Ex-WWE superstar Big Daddy V's body was cremated earlier this week ... and his widow has slightly eerie plans for the ashes ... TMZ has learned.

Cassandra Frazier tells TMZ ... the ashes of her husband Viscera -- a.k.a. Nelson Frazier Jr. -- will be put into 500 pendants and placed on necklaces, and then she's going to gift them to his loved ones.

Cassandra says for now she's storing BDV's ashes in an urn at home until their she's ready to hand out the keepsakes.

Paula Deen has an odd way of proving she's not a racist -- she just dropped a metaphor ... comparing her n-word scandal to "that black football player who recently came out" ... aka NFL prospect Michael Sam.

Deen says she and Sam are in a similar struggle for acceptance ... because she feels like "embattled" or "disgraced" will always follow her name.

She told People magazine ... Sam wants to be known as a football player, not a gay football player -- and to drive home her point, she added, "I know exactly what he's saying."

Critics have been ripping Paula with comments like, "Maybe Michael Sam could compare himself to "that white, fat, redneck TV chef who used the n-word."

"Basketball Wives" star Draya Michele says her NFL star boyfriend ain't a fan of the VH1 show -- and he hates it so much, he offered to pay her TWICE HER SALARY to quit.

Draya -- who's dating Dallas Cowboys cornerback Orlando Scandrick -- dropped the bombshell on Big Boy's Neighborhood show on L.A.'s Power 106 this week ... admitting the reality show has been "really hard on my boyfriend."

"We watch it together and he’s came to the point already. It’s been episode one, we saw 60 minutes of what is going to be going on for 12 weeks and he’s like ‘You know what? I don’t think you should do this next year How much are they paying you again? I’ll pay you double to sit your ass on the couch.'"

It seems Draya not only turned down the offer ... but said she hopes to have her own reality show in the future.

Richie Incognito SMASHED HIS OWN FERRARI with a baseball bat ... at least, that's what he told police this morning ... TMZ Sports has learned.

We broke the story ... neighbor's noticed someone had taken a bat to the front of the Richie's black Ferrari in front of his home in AZ yesterday.

Now, the Scottsdale Police Department tells us ... they spoke with Richie early this morning and he admitted he took the bat to his own car.

Clearly, Incognito was pissed about something ... but we don't know what set him off.

We reached out to Richie's people for comment -- so far, no word back.

As if he didn't have enough going on in his life, Richie Incognito's parents have filed for divorce ... and in docs, his dad claims Richie supports his entire family ... TMZ Sports as learned.

Richie's father filed for divorce in Arizona on October 31, 2013 ... just 3 days after Jonathan Martin left the Miami Dolphins due to Incognito's alleged bullying.

In the court documents obtained by TMZ Sports, Richie's dad praises his son for essentially keeping the family afloat for years during extremely hard financial times.

In the docs, Richie's father writes ... "If it was not for the kindness of our son we would have been living in a tent when we lost our home."

In addition to helping out with their living situation, Richie's dad says ... "I have a son at ASU. His tuition is paid by his brother."

Kevin Hart SCORED A GOAL on one of the best soccer goalies in the world the other day ... and it was all caught on video ... which is great, because Kev's celebration was HILARIOUS!

Hart was at the Manchester City training center out in England when goalkeeper Joe Hart agreed to allow the funnyman to take a 1-on-1 penalty shot against him.

FYI -- Joe Hart plays for the English National Team and is considered one of the best players on the planet.

Shockingly, Kev scored ... and went BONKERS ... screaming like a 13-year-old girl and dancing around like he just won the Super Bowl.

One Direction singer Louis Tomlinson made his pro soccer DEBUT in England last night ... and while his performance was lackluster, dude was OBSESSED with his own beautiful hair.

The 22-year-old pop star hit the pitch for the Doncaster Rovers, a Football League Championship team based in Yorkshire.

Tomlinson entered the game at right back ... but didn't really see much action.

Instead, people at the game say he spent a lot of time flipping his hair around on the field.

Still, the crowd went wild for the guy ... and his team didn't lose -- the game ended in a 0-0 tie.

We broke the story ... Aaron Hernandez brawling with a fellow inmate. Everyone's wondering how deputies allowed it to happen -- but we think Cedric the Entertainer's come up with the best theory yet.

Plus, Lamar Odom's crack legacy has now been sealed in history thanks to a Rick Ross produced rap track. Are L.O.'s drug issues fair game at this point?

There was AT LEAST one gay player on every single NFL team Deion Sanders played on during his career ... so says Prime Time himself.

Deion was on the "Arsenio Hall" show last night when the topic turned to Michael Sam -- the first openly gay NFL prospect.

"He's not the first gay guy in the NFL," Sanders said ... "He's the first one to come out."

