I go on vacation and Ron Ron decides to go and sign with LA

I promised myself I wasn’t going to log on this weekend, but I’m sorry, anytime Ron Ron signs in the entertainment capital of the world, I need to say something. Obviously, I’m thrilled. Don’t believe me? He’s already been at Diddy’s white party this weekend. And since the 1 AM Sportscenter is across the street from the Staples Center, he’ll be on that more. He was on Thursday night in a hat that said, “So Gutta” and said he was going to “hoodalize” the show. I see no way in this will end badly. Oh, and he’s reuniting with his former AAU teammate, L Odom, assuming he resigns. Yes, the one he rapped about smoking weed at halftime with.
From a basketball perspective, I really like it because if there’s any coach who can control crazy Ron, it’s Jackson. I see Phil going to Ron, “I coached Rodman to 3 titles. You have nothing on him.” And it frees Kobe up from having to guard the opponents best perimeter player.
And I’m pretty much demanding a Ron Artest reality show in LA. Since Triple 6 took the “Hollyhood” title, we’ll need to work on an alternative name. “From QB to Rodeo Drive”? If we can’t get a reality show, I’ll settle for him remaking the “To Live and Die in LA” video going around LA.
Obviously, I’ll have more over the course of the summer on this, but for now, here’s something entertaining. Ron’s actual twitter feed and one done as a joke. You know the Real Ron Artest isn’t real because you knew his twitter would involve QB and Tru Warier is some way. And of course it does. I’m not sure which one I find funnier. The fake one had some quotes that had me laughing my ass off, but the real one is equally as ridiculous. Just look at that bio. Alright, I’ll stop talking and just let you enjoy them.

And to answer your question, yes, one of them does get in a twitter fight with Chad OchoCinco (Have I stopped smiling every time I type name? No. And I don’t think I ever will.)

RIP Steve McNair. As someone who knows a little bit about playing through pain, I can say you amazed me. I think a hail of bullets was the only thing that could have taken you down.
