Not because the Wizards are any good, but because it was in Washington last month that he drank so much, he couldn't play the next day. More »

Drag racing. Smokin' the reefer. And my favorite, disrespecting the National Anthem on YouTube. OK, who among is hasn't done all three? (I'm doing two of them right now). But for Howard, high-profile small forward for the Dallas Cubans, such transgressions are magnified twenty-fold. Think of the children! And so with training camp beginning this week I knew an apology was imminent, and Mr. Howard did not disappoint. He has decided to apologize for everything at once, and we present this impressive Uber Apology here: More »

When you're a billionaire and an NBA owner and the author of a popular blog, your inbox has to be chock full of every variety of crazy there is. And with this whole Josh Howard-National Anthem controversy currently raging, the level of nuts is evidently higher than ever in Blog Maverick land. Cuban recently shared some of the mail he's been getting regarding the Howard thing, and man, it's scary. More »

By the way, how is Allen Iverson's flag-football game not televised and how are all the players not mic'ed up? Couldn't this be a television gold mine? Anyway, Cuban made his anti-cellphone camera comments to the Dallas Morning-News. More »

Josh Howard 'Doesn't Celebrate That S***']]> Mark Cuban may want to huddle up with Josh Howard at some point and explain the implications of talking on camera in the YouTube generation. The scene is the Allen Iverson Celebrity Summer Classic flag football game this past July, featuring all of your favorite celebrities; DeAngelo Hall, Larry Johnson, Nate Burleson, Marques Hagans, Nelly, MoNique, and a host of others. Someone's shooting a homemade video during the National Anthem, and the Mavericks' Howard shows up at about the 1:43 mark and gives his views on the song, and politics in general. Video following the jump. From You Been Blinded:
"The Star Spangled Banner's going on right now and I don't celebrate that shit. I'm black."
Then Howard says something else about Barack Obama that I can't quite make out, and the camera mercifully pans away, leaving us to wonder, um, couldn't you have just said 'Hi, mom?' Video: Josh Howard Doesn't Celebrate The National Anthem [You Been Blinded] More »

As Henry Abbott put it, "We're not alarmed that one young person smoked pot. We're alarmed that anyone admitted it." Fitting, not even Howard's sponsors really care. More »

Reddick, smokes trees in the off-season. Also: baseball players take steroids and politicians cheat on their spouses. More »

We wish this were still true today; we'd have Buckner's boner, Webber's boner and, after last night, Howard's boner. Though, to be fair to the Mavericks' Josh Howard, his boner wasn't really his fault, as much as anybody's boner can be attributable to someone else, which we suppose happens quite often. But now we're stretching it. More »

In all his excitement and hurry, he appears to have pulled a Reggie Evans on Josh Howard. More »
