George Clooney posed for a picture with legendary Baltimore Ravens offensive lineman Jonathan Ogden during today's Ravens game ... and OH MY GOD WHAT HAPPENED TO GEORGE!!?!?!?

Clooney's rep says he recently underwent elbow surgery.

ESPN college football analyst Lee Corso got a little excited this morning when picking the winner of the SMU/Houston game today ... and screamed out "F**k it!" in the middle of his pick.

Former NBA player Javaris Crittenton may have thought being charged with murder was the worst thing that could have happened to him this year ... until someone stole his $6,000 Gucci jacket.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Crittenton -- who's still out on bail for allegedly shooting a woman to death back in August -- was hanging out at Drai's nightclub in Hollywood last weekend ... when he decided to put his jacket down and didn't keep an eye on it.

We're told Crittenton went to grab his jacket on his way out of the club around 1:00 AM ... when he discovered it was MISSING!!

Crittenton -- who went MIA for a few days after he was charged with murder -- decided this time, he would seek out the police ...and reported the theft to the LAPD.

We're told cops are investigating the alleged jacket heist.

A Joe Paterno approved instructional football video has gotten the death sentence from distributors over a segment involving Jerry Sandusky interacting with young boys ... one of whom may have been among the alleged victims.

The video -- titled, "Joe Paterno: Linebackers" -- was released in the late '90s and features Sandusky running a hands on tackling drill with a group of young boys. A screen shot from the video appears above.

According to the infamous grand jury report in the Sandusky case, the person identified as Victim #4 participated in "a video made about linebackers that featured Sandusky."

The name of the video is not mentioned in the testimony, but we can't seem to find any other instructional video about linebackers that features Sandusky.

Former wrestling champ Matt Hardy was kicked out of court-ordered rehab today for failing a breathalyzer test ... this according to multiple sources.

Earlier this year, Hardy was ordered to go to rehab by the court after a string of run-ins with the law.

We're told the staff at the rehab got suspicious of Hardy's behavior on Friday and gave him a breathalyzer test on the spot ... which he failed. According to our sources, Hardy was adamant he wasn't drinking ... and said he only failed because he had "just used mouthwash."

The staff wasn't convinced and gave Hardy the old heave-ho from the facility.

Back in September, the Moore County DA said if Hardy didn't comply with the treatment, he would be put in jail on a million dollar bond. We're told Hardy still had about a month to go before he was through.

With the NBA lockout in full effect -- Jason Kidd is hoping to make a couple of bucks in real estate ... selling off his PIMPED OUT condo in Dallas ... TMZ has learned.

Sources connected to the property tell TMZ ... Kidd originally purchased the 2,607 square foot pad back in 2008 for just under $1.5 mil. Now, he's listed the place at $1,595,000 ... hoping to turn a small profit.

The place ain't bad -- boasting 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a theater and a gym ... along with crazy views of Dallas. There's even a private four car garage.

The place is on the 21st floor of the Azure Condo complex ... right around the corner from American Airlines Arena ... where J. Kidd helped lead the Mavericks to the NBA championship last season.

Joe Paterno has been diagnosed with a treatable form of lung cancer ... this according to his son Scott.

Scott just released the following statement: "Last weekend my father was diagnosed with a treatable form of lung cancer during a follow-up visit for a bronchial illness. He is currently undergoing treatment and his doctors are optimistic that he will make a full recovery."

MTV star Rob Dyrdek has a 25 foot basketball rim hangin' at his legendary Fantasy Factory indoor skate park ... and last night, NBA superstar Rudy Gay decided it needed to be DUNKED ON.

TMZ has learned ... Gay was at the downtown L.A. skate spot Wednesday shooting a promo video for the Young and Reckless clothing company, when he noticed the hoop ... suspended 25 feet above a foam ball pit.

We're told 6'8" Gay -- who signed an $85 MILLION contract with the Memphis Grizzlies last year -- eyed up a platform near the rim ... and then BET Rob's cousin Drama he could leap off the ledge and slam it home.

Shaquille O'Neal couldn't power his way through the lane at a New York nightclub this weekend -- getting TURNED AWAY at the door ... all because he was dressed like a lumberjack.

TMZ has learned ... Shaq rolled up to nightclub/restaurant Mars 2112 on Saturday night wearing jeans, a sweatshirt, tennis shoes and a beanie (pictured above with random fan later that night).

But according to the club promoter, Mike Mogul, Shaq's attire wasn't up to club standards ... so security politely informed the retired NBA star that he would not be allowed inside.

Sources at the club tell us Shaq calmly replied, "Are you serious?" ... then shrugged his shoulders and walked down the street to another place that welcomed The Diesel with open arms.

