Fawning, Sick Swoopes Interview / Blatant pro-Homo Informercial to Sell Unprofitable WNBA

CNN | 10-27-05 | Kyra Phillips

[The Old Hoosier]

PHILLIPS: Well, Sheryl Swoopes, you're beautiful, you're smart, so what if you're gay. You're an incredible athlete. You're a tremendous role model. I need to clean the vomit off my keyboard.

[peyton randolph]

Swoopes' story made the front page of the Dallas Morning News. What a sick joke. 1. We all know that the WNBA has tons of lesbo players and fans. 2. It might be something of interest in the WNBA section of the Sports Page but not the front page of the paper. 3. The MSM continues to promote a pro-homo agenda. Probably has much to do with the number of poofters who own (Sulzberger at NYTimes) or work for MSM.

[JillValentine]

Listen, Swoopes, if you're gay, we don't care.

The first time a public coming-out was done, it was lame, but at least it was creative at the time. Now, it's just old.

[goodnesswins]

THIS will HELP the WBNA?????

[weeder]

Notice how many times she uses the phrase "you know...". The only other person I've heard speak publicly, who uses the words "you know" so often, is Hillary Clinton. I wonder if it's a lesbian thing?

[stylin19a]

None...so why announce it to the world ?

bye-bye troll

[Charles Henrickson]

Enjoy your 15 minutes on FR.

[bahblahbah]

Without lesbians nobody would care about the WNBA.

[little jeremiah]

If you (and she, and innumerable others) kept it to your/her/his selves, no one would know, and therefore no one would care.

Sounds good to me.

Unfortunately, those promoting the "gay" agenda do everything except keep it to themselves. As in the interview above.

[little jeremiah]

Homosexual Fawing Agenda Ping.

Read it if you can stand it.

In the groove of "homosexuals are nature's noblemen".

Freepmail me and DirtyHarryY2K if you want on/off this pinglist.

The fact that the WNBA's premier player just outed herself as a lesbian will do little to create more fans and attract more viewers, particularly heterosexual men. In fact I'm hopeful it'll drive one more nail in the league's coffin since it is one of the most boring team sports in existence.

[RayChuang88]

This is a case of who cares.

The reason is simple: Swoopes coming out of the closet doesn't generate anywhere near the controversy that an active male player will if he comes out of the closet. Can you imagine the incredible firestorm of controversy that player will generate if he declares he's gay? He'll end up being shunned by his fellow team members, the team's fans, and could lose any advertising endorsement deal very quickly. Note that even Nike--who is probably one of the more pro-gay/lesbian companies out there--will likely NOT come to the defenese of a prominent male athlete that declares he's gay due to potentially huge loss in sales.

KYRA PHILLIPS: And now she's mixing it up off the court as well with the decision to come out about her sexuality. Sheryl Swoopes joins me live from Houston to talk about why she decided to take this step and what she thinks it means for her career. Sheryl, great to see.

SHERYL SWOOPES, WNBA PLAYER: Thank you. Thanks for having me.

Freudian slip?

[cherry]

I have been to several WNBA games a few years ago, and there are plenty of family people there but you're right.....a good dose of lesbians too....

the fact that the WNBA actually PUSHES lesbianism at you is galling.....

this is sad because there are legitamate good players, both hetero and homosexual that playwomen's sports, and most of them would rather have their personal lives be their personal business......

Who was it (?), P.J. O'Rourke that said "homosexuality was the love that dare not speak its name. Now it's the love that won't shut up."

[sure_fine]

afraid the typed word on message boards are not getting the rejection message out anymore

[GodBlessRonaldReagan]

What?!?! A member of the WNBA gay? Next you'll be telling me that there are lesbians in the LPGA!

[goldstategop]

Debbie Schlussel has written about the gays in closet WNBA many times. They're the affirmative version of the boys and can't play half-decent basketball. The only reason its still around is because its subsidized by men's pro basketball and its a politically correct sop to the feminazis. On its own in the free market - it would have folded a long time ago. Women don't like lesbians and there are few guys who dream of dating a 7 foot tall Amazon wannabe. As Debbie says jokingly, its a Waste Of National Broadcasting Airtime. Normal people don't want to go and watch a game that is no game and that is a pathetic version of real basketball - the men's game. Now y'all know why the guys are superstars and the gals are unknown - the guys got the skills, women want to date them and men want to be like then.
