"Ron Artest is sorry. Sorry it happened, sorry it caused so much damage to the Indiana Pacers' season, sorry it disrupted so many lives. He's not backing down, though. He will continue to record music. He will continue to produce music. He will continue to market himself on his Web site. He has plans to participate in a semi-autobiographical movie project. He doesn't want to change his style of play, either. Yes, there probably will be more flagrant fouls." Indianapolis Star
"Next summer, (Artest) also plans to begin filming that movie. He helped with the script, which provides a fictionalized account of his life while growing up in Queensbridge, N.Y., and "being around drugs and guns and the police and playing ball." It will be produced by Rhino Studios in Miami, which has filmed a video for "Oh Yeah." Indianapolis Star
"(Artest) said he has turned down endorsement offers from major clothing and shoe manufacturers, preferring to go his own way in the business world. He'll wear various brands of game shoes this season until a model designed exclusively for him can be manufactured. He wants to let fans design it through a contest on his site, but he does not plan to market it." Indianapolis Star
I think a nice ending to the movie would be Ron winning a championship this year
