Thanks LULU!!!

If they can play the sport...then I don't care...let'em play.

you're most welcome!

we need more open mindedness!! I mean who gives a sheet. Just don't grab my ass! You know??

Fans do care, and most male ice skaters are gay


Pepper, you need to learn how to stop including me and others in your generalized comments about who does or ndoesn ot do whatever. In this case, I am a fan of several sports and I dont give a rats hairy ass if someone is gay, straight or even if they sleep with sheep. When I watch it is to se the game played and nothing else.
So PLEASE stop saying things like most, and all, or the majority brecause then you include me, and I do NOT appreciate that.

Thank you.

what he said

why is this still a topic? people dont even talk about sports here anymore... its 2007 for pete sake. wtf! grow up! if u have a probelm with someone else being gay ask urself why? r u afraid? why? do u feel its ur job to police to be the gay police? why? why is ok for actors to be gay btu not a ballplayer? do u justs have a probelm with men being gay? WHY? why is being gay such a hott topic? i played sports my whole life, it never once cross my mind if someone was gay or not! now im not goin to lie to u because in my younger days, i wouldve been antigay. why u ask? because i was scared i would get lump in them. Tim hardaway is the basketball player who said he hated gay people, he play for the "MIAMI" heat years agos, yet he stills lives in miami? He must be blind!or justs dumb! or both! Its not any human beings job to judge how another lives out his or her life, unless u feel u can do a better job than g-d? Can u?

there's nothing wrong with having an open discussion

well, this is a topic and people can give their opinion if they choose, so stop going to pieces, when someone have a different opinion then you.

yeah, i agree but, This isnt a open discussion if the people who are being discussed arent represented. no, amount of talking is goin to change someone mind, only personal growth can do that. like i said before once we get over the fear of gay people then change will happen. to me, this like askin "should black tall people be allow to play basketball?" in this day n age. that question would justs be dumb! so, is this one. there are better thing to worry about then whats happens in someelses bedroom.

i know a gay man who loves to play football his favorite position is Tight end

maybe im givin off the wrong tone or something.... im not mad or pissed off. its justs with everything happenin around the world people are stuck on ball players who are gay. there are people homeless on the street with nothing to eat, so what! as long as ur favorite player isnt gay.

To pepper2007 "im sorry" im not tryin to disrespect anyone!feel free to talk anything u want. this thread was started on feb 17 its is now july 17, threads about global warming, katrina, havnt lasted this long. if this thread was about mcgreevy (sp).. i could understand why people would be upset about that. i justs dont see why knowing if football player is gay or not makes such a hoot. again im sorry.

better yet, ill start a thead about katrina, lets see if last six months.

Its, okay no disrespect taken!

Ahemmm...I can represent...Bring it.
There are plenty of gay, lesbian, and bi sexual people here.

When it comes to sports and being gay...SO FREAKIN WHAT!!? It's a damn JOB!! Who cares, really. And why??
I don't care if the player is green, black, white yellow, purple, with one leg, no eyes or even 4 ft tall. What the hell difference does it make?? They aren't going to attack you. Your gonna have to give a signal to them first. Gay and lesbian people have incredible senses about heteros that have tendancies. They are like any other minority. Acceptance is all they want in this world of so much difference. They are no different than what the women have and are going through right now. And the African American people and Hispanics and all other minorities. Seems some people have to always be hating someone.

I forgot something. Hardact: You have my respect sir.

How do you know this?

because some of us spend LOTS of time with folks who just happen to like the same sex. we're not afraid, we don't shun them...we jump our asses right in there.

they ARE us...all around you, you just don't know it. according to the kinsey report...ONE THIRD of ALL men in the US have had sex to orgasm with another man.

Thats to bad, but there are lots of men in prison!

I don't believe this includes men in prison. To my knowledge; they don't give opinion polls to prisoners. Anyway...so does being in prison somehow make it understandable? Many women are raped in womens prisons. They do not come out preferring women...well....Depends on their luck with the men in their lives, one would guess.

Pepper: Look you...gay men know they are different long before they act upon it. From childhood mostly. Some choose to try and fit in the hetero world unhappily. To suicide much of the time.
It is my contention that to have fear of someone different, is fear of ones self.
Have you ever a white woman? Or even seen someone date out of their race? Wasn't that long ago it was thought about,shunned and treated just as gays are treated now. Women in the work place, men waiters, living together without being married! That was REALLY wrong. That was a stink that was hard laced. According to when that came about; half the people in America are bastards. (I do not feel that way) Just saying. There is always something to ***** about. Isn't there?

oops, sorry bout that word. bich, supposed to have a"T" in there.
