    In the piece Artest said that Animal Control brought his dogs back on three separate occassions after "escaping" from his property, not that Animal Control seized the dogs:
    Sure, that's what Artest said himself.

    What has animal control said?

    Well .....

    According to Animal Control Artests pets have spent a total of 77 nights in shelters.

    But hey, he paid the fines ($1,942) but obviously didn't change his doggy duty regiment. Or lack thereof.

    Neighbors have a right to be annoyed by feeling responsibility towards the animals. And, according to this new piece neighbors have tried to help, somewhat. But still, not their responsibility.

    Unsolicited advice: Ron, ditch the dogs and bring your family to Sacramento.

    Still, original point being this is not extremely newsworthy, nor did it deserve a scroll message on the bottom of Kings T.V. flagstation, still stands.

    I have no frigging idea. He lives in a gated environment, otherwise I would have offered my services to care for his dogs by now. And once inside, I DEFINITELY would have gotton to the bottom of his living like a bachelor when he has a family.

    And before anyone points out that this isn't ABOUT Ron's kids, maybe the authorities should look into why Artest is not living with them and his wife. Because clearly, they are nowhere to be found. Frankly, I find that WAY more troubling--character wise--than allowing one dog to dominate another's food bowl, or not being able to corral 7 dogs, or not finding a perfect "doggy watcher".

    He never seemed much of a dog-loving person anyway.

    Cruel.

    Artest is just an oddball. I saw him at an airport in indiana and. I get to luggage claim, and I see him pick up like four cardboard boxes, all roughly the size of a cooler, and stack them on his shoulders (huge man!). So he goes outside and waits for about 3-4 minutes, with these massive, heavy looking boxes on his shoulders the whole time. People ask for his autograph, bu he sais he can't becasue of the boxes blah blah

    The whole time he looks extremely tense and twitchy. Not at all unlike his usual demeanor in basketball games.

    idiot, do you know the definition of animal cruelty? the dogs were being tortured because of Artest's stupidity.

    A man with Artest's IQ shouldn't even be allowed to have a goldfish
    I guess that's his problem, is it?

    It's not like he killed the damn dogs. The guy's busy.
    WTF? Not only does he have a wife (i've seen her with him, btw she look just as crazy as him), but he can probably (sarcasm) afford to pay someone to feed them. He shoudn't have bought the dogs in the first place if he knew he wasn't going to be able to care for them.

    But the last thing he should be doing is buying stuff he has to take care of. He can't even take care of himself, if he did he'd be in a mental asylum. The guy could have been an actor in One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest without any telling him how to act.

    So Kings fans, what kinds of excuses do you have for Qyntel Woods? Are you going to just strictly look at the whole incident from his point of view, and ignore evidence from authorities and witnesses?

    I just find it amusing how people can validate players doing something that is absolutely disgusting, like torturing animals, when said player helps their favourite teams win.
    And I have a hard time figuring out, is it the player who's more revolting, or is it the fans who come up with the excuses...
