Photo fun: Stephon Marbury's new head tattoo

By J.E. Skeets

Much like Mike Tyson, who went through a stretch of bizarre events and face ink, Knicks guard Stephon Marbury appears to have reached the point of no sane return by tattooing a Starbury logo on his freakin' head. Here's a shot of the chrome-domed billboard, via the good folks at Posting and Toasting:

Deadspin's Daulerio thinks it's "probably as subtle as you can get for a head tattoo," and I can't disagree. I have a oddly-shaped mole on the back of my skull that looks exactly like that. It's uncanny.

But, hey, why stop the fun there? This Marbury ink just screams BDL photoshop contest. Such as ...

What tattoo are we likely to see next on Marbury's head?

Here's your canvas:


Do your best and post it the comments or email it to us if you want to remain anonymous. We'll post the winners later this week. (My submission, if I could actually Photoshop worth a damn: a draped towel. Feel free to use that.)

Update: See all the winners!

    How about the nickname for Richard. Think it through and it's really quite appropriate.

    On the theme of Marbury advertising his products on his head... He was the cover boy for NBA Ballers video game. This would be a sweet tattoo.

    Here's mine.
    We all know he hated Isiah with a passion and played a big part in Isiah's demise. Now he's set his sights on D'Antoni...and Mike better fear Steph's latest subtle warning of what he does to coaches who don't play him.

    Well at least we know how he's spending that big paycheck Isiah gave him. I'm assuming he's smoking crack with Isiah as well. Maybe he can tattoo a crack rock on the other side.
