One of Tiger Woods' many mistresses, Joslyn James (A.K.A. Veronica Siwik-Daniels), has launched a new website (www.sextingjoslynjames.com) where she has posted over 100 graphic text messages the golf superstar allegedly sent to her her.

"OK, I would like to have a threesome with you and another girl you trust," says one messag.

"I want to treat you rough, throw you around, spank and slap you," reads another.

In a public apology last month, Woods admitted that he suffers from sexual addiction and got therapy at a rehab clinic.

President Barack Obama has even chimed in on the situation, saying, "Tiger has acknowledged that he betrayed his family and that's a personal issue they've got to work out. I hope they work it out and that he returns to golf."

Tiger Woods, who will soon return to pro golf, spoke at Obama's inaugural concert.

Ron Washington, manager of the Texas Rangers, tested positive for cocaine in 2009 and got nine months of counseling for violating Major League Baseball's substance abuse policy, according to a report released this afternoon.

Even though non-players with clubhouse access are randomly tested annually, Washington, 57, was subjected to increased testing following his positive result last July, and he's since passed every subsequent test.

According to the online report, Washington also called the commish and notified the Rangers' front office prior to the results coming in, warning the league that he might not have passed initial test.

"It was the right thing to do," Washington said, claiming that this was a one-time transgression. "I couldn't deal with the result to come back positive and be a shock to those who've shown faith in me."

"I did make a mistake and I regret that I did it," he added. "I am really embarrassed and I am really sorry."

Tiger Woods will be returning to golf at Augusta for The Masters, he announced on Tuesday.

Here is the full statement:

"The Masters is where I won my first major and I view this tournament with great respect. After a long and necessary time away from the game, I feel like I'm ready to start my season at Augusta.

"The major championships have always been a special focus in my career and, as a professional, I think Augusta is where I need to be, even though it's been a while since I last played.

"I have undergone almost two months of inpatient therapy and I am continuing my treatment. Although I'm returning to competition, I still have a lot of work to do in my personal life.

"When I finally got into a position to think about competitive golf again, it became apparent to me that the Masters would be the earliest I could play. I called both Joe Lewis and Arnold Palmer and expressed my regrets for not attending the Tavistock Cup and the Arnold Palmer Invitational. I again want to thank them both for their support and their understanding. Those are fantastic tournaments and I look forward to competing in them again.

"I would also like to thank the Augusta National members and staff for their support. I have deep appreciation for everything that they do to create a wonderful event for the benefit of the game."

A couple of old-school tennis rivals played a charity match, Andre Agassi teamed with Rafael Nadal, while Pete Sampras teamed with Roger Federer.

The trash-talking took an ugly detour real fast.

Sampras decided to imitate Agassi's famous walk to lighten the mood a bit. Andre didn't seem to care for it one bit.

From that point, Agassi got personal and talked about Sampras being a lousy tipper, a fact he discussed in his recent book (below).  Pete took offense and tried to nail Andre with a serve.

Pete could easily have brought up how Andre threw away 4 years of his life on drugs, but he opted to take the high road.

As usual, Sampras found a way to defeat Agassi.

Check out both of their books, and the video below:

The Wolverines gave him too much room.  They all but begged Evan Turner to win the game for Ohio State in the final seconds, allowing one of the best overall players in the league get his hands on the basketball with just 2.1 seconds left in the game.

Turner was more than happy to oblige, nailing a miraculous three-pointer to win the quaterfinal game for Ohio State.

"The whole game, they were swarming me. They gave me one good look," Turner said after the game.  One good look is all he really needed, making the basket from about 37 feet out.

"I always had the confidence it was going to go in," added Turner. "If I'm going to try to make a play, they don't go in without confidence."

Merlin Olsen, who was inducted into both the Pro Football Hall of Fame and the College Football Hall of Fame, died on Thursday morning at 69 years of age.

Olsen had been diagnosed with mesothelioma last year and had been undergoing chemotherapy.

Olsen was inducted in the NFL's Hall of Fame in Canton, OH after a career spanning 15 years as a defensive tackle for the Los Angeles Rams.  He was part of the infamous "Fearsome Foursome" and also got 14 consecutive Pro Bowl nods in his first 14 seasons. He had been inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame in 1982.

