Tom Brady Runnin' Offense For UCLA Football Team
Josh Rosen out ... TOM BRADY IN!!!
The New England Patriots stud showed up to the UCLA football facilities in L.A. on Friday for a special workout with the Bruins players ... and c'mon, how awesome is that?!
Brady was throwing the ball around and dishing out advice to some of the players at the Wasserman Football Center in Westwood. One of the prospects pictured is 3-star QB Austin Burton.
Interesting considering all the rumblings that 40-year-old Tom might retire instead of coming back for the 2018 season. This looks like a guy ready to hang it up to you? Didn't think so.
Meanwhile, the UCLA social media team used the workout to throw a little low-key shade at their cross town rival, USC ... tweeting out, "OnlyAtUCLA."

Josh Allen College Town Floods Streets to Celebrate Draft Pick!!
Josh Allen's old stomping grounds were turnt to the max when the ex-Wyoming star got drafted by the Bills ... with tons of people crackin' beers and cheering in the streets when his name got called!!
Fans in Laramie, WY went nuts outside the Buckhorn Bar when the Bills selected Allen with the 7th overall pick ... just watch the beer suds fly!
Some experts predicted Allen would be the #1 pick ... but after the Twitter scandal, he fell down to #7.
The fans didn't care -- they celebrated like Allen just won the Super Bowl.
FYI, Allen isn't from Wyoming -- he was actually born and raised in Northern California -- but after 3 years playing for the Cowboys, the locals are clearly claiming him as one of their own.

Good luck!

Josh Rosen Turns Up After NFL Draft ... It's a Dance Party!
If Josh Rosen REALLY has a chip on his shoulder after getting picked 10th, he didn't show it after the NFL Draft -- because he was in a GREAT mood celebrating at a post-event dance party!!
Rosen, along with family members and close friends, was all smiles at a nearby hot spot in Dallas -- where the QB and his crew got a special private area to celebrate his new job with the AZ Cardinals.
There were bottle service girls, signs that read "Cards" -- and Sheck Wes' "Mo Bamba" banging from the speakers.
Afterward, Rosen kept the party going back at the hotel -- dancing away like he just became a millionaire ... because he just did!
Yeah, he might have been the 4th QB selected -- but he's still a FIRST-ROUND DRAFT PICK!
Congrats!!

Kim Kardashian On the Khloe/Tristan Situation ... It's 'So F***ed Up'
Kim Kardashian doesn't know how else to say it -- what went down with Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson when Khloe was about to have their child is beyond messed up.
Kim rather bluntly breaks her silence on the Tristan cheating scandal on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show"... but says she doesn't want to get too negative about the ordeal because there's a baby involved. She already has experience dealing with that in the family.
Kim reassures everyone her sister is strong and doing her best to get through everything and focus on being a good mom, but still -- as she and Ellen both say ... poor Khloe.
We broke the story ... Tristan was caught on a security video cheating on Khloe with 2 women at a hookah lounge. Khloe gave birth to True Thompson less than 2 days later.
Yep, pretty f***ed up.
Ellen's full interview with Kim airs Monday, April 30.

Luke was ringside at Karate Combat: Inception -- where the fighters are driven to the ring in Rolls-Royces and then walk through a parking lot of supercars before actually fighting.
The guest list was invite only -- and Rockhold made the cut to watch Dionicio Gustavo take on Alexandre Bouderbane, a part-time fitness model.
Things turned brutal when Gustavo cracked Bouderbane with an overhand right -- sending the model crumpling to the ground.
Ice up.

Dwyane Wade Father/Son Lob Sesh ... Watch My Kid Dunk!!
Dwyane Wade is about to do something your dad can't do -- and his son is about to do something you probably can't ... and even worse, they're doing it TOGETHER.
Enjoy this father/son dunk session.
It starts with Wade, who lobs the ball off the backboard to his 16-year-old (and budding hoops star) Zaire, who throws it down 2-handed off the glass.
The family sharing didn't stop there, because then Zaire threw one jelly-style off the glass to the 36-year-old Wade, who rocked it EASILY, proving daddy's still got some bounce.
Get your dad off the couch and go be great.

Pete Rose Denies Gambling Debt ... Reveals Serious Heart Condition
-
EXCLUSIVE
- 3 shares
Pete Rose admits he is more than a MILLION DOLLARS in debt -- but the baseball legend is adamant it has nothing to do with a high stakes gambling problem.
The 77-year-old also claims he has a heart condition and has undergone 3 procedures in the last 5 years.
It's all part of the new docs Rose filed in his nasty divorce war with his estranged wife, Carol Rose ... who recently claimed Pete still makes $100,000 per month, yet still owes massive gambling debts.
"I have NO gambling debts," Rose writes in the new court filing obtained by TMZ Sports.
Pete also claims the $100k number is just wrong ... he only makes $54k per month and sends $20k to Carol as part of his monthly support obligation.
As for his IRS debt, Rose says he owes Uncle Sam more than $1,000,000 -- but notes he's been paying $20k per month to make things right.
Pete says he's been trying to officially end his marriage to Carol since 2008, but Carol keeps dragging things out.
Rose notes that he proposed to his girlfriend in 2009 and wants to wrap up the divorce, so he can marry his fiancee already.

