And some players are being fined for Tweeting at halftime? That’s nothing compared to what Ron Artest admitted to doing at halftime when he played for the Chicago Bulls (1999-2002).
Ron Artest told Sporting News he used to drink Hennessy at the halftime of NBA games. He kept the cognac in his locker.
That, ladies and gentlemen, is called alcoholism.
Thank goodness he wasn’t drinking and Tweeting. Whoa, Nelly!
The late Michael Jackson said he bleached his skin not to get rid of his dark-colored skin, but to make his Vitilgo less noticeable.
Former Chicago Cubs slugger Sammy Sosa doesn’t have Vitilgo, but his skin has become noticeably lighter lately.
Rebecca Polihronis, who used to be a Cubs employee, told the Chicago Tribune that Sosa is going through a rejuvenation process for his skin:
“Women have it all of the time. He was surprised he came out looking so white. I thought it was a body double. Part of (the photo appearance) is just the lighting.
“He is in the middle of doing a cleansing process to his skin. The picture is deceiving. He said, ‘If you saw me in person, you would be surprised. When you see me in person, it is not going to seem like the picture.’
“People who saw him in person did not react the same way. He can’t believe it is such a big deal.”
We’ve gotten word from Nick at Nite that a Munsters remake is in the works. Sosa is the lead candidate for Eddie Munster.
Exactly 25 years ago today, Michael Jordan changed the game of basketball. For just $375 Jordan junkies can get their paws on this Jordan collection by Mitchell & Ness. It’s too much money for a replica if you ask us, but hey, that’s the game of sports marketing.
That’s a hell of a lot better than paying $15,000 for a jersey from Jordan first hand when he’s going to be a complete ass bag to you.
Sorry about this folks, but yes, we do have some Dennis Rodman stuff for you for the second day in a row. Turns out the cross-dressing, year-round human Halloween costume might be straighter than we once thought he was.
He was at a club in Miami when he allegedly grabbed a woman’s crotch. (Not the woman to the right. That’s just another one of Rodman’s play toys.)
Per the Chicago Tribune:
A woman accused former Bulls star Dennis Rodman of touching her inappropriately at a nightclub early Friday in Miami Beach, police said.
According to an incident report, the woman said she was at LIV nightclub with friends when Rodman walked up to her, whispered something in her ear, then put his hand between her legs and grabbed her crotch area. The woman called security and Miami Beach police responded.
Witnesses say Rodman was looking for more jewelry to add to his face.
It doesn’t matter how real or fake this story is, or whether you like or don’t like Chamillionaire’s music, this is an interesting story about how Michael Jordan was a dick to him at a party. Not that we didn’t already know everything we needed to know about MJ from his Hall-of-Fame Induction speech.
We know all about the man, Michael Jordan. We know all about the legend, and we thought we know all of the history. Until now.
