The apology is gay.

Why not a velcro patch with a picture of a loaf of bread on it, for the loafers. Why waste money on complete new jerseys.

[MichaelNewton]

Does lavender represent the LGBT community? If so, maybe the Meyer should make the lazy players wear rainbows instead.

[brownsfan]

The sissification of American continues on at an amazing pace!

I wish there was a way to make it stop.

[Bubbette]

So what color is an “approved” color. You know it’s a gotcha game. Someone will always be offended.

[max americana]

The fudgers already took the equal’ sign, turned it into sticker and nobody asked us.

[Repeat Offender]

It is a damn good thing the krauts and japs never figured out how to make explosives out of political correctness.

I think the LGBT community should apologize to me. I do not care to see them doing passionate kissy mouth and groping. I really do not care to see anyone doing it. There is a time and a place and public display is not it.
Yes, I am an old lady but I was young once and I kept some things private and did not cheapen it as public.

Now I hope I have not offended anyone!

What a wimp

[dfwgator]

Ironic, since Meyer “loafed” his last year as Florida head coach.

“So what color is an “approved” color.”

I’m guessing red, white and blue would have had the militant freaks’ approval.

The teams at the Univesity of Hawaii are called the Rainbows.

I’ve been waiting for liberals to condemn that nickname, the way they condemn American Indian nicknames. Certainly it’s bigoted to name a team the Rainbows, when the homosexual community has adopted the rainbow flag as their symbol.

The teams at the Univesity of Hawaii are called the Rainbows.

They were, then they became the "Rainbow Warriors", now I think they just go by "Warriors."

[meyer]

For the record, I am NOT Urban Meyer.

[Pinkbell]

Lavender jerseys as punishment? The horror!!! Oh, thank goodness he apologized.

[VaRepublican]

Apparently so, my daughter's graduation literature specifically addresses a lavender ceremony for lbgt or whatever their acronym is.

[rwilson99]

Welcome to the Big Ten coach.

[Lakeshark]

I gather the loafing was done with a pretty grad student; no wonder his "health faded" and he quit to be near family........

Great coach, but he lies a lot.

[albionin]

My biggest pet peeve is the use of the word “community”. It is nothing more than tribalism and I think it is a result of all the balkanizing effects of special treatment for interest groups by legislators. The people who ride motorcycles without helmets community, the doesn’t like the color purple community, the lesbian trapped in a gay man’s body community and etc.

[Dilbert San Diego]

But if they go by the name “Warriors”, won’t that get them in trouble with the liberals upset about Indian themed nicknames?????
