		<description>By the way, in the interest of truth and political correctness, I have nothing people who are &quot;crusty and old,&quot; nor do I have anything against &quot;Eastern European lesbians.&quot;  It&#039;s the combination that doesn&#039;t work so well.</description>

		<description>At least Gilbert kept his shirt on and hasn&#039;t been assailed by any crusty old Eastern European lesbians for chic ghetto pics.  Can&#039;t say the same for &quot;The Pimps of December 30th&quot; (LeBron and Tiger).</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve also tweeted very publicly that I want to secure an interview with Arenas along the lines of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://thestartingfive.wordpress.com/2007/12/19/interview-with-sacramento-kings-forward-ron-artest-i-keep-it-100/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;one I did with Artest&lt;/a&gt; so a fact line is established. He&#039;s here Tuesday.</description>

		<description>....&quot;Regardless of the details, though, Arenas could be in a world of trouble -- with the District and Federal governments, with the league and with the Wizards -- with the possibility, remote for now but still there, that the team could ultimately seek to void the remainder of his $111 million contract, signed in 2008.

NBA vice president of basketball communications Tim Frank released a statement Friday afternoon, reading: &quot;There is an active investigation by D.C. law enforcement authorities, which we are monitoring closely. We are not taking any independent action at this time.....&quot;



I am a Georgia Tech fan, and I hate to hear the Jarvaris Crittenton is involved in this. 

The mainstream media has shown us time and time again by &#039;tabloiding&#039; certain black athletes and we shall see if this Arenas story will blow up and be the first &#039;scandal&#039; of 2010.

Will Arenas be used as a guinea pig to void NBA contracts? ESPN is probably debating with their news and legal staff whether to pump this story up on all their platforms and will it generate a lot of internet hits and chatter among sports-talk radio listeners. 

Barry Bonds, Michael Vick, OJ, were iconic figures who ESPN trashed left and right. However, there had been existing contempt for these guys prior to their legal problems.

Arenas is not iconic and outside of Atlanta and Washington, nobody has even heard of Critt. With Arenas he is seen more as a class clown with a big ego. However, that Plaxico Burress was seen as making a stupid mistake when a gun accidentally discharged and an opportunistic legal system led by Michael Bloomberg trumpeted that Burress should be put up as an example.

...&quot;These are the stories that tend to get out of hand and I’m honored to say that David Aldridge, Mike Lee and Mike Jones have all done a great job reporting this as accurately as possible. Mark Stein on the other hand was digging deep into the demographic by actually including a preposterous reference to the 2004 incident in Detroit...&quot;

This story hasn&#039;t gotten out of hand (YET), but if Arenas or his lawyer have some friends in the D.C. legal community, they need to find a way squash this legal situation in a similar manner that Tiger Woods was able to escape his potential legal bombshell in regard to the Florida Highway Patrol trying to open a case involving domestic violence allegations.

Aldridge and others have reported accurately, but Arenas is his own worst enemy and he is still &#039;tweeting&#039; and admitted...

....&quot; yes i take blame for puttin them in my locker and i will hav to deal with that..bad judgment on my part....&quot;</description>
