Do you think the NBA would ever start a policy similar to the NFL?
This guy needs to get his act together.

Yeah, Christ. Smoking weed and racing cars. What a loser.
I'm guessing you were never an irresponsible 20-something?

He's 28 years old. He's not that young anymore. Stop trying to defend him.

He might not be a loser, but he's definitely irresponsible, remarkably boneheaded decisions in 2008 for Mr. Josh Howard...it's a shame...

No, he's trying to kill off his trade value so he doesn't have to leave Dallas.

I've always hated Howard, but I'm starting to feel bad for him..you can see his career melting down..struggled for most of the 2nd half of the year/playoffs..the weed incident(which isn't bad IMO, but I'm speaking from a public standpoint here) and now racing cars..

Well apparently he's in Toronto this weekend and will be hosting a jam at some nightclub tonight. Let's hope he doesn't partake in anything that will get him in some more trouble with the law, lol.

Josh has slowly but steadily changed his image with some significance in the last couple years... he's got some mix to him now for sure.
He best just keep it cool now. Stupid thing to do... just go to a drag strip.

And Youre not even a gifted athlete but you still probably have enough sense to not partake in such reckless activities. Smoking some weed I can overlook but trying to be some Fast 2 Furious wannabe is just idiotic.
I'm so sick of people giving others excuses by saying other people are just as irresponsible. Aren't people supposed strive to become more mature adults rather than emulating their immature counterparts? Its actually kind of sad that people have such low expectations of others and are surprised if they don't act like retards.
