Some Motivation in Dark Times?
Yeah, the Wizards are winless. But maybe this is a rare occasion where the political world can help motivate the sports world:
In other words: anything can happen in 2012; there's no guarantee of a second term for Obama. So Arenas has four seasons (yes, counting this one) to meet #44 while he's still in the White House.
If that's enough to motivate him, fine with me. Of course, just about every black athlete has been motivated by the election.
Arenas once dubbed himself, "Black President," but said he had no problem conceding the title with a real black president now heading to Washington. He said he even plans on getting a Wizards jersey that reads "Obama 44" and will ask him to sign it if and when Obama decides to attend a game at Verizon Center. Arenas said there is even more reason to win a championship, "because if you win the championship, you go to the White House."
