Forget TDs, Moss Served with a TRO!

NFL defenders often can't get within 5 ft. of Randy Moss. Now Randy has to stay at least 500 ft. away from a Florida woman.
According to an affidavit obtained by WDBO-AM radio and filed in Broward County, Fla., Moss committed battery upon the victim, Rachelle Washington, causing serious injury -- and then refused to allow her to seek medical attention. No criminal charges have been filed.
Moss denied the allegations today and said the woman is trying to get money from him. He said, "I want to make something clear, in my whole entire life of living 30 years, I've never put my hand on one woman, physically or in an angry manner."
A hearing in the case is scheduled for January 28 -- the Monday before the Super Bowl.
Calls to Moss' attorney and a rep for the Patriots were not immediately returned.

Crazazy cornerback Pacman Jones has gotten backed into yet another legal red zone, with a Nashville woman alleging that Jones punched her at an Atlanta strip club.
Wanda S. Jackson, a lawyer, says she was in the Body Tap Strip Club's office (not dancing) when Jones came in to complain about his money and a bracelet being stolen. After leaving the office, Jackson alleges, Jones "sucker punched" her as she followed him out.

It would be Jones' seventh arrest since being drafted by the Tennessee Titans in 2005. He's currently serving a one-year suspension.

San Diego Chargers superstar linebacker Shaun Phillips was either celebrating Sunday's win over the Indianapolis Colts by partying it up at Hyde last night -- or drinking away the pain of the loss his team is sure to suffer this Sunday at the hands of the New England Patriots. (Not that we're NE fans ... we're just realistic.)
Phillips chatted it up outside the club with Porscha Coleman and "Deal or No Deal" model Claudia Jordan -- a self-professed Pats fan. Shaun's got a better chance of scoring with her than he does against the Patriots.

Screw the Hulk, forget the Ultimate Warrior -- the WWE is on a hardcore mission to get Britney Spears in the ring!
Several musclebound behemoths from the wacky wrestling franchise are courting Spears to join them for combat -- some even enticing her by calling her "fat!" And since Brit has always called herself "country," perhaps a good ol' drag through the mud is just what she needs!
But not all the wrastlers want to fight Brit; WWE head Vince McMahon also authorized this article which suggests that he and the pop tart should hook up -- as in bedroom tag team partners?! Eek.
Let's get it on, y'all!

A judge has just sentenced disgraced Olympic champion Marion Jones to six months in prison. Gimme that medal!
Jones, who recently returned her three gold and two bronze medals, had begged a judge to keep her out of the slammer. The 31-year-old former runner and long jumper was one of the most celebrated female athletes in the world -- until it was revealed she routinely used performance-enhancing drugs.
She recently admitted to lying to a federal investigator in 2003, and confessed that she took steroids "several times before the Sydney Olympics and continued using it after." What a role model.

A former U.S. figure skating champ, Christopher "The Showman" Bowman, 40, was found dead yesterday in a motel room -- and cops say the cause may be a drug overdose.
Bowman was found by a friend on Thursday morning at a Budget Inn in North Hills, Calif., according to cops. His mother, Joyce, told the Detroit Free Press, "He just passed away in his sleep. His friend told me that he was fine. He just went to bed and didn't wake up."
As a skater, Bowman was known for his showmanship. He skated in the Olympics in 1988 and 1992. He had previously been in treatment for drug problems.

We were as confused as anyone when Hulk Hogan gave us his assessment of the Britney Spears situation. It involved -- well, just take a look.
Hulk also dropped a ton of other knowledge on us, like the fact that daughter Brooke is "auditioning" for "Dancing with the Stars" (wha?) and that his new show "American Gladiators" is getting picked up for a full season. And that's reason for celebration?

Everybody wants their little one to grow up Brady.
New England Patriots quarterback (do we really have to explain?) Tom Brady was dogged yesterday in NYC by a fan who just happened to have named one of his little foofy pooches "Tom Brady." We're pretty sure he wasn't kidding.
And yes, Brady was carrying his own small dog. Probably Gisele's. We think.
