Dumb black jocks. So what if Iverson couldn't spell "receipt" - and who is to say he couldn't? He's got millions and doubtlessly someone to spell it for him if need be. Relatively sure many Outsports readers will think this bit is funny; but you wouldn't if it were one of his homophobic shticks..... Humor reinforcing stereotypes. Dumb black jocks.

I've listened to Howard for 15 years. Artie has come a long way but is for gay marriage and doesn't understand a lot of the bs around gay issues in general. He also sits right next to George Takei when he makes his appearances (a week at a time a few times a year). Very funny idea about the spelling bee. I’ve listened to Howard for 15 years.
