MIKE TYSON recently completed his one-man Broadway show - directed by Spike Lee - called "Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth."

So what's next?

"I want to dance and sing. I want to do some dancing and singing musicals," Tyson said. "I want to be like Billy Madison."

Someone might want to tell the former heavyweight champ that he meant to say "Billy Elliot," a musical based on the film of the same name in which a boy trades his boxing gloves for ballet slippers.

"Billy Madison" is a comedy starring Adam Sandler, who plays an uneducated goofball.

Come to think of it, maybe Tyson did mean "Billy Madison."

Price isn't right

If you thought there was no way reports that Nike would charge more than $300 for LeBron James' new signature sneakers were true, well . . . you're right.

Pairs of LeBron X will cost only $270. And that's only if you get the Nike+ version, which includes the Sport Kit that has motion sensors to measure how high a player can jump.

You couldn't make this stuff up.

If you're cheap, you can get the nonplussed version for a mere $180. For the $90 difference you can pay someone to tell you how high you can jump.

As for us, we'll stick with our PF Flyers.

Dirty birds

Eagles fans occasionally have run-ins with dopey Giants or Cowboys fans. But that's nothing compared to what Broncos fans have to deal with.

Fans in Section 306 of Denver's Sports Authority Field have to dodge pigeon droppings.

"I found out a pigeon had pooped on the back of my shirt," fan Allison Harden said after Sunday's game vs. the Steelers. "These are $250 seats. [We're] sitting there trapped in this kind of a situation. Any moment a pigeon [will] poop on you."

Sounds like a bunch of crap to us.
