LeBron James, Ray Rice and Tony Stewart have gotten on Eminem's bad side - which is not good for the three professional athletes.

The Washington Post reported Tuesday that the rap star found some rhymes for the three athletes who dominated sports headlines over the summer the in his latest song, "Shady XV - The Cxvpher."

Actually, the Ray Rice saga is going on nine months, but it picked up steam over the summer when NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell punished him only two games for his domestic violence charge involving his then-fiancée and now-wife Janay.

The Washington Post points out that Eminem's criticism of James was the lightest of the three, which makes sense because James didn't do bodily harm to another person - intentionally or unintentionally:

Ray Rice now in charge of Roger Goodell's fate?

"I need a towel, sweat leaks from my brow, it's burning my eyes, my cerebral is foul cuz ... I'm thinking about should be illegal. I need my headband like the guy who left Cleveland Ohio and went to South Beach with his talents, screamed (expletive) you on the way out and winked with a smile."

Eminem then verbally jabs at singer Lana Del Ray, using the Ray Rice incident in his description:

"But I may fight for gay rights specially if they ..., it's more of a knockout than Janay Rice, play nice ... I'll punch Lana Del Rey right in the face twice like Ray Rice in broad daylight, in plain sight of the elevator surveillance till the head is banged on the railing and then celebrate with the Ravens."

Eminem still had another rhyme left over for Stewart, who killed Kevin Ward Jr., in an Aug. 9 dirt track race in New York:

"Been known to lose it though, so if I overdo it, you drove me too it. When I step into the vocal booth like I'm supposed to do I'ma murder you on a ... track like Tony Stewart."

As least Eminem shows that he's not oblivious to the American sports scene.
