Name me a conservative sports writer or sports radio host. Another place dominated by liberals.
Jerry Callahan, Boston Herald and morning host on WEEI. I love listening to him. He sends alot of Boston listeners into a tizzy. :)
agreed!
That's got to be the most bizarre post of the day.
If more people would speak out against homos, the better off we'd be.
Gay?
Great Post.
If gays think it`s OK for a gay man to be in the same locker room with straight men, then I suppose they would have no problem with a straight man sharing locker rooms with women, but you know what? Ain`t gonna happen in a million years.
It's not biggotry!
"Hey girls, did you hear? Gays have no problem with gay men in the lockers rooms of straight men. So do you know what this means? Straight men can now share locker rooms with women! YEAH! Alright! I hope all the men we share with are Freepers, especially that hot stud Screamname! Woo hoo!"
I don't hate gay people.I think of them as "freaks" some of which could not realy be.
Yeh, I support the troops, too; but, what the H are they doing in Iraq? :( (A democrat's favorite refrain)
Go, Timbo, I'm with you all the way!
To update my comments...I think of "gay" people as "queer". I really had a different meaning for "gay" but am afraid to use the word any more for being misunderstood. I don't hate "queers" either....I just think they are queer.
Wasn't he in "Tradng Places"?
Just for once I would like to see someone stand by their words and not apologize.
Didn't a former Redskin player also come out. An end that played for them?? I forget his name.
ESPN spent all morning on this and aired LeBatard's interview no less than 5 times in the 30 minutes it took me to get to work this morning.
Congratulations to Amaechi for stirring up this non-controversy so he can sell his book which is published by OH look at that, ESPN.
If Amaechi wanted to be a trailblazer and actually do something that would make a difference for people like him in the future he should have come out while he was still playing. Why is everyone acting like he's a hero for coming out at this point in time?
As for Hardaway, he's an idiot plain and simple. He fed the media a big red bloody piece of meat and all the ESPN piranhas will attack it until there's nothing left. Never mind that it was just a guy speaking candidly and giving an interviewer something other than the canned, robotic responses we are accustomed to in this day & age. He told us how he really feels and now he's gonna get blasted for it.
I'm surprised it took ESPN this long to find someone to make comments like this. They must have been looking pretty hard for someone to bring this non-controversy back in to the limelight to sell their book.
When was the last time anything Tim Hardaway said was relevant to anything? He retired from the NBA 4 years ago and apparently is the current co-owner of a carwash and former player/coach of the ABA Florida Pit Bulls which folded after the 2006 season.
Yet he makes some comments and all the sudden it's a big national controversy? Come on ESPN...check yourself.