In 1994, Olsen was elected to the NFL's 75th Anniversary All-Time Team, along with defensive tackles "Mean" Joe Greene and Bob Lilly.

Olsen also belongs to the College Football Hall of Fame's Class of 1980.  In December, Utah State named its field at Romney Stadium in Olsen's honor.

After football, Olsen worked on TV as a color commentator for NBC. He also had roles on Little House on the Prairie and Father Murphy.

Howard Stern has outdone himself this time.

Jamie Jungers has won the "Tiger Woods Mistress Beauty Pageant" held on the Howard Stern Show this morning. Listeners were also treated to some juicy gossip courtesy of Jungers, Jaimee Grubbs and Loredana Jolie.

Jungers claimed that Woods was well endowed. "Tiger's wood was nine inches," she reportedly said during the contest. Former Playboy model Loredana Jolie, meanwhile, said that Tiger was "bigger and better" than Michael Jordan.

Both Grubbs and Jungers reiterated that Woods did not use condoms when involved in sexual intercourse with them, which confirms previous reports.

Susan Minor, Jamie’s maternal aunt, says that her niece told her about the affair and claimed to have taken naked pictures of Tiger.  How long before those surface, do you think?

As a result of her victory, Jungers walked away with a ring designed by Steven Singer Jewelers which features a 3-carat round, black diamond in the center with another half carat in diamonds around it.

She was also given a cool $100,000 in cash prizes.

The woman accusing Ben Roethlisberger of sexual assault has been interview by police.  She was described as "hysterical" when doing so, according to officials in Georgia.

Roethlisberger's  accuser showed up at the police station with three other women, according to a source.

She was very emotional and looked like she had been crying. The victim's identity is currently being withheld, as is standard with alleged sex offenses.

Ben's agent, Ryan Tollner, stated on Friday, "we are skeptical of motive."

The police source, however, says that the accuser "did not look like" a someone who was making up her story.

The Pittsburgh Steelers QB has not been charged with a crime, nor was he charged in the incident that came to light in 2009 with Andrea McNulty.

Ben Roethlisberger is at it again, it seems.

The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback has been accused of sexual assault by a woman in Georgia, according to media reports.  The alleged incident took place early this morning at Capital City, a club in Milledgeville.

Police say that the alleged victim has already been interviewed, treated at an area medical facility, and released.

A few witnesses are also being interviewed at this hour.  Roethlisberger has already been interviewed, however no formal charges have been filed at this point.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigations is also investigating this matter.

This isn't the first time Roethlisberger has been accused of sexual assault.  A Reno woman, Andrea McNulty, claims the veteran QB sexually assaulted her back in 2008.

A representative from the Pittsburgh Steelers organization has been quoted as saying:

"We are gathering information on this incident - until then we have no further comment."

Brett Favre appeared on The Tonight Show last night, sitting down to talk with host Jay Leno.

Favre, 40, hesitated a bit when Leno presented him with a gold retirement watch, although he was happy snatch up the timepiece.

Favre then said, "Well Jay, it's only been a month, and I know now that I'm just not going to say anything anytime soon, just going to kind of sit back, relax, enjoy the off-season."

Jay brought up a sore subject for the Minnesota Vikings QB.  When asked if the NFC Championship game loss to the New Orleans Saints still upsets him, Favre said: "I think it will for a long time. Obviously had we gone to the Super Bowl that would have been icing on the cake, but it was still way better than even I could have dreamed of. I've told people I really believe my biggest accomplishment this year was winning over the majority of the Vikings fans. For so many years I was hated."

The Supreme Court has decided to let a lawsuit proceed against Hustler magazine over nude photographs it published of Nancy Benoit that were published after she was killed by her husband, pro wrestling superstar Chris Benoit.

The court denied Hustler's appeal on Monday.  Benoit murdered his wife and their son, Daniel, before killing himself back in 2007.

Hustler later published 20-year-old nude pics of Nancy after the deaths hit the mainstream media.

Her family filed a lawsuit against the Larry Flynt Publishing Group, the company that publishes Hustler, in which they claimed that Nancy, a model and former wrestler, had asked the photographer to destroy the photographs right after they had been taken.

