The Washington Bullets

Gilbert Arenas and Javaris Crittenton gamble in the locker room:
Here is the story that Crittenton and Arenas plan to tell police on Monday, sources said: When the Wizards returned to practice, Arenas unlocked three unloaded guns out of a strong box in his locker and laid them on a locker-room chair and instructed Crittenton to choose one. The Washington Post reported Crittenton had playfully threatened to shoot Arenas in his knee on the plane, and that offering him a gun to deliver the deed was a way of trying to diffuse the tension.

Only Crittenton, feeling belittled and bullied, tossed one of the guns to the floor in anger and the tone between the two players escalated again. One NBA executive, briefed on the investigation, said Saturday, “The law is going to start trying to isolate them. Once the entire interrogation starts, you have to wonder if the stories will start changing.”

The New York Post reported in its Friday edition the two players drew weapons against each other. Sources say league attorneys discussed with NBA staff the possibility of Arenas brandishing a weapon in a threatening manner, but league officials hadn’t dug deep enough to be sure, and ultimately are waiting for the U.S. Attorney’s Office and D.C. police to conclude their investigation and make a decision on whether to bring charges.

Awesome.

On my vacation, I learned that my family is all Caps fans now. I wonder why.

P.S. I suggest a video to post with this. Any port in a storm, and such as.

"playfully threatened to shoot Arenas in his knee..."

Man, I miss those days when everyone around me was armed to the teeth and high, when the guns playfully came out over just about any old dumb shit, and I always had the punch line in the form a grenade in my backpack...

If those guns were really not loaded, I will eat Arenas's knee.

I had always held Eazy-E's "with a gat it don't matter if you're smarter or bigger" in high esteem, but I guess it needs a rethink.

"Feeling belittled and bullied" after he threatened to knee-cap his colleague? One obviously moves in different circles.

Yo, Misti, man called capcha here to see you!!!

Crittendon is obviously a whiny-ass reactionary if he feels he is being bullied & belittled.

Was it Eastern elitests[sic] looking down their noses at him?
