Published | Updated

Gronk got another movie role!!!

Rob Gronkowski grabbed his badge and his gun to play a cop for the new flick, "You Can't Have It" -- which stars Joanna Krupa and Armand Assante.

Unclear what the movie's about -- but Rob ain't the only Gronk with a role ... his brother Dan Gronkowski also plays a cop.

It's a big move for Gronk who previously told us he's into the Hollywood scene -- and at the very least, he's flirting with the idea of becoming a movie star after his playing days are over.

Top NFL Prospect Busted For DUI By Florida State Univ. Cops [Update]

Published | Updated

Officials say ... P.J. Williams was leaving a McDonald's parking lot when he made an illegal left turn and was pulled over. Cops also say he was swerving and almost hit a curb.

During the stop, cops say they noticed Williams was driving a rental car on a suspended license.

According to the police report, cops say Williams was swaying and slurring his speech -- but refused to take a breathalyzer test.

Instead, he told cops he "just wanted to go home" ... and advised the officers he was an FSU football player.

That didn't happen -- instead he went to jail. According to court records, Williams is scheduled to face a judge on May 14th.

Former Florida State cornerback P.J. Williams -- a projected 1st round NFL Draft pick -- was arrested for DUI in Florida early this morning ... and he was popped by FSU cops.

Williams JUST had his pro day at FSU on Tuesday -- and left a very positive impression on NFL scouts going into the April 30th draft.

But now, he's pretty screwed ... with NFL Network's Albert Breer reporting that the 21-year-old was taken into custody early Friday morning.

According to officials, P.J. was arrested around 3 AM and booked at 5:30 AM.

Sources tell us the arrest was made by the Florida State University Police Department.

Williams posted $500 bond -- and was released this morning.

'New Girl' Star Jay Cutler Can Be a Winner ... If He Starts Bangin' Gisele

Published | Updated

Well, this doesn't bode well for Kristin Cavallari.

If Chicago Bears QB Jay Cutler wants to turn things around and start playing like a winner ... he's gotta do things that winners do -- and that starts with banging Gisele.

At least, that's the strategy "New Girl" star Lamorne Morris -- a HUGE Chicago Bears fan -- was recommending when we talked to the guy at The Improv in L.A. last night.

"Until [Cutler] starts inserting himself into Gisele every night ... she has a magical vagina ... then I will believe in him."

Hey, at least he has a plan.

Shaquille O'Neal Ripped by Judge For Insta-Shaming But Lawsuit Gets Tossed Anyway

Published | Updated

Shaquille O'Neal was way out of line when he took an Instagram potshot at an innocent guy's face -- but he's still gonna get away without paying the guy a cent ... according to a Michigan judge.

According to legal docs obtained by TMZ Sports ... the lawsuit filed last summer by Jahmel Binion just got dismissed because of a jurisdictional technicality.

We broke the story ... Binion sued Shaq and rapper Waka Flocka Flame for defamation after they posted his pic with captions making fun of his face. Binion has a disorder that causes facial deformities and limited hair growth.

Based on the docs, it's clear the judge thinks Shaq was a jerk for doing this. He calls Shaq's comments, "highly offensive." The problem for Binion is he filed the suit in Michigan federal court and since Shaq has no residence or business dealings in Michigan ... he can't be dragged to court there.

There is a silver lining for Binion. Waka never responded to the lawsuit -- so, according to the docs ... he might lose by default.

Mickey Rourke to Pacquiao: I Don't Want Free Tix I'd Rather Watch at Home

Published | Updated

Mickey Rourke says he doesn't care that Manny Pacquiao's camp won't hook him up with free fight tickets -- 'cause he doesn't wanna go anyway!!!!

Anyone buyin' that?

As we previously reported, Pac's promoter Bob Arum told Mickey he'd have to buy "his own damn tickets" if he wanted to be ringside ... even though he and Manny train at the same L.A. boxing gym.

But when we got Mickey out yesterday, not only did he blow off the ticket thing ... the 62-year-old also told us he wants to get back in the ring himself!!

You know ... 'cause it went so well last time.

'Sugar' Shane Mosley Blasted by BKB Champ ... You're a Fat, Washed Up Bitch

Published | Updated

Ex boxing champ "Sugar" Shane Mosley got smacked up, verbally -- and damn near physically -- during an explosive pre-fight news conference for this weekend's BKB Championship bout.

The video is intense ... so here's what you need to know: the BKB middleweight champ is Gabe Rosado (scary dude with tatts and shades) and the challenger is Curtis Stevens (not so scary dude in Giants hat). They don't like or respect each other one bit.

The scene erupted Thursday in Las Vegas when 29-year-old Gabe and his trainer started calling out Mosley. 43-year-old Shane trained Curtis, but ended up getting called out for being overrated, fat, and a bitch ... for starters. And for some reason, the entire state of North Dakota got dissed too.

It seems a little scripted, but it definitely hypes the fight -- going down Saturday night on PPV. Don King would be proud.

Sidenote: If you don't know what BKB (Big Knockout Boxing) is ... it's pretty awesome. Much smaller ring, no ropes, and a ton of knockouts. Mike Tyson would be proud.

UFC's Josh Koscheck Someone KO'd My Teeth (Don't Worry, I've Got Backups)

Published | Updated

You know how tough Josh Koscheck is?? He tried to eat a steak last night ... without his two front teeth!!

