"As Arenas was being arrested, according to reports, he said, "You can't arrest me. I'm a basketball player. I play for the Washington Wizards, and I'm not going to leave my teammate."

I love this quote.

That's like telling a Boston Cop that you play for the Yankees.

Funny how massive infusions of cash can turn an ordinary idiot into an extraordinary one.

Well, it's nice to read such arrests did not include possession of drugs, a fight, or driving to endanger.
Slap on the wrists...

Their other teammate, Dennis Hastert, Speaker of the House, said

"You can't arrest me. I'm a Congress player. I play for the Washington Overlords, and I'm not going to leave my teammate.".........

...the officer arrested him and charged him with failure to obey a command.

Failure to obey a command? Sounds like something out of the Third Reich! Obstructing traffic, disorderly conduct, etc. I can see, but failure to obey a command???
