The Suns' Raja Bell is now writing a column/ diary/ blog for ESPN.com, and it is beyond amazing. Every paragraph is gold. An example from his recent trip to Vegas for a preseason game against the Lakers:
I won some money playing craps, which is always nice. What wasn't so nice: Boris, LB, Pat Burke, a couple others and myself were turned away from the club at Caesar's Palace. The culprit: My Chuck Taylor sneaks. Can you believe that? NBA players getting turned away by a bouncer? Vegas doesn't mess around with their attire rules. Whatever. It was a one-day trip, so I brought what I was wearing. And no, I'm not the guy who comes to the Vegas bacherlor party with jeans and sneaks and screws up everyone's plans. I take my bachelor parties very seriously.
On new sponsorship opportunities:
Taco Bell is a sponsor for the Suns, and I guess "Bell and Bell" made sense to someone, because I'm now neck deep in The Bell. This weekend, I went in to meet-and-greet some Bell honchos and to talk about some charitable endeavors. They also gave me a card with my name and photo on it, which basically means I can dine at any Taco Bell whenever and with whoever I want, all courtesy of The Bell. Good stuff, that Bell.
Now that's a sweet deal. I'm a recovering Taco Bell addict, but give me an unlimited meals card and I'd relapse immediately. I love the Double Decker Taco Supreme. And I guess they've got something that's "smunchy" now. I never catch what those commercials are advertising; I just want to lie in bed with that funny girl on a Sunday morning and laugh while we do the crossword.
UPDATE: TrueHoop and I are on the same wavelength here. About Raja Bell, that is. I don't know his feelings on Taco Bell.

cruncheweezy
the actress’s name is caitlin keats. she was also in kill bill v2 (as one of uma’s friends in the church). as well as a few other commercials. and yeah, she’s good looking.
If Raja hits a home run tonight, he’ll own the entire corporation.
The Cheesy Gordita Crunch is a little slice of heaven.
Raja Bell chronology:
1.) Raja Bell? (Didnt he go to MSU? Different Bell?)
2.) Reputedly works hard, actually plays defense, (thats slightly not uncool)
3.) Took zero shit from Kobe, Tooled Kobe media-wise afterwards (Hmm, this guy’s ok)
4.) Reveals himself to articulate, self-aware blogger (Hell yeah, dude!)
ohhhhh if only he could clotheline Kobe’s ass smack into a Taco Bell deep fryer. mmmmmm, Cheesy Jackass Gordita Crunch, twoeightnine.
my favoritest moment of the 06 playoffs, bar none. oh, YouTube, where are you . . .
ahhhhhhhhh
Hon, let me tell you, if you were eating Double Decker Taco Supremes at 2 AM (cause theres really no other time to be eating Taco Bell) no girl that hot is going to want anything to do with being in bed with you on Sunday morning.