"Every team I played on ... I think I played on 5 different teams ... there was someone gay in the locker room."

Deion says he and his teammates always knew who the gay players were and only judged that person based on football ability.

Check this out ... TMZ Sports recently asked Kansas City Chiefs defensive stud Brandon Flowers to name his Top 3 favorite strip clubs in the country.

But since Brandon says strip clubs are "kind of frowned upon in the NFL," he agreed to tell us about the one he "hears" about the most instead.

So, here's Brandon's official Strip Club Breakdown:

1) Onyx in Atlanta -- "I heard that one's pretty good"

2) Tootsies in Miami -- "I heard Tootsies has the best lobster tail and rice on earth."

3) 11 in Miami -- "It's a new club that's supposed to be pretty good so I'm looking forward to 'hearing' about that one."

Someone smashed up Richie Incognito's expensive black Ferrari with a baseball bat ... in front of the NFL player's home in Scottsdale, AZ ... and TMZ Sports has photos of the destruction.

Sources tell TMZ Sports ... Richie's neighbors first noticed the car had been attacked on Wednesday afternoon.

You can see a baseball bat lying in front of the car ... with a piece of the bat stuck in the grill. There are also red shirts hanging from the car -- we're told they have Incognito's name written on them.

It appears to be the very same Ferrari that Incognito had delivered to his Miami home back in November -- right in the middle of the fallout from the Jonathan Martin situation.

So far it's unclear who smashed the car ... or why. Also, unclear if Richie was home at the time of the attack.

Former University of Miami football star Jojo Nicolas has died ... days after suffering severe injuries in a horrific car crash involving an 18-wheeler ... his family has confirmed.

Nicolas was driving a silver Lexus that plowed into the back of a big rig on a Miami highway early Tuesday morning. Emergency responders raced to the scene and transported Jojo to a nearby hospital in critical condition.

But Jojo's condition took a turn for the worse Wednesday and he passed at 5pm.

Officials are still investigating the cause of the crash -- and have not ruled out alcohol.

Nicolas was 24.

Chael Sonnen says Wanderlei Silva is "the worst fighter in the UFC" ... and it's time for the guy to either sign a contract to fight or SHUT UP ... 'cause he's sick of waiting around.

Sonnen was at LAX this week when he blasted his "Ultimate Fighter: Brazil" rival -- who, according to Chael, has yet to sign his contract so they can finally get in the Octagon.

Chael and Silva were originally supposed to brawl at UFC 173 ... but the fight has since been pushed back ... and at this point, Sonnen isn't convinced it's ever going to happen.

Now, things are clearly getting personal -- with Chael telling us the guy straight up "sucks" at fighting.

The victim in the Aaron Hernandez jail fight was in HANDCUFFS at the time of the attack ... and therefore couldn't defend himself ... sources extremely familiar with the situation tell TMZ Sports.

Our sources tell us ... Aaron was NOT wearing handcuffs when he was allowed to go for an isolated walk in a hallway at Bristol County Jail on Tuesday ... but the other inmate he encountered WAS in 'cuffs.

As we first reported, the other inmate had been talking smack to Hernandez ... and Aaron had been upset. When they got into the hallway, Aaron attacked ... and we're told he beat the crap out of the guy.

Our sources say ... since the victim's hands were restrained, he could barely defend himself from Aaron's assault, which we're told was brutal.

Bristol County Sheriff Thomas Hodgson has told other media outlets, the fight lasted less than a minute. Hodgson says he's investigating the situation to find out how the men got into the hallway at the same time.

A rep for the jail had no comment. We reached out to Hodgson about this story multiple times ... he won't return our calls.

Aaron Hernandez had NO CHOICE but to beat the crap out of an inmate who dissed him in jail ... because he had to let everyone know he ain't no bitch ... so says Cedric the Entertainer.

Ced was leaving Crossroads restaurant on Melrose when he broke it down:

"It's prison. People wanna test their stuff out, they don't believe Hernandez [is] real ... they don't think he's real with his stab game ... and he had to let 'em know!"

Lamar Odom is getting the rap treatment ... thanks to a rapper on Rick Ross' record label who just dropped a new song inspired by L.O. ... and it's littered with some serious crack undertones.

The guy behind the song is Whole Slab -- a member of Rick's Maybach Music Group -- and his new single "Lamar Odom" is all about smokin' something called "Lamar Odom."

Slab tells TMZ Sports straight up ... "Lamar Odom is now the street word for that illegal white substance."

Clearly, the lyrics were inspired by Lamar's substance abuse issues -- particularly, his issues with crack.

As for Rick Ross' role on the song -- Slab says, "Rick inspired me and guided me through the making of my album. Lamar Odom is my first single and we're going to shoot a video for it."
