Can I get a ROFL copter? Thanks Ron, you're the best except for you know, a few legends.

I'm a bit late posting this, but Penn State's women's volleyball team recently won its 100th straight match. This is an amazing record, and with 2 more wins they will once again be NCAA champions. One more win will give their coach, Russ Rose, his 1,000th career win.

I saw that on ESPN a few weeks ago. I'm still getting over the image of one of their star players (I think it was Megan Hodge) wearing contacts with the PSU logo on them.

I can't believe the same woman has been married to Ron Artest for 16 years. That woman must be a saint.

Ron Artest is not as bad a guy as people think. He's a lot different today than he was during the Malice in the Palace. I like how his letter claims he's committed "50 or more publicly known issues and mistakes." I wish he'd list them.
If Tiger Woods needs a new posse, he could do a lot worse than Artest.

In 2007, Artest almost starved to death his dog and had to serve a sentence for domestic violence. He calls himself ghetto and says that he is representing his culture more than other folks. Whatever that means. And, worst of all, he introduced Lamar Odom to Khloe Kardashian.

An open letter to Tiger. From Ron Artest.
