The Dodgers hosted an epic World Series parade Friday ... and some of the players' wives and girlfriends were certainly dressed for the occasion -- getting hooked up with some one-of-a-kind jackets in honor of the team's eighth World Series celebration!!!

Michelle of Custom Bling tells TMZ Sports she got right to work the moment the champs defeated the New York Yankees Wednesday night in the Bronx -- saying she hustled to get the project done in time for the celebration through the streets of DTLA.

The denim jackets -- requested by the wives of Will Smith, Chris Taylor, NLCS MVP Tommy Edman and Walker Buehler -- are decked out with blue and gold Swarovski crystals in the shape of the Commissioner's Trophy.

Rose Namajunas has accomplished nearly everything over the course of her career in MMA ... and while she still has eyes on getting back her championship belt -- she tells TMZ Sports she wouldn't mind stepping out of the Octagon and into the boxing ring one day!

We caught up with the fifth-ranked UFC flyweight ahead of her upcoming bout against third-ranked Erin Blanchfield ... and while she is not sleeping on EB -- who is known for her grappling -- Rose believes she is overall the better fighter.

"I feel I'm superior in all areas of MMA," Rose said. "Especially being able to mix it all up, that's what I do best. I'm really looking forward to the challenge. I know she's a tough opponent, so I'm very prepared."

Fat Joe became the butt of all jokes at the Los Angeles Dodgers championship parade day when Enrique Hernández credited him with helping the New York Yankees LOSE the World Series!!!

Kiké took the podium Friday and had no shame in his game sizing up the effectiveness of Ice Cube's performance in comparison to Joe's Timberland'ed time on the mound 😬

Game 2 featured the former N.W.A. leader even impressing a few Yankees with his performance of "Bow Down" and "It Was A Good Day" -- and Kiké says the Blue Crew had the game in the bag.

Matthew Stafford's wife says she loves Taylor Swift, but initially wasn't too happy with the pop superstar crossing over into her world ... admitting the NFL's coverage of Travis Kelce's romance made her "jealous."

Kelly Stafford weighed in on the topic on her "The Morning After" podcast ... when she made it clear her issue wasn't with Swift at all, but more so how her relationship with the Kansas City Chiefs superstar was attracting a ton of buzz.

"I will say I kind of got tired of the Chiefs’ coverage of it, actually the NFL’s coverage, of this budding relationship last year," Stafford said. "And can she do anything about that? No, she can’t."

The Dodgers just wrapped up their World Series parade ... and it was epic -- as it featured Walker Buehler slugging beer, Dave Roberts dancing on Ice Cube ... and even Shohei Ohtani addressing fans in English!

Buehler's chug got all the festivities kicked off on Friday afternoon ... as just after the team's championship busses got going down their parade route through downtown Los Angeles, he whipped out a beer bong and guzzled a cold one.

For the next hour or so, around an estimated two million people cheered on the newly minted champs as they made their way through the roadways.

Aaron Rodgers is putting to bed any rumors he was shaded by Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans following the Jets 21-17 win on Thursday night ... saying the two dapped each other up -- the cameras just missed it!

Rodgers appeared on the Pat McAfee Show Friday morning ... where good buddy A.J. Hawk asked whether there was any beef between the two men after video began circulating online seemingly showing Ryans ignoring Rodgers after the clock hit 00:00.

Some fans speculated the alleged beef was due to AR's relationship with fired Jets HC, Robert Saleh, who is friends with DeMeco.

The 39-year-old was confused at first ... clearly not aware of the controversy. Then the guys pulled up the clip.

Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets kept their season on life support with a big win over C.J. Stroud and the Houston Texans ... and the MVP of the game?? Well, it wasn't a player or coach ... it was water with cayenne pepper!

Rodgers (as he's pretty accustomed to) made news this week when he revealed he'd discovered "a little fountain of youth" with the drink, saying he added it to his rehab regimen for his ruptured Achilles.

Well, after Gang Green's 21-17 win over the current AFC South leaders, Rodgers and the teammate who recommended the drink to him, punter Thomas Morstead, posed together for a picture!

Donald Trump and Mark Cuban's war over women is now going off the rails ... with the two trading barbs about phone calls and their skills on the golf course.

In ripping Mark for going on TV and saying Trump isn't surrounding himself with "strong, intelligent women," Trump claims Cuban has done a 180 with him ... claiming Mark used to "incessantly" call him up when he was in the White House.

But, Mark says not so fast ... telling TMZ, "I didn't have his number, so I couldn't have called him."

Adam Schefter had football fans in a tizzy after being accused of using an illegal streaming site to watch "Thursday Night Football" ... but sure enough, it wasn't what it looked like.

The longtime ESPN talent posted a clip of Jets receiver Malachi Corley's bone-headed fumble during the second quarter of New York's matchup with the Houston Texans ... but instead of focusing on the lowlight, folks noticed a MethStreams watermark in the top left corner of the video.

Naturally, that led people to assume Schefty didn't have an Amazon Prime membership and wanted to use other means to tune in to the action ... which would be a bad look for one of the biggest insiders in the league.

Kurt Busch has pled guilty to a criminal charge of driving while impaired, TMZ Sports has learned.

The shocking story was laid out in a New York Times article this week ... when a man named Chris Mancinelli revealed his father, Alfred, was convinced he was interacting with the real 33-year-old Bliss.

Mancinelli explained Alfred had a history of dealing with scammers ... as he "opened his heart" to them, allowing for him to be manipulated with sob stories.

Freddie Freeman is proving to be a prime example that no matter your profession, daddy duty always comes first ... 'cause the World Series MVP took his kids trick-or-treating just one day after winning the title!

Freddie, who raked 4 home runs while clobbering the Yankees game in, game out, along with his wife Chelsea Freeman, took to social media to document the adorable moment ... only hours after the team landed back in L.A. after winning the W.S. Wednesday night in NYC.

Best Halloween costume of the year goes to Ron Artest III ... who celebrated the holiday dressed as his ex-NBA star pops from his infamous Malice at the Palace brawl!!

Metta Sandiford-Artest's 25-year-old son -- a spitting image of the 2010 champ -- rocked a ripped No. 91 Pacers jersey for the occasion ... and shared several reference pics to make the connection for his followers, although none was needed.
