Elton Brown was one of the most unpopular basketball players in Virginia history. His whole career was an example of uninspired, selfish, lazy play. Brown has a lot of talent, at least on the offensive end, but could never seem to lay off the Ding Dongs enough to get in good shape. He'd get his points and rebounds here and there, but if anyone ever pushed on him, he wilted like a plucked daisy. On top of that, if anything ever went wrong - like if a coach had the crazy notion of holding Brown accountable for not playing hard - he openly moped.

Yesterday, Brown was arrested in Charlottesville for pulling out a gun when he was about to get in a fight over a woman. I don't know how big the other guy is, but I think it's a pretty safe bet that at 6'9" and about 280 pounds (depending on whether this happened before or after lunch), Brown was much bigger than his opponent. But actually fighting would just be to much effort. Why not pull a gun instead?

And I love how a freaking behemoth like Brown felt the need to carry a gun around in Charlottesville. Have you ever been to C'ville? It's about as rough as silk panties.

According to arresting officer Sgt. Polynice, Brown was released on bond.
