Shaquille O'Neal wants to get BACK IN THE RAP GAME ... for real ... and he's so serious, he just made a freestyle rap audition video for Pharrell.

Despite the fact it's been 16 years since The Diesel released his last album, Shaq is hittin' up the "Happy" singer to give him a chance to rap on the NBA 2K15 video game soundtrack (which P is producing).

Hence the audition video ... in which Shaq rhymes the work "platinum" with ... well, we really can't understand what he's saying ... it's sorta gibberishy.

While the freestyle isn't quite on "Tell Me How My Ass Tastes" levels of epicness, it's not far off. Check it out.

FYI -- Nothing will ever be on "Tell Me How My Ass Taste" levels ... Nothing.

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Rolando McClain was convicted of resisting arrest and disorderly conduct in Alabama this morning over an incident where he cussed out cops back in 2013 ... and was sentenced to 18 days in jail.

McClain -- a 1st round pick in 2010 NFL Draft -- was arrested at a park in Decatur last year when cops arrived to the scene to break up a large crowd and McClain began to cuss and scream at one of the officers.

McClain appeared in court this morning -- where prosecutors used dash cam video to prove McClain was out of control.

Jim Brown's 1964 Cleveland Browns Championship ring has been PULLED OFF THE AUCTION BLOCK amid allegations the ring was stolen from the NFL legend back in the '60s ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Earlier this week, Brown sued Lelands Collectibles Inc. in the hopes of getting the ring back -- though he does NOT accuse the auction house of having anything to do with the original alleged heist.

Lelands is ADAMANT the ring was obtained legally after Brown gifted the item to a family member several decades ago.

The auction house was expecting to rake in more than $250k from the ring -- but now, after Brown filed the lawsuit, they have pressed pause on the sale.

Sources tell us ... the auction house was not ordered to stop the auction but felt the move was in their best interest.

Dwyane Wade channeled his inner-Gronk ... and hit up the Beyonce & Jay Z concert in Chicago last night with wife-to-be Gabrielle Union.

B&J were playing at Soldier Field -- home of Da Bears-- where Michelle, Sasha and Malia Obama were reportedly in attendance.

No word if Wade and the Obamas hung out at the show -- but we know they're friends ... Dwyane even shot a commercial with Michelle earlier this year.

As we previously reported, Dwyane and Gabby are set to get married next month -- but have issued a social media BAN at the reception.

Interestingly enough, D-Wade tweeted and Instagrammed at the show last night -- bragging about how they got backstage after the concert.

Lil Wayne's sports management company has the potential to be HUGE -- and going after Cristiano Ronaldo to be client #1 could make for a "great partnership" ... so says rap superstar Common.

We broke the story ... Wayne is all set to handle Ronaldo's U.S.-based sports management needs (branding, marketing, etc.) ... a move Common thinks is smart because of Weezy's track record.

"Obviously, [Young Money Cash Money Billionaires] is very successful ... so, you know, it might be a great partnership."

Carlos Boozer just broke Michael Corleone's heart ... telling TMZ Sports when push comes to shove, "Scarface" is a better movie than "Godfather: Part II."

The newest L.A. Lakers player was leaving Toast (no better way to learn the city than by hittin' all the good restaurants) ... when we asked him about his favorite Al Pacino movie of all time.

Boozer says it's a hard choice -- dude's got so many classics -- but at the end of the day, he's riding with the coke cartel flick over the mafia movie.

Here it is ... the raw footage of Johnny Manziel hitting a Nissan Altima IN STRIDE during a car commercial back in June ... and nailing the driver in the face.

TMZ Sports broke the story ... Manziel was instructed to fire a football into the passenger window of a moving Nissan for a car dealership commercial in Cleveland.

Johnny nailed the stunt on the FIRST TAKE ... and plunked the driver right in the kisser.

You can hear the crowd going wild -- but we're told Johnny was calm, cool and collected -- and couldn't have been nicer on set.

Keyshia Cole's estranged husband shocked her by filing divorce papers before she could, or so it seemed ... but Daniel "Boobie" Gibson says it was actually an impostor -- with a thing for El Pollo Loco -- who did the deed.

TMZ broke the story ... the singer was on the verge of filing for divorce last month, but still hadn't pulled the trigger when Gibson supposedly filed last week in L.A. County Superior Court.

We got a copy of the docs which looked pretty standard ... citing irreconcilable differences. However, it seemed odd an ex-NBA player like Gibson would list himself as his attorney.

