Ron Artest: Focused With Hennessey, And Keeping It Hood For Eternity

Of all the players in the NBA who should be obligated to give a feature-length interview at least once-a-month, Ron Artest probably tops the list. Either that, or he should forbidden from ever giving feature interviews. Depends on your perspective, I guess.

His latest revelation, to Sporting News:

"I used to drink Hennessy … at halftime. I (kept it) in my locker. I'd just walk to the liquor store (near the stadium) and get it."

Would you expect anything else? This is the same man who once said, "I'm growing up ... but at the same time I'm hood forever." And of course, his timeless advice for the kids, "Stay focused and stay away from unknown females." Ron Artest, ladies and gentlemen!

Now, quickly: go change the name of your fantasy team... "Hennessey At Halftime."
