East Rombo: The Blog with Balls

Some friends leave you just when you need them. Some friends rub your faults in, making you feel worse than before. But some friends are just plain dicks that even if they're better off than you, they even TRICK you into losing your money.

I present the Superdick Friend of the Year: Gilbert Arenas.

Arenas pretended to be a novice at the video game until he and McCondichie agreed to bet their respective vehicles on it: a Cadillac Escalade vs. the Monte Carlo, straight-up.
"He beat me real bad," McCondichie says. "It wasn't even close."
Arenas had his newly secured possession shipped to the District and has been thoughtful enough to send photographs of it to his buddy this year. Or perhaps those photographs are the basketball equivalent of a taunt.
"Darnell has a year-long bus pass," Arenas says with a proud grin.
That is not really true, of course.
McCondichie used public transportation for a spell before purchasing a 2005 Yukon.
"He even offered to lend the Monte Carlo back to me to help me out," McCondichie says. "But I had too much pride for that. He is just being retarded."

I mean, wow, he earns millions per year and he tricks his friend into betting his friend's only car against his Cadillac. What a guy. Well maybe it's just something that he did once, you know, like a prank of some sort to spite his friend (just like someone I know *cough* Josh Smith *cough*) but there's more:

The two pals are planning a bowl-off this summer, with the Monte Carlo representing Arenas' ante. Arenas has agreed to a bowl-off knowing McCondichie is a considerably stronger bowler than him.
"I intimidate him in bowling," McCondichie says. "He is usually in the 160 range. I am in the 190-215 range. The Monte Carlo is coming back to Los Angeles."

You might think that Arenas may be planning to give back the car to his friend discreetly by losing in bowling but no. That's what you and McCondichie thinks.

Bowling? He has three custom balls, one featuring a boxing glove with Sugar Ray Leonard's signature on it. He'll bowl for three to four hours every day during the summer, usually in the 200s, and his high score is 277.

"He'd rather go bowling on a Friday night than go out to the club and party with his boys," Jamison said

GOOD LORD. I think he's planning to take all of his friend's money just to spite him. What a friend.
