Calvin Johnson jumped up and started sprinting in celebration. They had just connected on what they thought was the go-ahead touchdown, the pass that would finally give the Detroit Lions a road win after three years. Not so fast. “The first thing that went through my head was that we finally won in Chicago,†Johnson said. “I found out after I sprinted halfway across the field that it didn’t count. It is what it is, and now it’s over.†Matthew Stafford injured a shoulder at the end of the first half, but the Lions were still in position to pull this one out even after they fell behind late in the game. For a few moments, it looked as if they had done just that. The Lions had second-and-10 at the 25 with 31 seconds left when Johnson outjumped Chicago’s Zackary Bowman in the end zone for an apparent touchdown. Johnson appeared to have gotten both feet down inbound and rolled over before letting the ball go, but a potential winner was ruled an incomplete pass, “The ruling is that in order for the catch to be completed he has got to maintain possession of the ball throughout the entire process of the catch,†said referee Gene Steratore.

Be warned, Kanye: Taylor Swift has written a song about you, and she’s singing it at Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards. The country superstar’s win for best female video last year was marred when Kanye West got on stage and said it should have gone to Beyonce. Swift wrote a song about the experience earlier this year, and a source familiar with the show said Saturday the 20-year-old will sing the new song at the VMAs, which will be aired live on MTV. The source did not want to be identified because of the sensitivity of the matter. The song is on Swift’s upcoming album “Speak Now,” due out in October.  The source said Swift performed it during a secret rehearsal in Los Angeles for the VMAs on Friday.
Leonardo DiCaprio was granted a restraining order against a “delusional” woman, who believes she is married to the actor and carrying his child. An L.A. County Superior Court judge just ruled that 41-year-old Livia Bistriceanu must stay at least 100 yards away from DiCaprio for the next three years. As we previously reported, DiCaprio claims the woman has repeatedly tried to contact him… and in his declaration said, “I am frightened of Ms. Bistriceanu and feel that my personal safety, and the personal safety of those around me, is in jeopardy.”