The UFC superstar was leaving Boa Steakhouse ... looking a little more Michael Strahan-ish in the mouth region than usual -- so we had to ask, what's up with your grill?!

Don't worry, Josh always carries backups ... and popped in a couple of FAKE TEETH to fill in the gaps during our conversation (we asked about retirement, his answer is interesting).

See, Tiger Woods ... no reason to be so embarrassed!!

Larry Flynt I'm Betting On Pacquiao ... But Something's Fishy

Published | Updated

Larry Flynt is not an idiot ... so when he suggests there are dark forces at work behind the scenes of the Mayweather vs. Pacquiao fight -- it's worth a listen.

The Hustler mogul was leaving The Palm restaurant in Beverly Hills last night ... when he gave us a very interesting answer to the whole "Who ya got?" question.

Check out the video ... Flynt says he thinks Mayweather should win the fight, but he's betting on Pacquiao -- and why?

Well ... it all comes down to money.

Mike Tyson Church Bought My Mansion?? ... Awesome!!!

Published | Updated

Mike Tyson has officially given his blessing to the church looking to move into his old digs ... telling TMZ Sports he thinks the pad's residential resurrection is pretty damn awesome.

Tyson was out in NYC when we asked the ex-champ if he knew his old Ohio den of sin had been bought by a developer who plans to turn it into a House of the Lord.

As we previously reported, Mike got rid of the 5 bedroom, 7.5 bath mega-mansion in 1999 ... but the property still has some trademark Tyson decor ... including a massive hot tub with mirrored ceilings.

Check out the clip -- Iron Mike lights up at the idea of his spot being turned into a worship center.

It's never too late to change ... it's just a lot easier for inanimate objects.

Muhammad Ali Family Feud Over Pacquiao vs. Mayweather

Published | Updated

There is a rift in Muhammad Ali's family ... with the champ's wife and daughter calling each other out over who Muhammad is rooting for in the Mayweather vs. Pacquiao fight ... TMZ Sports has learned.

We broke the story ... Ali's daughter Rasheda says her father is "Team Pacquiao" and has been a huge fan and FRIEND of Manny's for years.

But moments ago, an Ali spokesperson issued a statement seemingly calling BS on Rasheda ... saying, "The stories that Muhammad Ali has chosen a favorite in the fight are false."

We just spoke with Rasheda .... who told us she stands by her original statements -- saying, "Everything in your [TMZ Sports] original story is an absolute fact."

"It was extremely accurate. It was exactly what I said to the word."

"Honestly, truthfully, everything I said was true. He is a fan of Manny."

Rasheda adds, "For political reasons, or other reasons, or because my dad didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings, Lonnie [Muhammad's wife] didn't want him to pick a side."

"After your article came out, Lonnie was fine with it. Other outlets took the story and twisted the words around and basically made it seem like my dad was going to be sitting in Manny's corner the night of the fight."

"They made it into something else."

Daniel Gibson & Keyshia Cole The Fam That Flies Together ... Is Back Together?

Published | Updated

TMZ Sports now brings you concrete-ish evidence that the on-again/off-again marriage of former NBA star Daniel "Booby" Gibson and his R&B star wife Keyshia Cole is currently ON AS HELL.

We got video of the couple -- plus their adorable son -- out at LAX together yesterday and when we asked Booby how the relationship was doing he replied, "We're doing great."

The two were famously on bad terms until just recently ... when they were seen all over each other at the premiere of Keyshia's new reality show -- begging the question ... reconciliation?!

Canoodling at a premiere is one thing -- but making an airport trip together ... totally banging again, right?!

UFC's Frankie Edgar Let's Get Shaq In the Octagon ... He's Got Real Talent!

Published | Updated

He can hoop, he can rap, he can act (sorta) ... but can Shaquille O'Neal fight MMA?!

There's one UFC superstar who believes in the Big Fella ... Frankie "The Answer" Edgar ... who tells TMZ Sports he thinks O'Neal's got what it takes to SERIOUSLY compete in the octagon.

"He's so big," Edgar said on his way out of a Toyota party ... "He's a pretty good athlete. He can box too probably."

BTW -- Shaq's only 43-years-old ... that's 3 years YOUNGER than Randy Couture was when he fought James Toney at UFC 118. Couture also fought Lyoto Machida when he was 47.

So, will Shaq ever really fulfull his potential? Probably not ... unless this Shaq vs. Charles Barkley mega-fight ever goes down.

Darren Sharper Locked Up In New Orleans Preps for Guilty Plea

Published | Updated

Darren Sharper has touched down in New Orleans ... where prosecutors say he's expected to plead guilty to multiple counts of rape next week.

Sharper had been locked up in L.A. for more than a year -- but officials allowed him to travel to N.O. so he could appear in court for drug charges on Monday and rape charges on Tuesday.

First, the rape case ... as we previously reported, the former NFL star cut a deal with prosecutors where he'll be sentenced to 20 years in Louisiana for raping 3 women, but will only serve 9 of those years behind bars.

Sharper will get credit for the remaining 11 years while free on parole and probation.

As for the drugs ... Sharper is scheduled to appear in federal court on Monday to face charges that he illegally distributed drugs with "the intent to commit a crime of violence, that is rape."

Officials tell TMZ Sports ... Sharper is currently in a jail facility in New Orleans and is "receiving no special provisions or treatment compared to any other inmate in the facility."
