regarding chris broussard's commentary on jason collin's decision to come out ?


"Personally, I don’t believe that you can live an openly homosexual lifestyle or an openly ... like premarital sex between heterosexuals. If you’re openly living that type of lifestyle, then the Bible says 'you know them by their fruits.' It says that, you know, that’s a sin,...And if you’re openly living in unrepentant sin, whatever it may be, not just homosexuality -- adultery, fornication, premarital sex between heterosexuals -- whatever it may be, I believe that’s walking in open rebellion to God and to Jesus Christ. So I would not characterize that person as a Christian because I don’t think the Bible would characterize them as a Christian."

collins had said
"I'm from a close-knit family. My parents instilled Christian values in me. They taught Sunday school, and I enjoyed lending a hand. I take the teachings of Jesus seriously, particularly the ones that touch on tolerance and understanding. On family trips, my parents made a point to expose us to new things, religious and cultural. In Utah, we visited the Mormon Salt Lake Temple. In Atlanta, the house of Martin Luther King Jr. That early exposure to otherness made me the guy who accepts everyone unconditionally."

broussard later stated on twitter:
Today on OTL, as part of a larger, wide-ranging discussion on today's news, I offered my personal opinion as it relates to Christianity, a point of view that I have expressed publicly before. I realize that some people disagree with my opinion and I accept and respect that. As has been the case in the past, my beliefs have not and will not impact my ability to report on the NBA. I believe Jason Collins displayed bravery with his announcement today and I have no objection to him or anyone else playing in the NBA.

espn later released this statement:
"We regret that a respectful discussion of personal viewpoints became a distraction from today’s news. ESPN is fully committed to diversity and welcomes Jason Collins’ announcement."

espn will be getting pressure from both sides either way (if they discipline broussard or if they fail to do so)

Broussard is the typical Bible-thumping, hating "Christian" check-box robot, spewing knee-jerk hate. He probably thinks egg impregnated a hour ago is viable human being that can feel pain, and the Bible is a history and scientific textbook.

Not sure what the big deal here is. Referring to Broussard's comments obviously and not Collins' announcement which is a big deal. Broussard made it clear he was giving a personal opinion, acknowledged that some will disagree, and kept things respectful. I don't think ESPN will, or should, have to do anything.

SCALIA NEVER GOING TO ANOTHER N.B.A. GAME


WASHINGTON — Justice Antonin Scalia disrupted the normally tranquil atmosphere of the Supreme Court today, bursting from his office to shout, “I’m never going to another damn N.B.A. game as long as I live!”

While it was unclear what, exactly, had provoked Justice Scalia’s outburst, one of his clerks said that “he saw something on ESPN that really upset him.”

After emerging from their offices to see the source of the commotion, the other Justices found a visibly agitated Justice Scalia, his face beet-red and his entire body shaking with rage.

“I’ve gone to basketball games my entire life,” he bellowed. “I always thought that was a ‘safe place.’ Well, I guess I was wrong. I guess I’ve been wrong about a lot of things, haven’t I? Haven’t I?”

As Justice Clarence Thomas wordlessly moved to comfort him, Justice Scalia rebuffed his fellow-juror.

“Get away from me, Clarence!” he screamed. “I can’t trust anyone anymore.”

I'm not sure why ESPN personalities are pontificating about homosexuality as it relates to one's Christianity anyway. Forget Broussard, who the hell was producing this show and thought that would be an appropriate topic for a TV sports network to tackle?

I don't think anything will (or should) happen to Broussard. He answered a question on air.

If you don't want an opinion then don't ask.

What's really funny and very real is how we are seeing two different worlds here. One is...."say the right thing"...the other is how people really feel about it. Yep, not unlike right here in hiding. If you were actually face to face with anyone here you'd talk totally different than you do hidden away. We are seeing that with this.

Donovan McNabb wanted to tell the truth, you could tell. So he jacked around trying to get around that truth. Nobody has the balls to tell it like it realy is and it is a bit comical to watch.

