Gilbert Arenas
Agent Zero, as I like to call him, did by far one of the stupidest things in the history of sports. Here's a link to what he did. As a basketball fan, Gilbert is among the best at scoring and cracking a joke or two. This was a joke that went too far. He claimed that he was trying to get his guns away from his kids. However he brought the guns to work (the arena) and D.C. gun laws say that you can't own a firearm. Mr. Arenas is probably gonna get jail time and his contract revoked. No NBA team would want to deal with the headache Gilbert causes and I think his career is effectively over.

Harry Reid, U.S. Senator
I have the utmost respect for Senate Majority leader Reid. I don't like how the Senate Health Care bill has shaped up (I think the House version is better because of the Public Option. I truly believe that true reform is with a single payer system). Despite that, Leader Reid made some questionable remarks about Candidate Barack Obama. I give him a pass because of all the things he's done as a member of the Senate. His choice of words could have been better, but I understood what he was trying to convey.

NFL Playoffs: Wild Card Round
I was watching most of the playoff games this weekend at my moms. The Jets/Bengals game was lackluster. Cincinnati hasn't been the same ever since Chris Henry died. I didn't expect them to show up, especially what happened to them the week before. The Jets shutout the Bengals last week and Saturday proved what I already knew, the Jets are scary hot.
Though they're not as hot as the Dallas Cowboys. After 13 years of losing playoff games, they've finally won a game. I'm happy for Jerry [Jones], Tony [Romo], and Wade [Phillips]. IF there's one team that scares me the most in a one game situation it's the Cowboys. Defensively, they are among the league leaders in defensive categories. The offense can hit a big play in a blink of an eye, and if Romo can be mistake free, they could represent the NFC in the Super Bowl.
The shocker of the weekend was the Ravens destroying the Patriots. I was on my PS3 checking to see if it was working right, more on that in a bit, and I saw the score was 14-0. I stopped what I was doing to watch the Ravens defense harass the Patriots in all three phases of football; Offense, Defense, and Special Teams. I think the Patriots dynasty is over, though I think they will at least win their division next season.
The best game of the weekend, even though I fell asleep during it, was the Cardinals/Packers. It had the makings of a blow out while I was watching it for 3 quarters. I headed back to my room to take a nap and the next thing I knew the score 51-45 in overtime. I saw the highlights and was just in awe with Aaron Rodgers. Green Bay made the right decision in getting rid of Brett Favre, because Mr. Rodgers can play.
This week is Ravens/Colts, Cardinals/Saints, Jets/Chargers, and Cowboys/Vikings. Before the games are played I'll give a keys to victory or a who I think will win.

PS3 News
In about two months time (give or take) Gran Turismo 5 will finally be released. This is another game that made me get a PS3 although it would be YEARS before it would eventually be released.
You probably seen on PSN I was playing a game called Peggle. It is addictive and totally worth the $10. You can also play it for free on your PC on popcapgames.com. The best way to describe Peggle is the game Plinko on the Price is Right. When you clear the board, you get to hear Ode to Joy and it gives you that sense of accomplishment.
My PS3 almost died on me last Saturday. It had overheated while I was playing Batman: Arkham Asylum. This was the same thing that happened to my O.G. PS3. The only thing I did different was NOT to play it when it got too hot. One of my PSN friends said I might have the Yellow Light of Death coming soon. I'm being extra cautious for the next couple of days until I know it's working right.
It's time for me to check out some Fight Night Live on Spike. So, I'll check in with my loyal readers next time.
