By now, I’m sure everyone has heard of Josh Howard’s weed smoking ways. In addition to Howard making it public, the topic was further brought to the public during Michael Irvin’s radio show. Irvin did a great job insistently prodding Howard about the topic until it was almost painful to hear. I understand that it was the hot topic with Howard and the public wanted to hear about it, however, Michael Irvin, finally took it too far. At one point during the interview, Irvin compared Howard’s offseason marijuana use to his own cocaine problems during his playing days. Irvin commented that he had similar “problems” with drugs, insinuating that his cocaine use is comparable to Howard’s recreational marijuana use. He even went so far as to call Howard’s use an addiction. Firstly, there is no such thing as being addicted to marijuana. Grow up. Secondly, if he smokes marijuana only in the offseason, which he claims is the case, that doesn’t really add up to an addiction. Additionally, Howard never even failed an NBA drug test. Irvin needs to realize that doing a few lines off the urinal at halftime is in no way, shape or form similar to smoking a few blunts in the offseason. Have a great day.
