As you can see by his tweets, Bieber is overjoyed… RELATED POSTS: Hotsauce Balls On Justin Bieber For Ludacris Tournament Boyz II Men Celebrate Longevity On New Album “Twenty”
After just the second meeting of the offseason, the NBA players and owners had a meeting that seemed to go nowhere. Yikes. The most recent meeting that took place on Tuesday has both sides basically agreeing that they probably won’t have a deal in place in time to have the season start by its regularly scheduled October beginning. Here’s what the Commish David Stern had to say: ““Well, we did not have a great day, I think it’s fair to say that,” Commissioner David Stern said. “On the other hand, we did say that it is our collective task to decide what we want on the one hand on each side, and two, what each side needs if we choose to work ourselves in such a way as to have the season start on time. That’s still our goal.”” Yeah, but that’s probably not happening. Derek Fisher had a reality check for that a$$: “I think coming out of today, obviously because of the calendar, we can’t come out of here feeling as though training camps and the season is going to start on time at this point.” The main issue comes from how much the players are willing to split with owners and it’s all coming down to $7.8 billion on the table! Every meeting has been largely unproductive, so we’re probably looking at a shortened season. Sigh.
Sounds like the “Maverick” was gettin’ it IN! And possibly still is… Sarah Palin has dabbled in cocaine use and carried on an extramarital affair with her husband Todd’s business partner, Brad Hanson, according to an explosive tell-all book. The new issue of the National Enquirer, which goes on sale Thursday, has an exclusive sneak peek at Joe McGinniss’ highly anticipated book The Rogue: Searching for the Real Sarah Palin, and RadarOnline.com has learned some of the shocking contents. The book, which is due to be published on September 20, alleges that just one year before she eloped with Todd, Sarah enjoyed a steamy interracial one-night stand with 6-foot-8 basketball great, Glen Rice. Sarah is said to have met the sportsman in 1987 when he was playing a college basketball tournament in Alaska and she was working as a sports reporter for local station KTUU. Glen Rice, with his ‘Real Housewives of Miami’ wife Cristy. Clearly ol’ boy digs those lighter-skinned backs. Would it be so far-fetched if he chopped down Palin’s trees while roaming the Alaskan countryside? The book also charges that before she became Alaska Governor, both Sarah and Todd dabbled in cocaine use and claims she was once seen snorting the drug off an overturned 55-gallon oil drum while snowmobiling with friends. It also details an extramarital affair between Sarah and Hanson, claiming Todd subsequently dissolved their snowmobile dealership after he learned about the tryst between his wife and business partner, which is alleged to have lasted six months. This second affair would explain a lot. We’ve always felt there was something a lil “off” about Todd… This book looks like it may sink Palin’s chances of winning the Presidency one day, but we suppose other Presidents and presdential candidates haven’t been the squeakiest of clean people either. via RadarOnline

Manny Ramirez, the 2004 World Series MVP who retired this year when faced with his second suspension from Major League Baseball due to the use of performance enhancing drugs, has been arrested in Florida. The incident took place around 7 p.m. EST, as witnesses tell TMZ and other sources that Ramirez was led from his home in Weston in handcuffs and then booked in the Broward Sheriff’s Office main jail in Fort Lauderdale, Ramirez’ wife, Juliana, left the house shortly after her husband. Onlookers confirm an altercation of some kind took place inside. The slugger played for the Cleveland Indians, Chicago White Sox, Los Angeles Dodgers, Boston Red Sox and Tampa Bay Rays over his career. This gives new, sad meaning to the term “Manny being Manny.”
Serena Williams’ outburst in the women’s championship match was the talk of the U.S. Open Sunday, and the tennis star could dace further consequences yet. Williams was docked a point early in the second set against Samantha Stosur – who won 6-2, 6-3 – after shouting “Come on!!!” as encouragement to herself. That’s typically standard, but because she yelled before the point was over, she was penalized … and then LOST IT at the umpire for evoking the “hindrance rule.” Watch Williams’ U.S. Open outburst here: Serena Williams U.S. Open Outburst “If you ever see me walking down the hall, look the other way because you’re out of control,” Serena said. “You’re a hater and you’re unattractive inside.” It is worth noting that Williams, who infamously lost a match by virtue of a pair of code violations in her 2009 semifinal meltdown , did not use any profanity. Nevertheless, she ranted to the point where a referee will pass along the findings of the investigation to the Tournament Grand Slam Committee. That board will decide what discipline, if any, is appropriate. Fines are all but a given; Worst case is she could be banned from future tournaments. Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal play for the men’s title today at 4 p.m. UPDATE : Officials just fined Serena $2,000 for the outburst, deeming that “Williams’ conduct … does not rise to the level of a major offense.” Evidently not. Her runner-up prize? $1.4 million. So that’s that.
All those critics seem awfully quiet this morning… Cam Newton’s pro career began on the same field where his electric college career ended. And just like the BCS title game in January, Newton was flinging the ball all over University of Phoenix Stadium and leading his offense up and down the field. While confetti fell on Newton after Auburn beat Oregon for the national championship, there would be no storybook ending for the Panthers’ quarterback Sunday. He’ll have to settle for tying the best passing performance by a rookie in NFL history. Brushing off criticism that he could not succeed as a pro passer, Newton shredded the Arizona secondary for 422 yards and accounted for all three of the Panthers’ touchdowns. But the Cardinals took advantage of secondary and special teams breakdowns by the Panthers to claim a 28-21 victory and spoil the debut of the No. 1 draft pick. Newton broke the record held by Peyton Manning (302) for passing yards by a rookie in Week 1 and equaled Matthew Stafford’s record total for rookies. Stafford, the No. 1 overall pick of Detroit, threw for 422 yards against Cleveland in Week 10 in 2009. Play on playa, we see you! Source
