Who uses being arrested on federal charges as a moment for comic relief? Gilbert Arenas.

And whether it was ill-timed or timed on purpose, the public had something to talk about.

The former NBA All-Star was among six people arrested Wednesday and charged with running an illegal gambling business from an Encino, Calif., home that Arenas owns. He was charged with one count of conspiracy to operate an illegal gambling business, one count of operating an illegal gambling business and one count of making false statements to federal investigators. He pleaded not guilty and was released Wednesday on $50,000 bond.