I played 20 years organized football, I guarantee a gay guy would have stood no chance out there and it's just like that right now and everyone knows it but just can't say it.

What does the crowd yell after their gay QB throws a game losing INT, yep!

It's draft day, a young guy gets picked number 7 in the first round he turns and kisses mom, hugged dad then kisses his boyfriend. Tell me that will work.

Nothing should be done. However ignorant or intolerant his opinion is to some people, he was at the end of the day, offering his opinion when ESPN brought him on air to discuss the topic. It's a shame people can't speak their minds nowadays.

ESPN are pussies, so they'll probably end up firing him.

What they should do, is nothing. Broussard stated his backwards-ass opinions in a respectful manner. People should be allowed to do share their opinions in a respectful manner, no matter how fucking stupid they are.

The bottom line is if homosexuality wasn't a negative situation then why make announcements at all? Why ask anyones opinion about it at all? Who is talking about being heterosexuals, yep, nobody.

People in the media (like they get paid) can't talk openingly about this. They must say the right things. Well I don't.

Homosexuality can and should be tolerated. But....we don't need the parades. And they need to realize they simply can't do some things. Yep, pro football being one of them. It's just not suited for a gay athlete, plain and simple. Yes yes yes if asked his teammates will say all the right things but trust me they aren't thinking what they are bullshitting the media with.

Just have our gay basketballer hug and kiss on his gay lover a few times not unlike the others kissing/hugging their wives/girlfriends and watch what happenings.

It's like owning a pit bull, keep it chained...cool. You let it start roaming the neigborhood, problem.

For Broussard to get fired based on one statement, his comments would have had to have been out-of-the-blue crazy shit like calling RGIII a "cornball brotha" for dating a white woman. Since he's black, he warrants a little extra forbearance from ESPN because greivance groups are involved on both sides and they have to be sensitive to that. If Merrill Hoge says something like that, you just drag him out in the parking lot, shoot him, and dump the body.

The Superbowl is over, our winnig QB runs over and gives his gay lover a big hug and kiss, yeo, in front of the world.

Troof. Instant relevance.

One minute you tell me how times have changed now that's a retarded question? What it is is reality, you know as well as I do no dad is letting his son play for a gay coach, so why the games?

I don't have any problem with this. I am a dad of one (two in a month) son(s).

I still say it puts them in a bad situation. They liked him enough to pick him up when they thought he was straight. If they don't make an offer some in the media will definitely blame it on homo discrimination.

When I played football the reward for missing a block in practice was to play the part of the queer in "smear the queer".

You missed blocks on purpose, didn't you.

Maybe that's his motivation, maybe it isn't. I tend to think it isn't. I just don't see a Stanford grad who's already made 12 years of NBA money being that desparate for a new contract to where he'd be willing to put himself under such a huge microscope solely for the purpose of getting to make league minimum for another year or two. If he gets a contract he still has to walk into that locker room, he's still got to walk into an arena every game and listen to what the fans say. I think he's genuine in his motives.

really old white guys? yep

Really old white guys generally like the color green, so if there was a gay QB who was really good, I am pretty sure that they would draft that man as an attempt to have a much better than average chance at ~10% of the population buying that jersey.

maybe, but he's also been a product of marketing for those 12 years. He's likely got a little horse-sense regarding his exposure and to think that there's some monetization to coming out is not completely out there.

Retarded is thinking a player would put up with playing with straight players that suck over gay players that dominate their sport.

Pretty sure Bible belt Baylor is not forfeiting their women's championship title after hearing their best player is gay.

I'd say the odds are extremely high they knew she was gay during her playing days.


She already said that her team has known for a while.

I think we all know that a superstar franchise type talent could probably get away with coming out in the NFL...but role players? All other things being equal the gay role player will get cut every time IMHO. Football locker rooms are still a little behind the times in being PC.

NFL locker rooms is how it was, is and will stay.
