"When the season's over, do you look forward to your first joint?"

I've always liked Josh Howard. He was underrated at Wake Forest and throughout his first few years in the league. He might be a bit overrated at this point and the Mavs could be on the verge of getting blown up in the off-season, but I digress. He's a pretty fun player overall and always seems to end up on my video game bball teams at some point.

He also just recently admitted that he enjoys that kush (presidential shit, George Bush) in the off-season, without shame. He's not the first guy to talk about the herbals in the NBA, Charles Oakley famously claimed that 60% of the league smokes. Howard doesn't put a number on it, but pretty much says the same thing.

Now, this story has been out for a few days now, but peep below for an interview Howard did today on the subject. Ironically, one of the hosts of the show is Michael Irvin. Yes, this guy and oh yeah, that guy too. Irvin doesn't really come off as a hypocrite (as he was good friends with that Lindsay Lohan during his playing days), but more so as genuinely confused as to why Howard would would straight up admit he smokes. He does projects his own fears onto Howard and asks him if he's worried about becoming an addict when his playing days are over. They also ask the foolish question of whether smoking in, let's say July '07, would be the reason that he's having a shitty series thus far against New Orleans...because of course it is.

Fun stuff and you should all enjoy Josh Howard more today. Listen below:
