NBA in no position to offer insight on Collins’ sexuality
New York Post ^ | May 3, 2013 | PHIL MUSHNICK

Let’s give David Stern the benefit of his clout. This week, when he and Commissioner-in-waiting Adam Silver, in a released statement, provided Jason Collins their support and approval as an “exemplary member of the NBA family,” they might have come at it through a different door.

They might have instead released the following:

“You’re kidding, right? How could we possibly have the audacity to pass judgment on Collins’ decision to reveal that he’s gay — to offer our official position and blessings on his lifestyle — when the league indulges, suffers and excuses just about every act in The Big Book of Bad?

Wow... and it needed to be said

Enough of this crapola already

The days are LONG GONE when a gay would have to worry about ‘coming out’

Now they not only want to ‘come out’ they want us all to praise them for it.

For get it- just play basketball and don't talk about your sex life.

I don't talk about MY sex life at work, who here does?

The only people I EVER heard talking about sex at a workplace is the queers who call each other “bitches” (guys) and talk about vulgar sex practices and rude jokes about anus's.

It's as if that is the ONLY topic of conversation they can manage, and it is if they are daring you to report them and expose yourself to the gay gestapo “sensitivity training” sessions.

I think he is a hell of a chess player. He just got thru with a 6 year hetero relationship with a gal, he is a 36 yr. old player obviously long in the tooth, he is a bench warmer who only played in 6 games last year and his scoring average is 1.1 points per game. Now this dude comes out of the closet and do you think he would get fired or traded by any team in the NBA? Heck, he just extended his contract as long as he needs a paycheck.

Liberals are brainwashing youths in early education and adults through Hollywood, gossip shows and the media. The untouched segment is the sports fan. What a wonderful opportunity to preach to mostly males about gays and women issues. It is only the beginning. Pregame news shows at the Super Bowls will discuss this issue and I wouldn't be shocked to see all-gay entertainment at halftimes of games.

The NBA is the sports league that has players that have multiple children by multiple women. That have players that are entitled to rape women and never see any jail time.

I guess the pooftee will have to take it lying down unless his poofter has a step ladder or tall stool.

First they need to focus on their pitiful officiating.

He isn’t currently on any team, is he? Also, his relationship with her was 9 years.

What if he gets caught with a woman, and it comes out he never really was gay, it was all a career ploy?

Methinks that Jason is playing every for a fool.

Watch how fast he lawyer's up once the Wizards let him go.

Have you seen his white girlfriend.

...and he'd rather have some dude's poop-chute?

Other than him saying it, how do we know he is...or anyone is, gay. He has an identical twin who is hetero and twins are clones. Proves gay-ness isn’t inherited, I’d say.

You know people don’t have enough to do when the biggest story in their lives right now is which gender person a low tier basketball player likes to boink when he’s not throwing a ball through a metal hoop for a living.
