Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer sent an apology letter to a lesbian and gay advocacy group on campus for his plans to use lavender football jerseys as a form of punishment to players in practice according to 10TV.com and the OSU campus newspaper, The Lantern.

The lavender jersey would be given to a player caught "loafing" - or a moment of deceleration - for the second time during a conditioning drill. The concept was created by Ohio State strength and conditioning coach Mickey Marotti. The school will now use a different color.

This is interesting...

Prior to the year 2000, the University of Hawaiʻi's men's teams were all referred to as the Rainbow Warriors, complemented by an athletics logo featuring a rainbow. However, in a controversial marketing strategy over which many at the University and throughout Hawaii have misgivings [1], the school changed its athletics logo to a stylized "H" and allowed each team to pick its own team name.

This has led to the current situation, where the basketball, swimming and diving, and tennis teams have retained the team name of "Rainbow Warriors;" the baseball team adopted the name "Rainbows;" and the football, golf, and volleyball teams have adopted the name "Warriors."

What a man. Meyer is intimidated by sodomites. I will be pleased to read about his losses next year.

The people who don't like purple? If Meyer had to apologize to gays for the lavender reference, you will have to apologize to Northwestern grads. :-) (sarcasm).

Spurrier would never have apologized.

"For the record, I am NOT Urban Meyer."

Then, I guess, we have to assume that you're his brother ... Oscar?

[JohnG45]

For the record, I am NOT Urban Meyer.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[dfwgator]

I wonder what Percy Harvin must think about this, considering he plays for the Vikings.

[Toaster tank]

They own the color lavender? Who new?

This is weakness personified.

Meyer’s off to a limp wristed start.

My uncle was a loafer...........

How GAY. This story seems QUEER to me.

Gimme a break...homosexuality is truly a mental disorder. They need psychological help and since it’s now forbidden to treat them, they have where to turn except to last out at ghosts.

Big Ten Inch Record lyrics
Songwriters: Weismantel, Fred;

Got me the strangest woman
Believe it, this chick’s no cinch
I tried to get her goin’
I wanna whip out my big ten inch

Record of the band that plays the blues
Well, the band that plays the blues
She just loved my big ten inch
Record of her favorite blues

Last night I tried to tease her
I gave my love a little pinch
But she said, “Stop the bullshit
Won’t you whip out your big ten inch?”

Record of the band that plays the blues
Well, the band that plays the blues
She just loved my big ten inch
......
Record of her favorite blues

I’ll cover her with kisses
When we’re in a lovers clinch
It seems she gets all excited
When she puts on my big ten inch

Record of the band that plays the blues
Well, the band that plays the blues
She just loved my big ten inch
Record of her favorite blues

If my daddy could see me now

‘Cept for my big ten inch

Record of the band that plays the blues
Band that plays the blues
She just loved my big ten inch
Record of her favorite blues...............

Cultural Marxism is infantilism and to prove it we now have to get approval from this group or that to wear a certain color, especially if it conveys a ‘message.’

Madness.

He was so lazy, he got up early so he’d have more time to loaf around. (Stolen from a Harold Lloyd movie. Don’t remember which one.)

The gay agenda has such power and they use it to intimidate people and companies. I got my normal email from JC Penney & guess who there new, face of the ads is? Ellen DeGeneres's. I wrote them and told them they apparently have stopped targeting the family and are going after the gay community. I let them know I will no longer be shopping there. I will pay more if I have to and shop somewhere else.

The punishment colors should be maize and blue from that state up north.

[MichaelNewton]

Have you ever had a group of LGBT all wearing lavender come at you? Very scary indeed!

Coach Kill at U of MN uses brown Jerseys for players that miss class or workouts because they are on his sh!t list.

I thought it was becasue he “kneaded the dough” Abbott & Costello

Homosexuality is a mental disorder.

These people need psychological help and since it’s now forbidden to treat them and they have nowhere to turn for help, they lash out at their own personal ghosts who seem to their delusional, obsessive minds to be mocking them. The rest of us assume the role of the superego that’s bugging them. Narcissism reigns in how they conduct their lives and how they relate to those around them.

Are we all supposed to be checking our wardrobes and furniture fabrics and accessories to make sure that we’re in compliance with the gay-lesbian dictat du jour?
