Mr. Olympia Is Overcompensating for Something...
At 5'11," 320 lbs, eight-time Mr. Olympia Ronnie Coleman is unbelievably, ridiculously, freakishly massive-- but not everything about him is as big as you'd think...
Sorry Ronnie, 24" guns can't make up for a tiny larynx.

Olympian Carl Lewis: 'Memba Him?!

Different Spanish Team -- Same Racism
Not to be outdone by the Spanish national Olympic basketball team, the Spanish women's tennis team pulled the same offensive pose that's apparently sweeping their nation. Ay dios mio!
This racy pic was taken during preparation for their Federation Cup match against China back in April.
The photo still remains on the team's website with the attached caption: "Estamos preparados para China", which translates to, "We are prepared for China." Yeah, preparing for the backlash!

Eric Gagne -- Still Got Juice In LA
So what if the records he set with the Dodgers were tarnished by dirty steroid allegations, fireballer Eric Gagne is still the king of saves -- at least he was to two chicks who wanted to get into a Hollywood nightclub.
Cameras caught the goateed cheater hangin' with his boy and Brewers teammate C.C. Sabathia outside of Foxtail, when suddenly Gagne decided it was time to add a little estrogen to the mix. That's when the star of such literary classics as "The Mitchell Report" waved two hotties over and star-powered his way into the club.*
*Despite the fact that our camera guy says Eric got into the club with the girls, we never actually see them walk through the door on tape -- therefore our commissioner (Harvey) has decided to add an asterisk to this post.
Nicole to Ashlee: Let's Shop Til You Pop
Either diaper talk brought the odd coupling of Nicole Richie and Ashlee Simpson together at Barneys in Beverly Hills yesterday -- or they just happened to run into each other while buying mascara for their men.

Romo Calls BS -- Underwood's a Phoney
Tony Romo calls plays. He doesn't call Carrie Underwood.
Sources close to the Cowboys QB tell TMZ Tony "is not calling Carrie" -- despite a recent interview she gave implying that she's ducking Romo's calls.
In fact, Tony's been spending all sorts of "quality time" with on-again-off-again-back-on-again girlfriend Jessica Simpson -- we even got the proof when they left dinner together in Malibu over the weekend.
Unfortunately for Cowboys fans, it doesn't look like your team jinx is going anywhere.
Patriots Save NY Giants Coach from Blackmail
One minute NY Giants football coach Tom Coughlin was winning Super Bowls, the next... he's working with the FBI to catch a guy blackmailing him over made-up sex romps!
According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, some dude named Herbert Simpson allegedly threatened to make his life "a living hell by doing something to his family" if he wasn't paid $30,000 to keep a sex scandal out of the headlines -- problem is, the sex scandal never, ever happened.
Simpson wrote letters to Coughlin, pretending to be women who hooked up with the coach while he was on the road in Philidelphia. But Coughlin, who obviously knew the sexcapade accusations were BS, alerted the feds -- who busted Simpson.
If convicted, Simpson faces up to two years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

Olympic Losers Pursue Topless Dancing
The boys of the New Zealand soccer team don't get down on themselves when they lose, they just get down!
After losing to Belgium in the first round of the Olympics 0-1, the Oly-Whites (as they're called back home) broke out the Haka -- a traditional Maori war dance teams from NZ usually perform before a match to scare the holy hell out of the other team.
No word on why they decided to bust a move after the loss, but as long as that guy keeps his shirt off -- who really cares?!

Phelps: Before the Medals, Muscles and DUI
He may be the greatest Olympian of all time, but Michael Phelps was once just another pale, skinny 8-year-old in a Speedo.
Here's little Mikey back in 1993 at the North Baltimore Aquatic Club.
All it takes to be a stud is 11 gold medals.

D-Wade's Biz Boys Want Baller Money
Olympian b-baller Dwyane Wade rode pine when he should've been out pimping his restaurant chain, and now his biz partners want serious jack -- we're talkin' $25 mil -- from Wade because of it.
A couple of guys who say they sunk millions into developing the D. Wade's Place restaurant concept have sued the hoopster for ditching what they claim were his marketing obligations. They also say Wade blew more than $350K on etching his uni number into the rims of his Rolls, and $30K for his 26th b-day bash.
Mark Rodberg and Richard von Houtman tell the Palm Beach Post they were supposed to have 13 restaurants by now -- but they only opened two, both of which are now closed.

Me Spanish, Me Play Joke...
...me slant eyes like Chinese folk.
That's basically the apology members of the Spanish Olympic Basketball team have issued to the Chinese people after mocking their eyes in a photograph that ran in a Spanish newspaper.
In a statement, Spain's Pau Gasol -- who's also a Laker in the NBA -- said, "It was something like supposed to be funny or something but never offensive in any way. I'm sorry if anybody took it the wrong way and thought it was offensive."
But wait -- it gets better. Another Spanish player, Jose Calderon -- who also plays for the Raptors -- wrote on his blog, "We felt it was something appropriate, and that it would be interpreted as an affectionate gesture." He added, "Without a doubt, some ... press didn't see it that way." DUUUUHHHHH!!?!?!!?
Confucius say: It's not wise to make fun of those who are different from yourselves.

Punchy Olympic Gymnast Masters Pummel Horse
Well, if the whole gymnastics thing doesn't work out, silver medal scapegoat Alicia Sacramone could be one hell of a boxer!
Unbelievable footage of the Team USA star has surfaced on YouTube, showing Alicia throwing a punishing left hook into the face of a beefy, shirtless dude -- who appeared to have asked for it.
The video was reportedly shot during her days at Brown University -- where they apparently go through cases of Natty Light like it's their job!
