Only one new inductee today, Lakers Fans. I was surprised that the infamous 1969 Coin Flip didn't quite make the cut (67% is needed to get in and only 55% voted yes) but that's why we decided to put these things to a vote. Not everyone holds an equal amount of dislike/disdain for the same thing or person.
The voters also said no to the induction of Antonio McDyess and Michael Beasley which I can agree with. McDyess was kept from a meeting with former Suns teammates that could have changed his decision to return to the Nuggets (which is what we really hated) and brought him back to the Suns. And Beas... well from the moment it was announced the he was going to sign with the Suns I had my doubts that it would work out, although I hoped that it might.

For today I've rounded up what will probably be the final batch of nominees. Yes, I said final. Unless there are a flood of worthy nominations made in the comments section, I think it’s time to move on. Today there are six final nominees for the Ring that I felt worthy of inclusion in the voting, so let's get on with it.
Time to vote!
Tim Donaghy
For those who don't recognize the name, he was an NBA referee who plead guilty to gambling on games, had ties to organized crime, worked in the 2007 Suns-Spurs series and said games in the league were fixed.
Poll
Should Tim Donaghy be inducted into the Phoenix Suns Ring of Dishonor?
Nike

Poll
Should Nike be inducted into the Phoenix Suns Ring of Dishonor?
The NBA Lottery
It's fixed, right? Regardless of whether that is true or false, it's been many, many years since the lottery has been kind to the Suns (1987 was the last time that the Suns actually moved up in the lottery drawing).
Poll
Should The NBA Lottery be inducted into the Phoenix Suns Ring of Dishonor?
The 2008 Suns attempted remake
Yes, that was the season that then GM Steve Kerr hired Terry Porter as the Suns' new head coach, brought Shaquille O'Neal to the team and the Suns attempted to do away with the SSOL style of play.
Poll
Should The 2008 Suns attempted remake be inducted into the Phoenix Suns Ring of Dishonor?
Talking Stick Resort Arena Nachos
Foreigner's "Cold As Ice" should be playing in the background wherever they are sold.
Poll
Should the Talking Stick Resort Arena Nachos be inducted into the Phoenix Suns Ring of Dishonor?
David Stern
He deserves a nomination for suspending Amare Stoudemire and Boris Diaw on a technicality before Game 5 against San Antonio in the 2007 Western Conference semifinals if nothing else. I'm sure there may be other reasons but this is #1 to me.
Poll
Should David Stern be inducted into the Phoenix Suns Ring of Dishonor?
Although this is probably the final round of voting for inductees, there will be one final Ring of Dishonor article sometime tomorrow with the final results.
