Josh Howard shut up

Just because you go to college doesnt mean you utilize common sense. Josh Howard a NBA player for the Dallas Mavericks is once again in trouble because he is an idiot. Not only is he taking heat over his personal views, he has now identified himsleft as the spokesperson of the African-Americans with his comment at charity event:
"In a video posted on YouTube, Howard is shown on a football field at a
charity flag football game. As the national anthem plays in the background,
Howard approaches a camera and says: The Star Spangled Banner is going on right
now. I don't even celebrate that [expletive]. I'm black.""


This is the same guy living in the USA as one of the highest paid Americans, and all he can do is bitch about his upbringing. I understand that his outlook on life is alot different than many Americans. I don't think anyones view of anything exactly coincides with someone elses views. How dumb do you have to be to say something like that. He is constently in PR mode yet he doesnt learn, a description of himself on his website states:
"For most of his 27 years, Josh Howard has been battling -- against the awkwardness of youth, when he struggled on a basketball court; against naysayers who said he could never play college basketball; against the 28 people who passed over him in the 2003 NBA Draft."

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA get me some cheese with that wine. The same story, I'm going to prove everyone wrong who didnt believe in me. The statement he made shortly after the exit of the Mavericks in the playoffs along with this one leads me to believe he is his own worst enemy. Obviously someone belived he can play college basketball or he would be at one of the best schools in the nation and a NBA player. Its probably the same thing that I relized, he is a socially inept individual who really doesnt believe in the team concept so he constently undermines his own efforts as an athlete through his mouth. Shut the hell up Howard, at least if you want to continue making a good living like basketball. It isnt everyone else its you.

Finally what do you mean you dont celebrate what that flag means, you keep running your mouth like there is freedom of speech. Wait there is freedom of speech and it's in the Bill of rights.
