Dwight Howard certainly has star power, but to use a Hollywood phrase from the Dennis Miller lexicon, does he really have (bleep) you money? Maybe as NBA commish Stern handed out $35k fine to Howard for his comments about how much he perceives to be a foul target of officials.

Hope it was worth it.

Now that Howard gets disciplined for comments isn't that odd, really. Corporate America has adopted social media policies that restrict free speech and sometimes lead to not just fines, but termination.

What I find interesting is that I come across that story not on the sports wires, but listed under Internet news on Reuters.
