How do you like your Jason Momoa ... blonde or brunette??

Now you have choices, thanks to NFL stud defensive end Bryan Braman -- who says he gets mistaken for the jacked up actor EVERY DAY!

Braman -- who's about to be a free agent -- says he loves the comparison and says he's even down to be Momoa's official stuntman ... 'cause he's down to do all the dangerous stuff.

But who's got the better abs? Braman states his case.

He also gives us a man bun tutorial on the street -- and one thing's clear ... dude's got BEAUTIFUL HAIR!!!

When it comes to the greatest football coach of all time, IT AIN'T BILL BELICHICK ... not even close ... so says NFL Hall of Famer Dave Robinson, who says he'll never outshine Vince Lombardi.

Full disclosure ... Robinson is a Packers legend who won two Super Bowls under Coach Lombardi -- so, he may be a bit biased. But he's extremely passionate.

If you couldn't imagine Margot Robbie as Tonya Harding ... you will now, 'cause she NAILED the most awesome Tonya line ever during filming.

This clip from the behind the scenes of the Tonya movie seems to be recreating one of her many infamous moments ... when Harding got pissed at U.S. Figure Skating officials ragging on her outfit.

If Margot isn't the perfect physical fit for the role ... she's definitely got the mouth down. It's unclear if Tonya really did punctuate the argument this way -- but if she didn't, she'll wish she had when she sees Margot do it.

Jay Z is about to get some daddy advice from a member of the reproductive Hall of Fame ... Antonio Cromartie, who says when it comes to kids, THE MORE THE MERRIER!

Cromartie legendarily has 13 kids ... including twins with his wife, Terricka ... so when we got them out in Houston for the Super Bowl, we had to ask if they had any "twin advice" for Jay & Bey.

The Cromarties break down the ins and outs of twin management ... but when we ask if it's time for the 47-year-old hip-hop legend to get snipped ... the reaction is priceless.

Shaquille O'Neal says Charles Barkley is lucky LeBron James didn't fly out to the "Inside the NBA" studio to BEAT his ass after his recent criticism ... 'cause that's what he woulda done.

Shaq confronted Sir Charles Thursday night about his critical LeBron comments -- saying, "What you said was that man doesn't wanna compete, that's what ticked him off."

He added, "I woulda came up here and punched you in your face. That's what I woulda done."

Barkley's response -- "Well, first of all, you're not a good fighter."

Brutal honesty from Eric Dickerson to Ezekiel Elliott Thursday night -- with the Hall of Famer telling the Cowboys star he's GLAD he didn't break one of his rushing records and he hopes he NEVER does!

The two superstars came face-to-face at the Madden Party in Houston -- when we brought up the fact that Zeke came just 178 yards shy of breaking E.D.'s single season rookie rushing record.

Dickerson LOVED IT ... and said bluntly, "No one wants their records broken!"

Zeke told the legend he's coming for his 2,105 all-time single season record ... Dickerson's rooting against that too!!

2 Chainz is so confident in his ATL Falcons ... he's bettin' a FAT STACK on 'em!!

The Georgia rapper was out in Houston last night where he told us why he's throwing BIG MONEY on the Dirty Birds ... he even predicted the final score.

He's not the only rapper throwing around a fortune in Houston -- Migos told TMZ Sports they've got $300K IN CASH!!!

Two more reasons to watch the Super Bowl halftime show -- because, once again, you can BET on whether Lady Gaga will show cleavage ... and the smart money's on "Yes."

The new Mr. Clean can't rest now that he's scored the iconic role -- instead he's got serious work to do in the gym.

We got Mike Jackson in Houston where his new employer's hooking him up with 2 Super Bowl tix. As they say, nothing's free though because Mike strongly hints he's been told to pump things up. He looks pretty big in this video, but insists he can't match the OG Mr. Clean just yet.

As for the best music to clean to -- Mike's fave is a classic, but he's saving his dance moves for Super Bowl Sunday.

For the record ... we think he's off on the size thing.

Newly uncovered text messages allegedly sent by ex-Baylor coach Art Briles show how poorly he handled situations where his football players were involved with drugs, guns and even an incident where a player exposed himself to a woman at a spa.

Steve Sarkisian says he DEEPLY appreciates his offensive coordinator job at Alabama ... but admits he does want to be a head coach again one day -- when he's ready.

TMZ Sports spoke with Sark at LAX -- and he shot down critics who blamed Bama's loss in the National Championship game on the switch-up at O.C. days before ... when he replaced Lane Kiffin.

"Everybody has an opinion," Sark said ... while admitting, "We probably didn't play our best."

The game capped off Sark's first season back in college football after he got fired from USC and addressed his battle with alcoholism.

But with all that behind him, does he ever see himself being the face of a college football program ever again?

"Sure, I'd love to ... a lot of work to be done before that."

The smokin' hot daughter of 3-time NFL champ Mark Schlereth ain't a hater ... 'cause she says Travis Kelce -- who didn't pick her on his reality show -- is still a hotter piece of tight end than Rob Gronkowski.

We got Avery Schlereth out in Houston ... and asked her if there were any hard feelings between her and Kelce, being that she competed on his reality dating show, "Catching Kelce" ... and lost.

Not only is she not mad ... she's still a fan ... telling our guy in a head-to-head choice between Gronk & Kelce, she'd take Kelce both on the field ... and after the game.

BTW ... Avery is ridiculously hot, so much so that we're wondering if the Chiefs should have Kelce's eyes checked. Peep the gallery below, you'll agree.

Tom Brady is an apostrophe abuser.

Here's Tom at Super Bowl practice on Thursday rocking one of those QB wristbands -- complete with what we believe to be some throwing motion notes.

We don't really know what "Light Light G.P." means ... but we DO know Tom didn't have to put apostrophes in "toes" and "knees."

Then again, who are we to talk ...

The man who shot and killed NFL player Joe McKnight has been indicted for 2nd degree murder ... officials in Louisiana announced.

Ronald Gasser, 55, was arrested on December 5 and booked for manslaughter ... following a road rage incident that led to the death of the former USC star.

Now, after further investigation by the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office in collaboration with the D.A., a grand jury has hit Gasser with the more serious charge of 2nd degree murder.

As a result of the indictment, the judge raised Gasser's bond from $500K to $750k.

Great news for Derek Fisher ... one of the most famous celeb jewelers in the country wants to REPLACE his 5 stolen NBA championship rings -- and promises they'll be EVEN BETTER than the originals.

We spoke with Johnny Dang -- who's made a TON of super expensive bling for stars like Von Miller, Johnny Manziel, Sean Kingston, Kylie Jenner and more -- and he wants to hook Fish up.

TMZ Sports broke the story ... the ex-Lakers star's L.A. home was burglarized this week and we're told the bad guys made off with $300k in jewelry ... including the rings.

Enter Dang ... who says he'll HOOK FISH UP ... even cut him a sweet deal.

Terry Bradshaw ... STONE COLD PIMP!!

The "NFL on FOX" star got on the mic to ask Lady Gaga a question at the Super Bowl halftime news conference ... and totally hit on her grandmother!
