Looks like Gisele is going to need to give her errand boy a few weeks off.

Sources tell TMZ Tom Brady underwent successful surgery on Monday to repair the torn ligaments in his knee. You'll remember Brady tore the ACL and MCL in his left knee back on September 7.

We're told the surgery was performed by Dr. Neal S. El Attrache of the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic in Los Angeles. Brady probably will be on crutches for the next week or two -- so picking up the dry cleaning and walking the dog will have to be taken care of by someone else.

Our photog didn't seem to think so.

The Cubs were swept out of the playoffs last night by the Los Angeles Dodgers.

How's this for an up-and-down week?

Thursday, Helio Castroneves got indicted on tax evasion charges.

Friday, he showed up to court in shackles and plead not guilty while weeping openly.

Saturday, he won the American Le Mans Series Petit Le Mans in Atlanta.

Better luck next week.

Oft-troubled WWE star Jeff Hardy is finally opening up about the flight he got kicked off of a few weeks ago.

The Baltimore Sun caught up with Hardy at a promotional appearance in Maryland when asked about the airplane incident saying, "I had been drinking a lot, I'm not gonna lie. I guess I was stumbling boarding the plane. I then was asleep when security told me to get off the plane."

Security mentioned he was too drunk to fly. Hardy then "cooperated with security and left the plane."

No further trouble was reported and he was not punished by the WWE. Crazy is as crazy does.

Despite being the runner-up in the 2007 Miss California USA pageant, Nicole has clearly won.

Though the International Gymnastics Federation just officially cleared China's gold medal gymnastics team from speculation they weren't all old enough to compete, we found one Olympian who was there and she ain't buying it.

Oscar Robertson -- one of the greatest basketball players of all time -- is being sued for allegedly fleecing a company he controlled and lining the pockets of his family.

In a Federal lawsuit filed in Pennsylvania, Leo Kelly claims he went into partnership with the Big O -- it's some sort of document management company, whatever that is.

Kelly claims at times the Big O was drawing more than 90% of the company's funds for himself and his family for things like travel, means and entertainment. And what, says Kelly, did he get when he complained? FIRED.

Palmer was a little taken back when an autograph seeker asked for his Hancock on a couple of baseballs outside an event in DC yesterday. But when life gives Arnold Palmer lemons, he makes lemonade ... and then he adds a little iced tea.

The soccer stud soaked up the limelight -- and a whole lot more -- while out in Manchester on Tuesday.

Where's a Right Guard when you need 'em?

First it was Roger Clemens -- now NFL superstar Albert Haynesworth is getting caught in the wake of the Mindy McCready madness!

The Tennessee Titans defensive juggernaut thought he could just slip into a Franklin court today to face the judge over a speeding ticket -- dude got nailed doing 103 in a 70 in an Escalade back in March.

Unfortunately for the 6'6" 320 pounder, a grip of local press was there to cover country singer Mindy McCready turning herself in -- and the big man was pretty hard to miss.

This is why he's ranked #1 in the world.

If you're concerned that banking has become too impersonal -- you should consider Merrill Lynch.

In a lawsuit, San Francisco Giants catcher Benjamin "Bengie" Molina's ex- wife alleges that Bengie conspired with a Merrill Lynch bankers to knowingly transfer funds, property and assets to his, ahem, mistress.

Josefa Molina is seeking a whopping 6 mil from her ex-husband and Merrill Lynch, claiming funds were transfered without her permission.

Normally people can't even get a live person on the phone, and this guy's banker funds his two-timing floozy? Hopefully he used overdraft protection.
