    I feel like that wouldn't even be fair.

    That's like roasting a developmentally disabled homeless person.

    Sure you'll get some cheap laughs, but what's the point?

    This has gone too far. Pretty soon we'll be roasting Pamela Anderson and Jessica Simpson. Oh wait...

    Wasn't this something once reserved for folks in the twilight of their career. Oh wait...

    exactly. i mean, they did roast pam anderson, but her life has probably been more silver lined/served on a platter, and she's not the brightest bulb in the basement. a lot of shit goes right over her empty head. is the flavor flav character an act or is he really that out of it. i just cant see this being funny. more SAD, IF ANYTHING.

    Sure you'll get some cheap laughs, but what's the point?

    Flav has clowned himself better in recent years than any panel of comedians could hope to clown him.
