NO MORE BULLETS


For those non-sportsniks out there a bit of an explanation here. My "favorite" basketball team is the Washington Wizards. They are having a lousy season but now their star player, Gilbert Arenas, is in big trouble for bringing three guns into the locker room. On a team flight back to DC from Phoenix Arenas and another player got into an argument over a gambling debt and the next day Arenas pulled out the guns in the locker room and "something happened" ....

The case is now under investigation and Arenas likely faces huge fines and suspension. The team is in upheaval. And now David Letterman has picked up on it.

Years ago the team was called the Bullets but the owner changed the name because he wanted to reject the gun violence in Washington and the world. He recently passed away and must be turning over in his grave.
