For some reason, ex-Baylor football player Tre'Von Armstead was all smiles after his arrest Monday morning ... despite allegedly roughing up a woman and kicking out a police car window.

TMZ Sports broke the story ... the 22-year-old former Baylor tight end was arrested in front of The Cromwell Hotel around 4 AM after cops say they watched him push a female on the street.

During the arrest, 6'6", 280 pound Armstead allegedly kicked out the back window of a police squad car.

Le'Veon Bell says Lavar Ball is OUT OF HIS DAMN MIND for saying he could've beaten Michael Jordan 1-on-1 back in the day ... and brought out stats to make his point.

Ball -- who played college hoops at Washington State and Cal State L.A. -- has been making headlines (again) after saying, "Back in my heyday, I would kill Michael Jordan 1-on-1."

Le'Veon ain't havin' it.

"lol man, Lavar Ball really will say anything for attention...so youu can beat Michael Jordan 1 on 1 in both y'all primes man?! 😩😂 I'm done."

"Lavar Ball, you have to understand you averaged a whole 2 points per game at Washington State...youu know damn well Jordan would TORCH you!"

"Lavar Ball, in '88 when youu averaged that whole 2 points a game at Washington St, Michael Jordan averaged 35 a game with the Chicago Bulls."

Think Bell's reality check will stop Lavar from speaking his mind? Yeah, neither do we.

The Floyd Mayweather, Conor McGregor superfight is "nowhere near being done" and reports of a June 10 target date are false ... so says Dana White.

White -- who did make a formal offer to Mayweather -- says the two sides are just as a far apart as they've been for months.

Floyd recently announced he would come out of retirement to fight Conor -- and reports have surfaced that the T-Mobile Arena in Vegas has put June 10 on reserve in case the fight is made.

Indianapolis Colts lineman David Parry vowed to "come after" the cops who arrested him for allegedly drunkenly stealing a golf cart ... and the threats were all captured on video.

TMZ Sports obtained footage of Parry back at the police station in Scottsdale, AZ -- which begins with the 300-pounder lying on the floor of his jail cell.

He spars with the woman trying to get his information. He threatens other cops in the station. He's a complete and total jerk.

As we previously reported, Parry was a belligerent mess when cops initially confronted him -- slurring to cops, "Who did I have auto theft with?"

He also calls a female officer a "bitch" ... spews homphobic slurs ... and calls one officer a "fat f**k."

Despite the videos, Parry pled not guilty to felony robbery, felony unlawful use of transportation and misdemeanor threats.

He's due back in court next month.

Willie Nelson can take BOTH Diaz brothers at the same time ... at least when it comes to smoking weed.

The country music legend (and pot icon) was proudly displaying his new boxes of the new Nick and Nate Diaz line of marijuana cigarettes.

The company behind the pot products say "Nate's Energy" weed is a pre-workout blend and "Nick's Recovery" is to help athletes post-training.

Or, if you're Willie Nelson ... pre-show, post-show?

Dennis Rodman put in WORK on the streets of Vegas Monday night ... teaming up with a bucket drummer outside Planet Hollywood ... and the people loved it!

We're told it all went down around 10 PM ... when Rodman was walking around the strip and saw the dude murdering the bucket drums.

Rodman grabbed the mic and busted out James Brown's "Get On Up" ... and it wasn't bad.

Danny Amendola's having a phenomenal offseason ... chillin' in the Bahamas with his beauty queen girlfriend and a bunch of other hot people ... including Jesse Metcalfe.

The New England Patriots WR has been dating Olivia Culpo, the 2012 Miss USA champ for about a year ... and what better way to celebrate than a tropical vacation?

Other attractive people on the trip include Jesse's actress fiancee, Cara Santana, models Devon Windsor and Nicole Harrison, DJ Rascal and more.

Chillin' with models ... the Patriot way.

You'd think rap superstar Boosie Badazz -- a Louisiana legend -- would want the New Orleans Saints to draft his college football superstar cousin, right?? Wrong.

"I don't give a f**k about the Saints."

Turns out, Boosie's cuz is Cameron Sutton -- a projected 2nd round pick who killed it as a cornerback at Tennessee. Dude's good.

So, when we saw Boosie at LAX we asked if the family's pulling for a certain team to draft the kid.

"It doesn't matter. We don't give a f**k about the team. It's about the MONEY, man."

Boosie even dishes out some financial advice ... including the one baller exception Cam's allowed to make after he gets that first check.

The head of a national women's rights group is calling for the NFL to suspend Ezekiel Elliott -- claiming his shirt-pulling stunt at a St. Patty's Day parade in Dallas was "a clear act of sexual assault."