NFL Rookie's Mom Bears Drafted My Son But, I'm Still a Falcons Fan (For Now)
Talk about team loyalty ...
The mother of Chicago Bears 1st-round draft pick Roquan Smith says she's still a die-hard ATL Falcons fan and will NOT abandon her team.
At least not yet!
The video is great ... we got Smith's mom right after the Bears drafted her 6'1", 235-pound linebacker son with the 8th overall pick and you can tell she's having a crisis of conscience -- root for her hometown team or the team that's paying her son millions of dollars?!
"I'll keep both," mama Smith told us ... "I'm from Georgia, I'm in Georgia."
Before you start to think a family feud is brewing, we got Roquan a little later and asked him how long it'd take for his mom to become a full-time Bears fan.
"Not long at all."
BTW, last years 8th pick singed a $17 million contract, so we're betting Roquan is right here.

Fred Jackson Bills Players Will Forgive Josh Allen ... For Racist Tweets
Josh Allen will get a chance to prove he's not a racist idiot when he gets to Buffalo Bills training camp -- so says Bills legend Fred Jackson, who thinks the players will forgive Allen's teenage tweets.
Of course, Allen has already apologized for dropping the n-word on Twitter when he was a teenager. It also came out he tweeted about A.J. McCarron's wife ... awkward since they're teammates now.
This AJ McCarron-Josh Allen QB battle is going to be a war pic.twitter.com/A4xwr93H9l
@barstoolsports
But Jackson -- who played for the Bills from 2006 to 2014 -- says the players will "let the past be the past and move forward."
"It's something that you just put in the back of your mind and don't even worry about it."
Easier said than done, though, right?!
As for Jackson, the recently retired running back -- and Bills' 3rd all-time leading rusher -- says he just completed a broadcasting boot camp and hopes to transition to the booth.
Good luck!

Von Miller Loses His Mind After Broncos Draft Chubb
Von Miller went absolutely BONKERS after the Broncos drafted Bradley Chubb Thursday night -- screaming from the top of his Vegas hotel ... even getting his own daddy in on the party!
The Broncos took 6'4", 270-pound defensive end Chubb with the 5th pick in the draft -- making the Denver defense even scarier than before!
Chubb was a freak at NC State -- racking up all sorts of awards including the Bronko Nagurski Trophy, which goes to the best defensive player in college football. He also won the 2017 ACC Defensive Player of the Year.
Miller is VERY excited -- he even worked up a sweat celebrating. And we get it ... Chubb once broke his finger during a game and KEPT PLAYING! Dude is a monster.
So, who's NOT fired up about the new Chubb and Miller duo? Every other offense in the AFC West.
Congrats!

Lamar Jackson I'm Excited to Learn from RG3
Lamar Jackson is STOKED to be on the same team as another Heisman Trophy winner -- telling TMZ Sports he can't wait to LEARN from RG3.
After Jackson was selected by the Baltimore Ravens with the 32nd pick in the draft, Lamar was hanging with his family in Dallas and celebrating the moment.
There's talk that there could be some tension between Jackson and Robert Griffin III because of their similar playing style -- but Lamar doesn't see it that way at all ... describing RG3 as more of a mentor.
Jackson also says Kobe Bryant sent him a signed Lakers jersey as a show of support before the draft -- and now, he can't wait to return the favor ... and hook Mamba up with some signed Ravens threads.
Pretty great stuff.

Jim Brown Is Not Happy With Baker Mayfield Pick
Jim Brown was REALLY pushing for his Cleveland Browns to select Saquon Barkley with the #1 overall pick ... so how did he feel when CLE took Baker Mayfield instead?
Let's just say he's not thrilled about it.
We spotted the NFL Hall of Famer in Dallas, TX after Baker officially became the next in line for an offense that's had 28 starting quarterbacks since 1999. Obviously, we had to ask his thoughts.
Don't get it twisted ... there are a lot of Browns fans who believe Mayfield can be the guy to turn things around in Cleveland with his rocket arm and in-your-face personality.
... just doesn't seem like the 82-year-old legend is a believer -- at least not yet.

Usain Bolt 'Door Is Open' for Olympic Return ... But Unlikely
So you're saying there's a chance!!!
Usain Bolt tells TMZ Sports ... the "door is open" to unretire and compete in the 2020 Olympics -- but right now he doesn't have the urge.
"I don't think so," Bolt said when asked about a return to the track ... "But when I see competition I definitely feel like I want to."
"I don't have the urge right now. Maybe when it comes around to the Olympics you never know ... but right now I don't."
Instead, Bolt says he's dead serious about pursuing a soccer career ... with real hopes of joining a pro team -- possibly in the MLS.
In the meantime, Bolt is also challenging less physically athletic people to a video game war through the Xbox Game Pass Challenge ... and he's talking smack!!!

NFL Draft Browns Take QB with Top Pick Welcome to Cleveland, Baker!!!
The pick is in ... the Cleveland Browns have selected Baker Mayfield as the first overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft!!!
Baker's story is pretty incredible -- he went from being a walk-on at Oklahoma to being the reigning Heisman Trophy winner. He threw for 129 TDs and just 29 interceptions in his college career.
Now, Mayfield has been given the task of turning around a miserable Browns franchise, which has combined for 4 total wins in the past 3 seasons ... including ZERO in 2017.
The next top picks in the draft are expected to be Saquon Barkley, Bradley Chubb, Quenton Nelson and of course ... fellow QBs Sam Darnold, Josh Allen and Josh Rosen.
BTW -- commish Roger Goodell got booed heavily once again when he walked out to open the Draft, even though he was joined by a group of Dallas Cowboys legends ... in Texas! Roger Staubach, Troy Aikman and Jason Witten got their cheers later, though.
Baker was clearly overjoyed by the selection ... breaking down in tears when he found out he was going to Cleveland.
