So, I completely missed this upon first viewing of Ron Artest's vlog post, but thanks to Pete Gaines, it was brought to my attention: Artest appears to be smoking...something. Maybe it's a cigarette. Maybe it's a napkin stuffed with pine needles. Maybe he's doing a dragon impersonation. Or, you know, maybe it's a spliff. But...Ron Artest wouldn't be THAT stupid would he? Would he actually film himself smoking weed on camera and then submit it to the website HipHopGame.com? I know he's very adamant about being "hood" and all that, but, man, if this is what it appears to be, well, that tops the list of questionable decision-making from a man who's history of questionable decision-making is already well known.
Granted, this seems like something the league might look into. Hope his supply of Golden Seal is fresh.
