When do you know you’re in trouble? When Metta World Peace is giving you advice.

World Peace says Marcus Smart can learn from the fallout that will come after the Oklahoma State All-American shoved a fan during a game at Texas Tech.

World Peace was known as Ron Artest in 2004 when he, then playing for the Pacers, ran into the stands and attacked a Pistons fan he thought threw a beer on him.

World Peace says Smart should direct his emotion toward winning. He says he would advise Smart to listen to his elders and be more conscious of the big picture when making choices.

One of the most scrutinized Olympic moments over the weekend had more to do with lip-reading than athletic competition.

TiVo said that the one moment people rewound their DVRs to watch more than any other on Saturday night was when unhappy American skater Ashley Wagner looked at the scoreboard to find her scores after skating to Pink Floyd.

She wasn’t pleased.

Her one-word response looked about as sour as her expression.

Facebook also said Sunday that Wagner was one of the most talked-about subjects on the popular social media site over the weekend.
