Ron-Ron’s Favorite Album?

- Ron Artest vs Souls of Mischief: This is why Ron-Ron is so beloved:

He celebrated his fresh start by christening a new jersey number. After wearing Nos. 15, 23, 91 and 15 again in his stops in Chicago and Indiana, he went for 93. The inspiration for it came from a hip-hop album by the group Souls of Mischief called "93 'Til Infinity." For Artest, the number symbolizes an unlimited future and a release from emotional burdens.

Reminds me of this. Amazing. God speed, Ron-Ron. God speed.

- GQ’s 10 Most Hated Athletes: Y’all see GQ’s 10 Most Hated Athletes yet? Shit is funny. Kobe is on there (duh) and, not surprisingly, TO takes #1. Some of the others are interesting, too. The best part though is from the “5 Who Just Missed the Cut” segment about Rasheed Wallace. Peep the blurb:

In Portland, Rasheed, the Blazers’ best player, pissed off teammates by getting kicked out of games so often. Along with Bonzi Wells, he would at times engage in less-than-professional behavior as well, making headlines on one occasion for playfully firing a basketball across a practice court and directly into the nuts of Blazers center Ruben Boumtje Boumtje. “Bonzi and Rasheed ran off the court laughing. They thought that was the funniest thing,” says Jason Quick, of the Portland Oregonian. Freed of Bonzi’s influence, Wallace won a ring in Detroit.

I’ve been laughing hysterically in my cubicle for three minutes now.

- Pimp of the Year Busted: Pimpin’ ain’t easy. Or so I’ve been told.

- Man = God: A Reading, PA man signed his name as “God” on his voter registration form. He claims it’s just his signature. That’s pretty funny.