A federal judge had previously ruled in favor of Hustler back in October 2008, dismissing the lawsuit and concluding that the magazine could print the pics as her death was a "legitimate matter of public interest and concern."

In 2009, however, the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the judge's ruling, saying the mag had no right to publish the pics.

The magazine claims it had a First Amendment right to publish the pictures.  You can check some of them out here and here.

The case is LFP Publishing v. Toffoloni, 09-625. Stay tuned.

Wow, do this year's Olympians know how to have a good time or what?  Not only are they letting girls go down on their medals and swigging beer on ice, they're also running short on condoms, apparently.

At this moment, an emergency shipment of condoms is quickly making its way across Canada to Vancouver.

Health officials in the city have already distributed 100,000 free condoms to approximately 7,000 athletes and officials at the winter games (that's about 14 condoms per person, if you're counting).

As of Wednesday, however, those supplies started running dangerously low.  The Canadian Foundation for AIDS Research has swooped into action.

"When we heard about the condom shortage in Vancouver, we felt it important to respond immediately," said Kerry Whiteside, CANFAR's Executive Director. The organization put together three large boxes of about 8,500 condoms which should arrive on at the end of the week.

Free condoms first started to be handed out at the Olympics in Barcelona at the 1992 Games. This would seem to be the first time a shortage has struck the Games.

The Canadian women may have taken things a little too far.

The International Olympic Committee will launch an investigation the antics of several players on the Canadian women's hockey team players who took part in a gold medal celebration on Thursday that included chugging beer and smoking cigars right out on the Vancouver ice.

Among the players consuming alcohol was 18-year-old Marie-Philip Poulin.  The legal drinking age in British Columbia is 19.

Players stayed on the ice for over an hour following the awards ceremony to celebrate.  The arena was empty at that point, except for media and arena staff.

Gilbert Felli, the IOC's executive director of the Olympic Games, was quoted as saying that drinking in public was "not what we want to see" from Olympic athletes. Officials will investigate the matter and discuss it with the International Hockey Federation and Canadian Olympic Committee.

Steve Keough, a spokesman for the Canadian Olympic Committee, told the Associated Press, "We condone celebrations.  We don’t condone actions of irresponsibility. I think Canadians understand it’s quite an emotional moment for our team. It was not our intention to go against any IOC protocols."

The Tiger Woods camp is going to love this one.

The golf star's image appears on a new PETA billboard bearing the tagline "Too Much Sex Can Be a Bad Thing". Underneath, it reads "...for little tigers too. Help keep your cats (and dogs) out of trouble: Always spay or neuter!"

The organization has not gotten Tiger's permission to use his likeness in the campaign.

"It's a fun, tongue-in-cheek approach. We hope these billboard companies will understand," says Virginia Fort, who worked on the project.

The current plan is to start putting up the new billboards in about two weeks.

Fort added that the new advertisement is solely intended to help animals...not to offend the golfer and his family, although it's hard to imagine how they won't be offended.

"The world has been transfixed on Tiger's life after Thanksgiving. We're putting the focus where it needs to be.  We're sure Tiger will appreciate our attempt - from a story that's distracted the world and followed Tiger - to turn it into something positive for little tigers."

They had better hope so.

Liddell currently has an existing sponsorship deal with the athletic company.

The short workout clip shows Liddell and Northcott doing working out in nothing but a pair of Reebok shoes. The video makes them seem unaware that they are being videotaped.

Interesting marketing tactic.  We're betting this one goes viral pretty quickly.

He didn't crash coming out of the gate, he didn't even skate in the wrong lane, but it was still an Olympic-sized blunder for German speedskater Patrick Beckert.

Beckert could have competed in Wednesday's 1,000-meter competition as the fourth alternate when two-time gold medalist Enrico Fabris of Italy withdrew from the race just an hour before it was scheduled to begin.

Officials tried to reach the first three alternates to no avail, then tried contacting Beckert, but his cell phone was turned off.

Beckert finally returned the calls about 17 minutes before the race but it was too late for him to make it to the Richmond Olympic Oval.

Helge Jasch, manager of the German speedskating team, has taken responsibility for the goof saying that he didn't tell Beckert to report to the oval. He thought that the odds of the fourth alternate making it into the race were astronomical.

Not on this day.  Always leave your cell phone on, it could cost you a gold medal of you don't.
