What did the 5 fingers say to the butt? SLAAAAAP!!!

That's how it went down for Usain Bolt at FDR nightclub in Miami this weekend ... when a hot chick in a thong started grinding up on the fastest man on the planet during Lil Wayne's birthday bash.

Check out the footage ... Bolt and his crew were showering some of the club's lingerie dancers with cash -- seriously, money was spillin' out the panties -- when Bolt decided to throw in a little smack for good measure.

Gilbert Arenas caught Laura Govan red-handed leaking their email exchange to a blogger -- and now he's calling her out in front of a judge ... according to court docs.

Here's a horrible way to motivate your fanbase -- University of Central Florida's football team is winless, and if the streak continues its fans will enjoy FREE BEER!!

A sports bar near the UCF campus called The Basement Orlando is offering free brews during UCF's game this weekend against Tulane. The team is currently 0-4, and the bar's marketing honcho Jake Whitcare says they thought this would boost fan morale.

Whitcare tells us, they'll be serving up domestic kegs totally gratis until the UCF Knights win a game. He says they're in this for the long haul -- as in 0-12, if it comes to that.

Here's the thing ... we have no doubt the giveaway will boost morale TO DRINK! We're just not sure how it encourages fans to cheer for a win.

Being unemployed has its benefits ... if you're Michael Sam ... 'cause the outta-work football player has some new friends in high places ... hanging with the cast of the hit Fox show "Empire."

NY Giants co-owner Steve Tisch says he's still cool with Will Smith -- and is actually rooting for his new movie "Concussion" to do well ... despite the fact it's about a doctor who takes on the NFL.

The movie has been getting a TON of buzz -- with the trailer suggesting the NFL hatched a diabolical plot to intimidate a doctor into hiding evidence about the real dangers of football related brain trauma.

Tisch says he hasn't seen the movie yet, but says he's not even mad about it at all -- "I hope the movie not only entertains, but educates and empowers."

Tisch also says the NFL isn't trying to hide anything -- in fact, he's adamant the league is very proactive when it comes to head injuries.

"There's a very high level of consciousness about concussions in the NFL," says Tisch ... who claims the league is doing everything in its power to educate the players.

Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson saved his dog once from death, but his second attempt failed.

The Rock's bulldog pup Brutus was put down Monday night after eating a poisonous mushroom in the family's backyard. The mushroom was so toxic, the dog's liver shut down within hours.

The Rock says the dog was on life-support, but after consulting with vets he decided to let Brutus go.

You'll recall earlier this month, Brutus fell in the pool and The Rock jumped in to save him.

Rock said, "We'll always love you Brutus ... and you'll always be my lil' main man and rough housing Brute."

RIP Brutus

Seems like it was just a matter of time, but the Cleveland Browns have officially cut ties with offensive line coach Andy Moeller ... after an altercation with his fiancee earlier this month.

As we previously reported, Moeller's fiancee called police and claimed he strangled and beat her at his Maryland home on September 5th.

Cops investigated and determined an "incident of a volatile nature" took place ... but DID NOT charge him with a crime because they couldn't prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Moeller actually attacked his fiancee.

NBA superstar Derrick Rose says he and his friends are NO RAPISTS -- claiming the ex-girlfriend accusing them of drugging and gang raping her is LYING because she gave them consent to have sex on the night in question ... this according to court docs obtained by TMZ Sports.

San Francisco 49ers star linebacker Ahmad Brooks has pled not guilty to sexual battery ... stemming from a 2014 incident where he allegedly groped an unconscious woman.

The 31-year-old was NOT present in the Santa Clara courtroom when his lawyer entered his plea ... roughly one month after he was charged with the crime.

As we previously reported, the alleged victim claims the incident went down on December 14, 2014 ... after she met 49ers player Ray McDonald at a bar and went back to his home.

While at McDonald's place, the woman claims she fell and hit her head near the swimming pool ... and Brooks groped her in a sexual manner while she was unconscious.

She also claims McDonald raped her later that night ... and alleges surveillance footage from the home will help prove she's telling the truth.

If convicted, Brooks faces up to 6 months behind bars.

Jon Jones has just pled guilty to one count of leaving the scene of an accident ... stemming from an incident in April ... and was sentenced to 18 months probation.

Ex-UFC champ Jon Jones has some serious support inside a New Mexico courtroom this morning -- UFC honcho Dana White ... who's waiting for Jones to be arraigned stemming from an alleged hit-and-run crash in April.

As we previously reported, Jones allegedly smashed into another car in Albuquerque -- injuring a pregnant woman -- and then ran from the scene.

Jones was later arrested ... and was stripped of his heavyweight title and suspended from the UFC indefinitely.

Great news for Ohio State running back Ezekiel Elliott -- the adorable dog that was STOLEN from his home has been found ... and cops nabbed the people suspected of the dognapping.

Elliott and his father Stacy begged the public for help when their dog Chase -- an Alaskan Malamute-German Shepherd mix -- was stolen from the family home in Columbus, Ohio on Sunday.

The scumbags who took Chase reportedly cut through a fenced off area to snatch the pooch.

But things turned around Tuesday morning -- when someone found Chase chained to a nearby fence and returned him to the Elliotts!

Rob Gronkowski has a new teammate -- Redfoo -- who tells TMZ Sports he signed, sealed and delivered to join Gronk's party cruise ... and says the whole thing is gonna be insane!!!

As we previously reported, the New England Patriots tight end is taking a 3-day party cruise out in the Bahamas in February ... culminating in a rager on a private island!

Last night, Redfoo told us he's fully committed to be part of the festivities -- and even issues a challenge to Gronk when it comes to partying on the boat.

This thing is gonna be insane ...

The man accused of shooting up Lil Wayne's tour bus now says the notion he'd try to off Weezy is as absurd as Drew Brees trying to kill rival QB Matt Ryan.

Lawyers for Jimmy Winfrey -- who's currently behind bars, awaiting trial for the shooting in April -- claim their client did not have a motive to hurt Wayne. The lawyers acknowledge Winfrey was an associate of Young Thug, but they say Y.T. idolizes Wayne.

The lawyers acknowledge there's rivalry in the rap game, but that doesn't mean rappers automatically want to kill each other. Winfrey's lawyers say, "Clearly, the New Orleans Saints and Atlanta Falcons are rivals because they are fighting every year to win the same division: the NFC South. Yet, this does not provide a motive for Drew Brees to kill or maim Matt Ryan."

It's not just the Browns fans who want Johnny Manziel to start at QB -- several Cleveland players are also calling for #2 ... telling TMZ Sports it's "f**ked up" he's still riding the bench.

We spoke with 3 starting players on the Browns offense -- all of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity -- who tell us the team wants Manziel under center on Sunday ... not Josh McCown.

One player who admits he's extremely frustrated with the QB situation says, "I love both Johnny and Josh but its f**ked up when you have Johnny come in and play well and has proven to the team that he is the right person for the job."

"It’s frustrating to him and us when you sit a player down when he is playing well. Coach has got to understand you are messing up the chemistry and timing with players and its f**ked up."

Another player tells us, "The team plays better when [Manziel] is in the game. I play better when he plays."

"You can’t get better unless you play. We won when he played and coach has got to trust him like he trusts Josh."

A 3rd player added, "When Johnny in the game it puts the defense on edge. He doesn’t just sit in the pocket, he makes plays. Coach has got to make the change now."

Action sports star Erik Roner -- one of the stars of MTV's "Nitro Circus" -- died in a freak skydiving accident in Lake Tahoe, California ... this according to the resort where it happened.