We spoke with Shaunna Thomas -- co-founder of UltraViolet, an organization dedicated to fighting sexism and expanding women's rights who says she's seen the video and is convinced Zeke committed a crime.

"The reality is that what happened in that video was sexual assault, period."

Thomas also calls on Roger Goodell to take immediate disciplinary action to prove the league is serious about protecting women.

Joey Logano should've been EXPECTING a fight with Kyle Busch this weekend ... especially after the way he was driving ... so says NASCAR analyst Jeff Hammond.

Hammond was covering the Kobalt 400 for FS1 and says he loved the passion Busch showed when he confronted Logano after some "aggressive driving" on the track.

Bottom line ... the whole "leave it on the track" mentality doesn't apply when you spin out a race car around 180 MPH.

"In Joey's situation, you should expect that kind of a retaliation. You gotta be looking for it. Your head's gotta be on a swivel."

In fact, Hammond says MORE drivers should show the kind of passion Busch did.

Hey, more fights? We're down!

An ex-Baylor football player was arrested in Vegas this morning after cops say he roughed up a woman and then went CRAZY on police ... kicking out the back window of a squad car.

The man facing the allegations is 22-year-old Tre'Von Armstead -- who was infamously linked to the Baylor University football cover up scandal.

FYI, Armstead was named in a rape investigation in 2013 ... but Baylor reportedly failed to take action for roughly 2 years. Armstead was eventually dismissed from the team in 2015 for a "violation of team rules."

Armstead has denied any wrongdoing in the 2013 incident.

But Monday morning in Vegas, Armstead found himself in trouble again ... when police officers say they watched the 6'6", 280 pound tight end push a woman in front of The Cromwell Hotel.

Law enforcement sources tell us officers confronted Armstead and tried to arrest him but he resisted.

When they finally put him into the police car, we're told he kicked out the back window.

Ezekiel Elliott pulled a woman's shirt down -- exposing her bare breast -- during a St. Patrick's Day party in Dallas ... but a rep for Zeke says it was all in good fun.

Zeke was drinking a beer next to a group of people while on the roof of a Dallas bar to watch the St. Patrick's Day Parade on Greenville Ave.

The woman is playing to paradegoers and motions at her breasts -- then points to Zeke. Next thing you know, he reaches over and pulls her top down, exposing her bare breast. She scrambles to cover up.

We spoke with Elliott's rep who told us the woman wasn't upset ... and actually hung out with Zeke and a group of friends after the parade ended.

Nonetheless ...

12:00 PM -- We just obtained more video of Zeke from the parade. We're told this was taken moments after the breast exposure.

Elliott reaches in a second time and she slaps him away before flashing her cleavage to the crowd below.

Two former high-ranking Penn State officials each pled guilty to child endangerment for their roles in the Jerry Sandusky scandal ... and now face serious prison time.

Ex-Athletic Director Tim Curley and ex-Vice President Gary Schultz were initially charged with felonies -- but struck a deal in which they agreed to plead guilty to a reduced misdemeanor charge.

The charge still carries a maximum of 5 years in prison -- a sentencing date has not been set.

As you may recall, former Penn State graduate assistant football coach Mike McQueary alerted PSU officials when he heard Sandusky sexually assaulting a young boy in the team showers.

Both Curley and Schultz -- along with ex-PSU President Graham Spanier -- were made aware of the allegation but did not go to police. Instead, they simply told Sandusky he couldn't bring boys to campus anymore.

Schultz and Curley were arrested in 2011. Spanier was arrested the following year.

Johnny Manziel is LOVIN' the engaged life -- making out with his new fiancee, Bre Tiesi, on the streets of Paris ... followed by getting the couples VIP treatment at the Drake concert.

Manziel popped the question (with a massive ring) on Friday and then played tourist in the City of Light -- hitting up various sites including the Notre Dame Cathedral.

The Drake concert was Sunday night and he even hooked up with Von Miller to keep the party rollin'.

Manziel will eventually return to the U.S. where he says he's serious about his pro football comeback.

Stay tuned ...

How does Shaq get amped up for "Inside the NBA"? ... He freestyle raps about his co-workers!

The Diesel was spittin' bars over Mobb Deep's "Shook Ones Part II" beat as he walked through the TNT offices before a show.

Shaq rapped about everyone he encountered ... including Kenny Smith and a guy he calls "The Light-Skinned Jermaine."

J Lo made it official -- she and A-Rod are banging, and she let the cat out of the bag by posting a pic with him ... possibly in bed.

She pulled the ole post and delete Sunday ... briefly putting the pic on her Instagram story. A-Rod's face is covered but that's him playfully palming her head. They were spotted together in the Bahamas this weekend on a romantic getaway.

Drake who?
