Long Summer.



Random sports-related post, because ski racing is taking a nap for a while.

Ron Artest, the man responsible for the Palace Brawl back in 2004, is going to change his name to Metta World Peace.  Not Ron anymore.  Now Metta.  World Peace.  Metta is word for the Buddhist virtue of kindness.  Watch that video again.

The question is whether or not the NBA has printed up his official merchandise for next year, and thusly whether or not they'll accept the name change.  Chad Ochocinco had to wait a year after his name change for that very reason.  Surely the "World Peace" or "Peace" jerseys will fly off the shelves.

Remember when Vonn changed her name from Kildow?  That was less impressive I think.
