GREEN MAN!!

Charlie Day brought out his neon green bodysuit Wednesday night to serve as the PERFECT addition to Arizona State's "Curtain of Distraction" Wednesday night ... and it worked!!

FYI -- The Curtain is what ASU students do to mess with the opposing team's free throw shooters by revealing someone acting like a jabroni as the player is about to shoot.

"It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" fans will easily recognize Charlie's signature tailgating outfit -- and it proved effective, 'cause the Cal player missed his free throw.

As for the game ... ASU could've used some more of Day's distracting skills, 'cause the Bears ran away with the W.

Tom Brady has committed to a private autograph session for hardcore collectors -- but if you want in, you gotta have serious cash.

We spoke with the Tristar sports memorabilia company which confirmed Brady is on board for a session in March. The company has done similar signings with Brady in the past.

Basically, you tell the company what you want signed and TB12 will sign it.

Footballs -- $1,000 each

Autographed photo -- $850

Patriots mini-helmet -- $900

Tom Brady "game day" style jersey -- $1,200

Want him to add the words "5X SB CHAMP"? ... that'll be an extra $400.

He'll also add a 20 character personalization for an additional $500.

Here's Michael Rapaport playing the role of his NY Knicks hero, Charles Oakley, during his altercation at The Garden Wednesday night.

What do you do when Maria Sharapova has no answers for your questions? ASK THE FONZ ... 'cause Henry Winkler just stepped in for the tennis star and played publicist for her in L.A.

It all started when we got Maria at LAX, and wanted to know some really hard-hitting questions about her training regimen during her suspension and her mindset when she comes back.

Maria was mum ... but lucky for us, Henry Winkler showed up outta nowhere (literally, guy just appeared) and answered every burning question our photog had.

Charles Oakley says he has NO IDEA why he was kicked out of Madison Square Garden before things got physical with security Wednesday night ... swearing he has nothing but LOVE for the Knicks.

After Oakley was released from police custody, he sat down with a friend of his from Jimmy's NYC restaurant and calmly gave his side of the story.

Oakley also told the The NY Daily News he did NOT put his hands on Knicks owner Jimmy Dolan -- saying, "I was there for four minutes" ... I didn't say anything to him. I swear on my mother."

"They came over and wanted to know why I was sitting there. I bought the ticket. I said, 'Why do you guys keep staring at me?' Then they asked me to leave. And I said I'm not leaving."

Oakley was arrested and charged with 3 counts of misdemeanor assault and 1 count of trespassing.

Oakley's rep Akhtar Farzaie tells TMZ Sports, "Charles loves the Knicks, loves the fans, loves the city of NY."

"Oak bought his ticket to support the team and was told he was ordered to leave without reason ... anyone would be furious!"

NFL legend Jim Brown says Kanye West is alone in jumping off the Trump train ... telling TMZ Sports he's still 100% dedicated to working with POTUS to help poor people in inner cities.

7:31 PM PT -- NYPD officials tell TMZ Sports Oakley was arrested on 3 counts of misdemeanor assault. He is still in police custody.

Charles Oakley got into an ugly altercation in the stands during the first quarter of Wednesday night's Knicks game, and struck 2 security staffers ... one of them in the face, apparently.

Everyone wants to know how much the missing Tom Brady Super Bowl jersey is worth -- so we went right to the expert, Rick Harrison from "Pawn Stars."

Bottom line -- Rick says it could easily fetch $200,000 ... but there's one pretty significant catch.

Harrison also says there's another piece of memorabilia from Super Bowl 51 that could be worth EVEN MORE.

Think Jeezy regrets leaving the Super Bowl early ... before OVERTIME?? Hell no. He'd do it again.

We couldn't believe our eyes when we saw him leave the game in Houston right before the very first OT Super Bowl game in NFL history ... but Jeezy said he wanted to beat the traffic.

Now that he knows how it went down (historic, unreal finish), Jeezy says he's got no regrets because he knows ATL will be back in the big game next year.

Yeah ... sure.

MLB slugger Bryce Harper's getting back in the swing of things ... and it took a real nasty toll on his hands.

Here's a photo showing what hours in the cage can do to your palms ... even when you're arguably the best hitter in the world.

New info has come to light in the hunt for the Tom Brady Super Bowl jersey ... and could all come down to the search of an 18-wheeler that was packed up right after the game.

TMZ Sports spoke with law enforcement sources involved in the search who tell us they are "hopeful" the jersey was put on a team equipment truck destined for Boston.

We're told the truck was never thoroughly searched before it left NRG Stadium in Houston -- and contains all sorts of team and player equipment.

Our sources tell us the truck is scheduled to be unpacked in Boston on Thursday and cops are crossing their fingers the #12 jersey turns up!

Detective Shaq has joined the Tom Brady Super Bowl jersey investigation ... and he already has a theory -- INSIDE JOB!!!

FYI, Shaq has been a sworn reserve police officer with real law enforcement agencies in several states including California, Florida and Arizona. He even did some work with the Dept. of Justice.

So, with TB12's jersey still M.I.A. ... we asked Officer O'Neal (who was leaving the Oreo Dunk Challenge) if he had a hunch on who may have jacked the piece of Super Bowl history.

There's more ... Shaq also sets the record straight on his beef with his "Inside the NBA" co-star, Charles Barkley, and how things went down off camera following their heated exchange last week.

If ever a video was gonna make you get up and get your lazy ass to the gym, it's this one ... 81-year-old golf legend Gary Player burning up a treadmill with all the AARP swag in the universe.

Player is notorious for his fountain of youth fitness habits, and even posed nude in ESPN The Magazine's Body issue at 77 ... but we gotta say, this might be even more impressive.

Look, is he Usain Bolt? No. Is he going harder than we do? HELL YEAH!!!

Migos ain't about to join the Lady Gaga body shamers ... because they know all the hate just comes with being great.

We got the rappers at LAX ... they all think Gaga looked boujee as hell at the Super Bowl, and sent a message to all the trolls out there.

The guys seem cool about not getting a call to join her for the halftime show too ... in fact, they give a pretty clear signal they'd still be down with a future collabo.

Conor McGregor is staying in fighting shape -- brushing up on his boxing skills just in case that superfight with Floyd Mayweather actually happens.

He looked okay. Throwing some decent shots. Flashing good power.

Mark Cuban's buying some of what President Trump's selling so far, but still thinks he won't last in the White House.

Mark was in NYC Wednesday morning and told us he's all-in for a lot of what the prez has done -- mostly with finance and business. On the other hand ... he skewered Trump for his handling of the immigration ban, and declared, "I don't think he'll last 4 years."
