I’m sure the title comes as no surprise to anyone considering we are talking about Ron Artest, but this blunder could be even worse than his rap CD. Artest was recently acquired by the Los Angeles Lakers and wants the fans to know if they don’t repeat as NBA Champions they can point their fingers at him. I thought playas would have learned by now you never, and I do mean never, come out and make bold statements and predictions because the chance of them blowing up in your face is extremely high. Artest stated, “They should. That’s exactly what should happen if we don’t repeat,” while promoting an exhibition game in late October at the San Diego Sports Arena. “They won last year, and I’m the new addition. The fans expect to repeat. Everybody in L.A. expects a second ring. And if we don’t then yeah, they should point it right at me, throwing tomatoes and everything.” I’m sure Lakers fans are smart enough to not take the throwing tomatoes statement literally because Ron would not hesitate to jump in the stands and beat your a$$.
Floyd Mayweather Interview Derailed
It’s well known that Floyd Mayweather Jr. loves to talk smack and has no problems mixing it up with the people who interview him. Check out this video of his post fight interview with Max Kellerman after he dismantled Manuel Marquez Saturday night. I could be wrong, but I think Kellerman got a little cash on the side to promote a potential fight between Money Mayweather and Sugar Shane Mosley.
Cowboys Fans Party Hard
Over 105,000 people attended the Cowboys first home game in the new Cowboys Stadium last night and watched Tony Romo throw away the game to the rival New York Giants. Apparently a lot of the fans who attended the game got their drink on in a serious way because 41 people were in Arlington jail at 7 AM this morning after being arrested for public intoxication. There could have been even more people arrested at the game if they bonded out of jail between game time and 6 AM Monday. It sounds like Jerry’s new palace with all the party rooms, fancy art, and mega video board was a complete hit so now all he needs to do is find a quarterback who won’t keep losing games for his beloved team.

Al Davis Rules Raider Nation
Al Davis is the owner of the Oakland Raiders and in many ways Lord of “Raider Nation.” In other words Al Davis is the ghoul who leads the freaks that make up the cast of characters you see all over the place at home games, but also on the road as well. It’s obvious the fans are a few fries short of a Happy Meal, but geez people get a life!
NFL Bets of the Day – September 14th, 2009
Monday Night Football has a double header this evening and Vegas thinks neither game is going to be very close. Generally that means the dogs will play well, but I have a very hard time thinking that will be the case this evening. Good luck!
