Cincinnati Reds announcer Thom Brennaman said a homophobic slur between innings during a game Wednesday night, leading to his removal from the broadcast for the remainder of the game.
Ahead of the seventh inning in the Cincinnati teams game against the Kansas City Royals, Brennaman was heard saying the slur.
During the second game of the team's doubleheader, Brennaman apologized for the slur on the air.
I made a comment earlier tonight, that I guess went out over the air, that I am deeply ashamed of. If I have hurt anyone out there, I cant tell you how much I say from the bottom of my heart that I am so very, very sorry, Brennaman said.
I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith, he said, before stopping to announce a home run in the game.
I cant begin to tell you how deeply sorry I am. That is not who I am and it never has been," he continued. "Id like to think maybe I could have some people that can back that up. I am very, very sorry, and I beg for your forgiveness, he said.

Must have called him a c***s***er!
No. Lefties in other big cities complain about KC (and the whole state of MO) being the most “homophobic,” “racist,” etc. The announcer might have been repeating a line from a movie.
“I’m smart! Not like people say...like stupid! But smart!”
And I want respect!! :)
What a sad, tragic figure.
When Micheal hugs him at the mothers funeral and then looks at Neri...my body went cold.
He was gonna kill his own brother.
I think I was 16 and watching it for the first time and my girl said “he’s gonna kill his brother”
i said “nah, that’s not possible”
The Godfather taught me first how cruel the world can be.
Just wow
The wrong people are ashamed here. These filthy sodomites engage in abominable behavior that is truly shameful.
He referred to an unnamed location as “the fag capital off the world”.
So what did he say?
She was right to do it. Your sister lives in Jersey? You would have had t go through a toll both. And we all know what happens in those.
...and the people in San Francisco felt slighted?

LOL
And i’m a much bigger target.
Easy to set me up at the 118 garden state exit.
I used to think that scene was silly because it depended on so much going the way they wanted...
But that exit 118, that’s the one I’d use.
Barely any cars get off at it. Block the front of the toll, lock me in...and it’s over!
And he knew my temper. It was a setup!
Thats a slur on KC, not on fags.
And gays say they are so oppressed in society? Please!
Do you ever listen to Mark Simone on WOR?
EVERY situation in life or history is analogous in some way to something in Godfather 1 or 2.
It was a homosexual slur, not a 'homophobic' slur.
For the same reason a racial slur is not a racist slur.
That's not a 'homophobic slur', it's just true.
Hopefully he doesnt have to take a knee for the queer leaders. I could have told you what he said as I have watched or listened to every Reds game since 1968 but I dont patronize MLB since they went full racist mode. Thom is a great broadcaster, as was his dad, Im sure the blm BS sickened him too. I wont miss him since I dont care a fig about MLB or the NFL anymore.
According to fake news homos account for 15% of the population, so they must be everywhere. Three sexes, male female and freak.
