Tiger Woods Hounded by Fans ...Still
Tiger Woods may not be the golfer he once was but hey, theguy still knows how to draw a crowd.
Woods was mobbed by a bunch of golf groupies -- sadly for Tiger, all men -- pushing and shoving for his autograph as he headed to the first tee Wednesday at theTiger Woods Invitational in Westlake, CA.
The charity game benefited the Tiger WoodsFoundation, which we're assuming isn't for underprivileged mistresses and pornstars.

Spud Webb Coaching Stripper Hoops Was Just a JOKE!!
Former NBA great Spud Webb is pulling out of stripper basketball -- and, oddly, his rep says the whole head coaching gig was merely an "ill-fated attempt at humor."
In a statement, Spud's rep says ... "Contrary to reports, Spud Webb will not be coaching the Rick's Cabaret/New York Stripper Basketball Team." The rep adds the announcement was taken out of context.
We'll say this ... Spud didn't seem like he was joking when we shot his "announcement" -- at Rick's Cabaret -- with his new strippers team.
The team members tell us, "We sadly accept Spud's resignation, and we wish him the best."
A new coach will be named soon.
Strippers!
Kris Humphries I Was Kim's Reality Show Pawn
Sources very close to Kris Humphries tell TMZ ... Kris is gunning for an annulment based on fraud because he feels "he was just slotted in the plot line of Kim Kardashian's latest headline and newest business venture."
We're told Kris believes Kim never intended to stay married to him, but needed a groom to fuel ratings for her show. One source says, "Once they were finished taping, she just didn't need a groom anymore."
Kris is telling people he feels like a pawn in the game.
And, we're told, Kris is outraged by people who think he was in on the wedding scam -- according to one friend, "He would have never flown in his childhood pastor to marry them and involve his church."
Finally, Kris feels Kim's own statement that she posted on her blog is a smoking gun ... specifically, "I felt like I was on a fast roller coaster and couldn't get off when now I know I probably should have. I got caught up in the hoopla and the filming of the TV show."
Bottom line -- the divorce/annulment war is on.
Seems Kris has other things on his mind too -- he was spotted yesterday at the airport in Washington, DC with his mother. They were in town to attend a children's health conference ... "Building A Healthier Future Conference." We're told Kris is very active in the cause.

Terrell Owens P-P-Playoffs??? You're Talking Playoffs?
Terrell Owens has the second most TD receptions in NFL history ... but he's not too big to practice on a crappy field in Studio City, CA -- with a QB who can hardly throw (no, not Donovan McNabb).
T.O.'s still staying in shape because there are rumblings he might join a team -- possibly the Patriots -- for the playoff run.
Watch the video ... dude still looks pretty sharp. Other highlights: people walking dogs in the background, really bad passes, and T.O. chatting up a pretty girl.
Someone, please sign him soon.

Michael Vick Pumps Up Nate Dogg's Son
Michael Vick just made another deposit in the karma bank ... 'cause dude inspired a young dogg -- Nate Dogg's son -- by reaching out to talk football and family this week.
Here's how Vick connected with Naijiel Hale -- a football stud at Lakewood High, outside Los Angeles.
Naijiel's mom entered him in a Vick giveaway contest on Facebook by telling the Eagles QB ... her son is a huge fan of his, and "a sophomore starting DB (defensive back) with awesome grades :)"
Couple days later Vick personally responded with an email to Naiji, saying ... "Congratulations on a good season and thank you for the support." Naijiel told his hero, "Its been a hard year with my dad passing," and added he and Nate Dogg used to watch Vick play every game.
A rep tells TMZ, Vick decided to contact Naiji after reading about his H.S. football success -- leading the league in interceptions -- despite his father's death in March.
In his last email Vick said, "Sorry to hear about your father but glad to see you're being strong and keep achieving."
Now, if he can just get back on the field for the Eagles.

Kim Kardashian I'm NOT a Fraud I Really Loved Him
Kim Kardashian is telling close friends today ... she NEVER defrauded Kris Humphries into marrying her.
Sources very close to Kim tell us ... Kim loved Kris and the marriage was legit, but just fell apart in short order.
As for Kris filing for an annulment on grounds Kim defrauded him, she says the two of them actually discussed annulling the marriage before she filed for divorce, but they were advised there were no legitimate grounds for an annulment. Under California law, someone can annul a marriage if there's proof of impotency, incest, bigamy, unsound mind, force or fraud.
In fact, Kim is saying she wanted an annulment and filed for divorce only after being told it was her only legal option.

