Agent Zero updated his blog today and explained why he hasn't spoken to reporters in more than a week. Check it out here.
It starts like this:
"When people are asking me, “How does it feel to be back?” I don’t consider myself back. It’s jinxy. That’s why I don’t talk to the media right now. They’re going to ask the same questions, “How does the knee feel? . . . How does it feel coming off the bench? . . . Are you opting out?
"You know what, there’s only so many times you can answer those same questions. I mean, can’t they just use the same quotes I said last week? There’s only so many times you can answer the same questions so I just said, “Forget it.”
So Gil says he's done talking to the media until next season. C'mon, Gil. It's not like you don't change your tune every single time you open your mouth. It's understandable that we ask for updates, isn't it? I know it gets tiring, but hey, comes with the territory. I find it interesting Agent Zero decided to stop talking right after he lied about his medical clearance.
In the blog, Gilbert also replies to this paper's very own Tom Knott, who in a recent column called Arenas out for poor defense. Maybe they can have a face-off or write-off. I hear Knott was a pretty good baller back in the day, maybe they can settle their differences with a game of horse.

Sounds as if you are being adversal with Gil as opposed to being a reporter - not cool

Adversarial? It's a blog, which is like a column. You can express your opinion in a blog.

Cool - so your opinion is that you do not like Gil because he "lied" to you. Gee Whiz, what a surprise that your opinions come through not just in your blog but your reporting when you called him a liar in your game stories. Word games are not fun and you are not that good at it.

Excuse me, but I don't see anything that I've said that's offensive. If a man says "I have not been cleared to play" and he has been cleared to play, that's a lie. That's fact. I don't dislike Gilbert at all. Never once said that. I think he's a nice guy. You never know what he's going to say, or when to take him seriously, but he's still a good person.

WOW. i am shocked to hear what you losers write about over there in Washington. Tom Knott should be fired. That loser should be sitting on a hill by himself writing childrens books. Even the Wizards players think he is a joke. Somebody over there and tell this guy to shut his mouth.
