Turns out Robinson got inked prior to Game 4, but since he saw just two minutes of time, no one really got a look at the Bentley-styled  winged 8 on his throat. A huge oversight by photographers worldwide, for sure. Thankfully, Nate's nearly nine minutes of burn allowed more than enough time for some snaps of his new neck mural.

With a little digging and a little logic, I've determined that the 8 on Nate's has to refer to "8 Block." And from there, I'm guessing — based on this pretty hilarious rap video that Robinson cameos in — that "8 Block" is a nickname for Seattle's Section 8 housing projects. I could be wrong, but it makes sense since Nate's from Rain City.

Link.

What do you think?

Must've hurt and/or tickled a lot  ;)

Kind of like it, though.

I think Nate should be the one to take Dwight out next game -- go for one of those weak side blocks but just miss a little and sweep the leg.

Sorry -- guess that defeated the purpose of your post.

The tattoo seems cool but usually the players who get tatoo(s) in the neck are kind of crazy so I don't know if it's a good thing.

not a fan of neck tattoos in general.  But this one is even worse:

I like it about as much as I liked game 5 and the refs.

I think D Stevenson has a similar style tat as well. Don't care much for neck tattoos though.

The only thing I hate worse than tats on a guy are tats on a woman.

Is "the Lord" the reason for that tattoo too?

I think it's the Bentley automobile logo and the 8 is a "B". Just looks like it, but not as imaginative as the Seattle housing projects theory.
