The Georgia football player who screamed at Baker Mayfield to "Humble yourself" is now trying to make a business out of the viral moment ... filing papers to trademark the phrase.

TMZ Sports has learned Davin Bellamy submitted an application to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office looking to lock down the trademark for "Humble Yourself" for clothing like shirts, hats and uniforms.

Bellamy filed the application on January 4 ... 3 days after Georgia beat Oklahoma in the Rose Bowl.

After the game, Bellamy yelled the phrase in Baker's direction ... it was all captured on video.

The trademark could take several months -- but the ball's rolling.

If you didn't already love N.E.R.D. and Rihanna's song, "Lemon" ... Serena Williams will change your mind in the next minute and 30 seconds.

The tennis superstar turned a Palm Beach International airport runway into her own private dance party for a photo shoot with Vogue ... and we're so, so happy she did.

Not only does the new mommy show she can still twerk like no other, she even serves up some lemons at (probably) over 100 miles per hour.

Just goes to show Serena is BACK ... but it's not like she ever left.

Big win for Oscar De La Hoya ... the boxing legend's DUI case has officially been dismissed, TMZ Sports has learned.

We broke the story ... Oscar was pulled over for speeding in Pasadena around 2 AM on Jan 25, 2017 -- and when officers approached his vehicle, they believed he was under the influence.

Cops say Oscar also bombed a field sobriety test. He was charged with 2 counts of misdemeanor DUI -- but pled not guilty to both.

Oscar's attorney later filed a motion to dismiss the case and on Jan. 9, it was granted by a judge -- which means he's out of the woods.

O.J. Simpson seems pretty convinced he's NOT Khloe Kardashian's real father -- and he's banking on you buying those two magic words ... "Trust me."

Juice finally addressed the conspiracy theory that's been floating around for decades ... that he secretly knocked up Kris behind Robert Kardashian's back 34 years ago -- and the family has been covering it up ever since.

So, when he was out in Vegas over the weekend -- a photog asked if congratulations were in order regarding Khloe's pregnancy.

Simpson clearly understood the subtext -- and replied, "Well, for Bob, God bless his soul, yeah. I don't know for me. I don't think for me I have nothing to do with it."

He added, "I would be proud ... but trust me, I had nothing to do with it."

Meanwhile, watch O.J.'s daughter, Arnelle, in the background -- she's CONVINCED her dad's no Kardashian creator.

Ever wonder what Tom Brady's Massachusetts mansion looks like on the inside??

Of course you have.

The usually super-private superstar opened the doors to his $4.5 million pad for his new documentary, "Tom vs. Time," dropping soon on Facebook Watch ... revealing TB12's life OFF the gridiron.

The teaser is filled with Brady-isms like referring to himself as a warrior and cute moments with his kids ... but what's really eye-opening is getting a glimpse of the Brady fam's incredible home.

Ronda Rousey had a VERY interesting dinner date Tuesday night -- Triple H ... and it seems like the two sides are one step closer to hammering out a deal to get Ronda in the WWE.

Triple H snuck out of Republique restaurant in L.A. first. Ronda followed with her agent in tow and was in a pretty great mood.

She wouldn't spill the beans on whether a deal was done -- but interesting that Triple H would come to L.A. at the same time the "WWE SmackDown Live" was going down in Alabama.

One WWE source tells us it's unusual for Triple H to miss a TV event -- he's usually on hand for everything ... so, you know if he's gonna fly out west, it's not just for a good meal!

Jon Gruden's first order of business in Oakland should be to cut Marshawn Lynch and upgrade the running back position ... so says Cris Carter.

"Marshawn is not the Marshawn Lynch he was 3 or 4 years ago," Cris said on FS1's "First Things First."

Beast Mode is a huge fan favorite in Oakland -- in fact, Marshawn came out of retirement last year specifically to play for his hometown team.

L.A. Rams head coach Sean McVay says he's flattered by comparisons to Jon Gruden -- saying Chucky is a "mentor of mine" ... but he ain't lookin' forward to playing against him next season!

McVay was at Poppy in West Hollywood on Tuesday -- hours after Gruden was officially announced as the new head coach of the Oakland Raiders. So, we had to ask about Jared Goff previously referring to McVay as "Mini-Gruden."

"That's a compliment, man," McVay said ... "I respect him. He's a mentor of mine, so I'll take that as a compliment."

Fun Fact: McVay started his NFL coaching career as a staffer under Gruden on the Tampa Bay Bucs back in 2008.

All we know about a Rams vs. Raiders matchup is it's on the 2018 schedule ... but no date has been announced.

NBA player Jamil Wilson -- who's expected to sign a contract with the Lakers on Wednesday -- has been sued by a woman who claims he gave her herpes ... and didn't warn her he had the disease.

It's all in a lawsuit filed in L.A. County Superior Court ... the woman claims she began dating and having unprotected sex with Wilson in Nov. 2016.

But things went south and in June 2017 the woman claims she was diagnosed with herpes simplex type 2 -- and she's pointing the finger at Wilson.

In her suit, the woman claims Wilson KNEW he had herpes when they began having sex and failed to disclose that information to her. And now she's pissed.

The woman is suing for sexual battery and fraud -- claiming her consent was based on the assumption he was disease-free. She's also seeking damages for emotional distress.

