Sports For Josh

I think I know why you love Gilbert Arenas after reading this profile in the Sunday Times Magazine. Gilbert sets himself apart from other sports freaks.
He says, to Chuck Klosterman:
“The freak part of me is not that I’m going to take 60 pills to get attention. I’m not that kind of freak. I just like to watch the Gummi Bears on TV.”
Not taking anything away from Gibert Arenas, but whenever I see the name Chuck Klosterman I shudder.
From the True Hoop blog he says:
"The fact that he -Arenas- cast 50,000 All-Star votes for himself is egocentric, but it somehow comes across as sincere: He cares as much about making the All-Star game as he did when he was 11."
I wish egocentric 'sincere' pop culture analyst Chuck would to shut up and let people speak for themselves. He's the Dennis Miller of journalism.
Clearly, a man who knows the value of a catchy theme song.