'Baseball Wives' Dildo Stunt Has Show Staffers in Uproar
"Baseball Wives" -- a new show debuting tonight on VH1 -- is in meltdown mode, because one of the women is so out of control, she's threatening other BB wives with a 12-inch dildo.
During a recent filming, Anna Benson -- the wife of former Mets pitcher Kris Benson -- got into it with Cheri Knoblauch -- wife of former Yankee second baseman Chuck Knoblauch. Anna got creative, pulled out a stun gun and set it on a table in front of her in a threatening manner, then produced a 12-inch dildo from her purse and started swinging ... which raises the question, Why such a big purse?
Sources connected with the show tell TMZ ... some of the staffers are now threatening to quit, because they can't handle Anna's insane behavior.
Sources tell us ... show execs are trying to contain Anna.

Jerry Sandusky New Accuser in Sex Scandal Reveals Horrifying Allegations
More disturbing allegations in the Jerry Sandusky scandal -- now, a 30-year-old man has filed a lawsuit against the former Penn St. coach for sexually abusing him more than 100 times when he was a kid.
The accuser -- who is only being identified as 'John Doe' -- is NOT one of the 8 victims listed in the grand jury report that rocked Penn State -- but his story seems to fall in line with the rest of the allegations.
According to John Doe's lawyers, the alleged victim claims he met Sandusky through the Second Mile charity when he was 10-years-old ... and was abused by the coach more than 100 times between 1992 and 1996.
Doe claims the abuse occurred in multiple locations -- including the Penn State locker room, the Sandusky home, and also during a road trip to a bowl game.
8:30 AM PST -- The accuser has released a statement about the suit ... saying, "I don’t want other kids to be hurt and abused by Jerry Sandusky or anybody like Penn State to allow people like him to do it—rape kids!"
He adds, "I never told anybody what he did to me over 100 times at all kinds of places until the newspapers reported that he had abused other kids and the people at Penn State and Second Mile didn’t do the things they should have to protect me and the other kids."
John Doe says he hopes his lawsuit will encourage other victims to come forward and "get help and help protect others in the future."

Ex-WWE Champ JBL Someone Jacked My Scooter ... From a Police Station!!!
You can't count on cops in Bermuda -- at least if you're wrestling legend JBL, who just got his motorized scooter stolen in the British overseas territory ... from right in front of a police station.
The longest reigning WWE champion in history -- who lives on the subtropical island -- tells TMZ, he left the scooter parked in the police lot at the Bermuda airport, but when he returned to scoot back home ... the bike was nowhere to be seen.
Cops are on the case -- but sadly, we're told the scooter is probably already long gone ... stripped down for parts.
TMZ spoke to the champ about the unfortunate incident, and he had only this to say ... "You can't steal a wrestling god's scooter, don't you know?"
Clearly, Mr. Bermudian Scooter Jacker didn't get the memo.

Kobe Bryant [video] Secret NBA Training ... WITH THE JEWS!
Hanukkah came early for a bunch of Jews in Irvine, CA tonight -- when Kobe Bryant rolled up to the local Jewish Community Center and asked if he could borrow the basketball court for a hardcore private training session ... TMZ has learned.
Yentas at the JCC tell us ... the honchos at the center were more than happy to let Kobe use the facility -- and the Black Mamba couldn't have been nicer.
Kobe and a trainer proceeded to work on shooting drills and cardio training while a gang of the chosen people looked on in amazement.
We're told the training session went on for more than an hour -- and Kobe looked as sharp as ever.
Of course, the NBA lockout is just about over -- but players aren't expected to rejoin their teams for a few days ... so it seems Kobe is simply trying to get ahead of the game.
Kobe ain't the first NBA superstar to play with the 'Brews -- just last month LeBron James filled in for a league team at a JCC in Ohio ... and DOMINATED.

In an effort to show their support for the troops, the WWE sent a pair of smokin' hot twins to West Point ... put them in super-tight clothing ... made them run a military obstacle course ... and it was awesome.
28-year old Brie and Nikki Bella rubbed elbows with the cadets at West Point military academy in New York on Tuesday for the annual "Tribute to the Troops" special on NBC.
But it wasn't some dumbed down cakewalk -- the twins had to race through the official course that cadets must complete in order to graduate.
Brie was the victor ... but the real winner ... was America.
