Stephen Jackson Is A Changed Man




Are you hod? You aren't as hood as NBA player Stephen Jackson. Yes, THAT Stephen Jackson who along with Ron Artest went into the stands to beat up Detroit Piston fans (click that link for a great story). THAT Stephen Jackson who let off a few rounds outside an Indianapolis, IN strip club prior to the start of the 2006/07 NBA season.

Over the summer, Stephen got himself a new tattoo, same old attitude. It's a tattoo of praying hands clutching a gun surrounded by church windows. He says it means, "I pray I never have to use this again."

That's hood!

I just hope he doesn;t lose his shot come playoff time this year (provided the Warriors make it of course).

What the hell? Of all things to get tattoed on you....praying hands clutching a GUN? That's definitely pretty hood.

WOW...that is extra hood. I could imagine how the convo went with the tattoo artist...wish I was there. That will be an interesting look when he is 50...so i guess he is praying that God watch over him as he shoots his target...oh ok, makes sense...(not really)

@ Anser

I think he is thinking about the same thing he thought when he ran up in the stands in Detroit.

Lol, I can't even imagine how that convo went.

Stephen: Here I will get my gun and show you what I want it to look like.

Now you know I am a bit partial on this one b/c I have had the pleasure of being in the same company of Mr. Jackson and the man is a true character!!!! I'm not really surprised by this tattoo or by his explanation. I would like to hear HIM explain it in an unedited forum where he can truly express himself. THAT's what would've been priceless :-) Maybe someone should ask one of his MULTIPLE kids by MULTIPLE baby momma's (that he will curse you out about in a minute) what they think about daddy's tattoo!!!!!

That dude has lost his mind and his up-bringing! He was a choir boy when we was growing up so this "Thug Life" role he playin is really Sad! Everybody speaks of this shooting But... He was fightin AND shooting at a Handicapped man! Not So Gangsta 2 Me! He should focus on what real... like them kids! They deserve more than the money BE A MAN SPEND TIME!!!!!!!

@ Razzi

Thank you for coming here. I enjoy your blogs.

You would actually call being in Stephen Jackson's company "pleasure?" Lol.

Stephen Jackson unedited? I would pay to watch that.

Thank you for the info. I was not aware that he was fighting a handicapped man. Was the guy in a wheelchair?

How many kids does he have?
