...Jersey wants to be Las Vegas, but it falls short. Mike Tyson can tell you that. Kicked out of boxing for munching Evander Holyfield's ear in a prizefight at the MGM Grand on June 28, 1997, he asked forgiveness in New Jersey earlier this summer, but the devil entered him and cussed like a sailor...
...three new judge shows are opening for business. This week Judge Mills Lane debuts, starring the tough-talking Nevada judge who just happened to be the referee the night Mike Tyson masticated Evander Holyfield's ear. Next month brings Judge Joe Brown, a tough-talking Memphis, Tenn., judge who just happened to preside over the reopening of the James Earl Ray case. And even Judge Joseph Wapner, the pioneer TV judge, has been called in to fill a vacancy. Beginning next month, he'll be trying animal-related cases on cable's Animal Planet network. Meanwhile, Playboy TV has started...

Now that Monica is accusing her for the first time--of helping to write the talking points--she may actually find out what being accused of a felony...
...difficult moments, it's important to be among kindred souls. So when MIKE TYSON appeared for his boxing-reinstatement hearing last week before the New Jersey State Athletic Board, he brought along a few character witnesses. Explaining why Tyson might have bitten off a portion of Evander Holyfield's ear in a fight last year, former light-heavyweight champ Bobby Czyz offered, "If I hit an opponent and his eye fell out...I would eat it before he would get it back." Alas, even this touching testimonial did not comfort Tyson. After some tough questioning, the boxer became tearful, then...
