Stevenson's supposed to have surgery over the offseason to have his lips
stitched together.....

Arenas is an interesting guy, but there's a debate going on in these
parts as to whether the team as a whole is better or worse without him.
I personally think that, although Arenas is a really talented guy, the
team plays better without him. He marches to a different drummer, and
besides, when he's on the floor, the other guys seem to defer to him,
but Butler and Jameson are the real team leaders.

Until this dilemma is resolved (or until Arenas grows up or is traded),
I think the Wizards are doomed to be out in the first round of the
playoffs for the foreseeable future. Especially if they keep meeting
the Cavs in the first round! On the other hand, if they could somehow
manage to play the Celtics first, they might have a chance (I think they
were 3-0 against them in the regular season this year).

LOL... Good idea. They we're trying to get in his head. Didn't work.

I think they play better without him too. Some guys just aren't team
players, eh?

Yeah, but I think the regular season means diddly in the playoffs. Look how
Atlanta fared vs. Boston.

It's more complex than that, I think. Arenas is the superstar, but
Jameson and Butler are the older, wiser leaders, in principle. Part of
the problem is that neither one really asserts himself with Arenas,
maybe because they know he's the one that draws in the fans.

I'm hoping that now that Butler's been around here for a couple of
years, he'll grow a pair of cojones and assert himself. If so, that
will help things tremendously, because I don't think Arenas *wants* to
march to a different drummer, it's just that the drummers they have
aren't playing loud enough!

Anyway, I think they need to add one more really big guy to clog up the
middle too. If they can do both, they should do better next year.

One might speculate as to why you would be sitting down to dinner with
hillbillies...

Be that as it may, American folklore is replete with tales
of crafty rural folks having a laugh at the expense of some
hapless city slicker. And, truth be told, hillbillies often
make fine Americans. Just google Sgt. York, Audie
Murphy, Chesty Puller, etc. What - you've never heard
of any of them? How surprising....

"Dew" you think Hillary's education plan will start teaching
Americans about their heritage, or will she just pump 'em
full of global warming, feelgoodism, and disdain for anyone
who lives outside of a large city?

What'ch think?
