SportsFilter: The Wednesday Huddle:

A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.

Looked like Gilbert Arenas was well on his way to establishing a viable media presence with podcast, YT videos, etc., but has now been arrested on gambling charges.

These days, if you're gonna judge, you'd better have some stamina. Cause there's no shortage of opportunities.

If I was gonna judge Zero, I guess I would have started back with the live weapon in the locker room. I'm too old and tired to run the flag up now.

Tahoe probably has the best perspective on the confluence of gambling and sports. To me, it seems like at some point, all the money, wagering and athletic endeavor is just going to melt into one big cauldron where anything goes anytime, any league, conference, or division.
