Tony Parker apologized for uttering a gay slur during France’s overtime victory against Spain in the semifinals of the EuroBasket 2013 tournament.
Parker said in the press conference following that game that France were playing like “tapettes” during a first half in which they trailed by double-digits. The world translates into loosely into fairy or fag, according to various online dictionaries.
He apologized (http://www.purepeople.com/article/tony-parker-a-joue-comme-une-tapette-la-star-derape-et-s-excuse_a128486/1) for the comment at a later press conference:
“I’d like to apologize to the gay community. I did not want to offend them. If I have offended the gay community, I apologize. It was not my intention at all. It is not right to say what I said I’m sorry. And apologize.”
France went on to crush Lithuania in Sunday’s final for its first European title.
It should be noted that Parker issued a statement of support after fellow NBA player Jason Collins revealed his homosexuality earlier this year.
