[luv]

Seems to be newsworthy on ESPN.

Couldn't find the full youtube video that's shown in this article in order to post it.

"The Star-Spangled Banner's going on right now and I don't even celebrate that s--t. I'm black, goddamnit."

Way to represent Wake Forest.

:cuss:

At least we have Chris Paul and Tim Duncan out there too...

I think he was just trying to be a smartass. I don't know his history, though. I assume it must not be a first for him if ESPN is even taking the time to report it.

[Demonpenz]

we've been through this with muslim players, jehovah witnesses, and this guy just seems to be a dumbass. I don't know if it is worth calling out the "GOO AMERICAN WE RULE/ balls on trucks..." type of people. It's not basketball season and this story isn't that sexy.

In the last year, he's been quoted saying he likes to smoke dope in the offseason and accused of drag racing (over 90 mph--and not on the interstate, either).

That being said, he probably was trying to be funny. If he ever wants another endorsement, I'd suggest the following: STFU

[Deberg_1990]

Hes probably just messin around...

But some of these dudes dont understand how disrespectful it is.

[Chief_in_Commander]

Failing to see the connection between not showing the respect to our country's song and being black.

:shake:

I bet he has no idea how good America has actually been to him. He has a bad sense of humor.

I don't see why I should show respect for a country's song. :shrug:

Very true. Another multi millionare who has no idea how good he has it and no respect for America and its traditions and customs.

They were actually interviewing people about it earlier, and there's even a poll on ESPN.com asking people what they think should be done about it.

Be done about it? You cant correct stupidity.

So he's black.

He's also a millionaire.

This country must not be treating him too badly.
