Ron Artest is your problem now, LA.

Ron Artest is known for a lot of things… many of them not good.  But with each new stop, we hear people say "if we get the good Artest… this is a great signing."  In fact, you can hear that on full display on the last 8th Seed Podcast.

And maybe this time it will be different.  It's a fresh start on a championship club.  What's past is past, right?  There's no need to drudge up some old crap like… oh… the Palace brawl.

Mistake # 1: Re-living the most embarrassing incident in league history.
Mistake #2:  Videotaping yourself re-livingthe most embarrassing incident in league history.
Mistake #3:  Posting the tape of you re-living the most embarrassing incident in league history on YouTube.

What did he think… we don't get the same internet China gets?  C'mon Lakers fans… there are a ton of you on the site today… you've got to admit this is really dumb.  This doesn't bother you… not even a little?

I will give him credit, though.  He picked the hottest girl in the province to open the video.  That's solid.
