I don't know if we have the whole story but I didn't like how he dragged on the J.But/K.Mag situation, then supposedly firing K.Mag on his birthday.

Lake Busbee participated in a hostile takeover of the surrounding providences.
First pic is the parking lot entrance to the Super 8 on the east side of the lake. The hotel's first floor probably had 6-12 inches of water in it.
Second pic is taken from the bridge crossing the Waccamaw River just east of Lake Busbee. The lake and the river merged. I guess it's more accurate to say the Waccamaw expanded and took over everything because that's what has really happened.
The last pic is looking northeast along New Road which runs on the west side of Lake Busbee. in places it looks like the road has feet of water on it.

Lewis trying to throw shade on the goat. Personally I don't believe it. It's not hard to hold your **** for 2 hours and I would imagine Michael had that **** down to a science. Perhaps the mechanics were mistaken and assumed it was pee, when in reality, it was buckets of adrenaline.
Lewis Hamilton has revealed that he has "never" peed in his race-suit during a grand prix, but apparently Michael Schumacher did it "every single time" he was in the car.
Hamilton appeared on The Ellen Show ahead of this weekend's United States Grand Prix.
And of course, Ellen DeGeneres asked the pressing questions such as do drivers pee during grands prix.
"You're supposed to go in your suit, but I can't do it," Hamilton said.
"I've never done it. But there are drivers that do."
He elaborated: "The driver that used to drive for the team was Michael Schumacher, I don't know if anyone's heard of him, but legend racing driver.
"My mechanics told me he peed every single time he was in the car."
As for his lack of a romantic life, Hamilton explained that he is "solely focused on my racing, trying to win a championship this year, which is definitely very trying. So no, I don't really have plans at the moment."
