June 27-Washington, DC-A fan spotted Etan Thomas at a poetry slam Saturday on U Street and asked Etan Thomas how he felt about being traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves and he broke out into tears. Thomas said that he will miss DC, especially the poetry slams and his best friend for life Brendan Haywood. The fellow poetry slammer was taken aback by such a large man crying and went over to the corner to write out his feelings in haiku form while the slam continued on.
Thomas was traded to the Timberwolves earlier this week because he sucks and makes a lot of money. Thomas though did not see it that way, "I feel like the Wizards wanted a change in personnell, but I do not think that they really wanted me to be the change, I just happened to be who they got the best offer for," Thomas said. Wizards general manager Erine Grunfeld disagreed, "I am ecstatic, those morons took him and his crappy contract, drinks on me tonight" Grunfeld said.
His teammates seemed to have similar reactions to his departure. "Oh hell yeah," said fellow big man Brendan Haywood, undoubtedly joking because the two are in fact best friends. "Nice dude, I am tired of him and those damn glasses, its like he is trying to be all intellectual, I can't stand him," said G-Wiz the Wizards mascot that has nothing to do with Wizardry.
