  1. Gilbert Arenas talks about the Shaq trade, the Gasol trade and shaving.

  2. Oliver Willis on Mark Penn's political acrobatics.

  3. Ivan Carter has a funny story that explains how far rookies like Nick young have to go:


As for Nick, the biggest mistake he's made recently was touting his status as USC's second all-time leading scorer. (According to the Wiz media guide, Nick is the school's sixth all-time leading scorer so maybe I miss heard him or he was just messing with the boys. Either way, it made for a funny exchange.) He let that go before the game in Philly the other night in front of Arenas, Jamison and Butler. Big mistake.


Jamison: "Second all-time scorer? That would mean something if the top guy was Michael Jordan or something but USC? I mean, who is the leading scorer?"


Nick (already in trouble): "Harold Miner."


The reaction was fast and furious.


Arenas: laughter.


Jamison: "Harold Miner? What's he doing now?"


Butler, with a very straight face: "I can't believe those words just came out of your mouth. Let me give you some advice: don't ever say that (stuff) again."


As this was going on, I made eye contact with Young's ace, McGuire, who just shook his head and kept his mouth shut. "I just leaves those dudes alone," McGuire said. "You can't win."

I really have three rules for casting: she has to be at least 5'10", under 45 and attractive enough to pass for a princess. Sandrine Holt - Age: 36, Height: 5'10", Relevant Movie/TV Roles: Resident Evil: Apocalypse & Mutant X Pros : She's played both a (doomed) reporter and a person with superpowers, so if she can play both, she's a shoe-in. Plus she's probably the least-known actress on this list, so they can two movies out of her cheap. Cons : While D.C. isn't as star-crazy as Marvel when it co

Being the avid movie watcher that I am, I've noticed that more than one talented actress has been passed over for other talent. And by "talent," I mean, "sex tapes that 'accidentally' made it to the Internet." Well, here's one man's humble attempt to rectify the situation. The following ladies are not only talented, but beautiful. Hollywood: get off your ass and give these women more roles. DANIELLE FISHEL Noticeable TV/Movie Appearances: Boy Meets World; both National Lampoon's Dorm Dazes The delightful Ms. Fishel has the distinction of having the weirdest named ever associated with a smart-yet-hot character (or maybe I'm the only one who has a problem saying "Topanga!" whilst in the throes of passion) as well as participating in the death of the National Lampoon Series (I personally thought it died with Chevy Chase's career; who knew?). If you were to use her IMBD page as a reference, the only real fault people seem to hav
