High School Basketball Coach Tells Players He’s Gay, Gets Hugs
New York Magazine ^ | June 24,2013

Posted on 06/25/2013 3:24:55 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Your heartwarming story of the day: Anthony Nicodemo, the head coach for the Saunders High School basketball team in Yonkers, started to think about coming out of the closet after Jason Collins announced that he was gay in April. Last month, the 35-year-old went to an LGBT sports conference where he heard Collins speak firsthand. It was then that, despite his apprehensions about the reaction of his players and the risk of losing his position, Nicodemo resolved to finally come out. At a team meeting yesterday, he told a group of past and present players that he was gay. The players "literally embraced him," reports Outsports.

They also embraced him, less literally, on Twitter:

American media is now officially all-gay, all the time.

Nothing else exists except homosexuality. Nothing else matters.

The only thing we should ever think about is sex organs and what people do with them.

Anybody who dares think about anything else is a homophobe.

the risk of losing his position

Are we really supposed to believe that a New York public high school would demote or fire a unionized teacher for habits that are specifically protected in state law?

Give me a break.

I’m a male lesbian, wonder if they’ll let me coach their girls teams and hang out in the locker room?

NY why am I surprised and if a coach announces he;s normal and likes women would that be the heart warming story of the day too when he gets hugs off his kids in the south

Indeed.

Besides, what could possibly go wrong with a young male adult hanging around a bunch of young males in the shower.

Well, I’m not a homophobe for sure. Faggots don’t scare me yet disgust me.

Why does such a fact matter?

I can only assume that he’s a crappy or mediocre coach and therefore needs to mask that with the “coming out” nonsense and therefore now he’s cemented his position forever. They can’t fire him.

Otherwise why make it an issue at all. His sexual behavior is something that should have no effect on the basketball program unless he’s gay with underage players.

Either way, it doesn’t make much sense to make something so private into something so public.....except that’s what militant homosexuals do.

So after all these years, he chose to out himself in front of underage teenage boys. Hence my tagline.

Since when is confessing that you have an obsession with poking your private part into somebody else's sewage discharge pipe a cause for celebration?

If I thought swimming in sewage treatment ponds was fun, I think I'd keep it to myself.

I'll bet he got some hugs.Even before he openly revealed his perversion.And some of those hugs might have even been from individuals old enough to legally consent to sexual contact.

Yup. Fudgepackers always come out in events that consists of kids. Schools, gyms, churches. Those are the only chances of them raping and molesting kids.
