Anyone watch Sportscenter and see what Josh Howard said about the National Anthem?

 

I would post the video but it's not award with what he is saying. Go search Youtube under Josh Howard National Anthem.

 

The event is at Allen Iverson's flag football party I think and Howard says something along the lines of, "I dont have to listen to this because I'm African American." Those aren't his exact word. Because I can't post what he really said. :mad::irked:

 

Here's the espn link to the story.

"I don't celebrate this (comment). I'm black." were his exact words.

He also makes some reference about Barack Obama which I can't hear clearly.

Yeah I was trying to figure that out too.

Unfortunately there is nothing you can do to him, but this is very very sad. It's hard to just get rid of somebody with his talent level, but I would love to see him lose his job, and no one pick him up. It makes me sick to think that people (especially that live the life that he does) have no respect the men and women that died for idiots like him to play a game and make millions doing it. I wish the worst for him.

Just plain ignorance. Stupidity at its finest, doesn't even understand history what so ever.

Dumb and disrespectful. :irked:

Amen! That's the one thing I've never understood. If people hate America so much, why don't they do us all a favor and leave?

If it's Africa he claims, I'll be the first to chip in on his one way ticket.

I bet AI doesn't invite him back next year!

Hopefully he goes to Europe and plays.

He needs to. Hes got a history of saying stupid stuff.

So should we be checking eBay periodically for his gold medal?

Can't do anything to him because of his freedom of speech, but he doesn't have my respect anymore.
