Like President Barack Obama, pomegranates and math, Cavaliers star LeBron James(notes) is absolutely everywhere right now, promoting his new documentary "More Than A Game," as well as his new book "Shooting Stars," co-written by Buzz Bissinger. This morning, the PR blitz hit "The View" on which Barbara Walters asked LeBron why he didn't shake the Orlando Magic's hands after osing to them in the '09 playoffs — especially since he had just come out and shook hands with all the ladies. LeBron's response: "For one, the Orlando Magic is not as beautiful as you women are." Zing!? Just in case you need a little more LeBron in your life, the All-Star forward is set to visit "The Late Show with David Letterman" on Tuesday and "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on Friday. Oh, that, and he's currently rummaging through your refrigerator looking for some lemonade.

This is not how you want to start a weekend ... Cavaliers guard Delonte West(notes) was arrested Thursday night for weapons possession. Brian Windhorst of the Plain Dealer reports:

WUSA, a television station in Washington D.C., reported today that West was pulled over in Prince George's County, MD., at 10 p.m. Thursday night for making an unsafe lane change on his motorcycle. The police say West had two handguns and a shotgun in his possession and he was arrested. West was released on his own recognizance and is scheduled to appear in court on Nov. 20.

Yes, you read that correctly. Delonte was somehow concealing two handguns and a shotgun while riding a freakin' motorcycle. You can't even do that in "Grand Theft Auto," can you? This does not sound good. More info to come. UPDATE: According to Matt Zapotosky at The Washington Post, Delonte was driving a three-wheeled motorcycle (like the one pictured right, I guess) when he cut off the Prince George's County cop.

The officer pulled him over, and West told the officer that that he was carrying a handgun in his waistband. That prompted the officer to call for back up, and investigators found that West was actually carrying three guns — a Beretta 9mm in his waistband, a Ruger .357 strapped to his leg and a shotgun in a guitar case slung over his back, said Maj. Andy Ellis, a spokesman for the Prince George's County Police Department.

As of now, it is still unclear where West was going or why in the world he was armed.

If you missed the end of the Bills/Patriots game last night, you not only missed the conclusion of a thrilling football contest, but also a compelling little foot race between Tom Brady(notes) and Suzy Kolber.

Watch as the great Suzy goes stride for stride with a reluctant Brady, all in an effort to pry just one very non-newsworthy postgame quote out of him.

So what's the call here? Was Tom being a jerk, or was Suzy pestering him?

On one hand, I feel like if a guy doesn't want to talk, he shouldn't be made to talk. Not every football game is a fun football game, and everyone has those days at work where they just want to go home, be left alone and not say one damn word to anyone.

On the other hand, if you're Tom Brady, you're the face of the Patriots and of the NFL. That comes with certain responsibilities. Tom is rich and famous because of the attention given to him by television networks like ESPN. In return, it wouldn't kill him to cooperate when our heroine Suzy wants some meaningless little quote.

He was going to have to talk to the media at some point anyway, so why not stop and give the persistent lady 20 seconds of his precious Tom-time? If you're that attention-shy, Tom, you can always quit your job and go find work as a stock boy at a shoe store or something.

He tried ignoring her at first, and then, a couple of times, said to her, "I'm going in." Suzy persisted, though, and eventually crowbarred Tom's lips open. Most people would've probably given up.

I like Tom Brady, but I think I'm going to have to go with him being a jerk on this one. He knows Suzy, he knows her job, and he knows all he has to do is spit out some ridiculous cliché, and that would be the end of it. Why blow her off so publicly like that?
