Have Another 40

posted by on November 9 at 10:06 AM

My managing editor has “recommended” that I stop posting so much about my hero Agent Zero. So, we agreed that I’d only post about Gilbert Arenas when he posted 40 points or more. (You’ll remember, Jillbert went for 44 against Boston on Sunday night. )

Well, I came home from work yesterday pretty stoned on life already—Democrats took the house, Rumsfeld out, Democrats take the Senate!!!!, Susan Owens beat Stephen Johnson with 60 percent—and then I tuned in the Washington Wizards game. Well, not only are the Wizards beating Indiana by 35 points, but Gilbert’s got 37 points … in the third quarter. Coach Eddie Jordan took Gilbert out with 10 minutes to go in the 4th after Jill landed another jumper to hit 40 on 14 of 20 from the field and 8 of 9 from the line.

Enough about Josh's man-crush! Lets see something about Iverson, the best small man in the history of the NBA.

SEME's got it right--if you posted about other NBA players (or even the Sonics!) you'd get more replies.

Speaking of the Soops. Props to the Stranger for their piece by Sherman Alexie. Made me think. Im not a big Soops fan and I admit I am one of the ones that says "FUck 'em" but it made me think how sad me and my son would be if the Mariners left town.

The piece on his dad was spot on, it reminded me of the small bond me and my mom shared with the Philies of the Greg Luzinski and Larry Bowa era.

The least Josh can do is a tribute to the Glove.

Seme: Iverson's good. Philly is my second favorite team.

BC: The Sonics?

Fuck em, Josh--more Gilbert. And feel free to address the return of Amare Stoudemire anytime.

And let it also be said that Gilbert scored those 40 points 32 minutes.

So what, Kobe scored 81 points, 7 rebounds, 13, 3 pointers in 40 minutes. and Iverson can pimp Arenas any time. the only players I would ever pay courtside seats to see:

the Doc ( god)
Jordan
Oscar Robertson
Bird
Iverson
Magic
