JOSH HOWARD DISRESPECTS THE NATIONAL ANTHEM



A YouTube video from a charity flag football game in July has Dallas Mavericks forward Josh Howard embroiled in controversy yet again. The video, from Allen Iverson's event, shows Howard, as the national anthem is being sung, saying: "'The Star-Spangled Banner' is going on. I don't celebrate this SHIT. I'm black." Howard also makes reference to promoting Barack Obama, which is a good thing! Hahaha! Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said, according to The Dallas Morning News, that the team dealt with Howard at the time of the incident. He added that the team has a plan in place to address the issue at training camp. "That said, we will be going through some advanced communication skill sessions together this training camp," Cuban said. "I have explained to him that cell phone cameras are not your friend and that what you think you said on camera is never what people will hear when it shows up on YouTube or TV."
