Tim Hardaway Isn't a Fan of Cornrows or Football Players

Considering what Tim Hardaway has been through this year, I can't imagine he's the most qualified to give advice about how to improve your public image -- but here he is giving his unfiltered opinion about Allen Iverson's cornrows (mild NSFW language, but nothing worse than what you may hear on SportsCenter):


Because cornrows are apparently more controversial than, say, homophobia. Got it. If you listened all the way through, you also heard him explain the root of domestic violence, in an odd, stream of consciousness rambling way that manages to be offensive to women, referees, football players and David Stern -- if nothing else, he's efficient:

Sometimes you know, the league should, uh, the referees should calm down. You got to understand, this is an emotional game. Some officials just need to chill out ... The game is a game of emotions. If you can't show emotions, if you keep that s--t in, then you go home and whup up on your wife. It's that football s--t. You know, be all upset and s--t, go home to your wife and whup your wife. But you need to calm down. Referees need to calm down. But it's not the referees, it's the league that you got to tell them that.

To be honest, I don't have a clue when this interview was made, though I'd be a little shocked if it came after the whole John Amaechi affair. It's apparently from the "Off the Chedder DVD vol. 7" (if I didn't see the first six volumes, will I still understand this one?), which sounds like an underground (read: "low budget") hip hop mix videos that's available up at your nearest Best Buy car trunk on a street corner.