We called the phone # listed for him in the papers -- and the person who answered claimed he was Gibson, but sounded suspect. So, we checked the address listed ... and it turned out to be an El Pollo Loco restaurant. Crazy, right?

The real Boobie assured us he never once considered filing, telling us ... "She would have to do it. I am a Christian. I believe in 'til death do us part.'"

Gibson says he's going to press charges against the impostor.

For her part, Keyshia tells us nothing's changed -- she still plans to go forward with the divorce. Sorry Boobie ... and fake Boobie.

Cristiano Ronaldo is about to become a YOUNG MONEY CASH MONEY BILLIONAIRE ... because sources tell TMZ Sports Lil Wayne is starting his own sports management company and Ronaldo will be client #1.

Our sources tell us ... Weezy has been wanting to get into the sports management game for a while and has had his sights set on the Team Portugal stud ... not just because he's a huge sports star, but because they're friends.

We're told Weezy's company will be working with PolarisSports -- which is affiliated with the CAA agency and GestiFute -- through which Ronaldo's agent Jorge Mendes operates.

Our sources tell us Wayne's company will handle Ronaldo's sports management affairs in the United States -- everything from branding to marketing and endorsement deals. Even modeling.

Seems Ronaldo is pumped about the situation -- he just posted a photo with the Prime Minister of Japan along with other Japanese politicians ... and they were all throwing up the YMCMB sign.

Congrats!!

TMZ Sports has obtained the arrest video of NFL star Justin Blackmon -- in which he warned the officer, "This is gonna be a big deal."

Former NFL tight end Fred Davis was arrested this morning for assault stemming from an incident where he allegedly insulted his ex-GF's flat ass ... and then attacked her with dirt and flowers.

As we previously reported, Fred's ex told cops the 28-year-old approached her at a restaurant earlier this month and told her male companion, "Why you with her, she doesn't have an ass."

The ex-GF claims Davis then threw dirt and flowers on her from a hanging planter.

Now, we've learned ... Davis was arrested early Thursday morning in D.C. and charged with simple assault and attempted threats to do bodily harm.

Davis plead NOT GUILTY to both charges ... and was eventually released on his own recognizance.

Mario Gotze ain't the only Team Germany star with a smokin' hot lady ... Andre Schurrle's GF ain't half bad either.

The soccer superstar -- who made the assist to Gotze in the WC Final -- was hangin' out on a yacht in Ibiza with longtime girlfriend Montana Yorke ... the lady who was by his side throughout the World Cup.

It's unclear exactly what Yorke does for a living -- but she's super pretty, she takes a lot of selfies ... and her boyfriend is super rich and Euro-famous.

The L.A. Kings are responsible for destroying the sex lives of two grandparents ... this according to a new lawsuit obtained by TMZ Sports.

The people behind the allegations are Trina and Dino Adam -- who claim they were at the L.A. Kings Icetown sports center in Riverside, CA back in January for their granddaughter's birthday party.

In the docs, the couple claims they were celebrating in a special room away from the ice rink in the sports center when a hockey puck zipped into the room and struck Trina in the head.

According to the suit, Trina was knocked out cold ... and her husband caught her before she hit the ground ... but she suffered serious injuries from the incident -- including nausea, headaches, mood swings, memory loss and more.

In fact, Trina says less than a week after the incident she lost her balance as a result of the lingering effects of the puck injury and tumbled down a flight of stairs ... fracturing her wrist.

But that's not all -- Dino says he's suffered as well ... claiming in the suit that he's lost the "enjoyment of sexual relations" with his wife.

The couple is suing the Kings organization for medical expenses and other damages.

Here ye, here ye ... The Queen hath smiled ... in a photobomb!!!

Queen Elizabeth II was at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games in Scotland (think Olympics but smaller) ... when she snuck up on a selfie being taken by 2 female hockey players from Australia.

The selfiers -- Jayde Taylor and Brooke Peris -- immediately knew they snapped gold and posted the pic to Instagram with the caption, "Aaaahhh the Queen photo-bombed our selfie @chookieperis3 #royalty #queenie #onceinalifetime @auscomgames"

Afterward, the girls told the media the Queen was not in on the plot -- explaining they had tried to catch her in the background of a selfie ... and when Her Majesty realized what was going on, she hammed it up and flashed some pearly whites for the pic.
