This is so absolutely mind-blowingly wrong that there's nothing really to say other than former Kansas Jayhawk Aqib Talib is an even bigger idiot than we thought if he's going to take part in "Da First Eva Coon-o-Ween."
Talib, a member of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, has a history of making really bad choices. Attending this party would fall in the "poor judgment" category as opposed to the "criminal," like the incident in March in which he and his mother are accused of firing a gun at his sister's boyfriend.
The ad appeared in the Florida Sentinel and advertised Talib, misspelling his first name, and "other Bucs guests" as appearing this Sunday in Tampa.
However, the Bucs told Deadspin: "Aqib is not involved in the event." Given that the ad misspells his name, maybe (hopefully) that's true.
But given Talib's history, would anyone be surprised? This is a guy who's been accused of punching a cab driver and injuring a teammate with a swing of his helmet and getting into a fight with another rookie while attending a life-skills symposium. Clearly, Talib didn't learn anything that from rookie orientation.

Regardless of name, myself and my white honkey family would never want to miss performances and fellowship with such wholesome and fresh entertainers such as Lil Bruss and Tae Bae Bae!
Please don't you all be hating on some good music and testimony.
How can anyone cast stones at any event with a complimentary buffet?
Um, given their style of dress and facial expressions, I don't believe I'd be welcome at this Halloween party. Probably wouldn't care for the music, either.
having recently departed the central florida area this does not surprise me one bit...its actually quite amusing this is a big deal, you should see some of the things that go on down there.
Wow...does no one ever think FAKE first before believing something incredible on the net? Make a phone call to the Bucs first and then you'll find out its fake. stupid.
I know that we have some idiots in the world...really setting us back way far back. I see them all the time, are they this dumb, blind and stuck on stupid? Seriously this is a joke right? I keep trying not to feel a certain way about these fools but this is just ridiculous. Fools like this is the number 1 reason our race of people have to work extremely hard to come up in this society.
What's soo miraculous is that NO one is even mentioning the fact that there's "Other BUCS Guests" that will be there as well - Talib supports his heritage so what.... and Look in the South! these happen ALL THE TIME!!!
Midwest - sooo close minded! wow...
How is anybody shocked by this? The hiphop culture gets away with this shit daily. Walk into any gas station in the ghetto and you're guaranteed to find a similar poster or ad for some ghettotastic event which sets the black race back about 60 years.
Just think what would have happen had this been done by whites, here i been teaching my kids not to use that term and i now find out its ok to use it if your black i suppose the n word ok to if your black, it must be true what some folks been saying for years about blacks after all who would know better what they are called but a X black star.Dr king would be so proud .
Luckily 90% of ku fans didn't go to college so the shame this brings Talib and his University is lost on them.
Dude, there's a raccoon right up in the corner of the advertisement. This is clearly some sort of innocent raccoon-themed sock hop or something.