DETOX, BABY!!!!!!!

Dr. Dre has suggested that his long-awaited, dead, then not dead, then dead again album "Detox" might actually be released after all ... and it all went down at a Golden State Warriors practice.

Dre and Jimmy Iovine were watching Steph Curry and Kevin Durant at a Warriors workout on Tuesday when ESPN's Chris Haynes brilliantly asked him if Detox was permanently shelved.

Dre's response -- "I'm working on a couple songs right now. We'll see."

BOOM!!!

Dre has been working on Detox since 2002 -- but seemingly closed the door on the idea in the HBO series, "The Defiant Ones" ... saying he's moved on.

"I never had any connection with [Detox], it didn't work."

He added, "I'm never gonna do that again."

Never say never ...

A company that sells stock in professional athletes claims Chicago Bears WR Kendall Wright is a bad investment ... because he's allegedly screwing the company out of a ton of cash.

Wright is being sued by Fantex, Inc. -- which has made headlines for making deals with professional athletes so they could sell "shares" to fans who believe the athletes are destined for big paydays.

For example, Fantex would pay athletes a signing bonus and in exchange they could get a piece of the athlete's future income on and off the field. Stock holders would participate in the profits.

Fantex reportedly signed a deal with Wright back in 2015 -- offering him $3.125 mil for 10% of his future earnings. Since then, Wright reportedly made $7.3 mil with the Titans in 2016 and and $4 mil with the Bears in 2017.

He'll probably sign another big contract in 2018.

But the problem, according to Fantex, is Wright stopped paying the company their cut in March 2017 and now owes them $288k in back payments plus interest ... totaling $312,715.25.

Fantex says it's tried to contact Wright for the money, but he's basically blown them off.

Rod Carew says he feels like a "superman" with his new heart and kidney ... telling TMZ Sports he's only getting stronger since suffering a major health scare 2 years ago.

ICYMI -- Carew experienced a massive heart attack back in 2015. Just months later, he received a heart transplant from Baltimore Ravens tight end Konrad Reuland ... who died from a brain aneurysm when he was 29.

Carew -- who was a part of the '18 Rose Bowl Parade -- says he's forever grateful he received Reuland's organs and has kept in touch with his family ever since.

The 72-year-old -- who once made 18 straight All-Star games -- jokes that he's feeling better than ever ... and would LOVE to make a comeback after being away from the majors for 32 years!!

BONUS: We asked Carew who he thinks is the next Rod Carew ... and you gotta check out his answer.

What did Tua Tagovailoa's championship game heroics mean to the people of Hawaii?

UFC champ Max Holloway -- one of Hawaii's biggest sports stars -- told us it was "HUGE" ... and says the 'Bama QB should expect the VIP treatment when he comes home.

"Hawaii has a lot of pride," Max told TMZ Sports. "A parade is probably gonna happen down here and it’s gonna be insane."

But Max says the best is yet to come for Tua -- and even compared him to an NFL legend!

Speaking of 'Bama heroes, we also talked to Eryk Anders -- a linebacker-turned-UFC fighter who sealed the 2009 title game for the Tide -- and he couldn't say enough good things about Nick Saban AND Kirby Smart!!

One of baseball's most dangerous power hitters ain't done swinging for the fences just yet ... 'cause 38-year-old Ryan Howard tells TMZ Sports he's gunning to return to the MLB this season!!

We spoke with the 2006 National League MVP about his future in baseball ... and the 3-time All-Star makes it very clear he's not ready to walk away just yet.

"I'm still active, so we'll see what happens. Right now, we're kinda in the belly of the beast," Howard says.

Howard blew up early in his career ... leading the league in homers 2 different seasons. He spent most of last season bouncing around the minor leagues, but wants to put any retirement talk to rest:

The Ball bros (mostly LaMelo) had some sick hoops to kick off their pro careers in Lithuania ... but there was some ugliness, too -- and we cut up the video for all you Ball fans/haters out there.

Young Melo probably had the plays of the game -- a dope, no-look dish on a fast break and a Kobe-esque up-and-under reverse (see that, Lakers??). But LM also got sloppy with the rock and missed all his 3-balls.

LiAngelo got the start and looked sluggish out the gates ... but recovered to outscore his little bro, 19 to 10.

Of course, LaVar was watching in the stands -- and lost his mind whenever anything good happened.

Oh, and over 100,000 FANS tuned in. BBB's clearly doing something right.

Dallas Cowboys WR Cole Beasley ... can rap.

The 28-year-old slot receiver just dropped the first single from his new album. It's called "80 Stings" and Cole hits on everything from Dak Prescott's throwing ability to his professional relationship with Jerry Jones.

He also addresses the fact he's a white rapper -- and how nobody expected him to have real rap skills.

"Who knew, huh? White dude rappin' too tough."

Spoiler: He's pretty good.

Beasley is dead serious about hip-hop and even started his own record company, ColdNation Records, to put his music out.

Some of the lyrics from the track ...

"Can’t snap a necklace up off me, cuz I don’t have one. Spent that on college funds for both my sons ... but that’s 4 accounts I’m accounting for. Another 2 that’s yet to come, yes I have enough."
