Jason Collins vs. the voice of locker-room ignorance
South Florida Sun-Sentinel ^ | April 29, 2013 | Dave Hyde

Posted on 04/30/2013 6:52:25 AM PDT by ConservativeStatement

Thank goodness for new Dolphins receiver Mike Wallace's quick fingers.

"All these beautiful women in the world and guys wanna mess with other guys SMH,'' Wallace tweeted Monday.

Thank goodness he explained in 140 quickly-erased characters why it took until 2013 for the first active gay athlete to announce himself in a team sport.

OH PLEASE!

As Howie Carr said yesterday, ‘This used to be the ‘Love that Dares not Mention its Name’. Now it won’t SHUT UP!”

After reading all the glowing kudos to this no-body homosexual yesterday, one can surmise that sports journalists are unduly fascinated by homosexuals in sports.

“...why it took until 2013 for the first active gay athlete to announce himself in a team sport.”

Here’s one: explain to me why I should give a rat’s *ss.

I think this guy is a fraud. he was washed up in Basketball and now has found a new way to make big bucks. I heard he has 2 illigitimate children. That’s not many for an NBA player, but it kind of contradicts his Gay claim.

Praise him... honor him... worship him... but he is still a ****-sucker and a sodomite. Those that support him are sharing in his sin. If GOD doesn’t mean anything to you... then be not offended. Your knowledge will come and perhaps too late for it to save your soul... but since leftists are GOD-less creatures of evil... as hildebeast says... “What does it matter”.

I am a HUGE sports fan, but this whole Collins affair has really turned me off. I’m beginning to re-think my sports “addiction”.

I made the comment on a site that I go on that I don’t care about Collins’ orientation, and was called a name by one poster, and saw that it was generally accepted and praised by just about every other poster on that site.

I love sports. Love to play them, love to watch them...but we are lifting these guys up to some level of worship. I don’t do that personally, but we as a society do that. It’s really turned me off.

You know, most of us, in fact, almost all of us, wish to keep our bedroom activities to ourselves. This bunch of homo saps relish in the exhibition of their deviant mores perhaps to gain some sort of approval. None coming from here. Keep your sexual identity to yourself and you will get no grief from me. Do otherwise, and expect public distain.

The only question a real sport’s fan cares about is can a player help his team get to the playoffs and/or go deep into the playoffs. Other than that I don’t give a rip what they do on their own time....

He was washed up...now he can claim he is being ostracized.

Oh for the love of God, why is it ignorant to state the obvious - “All these beautiful women in the world and guys wanna mess with other guys SMH.” There is nothing wrong with a MAN saying something like that — It’s natural, it’s obvious, it’s normal.

What collins does with other men...not so much, simply vile, filthy, disgusting, and deviant.

Breath mint Jason?

“now he can claim he was ostracized”...Yes, and that will mean more publicity, paid speaking engagements and interviews. He will be the new “Sandra Fluke”. I will bet he already has an Agent.

We all have different interests. I enjoy horse racing and the Kentucky Derby is a phenomenal event, a true American institution. That is this weekend; however, that event won't be touched in comparison to a fringe player admitting he likes other men's body parts. I understand the desire for some to discuss the gay athlete situation but anyone who questions it automatically is portrayed in a negative light. That isn't discussion, it is brainwashing.

With regard to the assertion that Jason “is just like Jackie Robinson”.

This would be true if Jackie Robinson had waited until he was a 36 year old free agent to tell the world he was Black.

I really, honestly, truly, and sincerely do not care one bit who he is sleeping with, who he is marrying, and who he is cheating on or with. I just want to see the athletes performing well as a team, and beating whatever East or West Coast club is in town this week. That’s all. Can we please just get back to the sports, and let the Gay Lobby crow about their fabulous sex lives in their own circles once again?
