Brandon Marshall -- 'It's An Emergency' :: 0425-911-ex

The female who called 911 never identifies herself ... or reveals why she is calling ... she merely tells the 911 operator, "Please come, it's an emergency" ... and then hangs up.

The 911 operator calls back ... but no one answers the phone.

Cops eventually sent emergency vehicles to the home ... and the Miami Dolphins receiver was treated for a stab wound to the stomach.

As we previously reported, Marshall's wife -- Michi Nogami-Marshall -- was arrested for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon ... and she later told police she acted in self-defense.

Dykstra Investigated Over Naked Massage Claim

Published | Updated

More legal trouble for Lenny Dykstra -- and this time it's all because the former MLB star allegedly got NAKED and requested a massage from a woman he was interviewing to be his housekeeper.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the LAPD is investigating Dykstra for lewd conduct ... stemming from allegations made by a 47-year-old woman who claims she answered a Craigslist ad to be Lenny's housekeeper earlier this month.

The woman told police ... when she arrived to the home, Dykstra explained that she wouldn't just have to clean the home, she would also be required to give him massages as well.

The woman claimed Dykstra then took off all of his clothes and told the woman he wouldn't be able to hire her without first sampling her skills. Smooth.

We're told the woman denied his request ... left the home immediately ... flagged down a nearby cop ... and filed a police report. She also locked down a high power attorney, Mauro Fiore Jr., to handle the case.

Attempts to reach Dykstra were unsuccessful.

Dwight Howard Goes After Baby Mama's Money

Published | Updated

Dwight Howard won a $500,000 judgment against his baby mama in the state of Florida for talking smack about him -- but she hasn't paid up, so he's going after her in California.

Howard won the judgment against Royce Reed for half a mil last year because she violated a court order, prohibiting her from talking about him in the press.

Howard claims Reed now owes him $551,606.74 -- which includes interest. So Howard has filed papers with a California court, which could give Howard the right to go after Reed's assets in Cali.

Good luck ... our sources say the "Basketball Wives" star has nada in California.

Like drawing blood from a stone ...

NFL Star Stabbed by Wife

Published | Updated

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Brandon Marshall is recovering in Broward General Hospital after he underwent surgery for a stab wound police say was inflicted by his wife.

Marshall underwent surgery Friday night, according to ESPN, and is still in ICU this morning. ESPN says no vital organs were hit and he should be OK in 2-3 weeks.

Marshall's wife, Michi Nogami-Marshall (see mug shot below), was arrested last night on a domestic violence charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and is currently being held on $75,000 bond. According to the police report, his wife told police she acted in self-defense.

Marshall's agent would only say, "This is a very difficult time for Brandon and family, thankfully he will make a full recovery ... We simply ask that his privacy is respected."

Frank McCourt: I'm Sittin' Back 'Till Bud Decides

Published | Updated

Sources connected with Frank McCourt tell TMZ ... Frank and his lawyers have decided to sit back and wait ... to see who MLB Commissioner Bud Selig chooses to oversee the day-to-day operation of the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Our sources say the person Selig picks will not run the operation, but rather will have a VETO over decisions Frank and the rest of the management team make.

As TMZ first reported ... Frank's lawyers are preparing legal documents that would challenge Selig's move earlier this week -- claiming it's "arbitrary and capricious."

Our sources say nothing will be filed before Selig names the monitor. We're told if it's someone who has been "sympathetic" to the team and Frank, they probably will not challenge the decision -- at least not immediately.

If, however, the person Selig chooses is not friendly -- or, as it was put to TMZ, "a saboteur" -- Frank's lawyers will fire up their legal options.

We're told Frank and his team have no idea who Selig will select, but some of the names bandied about include Tommy Lasorda, Peter O'Malley and Joe Torre.

Frank McCourt Gearing Up for Legal War with MLB

Published | Updated

Sources connected with Frank McCourt tell TMZ ... the L.A. Dodgers owner has his lawyers preparing a case against Major League Baseball as well as Commissioner Bud Selig.

Sources familiar with the case tell us ... Frank's lawyers are researching and preparing legal docs so they can go to court and ask for a mandatory injunction, forcing the MLB and Selig to reinstate McCourt as the man in charge of the day-to-day operation of the team.

Our sources say the essence of McCourt's case -- that Selig was allegedly "arbitrary and capricious" in yanking McCourt's authority.

We're told one of the arguments -- that Selig and the MLB have tolerated bigger problems with other teams, including the New York Mets, which is reportedly $450 million in debt.

Our sources say legal action "is not imminent" -- meaning it won't be filed today. But sources say it could still be filed as early as Friday.

McCourt and Dodgers -- NO Takeover Talks with FOX

Published | Updated

Despite Frank McCourt getting a $30 million personal loan from FOX -- the network is NOT in the market to purchase the Los Angeles Dodgers from its embattled owner.

Sources connected with the team tell us FOX is not interested in buying back the franchise it sold to McCourt in 2003 -- and even though the MLB just took control of Doyer finances ... McCourt's not talking about selling.

We're told the main reason there won't be a Dodgers-FOX reunion is it's a bad business model for the network. Put simply, there's better money in airing baseball games than running baseball teams.

Speaking of which, you can bet FOX will keep up its efforts to lock down a long term deal to broadcast Dodgers games ... no matter who's running the team.

Eli Manning to Wife -- You Feelin' Lucky???

Published | Updated

Since the NFL won't pay him, unemployed New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning tried to make a little money at a casino in Mississippi this week ... during a special night out with his wife.

Eli and and his wife Abby hit the Horseshoe Tunica Hotel & Casino on Tuesday -- and according to sources inside the joint, Abby was telling people it was her first time out since giving birth to their daughter Ava on March 21.

We're told the couple tried their luck at craps ... and then some blackjack -- and were "very friendly" with everyone at the casino.

But perhaps the most important thing -- at one point in the evening, a man came up to Eli and asked if he thought there would be an NFL season this year ... and Eli simply replied, "Yes."

Hopefully, he's right.

Jamie McCourt: I Have Nothing to Hide

Published | Updated

Jamie McCourt just issued a statement expressing complete support for Commissioner Bud Selig, but the subtext to her statement is way more interesting.

STATEMENT: "As the 50% owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers, I welcome and support the Commissioner's actions to provide the necessary transparency, guidance and direction for the franchise and for Dodgers fans everywhere."

TRANSLATION: Hey Frank ... you kicked me out of the Dodgers and drove the team into the ground and all these problems are on your watch. I own half the team, and I can't wait for Bud to put what you did under a microscope.

Marriage ... it's a beautiful thing ...

McCourts Investigated by IRS

Published | Updated

The Internal Revenue Service is investigating the finances surrounding the L.A. Dodgers as well as Frank and Jamie McCourt ... sources connected with the team tell TMZ.

TMZ has learned of the investigation in the wake of Commissioner Bud Selig's announcement that Major League Baseball has taken over the financial operation of the team.

Sources tell TMZ ... the IRS investigation was triggered by a number of disclosures surrounding the McCourt divorce. In particular, IRS agents are interested in the fact that the McCourts took $145 million from the team and paid no taxes (certain court documents place the figure at around $105 million, but we're told it's actually $145 mil).

The IRS is also interested in the fact that the McCourt children have drawn a salary from the team but performed no apparent services to justify the payout.

And the IRS is focusing on certain team losses that were carried forward.

And we're told the California Franchise Tax Board is also looking at the situation.
