Question is ...

Casey Johnson's family is headed to Cincinnati today to gather around patriarch Woody Johnson and root on the New York Jets in their playoff game.

The Jets play the Cincinnati Bengals at 4:30 PM ET. The Johnson family bought the Jets from former owner Leon Hess back in 2000.

Johnson's body, meanwhile, has been released to the family and is being flown back to the east coast where a funeral service will be held in the next few days.

UPDATE -- TMZ has learned Woody Johnson, the whole Johnson family, coaches and team employees are wearing a blue bracelet in Casey's honor to represent the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, which was founded by the Johnson family. Since her passing, a memorial fund was set up in Casey's honor.

This week in L.A., Freddie Roach slammed Floyd for "pulling out" of the proposed Vegas showdown -- adding "Mayweather doesn't make the rules" when it comes to blood tests.

Mayweather sees things differently -- he thinks Manny's just a "punk ass."

The Game plays for the Los Angeles Slam in the American Basketball Association. In a game on December 20 against the San Diego Surf, he went up to try and block a dunk by "Sonny" Alton Smith III. He failed.

According to sources, cops want to see how Gilbert Arenas' teammates reacted to his Christmas Eve gun standoff with Javaris Crittenton -- and they're hoping to see the players' faces on one key surveillance camera.

We're told the crucial camera angle is just outside the Washington Wizards locker room, and cops want to see the reactions of players who left after the showdown.

Our sources say cops are still trying to download the video from the surveillance system.

Team officials tell us there is no video inside the locker room. Translation -- don't hold your breath for a money shot of the armed incident.

Having QB Colt McCoy would've helped too ...

Floyd claims he's "thoroughly disgusted" that members of Pacquiao's camp are trying to blame Mayweather for standing in the way of the fight.

In a brutal statement, Mayweather states, "First and foremost, not only do I want to fight Manny Pacquiao, I want to whip his punk ass."

Floyd also claims the real reason Manny won't get in the ring is because he doesn't want to take a steroid test.

Mayweather added, "In my opinion it is Manny Pacquiao and his team who are denying the people a chance to see the biggest fight ever. I know the people will see through their smokescreens and lies. I am ready to fight and sign the contract. Manny needs to stop making his excuses, step up and fight."

Your move, Manny ...

The Xmas Eve gun standoff between Gilbert Arenas and teammate Javaris Crittenton may have been caught on tape by surveillance cameras, law enforcement sources tell TMZ.

We're told the Washington Wizards have told D.C. cops they have locker room surveillance video but are having trouble downloading it. The Geek Squad -- aka computer-savvy detectives -- are going to the Wizards organization today to help.

And get this -- a source connected with the investigation tells TMZ the Wizards have been "over cooperative" with cops -- as the source says, "almost as if they want Arenas to go down."

The source says "there is a better than 50/50 chance the U.S. Attorney will issue a felony arrest warrant against Arenas."

As for what caused the confrontation that allegedly triggered a gun standoff -- law enforcement tells TMZ it was all over a card game known as Bourré.

The NBA suspended Arenas indefinitely yesterday and, as we first reported, Arenas didn't have a license for the guns.

Disgraced NBA star Jayson Williams will have a shiny new accessory for the winter season -- an alcohol monitoring anklet.

Williams just faced a judge in NY -- via a video conference -- in his DUI case. The judge is setting him free on bail. But the big thing: Williams is required to wear a SCRAM bracelet -- which tests for the presence of booze.

If alcohol is detected in Williams' system, an alert is sent to a monitoring facility -- who notifies authorities.

His next court date is February 16.

According to several police reports, Vanessa Lopez has had serious legal run-ins with Denver Nuggets forward Kenyon Martin and Cleveland Cavaliers guard Delonte West -- during the same time period she claims she was secretly hooking up with Shaq.

Back in 2006, Delonte West -- then with the Boston Celtics -- called security on Lopez, claiming she refused to leave his Orlando hotel room.

Police were called to the room -- where Lopez, according to the police report, then accused West of making unwanted sexual advances toward her.

West acknowledged that he had slept with Lopez in the past -- but claimed he never hit on her that night. West said Lopez tried to seduce him -- but he rejected her because he had another woman coming over.

Jayson Williams will be arraigned Thursday morning -- from his hospital bed, law enforcement sources tell TMZ.

Williams is still in Bellevue Hospital's criminal ward recovering from serious injuries he suffered in a car accident Tuesday morning -- he was charged with DWI in the wreck.

We're told a camera will be setup in Williams' hospital room so the arraignment can be videocast to Manhattan Supreme Court.

Terrell Owens is being accused of dropping the ball on a pre-season bet he lost to a fan -- a bet involving a $200,000 Bentley.

The fan claims the Buffalo Bills receiver owes him the car -- because before the season started, Owens made a "deal" (through his Twitter page) to catch 10 TDs this year ... or he would fork over the keys to his prized ride.

The season came and went -- and T.O. didn't even come close to the TD mark. Now, the fan is trying to collect -- but claims Owens is completely blowing him off.

T.O.'s rep tells us the whole thing was "all in good nature" and there was "no reality" to the bet.

Woulda been nice though...

The NBA has suspended Washington Wizards star Gilbert Arenas indefinitely.

In a statement, NBA commissioner David Stern said:

"Although it is clear that the actions of Mr. Arenas will ultimately result in a substantial suspension, and perhaps worse, his ongoing conduct has led me to conclude that he is not currently fit to take the court in an NBA game ... Accordingly, I am suspending Mr. Arenas indefinitely, without pay, effective immediately pending the completion of the investigation by the NBA."

Arenas is under investigation for bringing guns to the Verizon Center (where the Wizards play) and allegedly getting into a standoff with teammate Javaris Crittenton.

BTW -- Today is Gilbert's 28th birthday. Happy birthday!

Loleini Tonga, fiancee of Chris Henry, will not face any charges stemming from the incident that led to his death.

The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department Homicide Unit completed its investigation, they announced today, and "determined that there was no evidence of reckless driving or excessive speed by Ms. Tonga."

Cops said Tonga was cooperative throughout their investigation.

More hitting problems for the Cleveland Indians -- this time a former member of the organization is accused of taking a warm-up swing ... on someone else's face.

A guy who worked for a baseball field in Florida is suing the Indians -- and a former "roving instructor" named Minnie Mendoza -- claiming he was setting up batting practice for the Indians' minor league team in 2007 when Mendoza "not paying attention" took a swing and cracked him in the face.

According to the lawsuit, filed in Polk County, Florida, the worker claims he suffered "severe bodily injury" -- including pain, suffering and disfigurement.

We were there right after a bus careened into Ariel Piper's door as she was stepping out of her parked car in West Hollywood -- and though the vehicle's left side was a mangled mess, the wrestler's daughter walked away unscathed.

Piper, who claims the accident wasn't her fault, told us "It didn't hit me, just my door. Doors can be fixed." We're told the drivers exchanged information and no tickets were issued.
