playing field than in the classroom, it shows. Only about 1.8 percent of White students were scholarship athletes, compared with 6.4 percent of Black students. Some schools’ athlete-student demographic differences were huge. For example, about a third of the Black students in Colorado’s 2002 freshman class were scholarship athletes, according to the Journal-Constitution. Read the rest of the findings here.
