A Sea Of Red

Just in case the trio of Fred Smoot, Chris Knoche and Steve Czaban weren't reliable enough sources on the fabulousness of Gilbert Arenas's million-dollar pool, which Czaban claimed will be one of the largest residential pools in America, I bring you alleged pics of said pool, courtesy of a regular Bog reader and diehard Wizards fan who recently visited the work site with one of the crews.

The reader provides some facts, which he gleaned from one of the contractors:

* The stone for the "mountain" cost nearly half a million dollars.

* There are three different fish tanks, one going in the "grotto," one in the front hall, and one in the basement. Their normal retail price would have been about another half-million.

* The tank in the basement will have a recess with a couch in it so Gil can "relax and look up at the fish."

* The work is scheduled to be finished in August.

No word on whether the pool is big enough to host a Fred Smoot-sponsored cruise, but it's gotta be pretty close.

Hes gotta have something to do when he gets hurt during the season

Unbelievable.

You can tack this onto the encounter thread since I know the woman in the Lifelock banner ad at the top of the story. Mrs. Sly & I used to work in our church nursery together with her and her sportscaster husband in Austin. But you'll notice she doesn't throw out her social.
