His football knowledge is limited, but Harvey Levin knows MONEY -- so with fantasy football season underway, our fearless leader has put together some tips that could help you win MILLIONS!!!

It's all part of DraftKings' $10M Millionaire Maker Contest -- which starts Sept 13th at 1PM EST. It's $20 to enter, but if you're any good ... it can go a loooooong way!

So, without further ado, take it away Haaaaarv!!!

Fantasy Musts

Odell Beckham Jr. -- "Two words -- Amber. Rose. These two seem to be banging now ... and if he wants to keep bangin' her, he better put up some numbers this year. #motivation."

Peyton Manning -- "If he can conquer pizza, he can conquer the AFC. Dominating the pizza business is hard work, but Peyton is crushing it with all of his Papa John's restaurants. Still a winner to me."

Fantasy Busts

Drew Brees -- "I usually like Drew Brees. But I saw the video of him killing the crocodile with Bear Grylls and it really rubbed me the wrong way. Crocodile karma is a bitch. I think he's in trouble."

Redfoo was pretty awesome Friday night ... pooh-poohing people who believe Drake's presence at the U.S. Open is why Serena lost.

The LMFAO singer really broke it down outside the Saddle Ranch on the Sunset Strip.

Draya Michele got everyone hooked into the greatest game of hide-and-please-don't-seek ... EVER.

Orlando Scandrick's fiancée (last we checked, anyway) wigged out and posed ... seemingly bottomless for a bikini photo shoot in a desert somewhere.

We know -- what kind of bikini model ditches her bikini bottom? The answer, sadly, is one who just wants you to THINK she's flashing her bits.

Yeah, Draya revealed she was not getting back to nature, and instead she was just wearing super micro swimwear. Not that anyone's complaining,

Ronda Rousey is crushing the fast food world about as quickly as she does MMA opponents -- her sexy commercial has Carl's Jr. grill jockeys slangin' at near record levels.

Diana Nyad, the woman who made that record-setting swim from Cuba to Miami (at freakin' 64) ... let us in on exactly HOW Hillary Clinton flexed her political muscle to make it happen.

Nyad was out in Beverly Hills when we asked about her name coming up in Hillary's email debacle. As it's been reported, Nyad got in touch with Hill because her trek was starting on Cuban soil, and she needed U.S. government clearance.

But you have to hear her recount the convo with then Secretary of State Clinton. It sounds like some classic DC power brokering.

As for whether that's enough to get Diana's vote in 2016? She said of course it is, and then took a little jab at the competition.

Bonus boxing coverage: Check out Diana breaking down tonight's Mayweather-Berto fight. Despite Andre's 30-3 record, she calls the bout "a sham" ... and that's just for starters.

The pictures pretty much tell the story ... Serena Williams and Drake leave the U.S. Open after her stunning loss.

Serena and Drake got in a waiting SUV as they beat a hasty retreat after the match ... she was still wearing her tennis outfit.

The NYPD just released video of a NYPD plainclothed cop ferociously grabbing former tennis star James Blake, throwing him to the ground and cuffing him.

The video shows Blake's description was not an undersell. You see him standing just outside the door of a Mid-City hotel when the cop swoops in, shoving him to the ground.

Police Commissioner Bill Bratton has apologized, saying Blake looks very similar to a guy who was a suspect in a credit card fraud case. Turns out that guy was innocent and the real suspect is still on the loose.

Drake is the new Jessica Simpson ... because he showed up Friday to watch girlfriend Serena Williams in the U.S. Open ... and she lost!!!

Williams was on the road to making history as only the sixth player ever to win all 4 grand slams in a year ... but that dream got derailed by Roberta Vinci, who beat Williams in 3 sets.

Drake was there to cheer her on to victory ... the first time he's watched her there. To be fair, he was present when Serena won at Wimbledon.

After the loss, Serena was understandably devastated -- but watch for her comment about Vinci's age. Is she throwing praise or shade?

Ex 49ers star Aldon Smith got a new team Friday ... signing with the Oakland Raiders -- but he also got charged with DUI, hit & run, and vandalism. A real good news/bad news kinda day.

As we previously reported ... Smith was busted last month after allegedly smashing his car into his neighbor's parked car. Aldon fled according to cops ... only to return, where he was arrested for DUI.

Talk about coincidence -- the Santa Clara D.A. decided to charge Smith today, and the D.A.'s Office tells us ... he's facing up to 2 1/2 years in county jail, if convicted.

Lewis Hamilton took a Rihanna detour (it's the thing to do, after all) ... but ended up right back with Kendall Jenner -- 'cause they were spotted out in NYC together looking pretty cozy.

The Kendall/Lewis rumors started swirling earlier this year when she was walking around the Monaco Grand Prix wearing what looked like his chain.

But then hurricane Rihanna started blowing in August, and it sure as hell looked like Lewis had moved on ... but you know how RiRi romances go.

Cut to NYC ... where it's now Fashion week. It's a huge event for KJ, so it's interesting that Lewis is hanging with her again. Kinda like when she showed up in Monaco for him.

The Floyd Mayweather/Andre Berto fight is getting a little taste of the Fugees ... rapper Wyclef Jean will perform the Haitian national anthem before the fighters throw down.

SHENANIGANS!!!!!

Mike Epps says he smells the B.S. in the air from a mile away ... telling TMZ Sports he thinks Floyd Mayweather is paying Andre Berto to take a dive because "boxing's f**ked up."

Epps is a huge boxing fan -- but when we ran into the comic in L.A. this week, he seemed super disappointed with the big fight this weekend.

"I think people wanna see a REAL fight," Epps told us ... explaining why people are ready to see Floyd fight against someone who has a legit shot to beat him.

"We wanna see him lose at least one time."

That's when Mike suggested the fix is in ... and told our guy the only way Mayweather can save his rep is if he fights someone like Triple G!!

Former WWE Hulk Hogan is bouncing back from the n-word scandal that ended his WWE career ... by signing on as the spokesman for a major sports gambling website.

He's still not 100% ... but Victor Cruz fought through his calf injury ... to hit up Rihanna's block party at NY Fashion Week Thursday night.

Cruz hasn't practiced in weeks -- and there's serious doubt about whether he'll be ready to hit the field on Sunday night in Dallas.

But last night, Cruz was definitely ready ... to party ... hitting up the New York Edition Hotel with his fiancee Elaina Watley.

No deflated footballs this time ... but the Pittsburgh Steelers are strongly insinuating the New England Patriots executed a diabolic illegal plan Thursday night to screw Steelers coaches ... involving headsets.

The Steelers coaches claim their headsets were not properly functioning for the 1st quarter of last night's game ... and they're pointing the finger squarely at the Pats.

Here's an article that was posted to the Steelers' official website:

"This is the kind of stuff that happens to the visiting team in Gillette Stadium all the time. From the start of the game through the opening 14 minutes of the first quarter, the Steelers’ coaches’ headsets were receiving the Patriots Radio Network broadcast of the game."

"The broadcast was so loud that the Steelers coaches were unable to communicate, and the NFL rule is that if one team’s headsets are not working the other team is supposed to be forced to take their headsets off."

"It’s what the NFL calls the Equity Rule. Strangely enough, whenever an NFL representative proceeded to the New England sideline to shut down their headsets, the Steelers headsets cleared. Then as the representative walked away from the New England sideline, the Steelers’ headsets again started to receive the Patriots game broadcast."
