Former MLB pitcher Jose Lima was found dead at home this morning of an apparent heart attack. He was 37.

His wife, Dorca Astacio, told ESPNdeportes.com, “Jose was complaining while sleeping and I just thought he was having a nightmare … I called the paramedics, but they couldn’t help him.”

A rep for the L.A. County Coroner tells TMZ the death is now under investigation, but that there are no signs of foul play.

Lima played 13 seasons for five different teams, the highlight being his 21 win season for the Houston Astros back in 1999.

After Floyd Mayweather’s defeat of “Suger” Shane Mosley last month, the big question has been: will a fight against Manny Pacquiao be next?

Well, it looks like the mega-fight is back on.

Shortly after Pac-Man won a seat on Congress in his native country the Philippines recently, negotiations for a fight between himself and Money Mayweather began … for the second time. However, Mayweather was still said to be holding firm on his stance for Olympic-style drug testing.

But now, a compromise may have been met.

According to the BBC, Pacquaio is agreeing to a 14-day cut-off — leading up to the fight — for blood testing, an offer Mayweather said he offered originally, but was denied.

“I have agreed to it, but they should not draw much blood. They should only take what is necessary for the drug test,” the Filipino boxer is quoted as saying.

A fight between Pacquiao and Mayweather — who many regard as the two best pound-for-pound boxers in the sport today — would likely be the biggest in boxing history.

“He [Mayweather] will no longer have a reason [not to fight],” said Pacquiao. “Let’s see if that is really the reason.”

Both fighters tried to make the fight happen earlier this year, but negotiations ceased after both sides failed to agree on terms regarding drug testing.

They both went on to take separate fights, and both were victorious. Pacquiao defeated Joshua Clottey, and Mayweather beat Shane Mosley in a decision. Following Mayweather’s win, talk began about a possible match against Pac-Man, and now, things seem to be nearly finalized.

At press time, nothing had been announced officially, but previous statements from Pac-Man’s camp said the potential fight would take place in November.

Amar’e Stoudemire had more on his mind than basketball during last night’s playoff game against the Los Angeles Lakers — he watched his mother get arrested this weekend.

TMZ has learned the 6’10″ NBA star was named in a police report involving an incident with his mother, Carrie Mae Stoudemire, that took place Saturday afternoon.

According to the report, police in Scottsdale, Arizona pulled Carrie over for allegedly driving erratically — and eventually placed her in handcuffs for refusing to take a field sobriety test. But soon after the stop, another car — a Bentley — arrived to the scene.

Two incredibly tall men emerged from the car — and a responding officer claims he recognized one of them as Amar’e. According to the report, Carrie began kicking the patrol car and yelling for Amar’e to “get a lawyer.”

The officer claims he then asked Amar’e and his friend to leave the scene because they were causing Carrie to “act out.” According to the report, Amar’e immediately complied with the officer’s request.

Carrie — who has a long history of alcohol abuse — was eventually booked for speeding, failure to drive in a single lane and operating a vehicle without a court-ordered breathalyzer ignition interlock device.

LeBron James’ attorney has fired off a cease and desist email — finally denying the fast-spreading, and disturbing rumor of a sex scandal involving LeBron’s mom and his teammate Delonte West.

READ FULL STORY
TMZ obtained a copy of the email sent to terezowens.com — the sports blog that first reported on Friday that LeBron’s mother Gloria was allegedly sleeping with Delonte. In the email, Frederick Nance — attorney for LeBron and Gloria — says the report is “categorically false and per se defamatory.” Nance adds, “No thinking person could possibly believe such rubbish.”

The report — which also spread as a viral email — was supposed to explain the Cleveland Cavaliers’ playoff loss to the Boston Celtics with this theory: LeBron finds out about Delonte and his mom before game 4 … Cavs go on to lose games 4, 5, and 6 (and possibly LeBron).

The guys at terezowens tell us, “We think it’s a little fishy that they waited almost 4 days to fire this off.” They say they stand by their source, and they’re consulting with their lawyers. The story is still up on their site … for now.

UPDATE: We also spoke to Keith Estabrook — a spokesman for the James family — who told us, “I will not dignify this with a comment.”

How one hot chick leads to them all!!

Hey guys, have you had a girlfriend and let your roster go? Well, if you have, I’m sorry that you did. …that’s your number one mistake..it will be a while until you build it back up.

The DK Report Tip: “never get rid of your insurance “ ( see article on insurnance)

Even the best of the best at building rosters will take a few weeks to get it going again. Just as the TheDKreport has given great advice in the past, here is the best way to get back in the game and have the Ultimate Dream Team of chicks by your side when you want them to be.

Remember guys, women are SOOOOO insecure. The hotter they are the more insecure they are. Use this and use it to your advantage….you need to start selecting your team. Think of your self as a General Manager for the Lakers, Dodgers, or any sports team that is successful. What do they do? They select based on talent and what they need at the time and are always looking for their Franchise player….i.e. Kobe Brynt.

Find the HOTTEST girl around. Make sure she’s out of your league so she knows that your not hitting on her. Then, become friends with her and get on her good side. Make sure your on every social network site and let others see you talking to her. Once this happens, your golden! This is now your Queen B!

The fact is Hot girls hang out with hot girls “and” the more your seen with and talking to hot girls….they all will follow!

Have you found your franchise player? Try it and let TheDKreport know how it worked out.
