Dwight Howard Fined For Ref-Bashing Blog Post

Last week, Dwight Howard sat down after a particularly frustrating game and typed up a blog post. Like I will soon do to this post, he pressed “publish.” Then, my friends, there was no going back. Howard had criticized the NBA’s refs for basic inequality-in-fouling stuff; it was the sort of thing NBA players are conditioned not to say in postgame interviews but not exactly the kind of thing one would consciously keep off his blog.

↵Next time, Dwight might want to count to 10 before he hits send; Howard was fined $15,000 by the NBA for the post, making it the most expensive blog post since Perez Hilton was last (probably) paid hundreds of thousands to blog about the music he pretends to like. Woohoo, Internet!
