For the Athlete Who Has Everything, a $1M Swimming Pool (We’re Lookin’ at You, Gilbert Arenas)

One of the snarky themes on this blog** is the joke that celebrities—professional athletes included—are \\\”just like us.\\\” *giggles* See? We can\\\’t even type that with a straight face.\\r\\n\\r\\nLast week we used Jessica Simpson to illustrate that point. Today, Gilbert Arenas has the honors. Somehow, this Washington Wizard conjured up a staggering $111M contract (yes, that\\\’s 3 ones in a row). What to do with all that cash once the basic necessities of food, clothing, and shelter are addressed?\\r\\n\\r\\nWell come on now, isn\\\’t it obvious? You grab a mil and put it towards a swimming pool.\\r\\n\\r\\nWe hope, for that price, it at least comes with a pool boy who carries umbrella-drinks to Arenas\\\’ wife, Laura Grovan.\\r\\n\\r\\n\\r\\n\\r\\nGilbert Arenas, possibly saying to someone, \\\”Why? What\\\’s wrong with getting a million dollar swimming pool?\\\”\\r\\n\\r\\nImage: Used with permission of www.newscom.com\\r\\n\\r\\n** In case you\\\’re taking notes, and there\\\’s no reason you shouldn\\\’t be, other snarky themes on this blog include but are not limited to rants, bench-clearing brawls, catfights, people wearing stupid things, people doing stupid things, and people saying stupid things.
