Eat Your Jockstrap Out, David Beckham
When Manchester United lost David Beckham to Real Madrid, the futbol team eventually gained one hot 6'1" slab of Portuguese man-candy in the chiseled form of Cristiano Ronaldo. Bend it like who?!
The smokin' hot 23-year-old was caught at a Manchester airport on Wednesday, looking so suave it hurts.
Who wouldn't want to play on his team!

Dwyane Wade and Star Jones Makin' Miami Heat?
Yeah, Al Reynolds is probably laughing about this too.
It's been one whole day since news broke that Star Jones filed for divorce from Al -- and already Star is being linked to Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade. The two were recently spotted together at a Miami-area tennis tournament, which probably means they're in love and soon to be married. As if.
What's next? Al Reynolds and Maria Sharapova?
Reps for both Star Jones and Dwyane Wade tell TMZ that the rumors aren't true.

T.O. P.O'd Over Porno
NFL crybaby Terrell Owens is bitching that he's no porn star -- despite the fact that a picture featuring the guy was blasted on a hardcore adult website.
The photo shows the Dallas Cowboy strolling into an adult photo shoot with a huge smile on his face. After being displayed on the porno company's site, the shot wound up on TheDirty.com with the headline "T.O. Loves Porn." Turns out, Owens loves to pick fights even more -- and immediately launched his legal team to clean up the mess.
TMZ obtained a cease and desist letter sent to folks at TheDirty.com explaining that Terrell unknowingly walked into the sticky situation. Team Terrell is also demanding the website take down the shots and "state to the public that these photographs linking Mr. Owens to porn were not done with his consent." The photo was removed from the porno site, but TheDirty has yet to follow suit.
Gotta love South Beach ... where you can accidentally walk into a porn shoot.
WWE Writer Allegedly Dishes Racist Smackdown
There's no doubt that using the n-word is stupid -- but allegedly using the n-word in front of a guy that's over six-feet-tall, weighs nearly 400 pounds and calls himself "The World's Strongest Man" is beyond idiotic. Enter WWE writer Michael Hayes.
TMZ has confirmed that Hayes, the head writer for WWE's "Smackdown," has been suspended for 60 days -- allegedly for using racist language in front of wrestler Mark Henry. Michael's haymaker was supposedly thrown while out drinking at a party during the weekend of Wrestlemania, where ProWrestling.net reports Hayes told Henry, "I'm more of a n----- than you are."
It's unknown whether or not Hayes was subsequently hit in the face with a metal chair.
A rep for the WWE released this statement: "Due to inappropriate behavior, Michael Hayes was suspended for 60 days with no pay. In order to return to work, Michael Hayes will be required to undergo further evaluation."
Olympians to Penta Water: H2-0h No You Di'n't
Olympic swimmers endorsing water. Sounds fishy, but that's exactly what happened. Now four gold medalists, including Amanda Beard, are suing a froufrou bottled water company, claiming their images are being used without permission to hawk the blue stuff.
Amanda, along with fellow speedo-heads Jason Lezak, Aaron Peirsol and Kaitlin Sandeno, are suing Penta Water Company for misappropriation of name and likeness. Here's what we know. The four swimmers signed endorsement deals with Penta, but we're told it expired in Fall 2006. Penta continues to use the endorsements, by "posting the names, images and testimonials of the Athletes on their Website."
Kaitlin, who took gold in 2004, said in the original endorsement, "I go to school with it, I wake up with it, and I go to bed with it." Clearly MENSA material.
The suit seeks unspecified damages.
Steroid Snitch Not Lookin' Over His Shoulder
He may have tried to take down some of baseball's biggest names with his accusations of steroid use, but Jason Grimsley acted like nothing ever happened. Maybe that's a side effect of the juice.
Grimsley seemed totally in the clear -- the steroid kind, not the Scientolokind -- last night when we caught up with him outside of the Plumm with owner Noel Ashman. He wasn't even the least bit bothered when we asked him about being on a Biggest Cheats list.
Olympian Alleged Victim of Date Rape Drug
Orange County sheriffs are investigating an alleged drugging of Pasha Grishuk, the biggest ice dancer in the world. Cops now tell TMZ the drug is GHB, commonly called the "date rape" drug.
The two-time Olympic gold medal winner attended a business meeting at the swanky St. Regis in the OC on April 12. Grishuk ordered a glass of wine at the table, which she briefly left unattended. After taking a few more sips, Pasha noticed a half-dissolved pill at the bottom of her glass. By the time cops and paramedics arrived, Pasha was feeling numb and ill. They also found a second glass she had been drinking from in the lounge and it had residue from a pill as well.
Jim Amormino, a spokesperson for the OC Sheriffs Dept. says, "The incident is under investigation and we are waiting for toxicology reports to come back."

Ultimate Douchebag Will Wrestle Again
Hold on to your man-panties, because no one's favorite pathetic, homophobic, trash-talking wrestler-turned-conservative unmotivational speaker Ultimate Warrior is returning to the ring.
Brian James Hellwig, aka Ultimate Warrior, will tease his hair and come out of retirement on June 25 to faux-fight in something called the NWE. Instead of mouthing off on his blog against celebs like Heath Ledger and Hulk Hogan, the 48-year-old homosapien will fight someone called Orlando Jordan in Barcelona.
Apparently, writhing around with sweaty, half-naked members of the same sex is a hard job to give up!

Golfing Whale Fights Hippo in Court
The Britney Spears of the golf world -- the trainwreckeriffic John Daly -- seriously thinks that his name is still worth something.
He's filed suit against Hippo Golf, whom he alleges used his logo and name to hawk a line of golf clubs after their deal with Daly had ended. Given how far he's crashed on tour -- and crazazy antics like walking off the course in the middle of a round and tussling with his wife in public -- it's a wonder anyone wants to be associated with J.D.
Hippo's lawyers had no comment; we're told that Daly's also embroiled in legal action with other golf companies. No wonder he can't hit the ball straight.
