Joseph Randle Police Report Snapped After Losing at Beer Pong ... Extremely Violent

Published | Updated

More sad and disturbing details in the arrest of ex-Cowboys running back Joseph Randle -- cops say a beer pong game was at the center of the violent incident that culminated with JR hitting people with his car.

TMZ Sports obtained a police report in which cops say they spoke with several witnesses who claim 24-year-old Randle attended a housewarming party in Wichita, KS on Feb. 21st and played a game of beer pong.

But an argument broke out about who won the match -- with Randle pushing the opposing player onto the balcony of the home. The other man apologized and the situation was briefly diffused.

Randle then went downstairs and continued acting aggressive -- so the party hosts asked him to leave.

Instead, cops say Randle ran back upstairs and attacked party guests -- until several people wrangled Randle and literally pushed him out of the home.

One of the hosts followed Randle outside and asked him to leave -- instead, Randle got in the car and punched it in his direction ... striking the man at somewhere between 20 and 30 mph.

The man was thrown over the top of the car. When others came to assist the victim Randle struck again ... hitting 2 more people.

One of the female victims was hospitalized after losing consciousness several times from the attack.

Randle was eventually arrested and hit with a slew of charges including aggravated battery, threats, possession of marijuana and interfering with law enforcement.

He's being held in a Kansas jail on a $150k bond. He's due back in court at the end of the month -- at which point he's expected to be moved to a mental health facility.

Published | Updated

Mark Wahlberg has officially signed on to produce a movie about the life of NBA star Caron Butler ... this according to Caron himself.

The movie will be based on Butler's autobiography 'Tuff Juice' -- in which the Sacramento Kings forward details how he overcame a hard life as a drug dealing youth to make it to the NBA.

As we first reported, the two were in talks to turn the story into a movie back in September -- and now, Mark has signed an agreement essentially buying the rights to Caron's story.

"I’m excited to take the next step towards sharing my story with an even larger audience and it’s a blessing to have someone as well-known and respected as Mark Wahlberg by my side," Butler said.

"I wanted to tell my story because I’m living proof that it is possible to overcome adversity and make a better life for yourself and your family. The response from the book was overwhelming and when someone like Mark Wahlberg tells you that your life could be a movie, you listen."

So, who will play Caron?? He previously told us his dream actor is Michael B. Jordan.

Charles Barkley Ben Simmons Ain't NBA Ready ... Stay In School, Kid

Published | Updated

Bottom dwelling NBA teams hoping to land LSU freshman Ben Simmons are WASTING THEIR TIME ... 'cause according to Charles Barkley, Simmons isn't ready for the big time just yet.

We got Barkley out in NYC and asked if he thought Simmons -- the consensus #1 pick in this summer's draft -- was ready for the NBA after just one season down on the bayou.

It's not a crazy question ... LSU has struggled this season and as good as Ben looks, some wonder if the lack of team success means the 6'10" walking double-double has a little more learning to do.

Count Barkley in with that crew ... telling our camera guy that in his opinion NO KID should leave school before two years in ... and Simmons is no different.
