Stan:
What would Brian Boitano do
If he was here right now,
He’d make a plan
And he’d follow through,
That’s what Brian Boitano’d do.
Kyle:
When Brian Boitano was in the Olympics,
Skating for the gold,
He did two salchows and a triple lutz
While wearing a blind fold.
Cartman:
When Brian Boitano was in the alps,
Fighting grizzly bears,
He used his magical fire breath,
And saved the maidens fair.
Stan and Kyle:
So what would Brian Boitano do
If he were here today?
I’m sure he’d kick an ass or two,
That’s what Brian Boitano’d do.
Brian Boitano & Brian Orser are both gay; however, both were skaters first and great skaters at that rather than prefacing everything they did with their sexual orientation. No comments were made about their sexual orientation during any of the commentary or analysis of their performances that I ever heard.
Rippon is a flamboyant, activist gay first, throwing it up in everyone’s face & everything is supposed to follow on for him because of his sexual orientation. His “gay struggle” is the excuse used by all defending Rippon for his lack of results on the ice. If Rippon were straight, he’d get very little attention, especially since his routines do not contain the more risky, technical content as performed by the other skaters who are outscoring him.
