Spike Lee & Mark Teixeira’s Bat Makes Headlines

Spike at a game-acting like Spike! Gotta love it!

Spike Lee nabbed the honors for most-posted video in the sports blogosphere on Sunday after grabbing Mark Teixeira‘s wayward bat in the Yankees’ 10-8 loss to the Angels.

But while there’s no denying the alluring nature of the clip — hey, it’s not everyday you can awkwardly shoehorn all of the titles of Lee’s film into one blog post — I can’t help but thinking it could have been a lot better had he been wearing this Yankees hat at the time.

Really?!?!!!! Justin Beiber Wanted By The Police

Beiber don’t play any games! He’s not a little boy anymore!!!

According to TMZ reports:

Justin Bieber is a suspect in a criminal battery … law enforcement sources tell TMZ.

Justin was in Calabasas, where he lives, just after noon Sunday at a mall called The Commons. A paparazzo attempted to take Justin’s picture and, according to law enforcement, some sort of physical altercation erupted between Justin and the camera guy.

The photog called 911, and when cops arrived Justin and GF Selena Gomez had already split.

The photog complained of pain to his upper torso, an ambulance was summoned and he was taken to a local hospital where he was examined and released a short time later.

The photog filed a police report naming Justin as the culprit. Cops are investigating the incident as a misdemeanor battery.

Law enforcement tells us detectives want to speak with Justin, Selena and any other witnesses.

We placed a call to Justin’s rep … so far, no comment.

We’re told several witnesses at the scene say after the altercation, a lawyer walked up to the photog and said he could get a lot of money out of the incident and advised the dude to call for an ambulance and file a police report.

Witnesses also say the photog had been blocking Justin’s car as the singer was trying to leave. Justin got out of the car and asked the guy to move away but he wouldn’t, and a scuffle ensued.

Team Breezy went insane … hammering Chrissy with horrible messages that read:

– “all you do is talk s**t, you need to be raped and murdered.”
– “killyoself b***h ur nothing but tall thats why you model. your nothing.”
– “ditzy dumb a** tramp your mother should’ve aborted you.”
– “i hope you are the next ‘celebrity’ to die”
– “you have the brain capacity of a turtle, just die.”

Needless to say, Chrissy was disturbed and upset by the reaction to her pretty benign commentary.

Considering that the award show was Sunday, #TeamBreezy really kept the fire burning over the past couple days. So much that Grand Wizard Breezy had to come from behind the curtain himself to quell the fury.

Connecticut Father Arrested In Queens With A Car Full Of Kush, 4 Pounds Of Blow And His 13-Year-Old Son!!!

You would think people would stop riding DIRTY!!! Obviously not!!!

Two police officers collared a Connecticut man who was driving in Queens Sunday with his 13-year-old son — and about $70,000 worth of yayo inside his car, cops said.

Police officers Vincent Siraco and Michael Sardone were on foot patrol on Jamaica Avenue near 165th Street in Jamaica at about 1:55 p.m. when they noticed a 2007 Honda Accord with heavily tinted windows, cops said.

The two cops smelled tweeds after they motioned for the driver — Silvestre Mahon — to pull over, cops said.

Inside the car, the cops found a gravity knife, two small baggies believed to hold “trees” and “rocks”, and Mahon’s 13-year-old son.

“I’m pretty sure he was putting in his application for father of the year,” joked a law enforcement source.

In the trunk, cops found a backpack with two kilos, or about four and a half pounds, of blow, cops said.

One of the bundles of cocaine was wrapped in duct tape while the other has a picture of a leaping humpback whale on the packaging tape, according to a picture released by cops.

Mahon, 34, hails from Norwich and has two sealed arrests plus one for possession of a loaded gun, cops said.

He was charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance, weapons possession, acting in a manner injurious to a child — and with a window tint violation.

The 13-year-old was released into his mother’s custody.

What was he thinking!!! SMH, doesn’t this remind you of those “This is your brain on drugs” commercials where the little boy goes “I learned it from watching you Dad!” ?

Video: LeBron James’ man-purse…..Is it FaB or FaG?!?


At halftime of Sunday’s Boston Celtics/New York Knicks game, ABC relayed a shot of Miami Heat stars Dwyane Wade and LeBron James entering the Staples Center before Sunday afternoon’s contest against the Los Angeles Lakers. And, yes, LeBron was carrying what appeared to be a leather toiletry bag of sorts. Or, if you will, a “man-purse.” And? Take a look, via SI.com‘s Jimmy Traina:

I don’t care what you think, that thing is dope. I’d carry two, if I could pull it off. With the leather and the handle, it looks like it’s going to be full of straight razors, scotch whisky, and creamed spinach in anticipation for that night’s massive slab of prime rib. If that’s a man-purse, it’s something that Errol Flynn would have boarded a swanky dirigible with.

Adele & Bruno Mars Graced The GRAMMYS Stage

“Bruno Mars was up for 5 awards tonight.  And he hit the stage decked out in a gold blazer to perform his hit single “Runaway.”  And Ms. Adele took over the whole GRAMMY Awards by sweeping all 6 of her categories.  And performing “Rolling In The Deep.”  Vids inside…

Talk about a comeback!  23-year-old Adele sang her most popular track to date, “Rolling In The Deep,” (which has also been remixed heavily by the hip hop/urban set) at Sunday night’s GRAMMY Awards.  And it was the bluesy Brit’s first big live performance since she underwent vocal cord surgery months ago.  And clearly….chick isn’t struggling in the least bit.

Standing O.  Loves her.

26-year-old Bruno Mars was another one of our faves of the night.  He likes to keep his performance style old school with a James Brown flare.  And he rocks it.” Theybf

Rihanna & Coldplay At 2012 GRAMMYS

According to Theybf:

“Rihanna changed out of her uber sexy Armani/Rihanna designed number into another sexy all black outfit for her performance at Sunday night’s GRAMMYs.

 

Check out Rih hitting the stage and dueting with Coldplay inside…

That voice was not it tonight.  But not only did she take home 2 GRAMMYS for Best Rap Song & Best Rap/Sung Callabo for “All Of The Lights,” she looked hot and had fun hopping around the stage.  She opened with an energetic performance of “We Found Love.”

And then she was joined by Chris Martin and his band Coldplay for their new collabo “Princess of China.”"
