Tila Tequila is letting her bruises do the talking in a lawsuit she just filed against her ex, NFL star Shawne Merriman.

Tila claims Shawne grabbed her, shook her like a rag doll, threw her down and choked her during an argument last September. Tila says the San Diego Chargers linebacker had a bad temper combined with a drug problem, and that he humiliated her because of her bi-sexuality.In the lawsuit, Tila's lawyer, Cyrus Nownejad, included a photo gallery (above) showing the disparity in height and weight (Tila -- 4'11", 93 lbs. Shawne -- 6'4", 280 lbs). The photos also show bruising on her arms, which Tila says is courtesy of Shawne.The San Diego County D.A. declined to file criminal charges.Tila's suit -- for assault, battery, false imprisonment and emotional distress -- seeks unspecified damages.

First thing...How sweet is Merriman's mohawk? How could anyone with a hawk that ill be guilty of anything. If I'm Shawne Merriman I walk into the courtroom with total confidence that the suit will be tossed based just on the hawk.....TOOOOO SWEEEEEEEET!!!

On a more serious note, How pathetic does Tila Tequila look? Granted Merriman is a known juicer (and I'm not talking about carrot and beet), but what makes Tila Tequila think she has any shred of credibility? Essentially this is a case of who's credibility is less shattered, and personally I'm gonna take Merriman.

There's a reason Merriman was cleared of any criminal wrongdoing by the San Diego County DA, and its not because hes a star athlete. You can throw that theory out simply based on the fact that Tila is a celebrity herself. The reason Merriman was cleared is because everyone knows, no matter what she says that Tila is a Tequila guzzling, party hopping, inhibition losing whore. Just watch an episode of her reality show "Shot of Love" and you'll see what I'm talking about.

I'm not saying that Merriman didn't hold Tila against her will, I'm just arguing that chances are he did it for her own good. The police said that when they arrived to the scene back in September Tila Tequila was visibly intoxicated, and Merriman seemed to be stone sober.

It's sad because chances are Shawne Merriman will not want to deal with the BS and will settle outta court. I just hope Merriman did his "lights out" dance after he knocked Tila out.
