I love Gilbert Arenas as much as anybody else out there, but instead of showering him with praise and well-wishes as he recovers from his recent knee surgery, I’ve decided to talk about how much he sucks.
First off, let me explain the reason behind this article: Nacho Hibachi responds to critic...

Wizards at Magic, more Gilbert
Is tonight a playoff preview? I guess we'll find out after the Wizards get back from next week's brutal West Coast trip but we pretty much can count on the Orlando Magic staying in third-place. I arrived at the arena early (the hotel is right across the street) and saw Gilbert Arenas go th...
Manny Ramirez is Number 99...Why?
In Cleveland and Boston he wore Two Four but couldn't upon his arrival to LA (Hall of Fame Manager Walter Alston). So after a couple different back and forths with the Dodger Higher Ups they settled on 99. An odd choice for a ball player, especially one of his Caliber. Typically guys with a 99 on their chest don't have a name plate on the back, and it's not because of tradition but...
Agent 0
It's been a long strange journey for Gilbert Arenas. I would break his season down into 3 sections:1. He came out struggling a bit (minus the Wizards' home opener against the C's when he was on fire) and people wondered if he was focused.2. He caught fire with some game winners and scoring explosion...
Gilbert Likes The Hug/Handshake Move…A Lot
Derek Hanson of TWolves Blog was lucky enough to meet Gilbert Arenas at Friday Night’s Wizards-Heat game as a guest of Dan Occhiogrosso who won a contest by Spalding, whom Gilbert endorses. Included in his recap from the experience was this exchange which is classic Gilbert:

Attention ESPN: Gil Likes Will Leitch's Book
Filed under: Wizards, NBA Media Watch, Washington, DCMaybe this abbreviated review of Will Leitch's God Save the Fan -- a tome which is not exactly nice to ESPN -- will get Gilbert Arenas on the Worldwide Leader's blacklist. Thank you Will Leitch! Got to give a shout out to Will Leitch and Deadspin f...
24 seconds with Gilbert Arenas
The SacBee has a short interview with Gilbert Arenas about his blogging. Did you know, the NBA edits some of the things he says?
I did a steroids one, about, “How can you not think (Roger) Clemens is on steroids?” And, “He looks like an Escalade truck.” They took that out. The...
Antonio Daniels: Washington Wizards Player Evaluation
Antonio Daniels filled in admirably for an injured Gilbert Arenas in 2007-2008.
Does his leadership supersede his ability (or lack thereof) to provide an answer for team needs of the Washington Wizards?
Chauncey Billups: A Conflict of Interests
Everybody and anybody keeping track of the free agency pool this year has got to be already heads up with Chauncey Billups resigning with the Detroit Pistons. Now, it seems that Chauncey Billups will indeed be the face of the Pistons franchise of 2000; will he be one of the most beloved players the franchise has ever had, enough to have his jersey recognized and lifted up into the...
Wiz at Sonics (one last time?)
Here's hoping that this isn't my last NBA-related trip to this great city. I'm a big Seattle fan. All hands on deck for the Wizards tonight (except for Gilbert Arenas and Etan Thomas of course) while the SuperSonics will again be without former Maryland F Chris Wilcox (right pinkie fi...
Lastings Milledge Reps For 80?s Babies Everywhere
Lastings Milledge has molded himself into being the most colorful character in Washington sports most people haven?t heard of. He?s charismatic like Gilbert Arenas, without the prospect of overkill. He has the potential to be the Washington Nationals? version of Santana Moss, without the unbridled petulance in moments of failure.
And now, he?ll have number 85 [...]

Lets have an All Star Celebrity Tour de USA.

On Bonds, Branding, & Democracy
Gilbert Arenas isn't the only one who thinks the Ecko publicity stunt with the Bonds 756 ball is hateful and dangerous. But he does put it eloquently. Is an internet vote really how we should decide the legacies of human beings? Why do so many people have no problem with making Barry Bonds the whipping boy for so many others who have actually tested positive, or who have condoned...
Week 5: Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups
Antonio Daniels, Washington Wizards
Inexplicably, Daniels is still available in a lot of fantasy basketball leagues. If he's available in your league, pick him up. As long as Gilbert Arenas is out, he's going to put up very good fantasy numbers.
