I won't lie to you. It's a slow news day. And because I think all of us have had just about as much Brett Favre and Manny Ramirez as we can take, I think we could use a breather.

So, how about (courtesy of DC Sports Bog) checking out Gilbert Arenas' ridiculous new pool?

Just some background here for you. Agent Zero's pool reportedly cost over $1 million to build. That's, uh, a lot of money for a pool. But then, he did just recently ink a $100+ million contract.

The pool will reportedly be one of the largest residential pools in all of America. I wouldn't doubt it judging by some of the pictures.



Yep, that's pretty large, but don't worry, there's more. See that mountain of stone to the left? Or wait, here's a better picture below.



Yes, contained within this mountain of stone - which apparently 500K was dropped on - lies a grotto with a hot tub. Seriously, I'm not kidding. See below.


There's also three fish tanks spread throughout the pool as well (cordoned off from the chlorinated water of course) that are viewable from parts of the house, including the basement.

And lastly, because something like this wouldn't be complete without a monument to the man who was brazen enough to purchase it, Zero has a mural of himself in front of the Capitol Building painted on a wall



Yes, that's a pitbull in the bottom left corner there. Mike Vick approves.

By the way, anyone else out there thinking that maybe, just maybe, we pay star athletes a little bit too much money? Yeah, me neither. I won't be happy until Agent Zero becomes a full fledged Bond villain who builds missile silos in his back yard. Just wait until he gets his next contract. I guarantee you that'll be exactly what happens.
