The only thing is, as a public figure, he has to be more careful, because as is all too obvious even in this little forum, idiots take his comments as a pretext to unleash a feeding frenzy of hate against gays.
lmfao @ PMD who registered on here strictly to post in this thread and bash gays. i mean, who cares about talking about basketball these days, right?

He is en led to his opinion thats fine but as a public persona don't be surprise when you people criticize you for it. He should have known better. All he had to say is I don't agree with it and I am uncomfortable with it. Thats it! What he said is akin to a hate speech and his lame apology was an insult.
for the record, PMD's dancing avatar is ultra gay. i hate s, he should be immediately banned for his choice of avatar. it makes me feel very uncomfortable to have to have to view it. what a . i hate s.
What the do you care? What have gay people ever done to you? Who the are you to police people's bedrooms? I love pussy and I got the wife and kids to prove it, but live and let live. Jesus ing Christ.
First of all, I wouldn't want black guys on my team. And second of all, if there was a black guy on my team, I would, you know, really distance myself from him because, uh, I don't think that's right. And you know I don't think he should be in the locker room while we're in the locker room. I wouldn't even be a part of that.
You know, I hate black people, so I let it be known. I don't like black people and I don't like to be around black people. I am racist. I don't like blacks. They shouldn't be in the world or in the United States.'
word of advice, you're a lot more effective being a complete than you are attempting a crack at some humor.
LOL @ people comparing race to being gay
Black people did not have a choice to be black.
Gays do, unless you believe in the "gay gene"
He just said what a lot of guys in the league are probably thinking.
They are not stupid enough to say it. Especially since Stern took quick action by removing Hardaway from any NBA events. This is another up that Stern has to clean up. Media day tomorrow is going to be interesting.

Buck - we all understand you hate gays, and you are en led to your opinion. But just tone down the "prick in their ass" type comments, so we don't have to end up closing the thread. Thanks.
Just tone it down I said.
Good to see we've moved onto the part of the discussion where the world's greatest scientists come to explain that according to all their amazing research sexuality is a "choice," whatever the that means.
Maybe next they'll educate us on the inaccuracy of evolution, cause my ancestors sure as weren't no monkeys!!!11!1!
being gay is a choice; much like one can choose to be a midget, have 6 fingers, pepperoni nipples and kinky hair.
What do you call being a little and exploiting your own sexuality for a book deal?
A la Monica Lewinski or anybody else that has cashed on on sex related scandals for profit? Oh right, this is unique because the person in question is a sexual, got it.![]()
Hmm I could argue more, but I think Buck Rogers pretty much took himself down for me.![]()
Lewinsky didn't hide behind some alterior motive, she wanted to get paid afterwards, and she got paid, everyone knew she was a anyway.
Her book went #5 best seller and sold in excess of 450,000 copies.
See what you can do with your life these days?
Wonder how big of a cut she got from the sales.
i don't have a problem with it. does outrage over the timing excuse rampant phobia? one could hardly blame him for not coming out during his career after witnessing the aftermath of "i hate gays."
I am not sure I follow your reasoning... you are saying Lewinsky saving her ed-on dress to cash in later was OK but Amaechi keeping the fact that he was gay a secret so he wouldn't get pummelled by idiots like Hardaway was not?
Hardaway and any other person in this country has a right to his own opinion. And if an NBA player is going to go though a career basically lying about what he is to himself, and his teammates, he shouldn't profit off of it.
just because he has a right, doesn't mean he's right. his opinion got him fired. the nba player in question kept hidden what would have ostracized him from his teammates and made him hated around the league. who are you to judge what john amaechi has been though?
Lewinsky was a , Amaechi is just some pussy that wouldn't man up to what he was. Did Jakie Robinson write a book when he went out and broke the racial barier? No he didn't he didnt have the luxury of living a lie.
