Eva Longoria and Matt Barnes? That’s the rumor of the day. Having divorced San Antonio Spurs star Tony Parker in 2010, Eva was rumored to be dating Matt after the New York Post reported a dalliance on Sunday. The Texas-born actress “may have her eye on a new baller,” they said, noting that the two were “very flirty” while dining with friends in NYC Thursday. “There was definitely a spark between Eva and Matt They weren’t seated next to each other, but you could tell there was something between them …” “There was a little hand-holding and a lot of eye contact.” Matt Barnes and Gloria Govan broke up last week, and the NBA is locked out, freeing him up to potentially court Longoria. But she says it’s not true. At all. The 36-year-old Desperate Housewives star slammed the story on her Who Say account, “First Jessica Simpson, now this. Once again, press gets it wrong.” “Let me be very clear, Matt Barnes and I are not dating!” Jessica Simpson is pregnant though. We got that right. “We are doing a charity event together for Padres and Athletes vs. Cancer,” Eva explained further. “Why is the truth never the headline? Why did I bother to comment when they put your statement at end of articles? #stillannoying.” The eternal question of the celebrity gossip age. [Photo: WENN.com]
The Lingerie Football League can take its endorsement deal and shove it. Paris Jackson isn’t messing around with any half-assed football. She’s a machine. Michael Jackson’s 13-year-old daughter unleashed the fury on opposing QBs and receivers yesterday during a flag football game. Look at that intensity! The very first female to join her private school’s deal, Paris also played a little offensive line, and mixed it up with the guys with some aggressive blocks. This quarterback is about to get straight up embarrassed by Paris . When Katherine Jackson took over guardianship of Michael’s three children, she enrolled them in the prestigious Buckley School, and they’re thriving there. For those keeping score, Jackson’s school emerged victorious … and after the game, she tweeted about it … saying, “We Won 32-6!!!!!!!! Yeahhh Boiiiiii!” Word. That’s a bigger pounding than the D.A. is putting on Dr. Conrad Murray . Boiii. [Photo: Pacific Coast News]
Damn it Romo . It’s not bad enough that Jessica still cheers for your Dallas Cowboys more than her husband-to-be and the 49ers or that you and your Jessica replacement made it down the aisle before Jessica and her Romo replacement did? Tony Romo, the Dallas Cowboys quarterback, announced that he and his wife, Candice Crawford, are having a baby! The handsome NFL star revealed the good news on Tuesday at the Cedar Hill High School in Texas, telling the students: “I actually have one on the way. My wife is pregnant.” He and Candice tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in May and have been pretty low key since their nuptials. Romo famously dated Jessica Simpson, who seems to be showing off an ever growing baby bump of her own, although she has yet to announce the good news. You couldn’t let her have this one either huh? Congratulations… we guess. Source
Milton Bradley, a former Major League Baseball outfielder as well known for his temper as his production with men in base, has fired back at his wife. Two weeks ago, Monique Bradley filed for a restraining order from her husband after a confrontation that led to Milton’s arrest, during which she claims he pulled out a gun and threatened her life. But the ex-Mariner/Dodger/Padre has now filed his own documents with L.A. Country Superior Court, TMZ reports , and they label these allegations as “absolutely false.” Bradley says his wife is a repeated liar and he never threatened her, not during this incident and not last month, when she claims he swung a baseball bat in her direction. Milton and Monique have both filed for divorce, with the former asking a judge to award him joint custody of their young sons. Another one of Bradley’s former teams, meanwhile, the Texas Rangers, are a game away from their first World Series title.

This guy better be praying to the high Heavens today. Detroit Lions running back Jerome Harrison was supposed to be traded to the Philadelphia Eagles this week right before the trade deadline, but things fell apart for the trade, but his life may have been saved. During the pre-trade physical, Harrison found out that he has a brain tumor! Thankfully, it’s not life-threatening, but without the trade and the physical Harrison would never have known about his brain tumor. Of course, because he failed the physical, the Eagles backed away from the trade and Harrison is out for the season, but that’s a minor consequence compared to the way his life was just saved. Crazy stuff.
