Gilbert Arenas’ New Tattoo

Without his day job occupying the vast majority of his time, Gilbert Arenas paid a visit to his tattoo parlor in the last couple of days to celebrate the election of Barack Obama. On the fingers of his left hand, he got “Change We Believe In,” and “44″ on the outside of his pinky.

Remember a couple of weeks ago when Gil said that he wasn’t going to vote at all? He gave some legit reasons why. But it turns out that he found some reasons to cast a vote for the President-elect.

Arenas said on Saturday that his previous comments about not voting because he was afraid of having higher taxes were “a joke that nobody got.” He added that he always planned on voting for Obama but was waiting to find the right reasons.

“I wasn’t going to sit there and wing it for no reason,” Arenas said, “Like oh yeah, he’s black so I’m voting [for him]. I could’ve said I was voting for [John] McCain because he’s from Arizona and went to all the games.”

    Dude should really stop talking.

  3. rangerjohn says:

    i agree youngfed, he needs to keep quiet.

    i mean damn “im not voting but i damn sure will celebrate if the black guy wins”

    he talks shit to get noticed, he has severe “needyness” issues. has to be the center of attention, i guess daddy or mommy (or both) didnt pay enough attention?

  4. jackass says:

    kid knows how to work the media, he knows that he will be forgotten soon if he doesn’t gather attention. it’s all about the money homies. and he is doing whatever it takes.

    Richard Jefferson wore #44 at Arizona , it’s always some gay thing between those dudes .

  6. max says:

  7. YOUNGFED says:

    ranger try doing a little background research before making ignorant comments about a subject you clearly know nothing about

  9. Mark says:

    Gilbert’s a pretty smart guy, but he’s equally ignorant.

    And irrelevant, for that matter. What’s he got, like a month before he comes back? Looks like that self-inflicted pay-cut’s coming in handy for Pollin.

    Ahh, you guys are haters. An NBA guy shows a little personality and you get your panties all in a bunch. But it’s funny how you all felt the need to click the “Read More” link.

  11. BxBaller says:

    If this was LeBron, you guys would be al on his jock on how smart he his.

  12. weezy f says:

    what a dumb ass tattoo to get

  13. Mark says:

    I doubt we’d al [sic] be raving over LeBron, BxBaller. Gil’s antics are al [sic] about self-advertisement. LeBron’s antics are al [sic] about corporate promotion. They’re both just looking out for number one which is justifiable, but not necessarily accepted.

    Don’t think this hasn’t been established.

  14. QQ says:

    Wow. What an ass.

  15. jonny taise says:

    it’s funny that he was sounding pretty ‘on the fence’ about voting and then he ends up getting tattooed??!!! and on his hands of all places!!!
    he sounds like a high school kid who gets a marijuana tattoo one week after starting to smoke.
    his body though, not mine!

  16. that dude says:

    Come On Gil get it together bruh!
