Adidas Classic Smoke Screen On FIFA Scandal

Published | Updated

Adidas -- All Day I Dream About Stalling.

In the wake of several FIFA execs being arrested for allegedly taking more than $150 MILLION in bribes, we asked Adidas if it would continue its relationship with the soccer organization.

Here's the answer we got ...

"The adidas Group is fully committed to creating a culture that promotes the highest standards of ethics and compliance, and we expect the same from our partners. Following today’s news, we can therefore only encourage FIFA to continue to establish and follow transparent compliance standards in everything they do.

adidas is the world’s leading football brand and we will continue to support football on all levels."

Classic misdirection ... issue a statement that really doesn't say anything.

Long story short ... FIFA is a big deal and Adidas doesn't want to do anything rash. Instead, issue an ambiguous statement until the dust settles.

Mission accomplished?

LETTING LOOSE

Lamar Odom channeled his inner Billy Idol this week -- dancing with himself in the middle of a party at an L.A. day club ... and TMZ Sports has the video.

L.O. was hanging out at the Bungalow Lounge in Santa Monica on Monday -- one of the most exclusive places to day drink in town -- when some music came on that clearly struck a nerve.

Odom started feelin' himself and busted out his own little two-step ... despite the fact no one else around him was gettin' down.

But who cares what everyone else was doing -- we're told Odom was having a blast all day long. By the way, no one we spoke to saw him drinking.

Odom also didn't have a date with him at the club -- probably because he's still focused on saving his marriage with Khloe Kardashian.

A little "Good News, Bad News" for Blac Chyna ...

The Good News -- she's moved on from Tyga and is now dating boxing champ J'Leon Love.

Now, let's get to the "no sex" thing ...

Love -- the WBA International Super Middleweight Champion -- is training for a big fight in Vegas on June 20th ... and he has a very strict "no banging" policy in the weeks before a bout.

One source connected to Chyna tells us she's totally cool with J'Leon's vow of celibacy ... and she's told friends, "I feel like it's a good thing and I'll deal with it with him!"

Only 24 days to go -- but who's counting?

Colin Kaepernick Sorry for My Stupid Houston Flood Post

Colin Kaepernick is begging for forgiveness after putting up an incredibly stupid Instagram post that poked fun at the devastation caused by the floods that have been ravaging the city of Houston.

And earlier today, he posted a pic showing Houston under water with the caption, "I warned you the 7tormsComing! #Houston #PrayersUp."

Feel free to move palm to face.

By the way, at least 13 people have reportedly died in the storm.

After a fierce backlash on social media, Colin took the post down ... and posted a new note on Twitter:

"I'm so sorry about my insensitive post earlier today. I didn't fully understand how many people are struggling in Houston right now and I feel horrible. My prayers are with everyone there."

Ray McDonald 911 'He's Drunk' 'I'm Freaking Out'

Published | Updated

Ray McDonald's baby mama says she was "freaking out" and scared because the NFL player was drunk during an alleged domestic violence incident Monday morning.

McDonald's ex-fiancee called 911 around 3:45 AM to report an incident at an apartment in Santa Clara, CA that Ray pays for.

During the call, Ray's ex sounds frantic and informs the 911 operator that Ray is "drunk" -- but help was delayed because the woman called from her cell phone ... and officials needed to figure out which PD had jurisdiction over the situation.

Eventually, Ray was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence after the ex-Chicago Bears player allegedly attacked the woman while she was holding their young child.

Lamar Odom He's Saying There's a Chance ... Khloe's Still My Girl!

Published | Updated

Lamar Odom is finally saying it on camera -- he still thinks a reunion with Khloe Kardashian is possible ... which seems to explain why their divorce is on hold.

Lamar dropped the bombshell in Santa Monica on Monday -- the photog asked if there's a chance they'll get back together, and LO responded, "Of course."

There's more ... he goes on to say KK is "still my girl," and the audio is a little low, but we're pretty sure he added ... "That's my wife."

He ain't lying. Although Khloe filed divorce docs in December 2013 -- there's been no movement on either of their parts for more than a year. As TMZ first told you ... a judge is threatening to dismiss the divorce filing due to lack of action.

Watch ... Lamar's saying exactly what our sources say -- right now, all signs point to NO divorce.

Also interesting -- Lamar's out on the social scene again. He hit up DBA nightclub in Hollywood last night. No evidence though he was dancing the way Khloe did in Vegas.

PIECE OF CAKE

More proof Shaq is really REALLY strong ... he just did a full set of seated rows at the gym using all of the weight on the machine .... PLUS AN ENTIRE CHRIS WEBBER.

The two former NBA stars and current TNT employees hit the gym together in Cleveland ... where Shaq decided to show off a little bit.

Check out the clip ... Shaq says he's going to lift C-Webb "instead of take shots" -- which could be a reference to the drama involving Webber and his old Fab Five teammates.

FYI -- Webber has been going back and forth with Jalen Rose stemming from a rift over a documentary about their legendary college hoops days at Michigan. Maybe Shaq was suggesting they worked it out already.

And if not ... it's still a pretty incredible feat of strength -- Chris reportedly weighs about 245 pounds.

50 Cent Boxing Company Goes Bankrupt

Published | Updated

Huge blow for 50 Cent's boxing company SMS Promotions -- TMZ Sports has learned the rapper's company has just filed for bankruptcy ... though it vows to stay in business.

50 started SMS Promotions back in 2012 ... and signed some pretty big names in the sport, including then-undefeated champion Yuriorkis Gamboa, James Kirkland and Olympic medalist Andre Dirrell.

But apparently, the boxing biz hasn't been as kind to 50 as it has been to others like his pal Floyd Mayweather ... because according to court docs obtained by TMZ Sports, the company filed for Chapter 11 on May 25th.

In court docs filed in Connecticut, SMS says it has between $100k and $500k in debts.

SMS just put on a fight in Connecticut on May 15th -- though it clearly wasn't enough to turn the company around.

An attorney for SMS Promotions says 50 -- aka Curtis Jackson -- made the decision to file so the business could reorganize and emerge as a stronger company.

"Under the direction of Mr. Jackson, SMS Promotions looks forward to reorganizing as a new corporate entity and becoming one of the leading promotion companies in the world of professional boxing.”
