Poor
Gilbert Arenas, the onetime gun-totin’ All-Star guard for the Washington
Wizards. Retired—and I wonder why—at the
age of 33, Arenas has plenty of free time on his hands, so much so that he
needs to twitter on the great issues of the day, like uniforms for WNBA
players. I’d quote him, but we strive to
maintain certain standards here.
It’s
safe to say, however, that Arenas favors lingerie over baggy shorts as proper
court attire. This is just so
depressing. When Clare was a freshman in
high school, the local paper interviewed one of the senior players on the
upcoming season. The story ran with a
photo, which was pure softball cheesecake.
Have you ever seen a baseball player or, better yet, a 45-year old
16-inch softball player, pose with his elbows cradling the bat behind his
back? The chest is thrust forward but,
alas, never the beer belly.
Elena
Delle Donne of the Chicago Sky had a nice comeback to Arenas. “Women were not put on this earth just for
men to look at,” Delle Donne tweeted two days ago. “We are people. We have a purpose. We are role models. I am an athlete first and foremost.”
And
what exactly is Gilbert Arenas?
