| Current Featured Columns | | Howard's Role In The Gold For the first time in eight years, there won't be any talk of failure, or the world catching up, only praises for the Olympic champions – that is unless your name is Dwight Howard. Grading The Deal: Williams To Cleveland In Three-WayMo Williams just barely outperformed the first year of his new contract, but he gives Cleveland's offense a few more teeth.

In light of the Ron Artest saga entering its final month (the trading deadline is one month away). I have decided to put my feelings about the situation into the most passionate form of human expression, song.
I’ve chosen to parody Nickelback’s “How You Remind Me.” Due to my singing voice, or lack there of, I’ve chosen to showcase my work of art on paper, or rather on your computer screen. Any struggling artist, who might need a catchy pop song to jumpstart their career, is welcome to inquire about recording this masterpiece.
Never made it as a Pacer
You couldn’t cut as J.O.’s teammate
Tired of living like a blind fan
I’m sick of you without a sense of winning
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what we could have been
This is how you remind me
Of what we could have been
It’s not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on another mishap
This time I’m mistaken
For cheering for a guy worth booing
And I’ve been wrong, I’ve been down
I even traded you in NBA Live
These five words in my head
Scream “are you out of Indy?”
Go, go, go, Ron-Ron
Leave, leave, leave, Ron-Ron
It’s not like you didn’t know that
We stood beside you when you went in the stands
And you have been so bad
Cause playing for Rick must have damn near killed you
And this is how you remind me
Of what we could have been
This is how you remind me
Of what we could have been
It’s not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on another outburst
This time I’m mistaken
For buying a number 91 jersey
And I’ve been wrong, I’ve been down
I even bought your bobble head doll
These five words in my head
Scream “are you out of Indy?”
Go, go, go, Ron-Ron
Go, go, go, Ron-Ron
Go, go, go, Ron-Ron
Go, go, go, Ron-Ron
Never made it as a Pacer
You couldn’t bring Reggie a title
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what we could have been
This is how you remind me
Of what we could have been
It’s not like you to say sorry
I was waiting for another brawl
This time I’m mistaken
For punching that fan from Detroit
And I’ve been wrong, I’ve been down
I even egged Dave Stern’s house
These fives words in my head
Scream “are you out of Indy?”
Go, go
Are you out of Indy?
Go, go
Are you out of Indy?
Go, go
Are you out of Indy?
Go, go |