The move is pretty damn shocking, considering TONS of clubs would pay some serious jack to get Shaq to stop by, no matter what he was wearing!!

Artie Lange believes baseball might be the most fat-friendly sport on the planet ... claiming the MLB is the only place on Earth where an "enormous fat guy" like NY Yankees pitcher CC Sabathia can make $25 million a year as an athlete.

Lange was talkin' baseball in the Big Apple last night, when told us, "I'm not one to talk, but [CC] has got to stay away from the Captain Crunch cereal."

Troy Aikman is officially a single man ... and has been for months ... after a judge quietly signed off on his divorce back in April ... TMZ has learned.

Back in January, Troy and Rhonda Aikman announced they had separated after ten years of marriage ... but TMZ has uncovered official public records, signed by Troy, in which the Dallas Cowboys legend states that an "agreed final decree of divorce" has been issued and it lists April 12, 2011 as the day the marriage was legally terminated.

Troy and Rhonda have 2 kids together -- and back in January, they released a joint statement saying, "We remain deeply committed to our children ... during this period of adjustment"

Just a few months before the two separated, Troy and Rhonda were already divvying up the family assets. TMZ obtained official documents which show Rhonda gave up her stake in the family mansion in Dallas last November. It's unclear if she got any compensation for taking her name off the deed ... but just a few months later, she purchased a home, also in Dallas, for roughly $1.5 mil.

TMZ called Aikman's rep for comment -- so far, no response.

Aikman shouldn't struggle too much on the dating circuit -- after all, he looks like this now ...

Mike McQueary never once went to the Penn State campus police OR the State College PD after witnessing Jerry Sandusky allegedly rape a 10-year-old boy in 2002 -- this according to reps for both departments.

According to CBS, neither police bureau has any record of being contacted by Mike McQueary -- despite recent claims McQueary made in an email ... "I did have discussions with police and with the official at the university in charge of police."

In the email, McQueary never specifies which police department he spoke to.

It takes a "special" kind of friend to pick somebody up from the airport in the middle of the day ... but Eva Longoria and L.A. Lakers player Matt Barnes seem to have a very "special" friendship.

Longoria pulled off the ultimate favor for Barnes yesterday -- rolling over to LAX around 11 AM to play the role of chauffeur. Barnes tried to go unnoticed by pulling a black hoodie over his head ... but it's hard to be missed when you're 6'7".

Despite what it seems ... sources close to Eva tell us there's NOTHING romantic going on between the two -- insisting they're just "good friends" who have done a bunch of charity work together.

Michael Vick is gonna make you wish YOU were bankrupt, because we found out how much he's making and how much he's spending, and it's just plain sick.

Vick is required to submit financial documents to the bankruptcy court ... documents which TMZ has obtained. From July - Sept., 2011, Vick earned $11,781,848.68.

Here's how the big stuff breaks down. On Sept. 13th, the Philadelphia Eagles sent Vick a check for $5,838,883.57. On the same day, the Eagles sent him another check for a measly $349,464.54. On Sept. 20th, Vick got another check from the Eagles for $359,484.99. And on Sept. 27, the Eagles sent him another $340,012.13. In September alone, the Eagles, sent him around $6.8 million.

But Vick is fueling the American economy as well, because his expenses are humongous. Between July - Sept., 2011, Vick spent $6,636,805.73. Of that, $47,500 went to alimony and child support. And the dreaded lawyers and accountants got $1,372,070 for bankruptcy services. Vick's living expenses, not including his mortgage, are $73,000.

Oh yeah, the whole government thing -- $4,873,290.91 in taxes. Tea anyone?

Mike McQueary wrote an email in the last week, griping that he's "getting hammered" unfairly because he claims he stopped Jerry Sandusky from continuing to anally rape a 10-year-old before leaving the locker room in 2002.

The email -- obtained by the Associated Press, reads as follows:

"You are the first person I have told this ... and I don't know you extremely well ... and I have been told bye (sic) officials to not say anything ...."

"I did stop it, not physically ... but made sure it was stopped when I left that locker room ... I did have discussions with the official at the university in charge of police ... no one can imagine my thoughts or wants to be in my shoes for those 30-45 seconds...trust me."

"Do with this what you want ... but I am getting hammered for handling this the right way ... or what I thought at the time was right ... I had to make tough impacting quick decisions."

"This is off record ... again ... I have not and will not say anything to anyone else."

Mike McQueary gave a brief interview to CBS Evening News tonight, saying his emotions were "all over the place ... like a snow globe."

Reporter Armen Keteyian says off camera McQueary said he was "shattered and shaken," and concerned about his personal safety and future in coaching.
