The End of Friday Gilbert-Blogging?????

Sniff:

Arenas said Saturday that the knee injury he suffered in April and the recent birth of his second child has led him to view his financial future in a different light. "It's very important that I secure my future," Arenas said. "Next summer, I will be in a position to sign a contract that will give me 12 solid years in this league. When I came in as a second round pick [in 2001] that's something I never imagined."

What will Washington be like when the only superstitious, oxygen-hogging triangulators in town are the Clintons?

Deadspin puts it best:

[W]e can totally picture Gilbert having the following conversation with a convenience store clerk:

GILBERT: "Do these balloons blow up into funny shapes at all?"

CLERK: "Not unless you consider round funny."
