Kyrie Irving is an idiot. Not because he doesn’t want to play with LeBron anymore. It’s because he believes the Earth is flat.

At first, it was funny. The guy who went to Duke for a year, one of the nation’s most prestigious universities, does not believe the Earth is round. The jokes wrote themselves. Now, it’s no longer funny.

Kyrie’s false beliefs have crept into the minds of the kids that revere him. Middle school teacher Nick Gurol told NPR that no matter what he does, he can’t convince his students the Earth is round, thanks to Kyrie.
