Ron Artest And Sports Strangest Name Change

Hello To The Free World

And To The Not So Free World

Ron Artest And Sports Strangest Name Change

I do not like to say this about people, but what is with this guy? Let me jump right into it .Ron Artest of The Los Angeles Lakers wants to legally changing his name

Ron Artest wants to be known as

Metta World Peace

WHY RON?

WHY RON?

WHY RON?

I always found Ron Artest to be an interesting man. I still believe that he has tried to be the modern day Dennis Rodman and he does not even come close to being like Dennis Rodman. Ron Artest wants to be famous and outragous as Dennis was ,I mean he is almost doing the same things as Rodman such as

FIGHTING 

TATOOS

FIGHTING

GETTING ALOT OF REBOUNDS

FIGHTING

Ron Artest is a great defensive player and he has been honored for his contributions to the community. Artest plays tough and sometimes real ugly. Rodman played the same, but a little better.

.

But now Artest's toughest play of his career is changing his name. Ron Artest is legally changing his name and  he would not be the first  NBA player to change his name ,but Ron Artest's reasons and pick of  the name makes no sense. Metta is supposed to be a Buddhism term relating to peace. But what I am trying to understand is why is he doing this?

Does he want peace?
Is he looking for personal peace?
Is it for publicity?

Is if for inner spiritual peace?

What are his reasons?

In my opinion it is all about publicity It is another situation like the former Chad Johnson ,NFL player Chad Johnson legally changed his name to Chad Ochocinco. Ochocinco is Spanish for 8 and 5 and he wears the number 85 .Kareem Abdul Jabar used to be known as Lou Alcindor. He changed his name for a Muslim and civic rights reason.

The last NBA player to have a name with the world World in it was former NBA great World B. Free.The former Lloyd  B.Free got his name from a teammate who gave him the name because has two great abilities which were a 44 inch vertical leap and  he did  great 360 degree slam dunks. His 360 degree slam dunks made him rotate like the world. So, I can understand this name change and this name change sounded great plus it made sense.

Sports reporters are wondering what will Ron Artest put on the back of his jersey

Will it be just PEACE?

Will it be just WORLD?

Or will it be WORLD PEACE?

Maybe it will be CRAZY MAN!.

To me there is nothing wrong with a man or a woman changing their name.If you change your name there must be significant reasons to the name change. You must have an intelligent and strong meaning behind the name change. But for Ron Artest a man who has been the most unpredictable NBA  player I have ever seen

I just do not understand the reason for the name change and I just think it is a dumb idea.

BUT GO LAKERS!

Have A Good Night Everyone

It Was Nice Speaking To You All
