We're So High on Josh Howard

Fri Apr 25, 2008 at 03:31:42 PM

There's very little to say about this lengthy clip from today's episode of The Michael Irvin Show on ESPN-FM 103.3, during which Dallas Mavericks forward Josh Howard addressed this article that appeared over the weekend. Because, really, it's no biggie. So, sure, the Mav went on the air and admitted to smokin' weed in the off-season. Whatevs. Right? That's what J-Ho says -- it's no biggie. "I do partake in smokin' weed in the off-season." But only the off-season -- no matter how stoned he sounds during radio interviews.

"Everybody knows in the media world and sports world that NBA players smoke marijuana," he said a short time ago. "It's true. [But] that has nothing to do with what I do far as basketball, ya know. When I go out there I go out there and perform." (Except during the playoffs.) Of course, folks will wonder why he's bringing it up now, with Mavs-Hornets Game 3 set to tip in a few hours? Because he's just being honest, bless him. --Robert Wilonsky

he should probably shut the fuck up until he figures out how to hit the broad side of a barn again.

Waterlewd says:

Hell, it ain't illegal to be high. Well, unless you're driving a motor vehicle or something. Me? I use a patsy to possess all my marijuana. He even works the bong for me. I don't trust my patsy, I mean come on, that guy is a fricking criminal!

Ricky says:

He probably went on the show just to meet up with Nate Newton.

And the way he's playing he'll be smoking sooner rather than later, if he only smokes in the offseason.

Josh Howard says:

"I keeps it real"

I ain't no rocket scientist, but ... isn't it against the law to to toke up? Even in the off-season?

What in the wide world of sports is a goin' on here?!

What's he possibly have to gain with his self-disclosure?

Is this some rope-a-dope (pardon the pun) to get the evildoers from New Orleans to underestimate him on the court?

I just don't get it, being a smoker, joker, or midnight toker, but certainly not being a sharer to boot!
