Off topic, but I watched a bit of Westminster Kennel Club's new agility competition Saturday night.

The commentator was so passionate, so enthusiastic and knowledgeable of the course and rules. "Good Doggie, Good Doggie", praising each and every one the competitors and lavishing praise on the handlers, more so the males than females. ...his good & close friends.

It was like so obvious the commentator graduated from the Homosexual Speech Academy, he was like so prissy.

Staying tuned in for the dogs and wanting to know who this prissy man was, they finally want to the commentators on camera for commentary.

Low and Behold, it was none other than a grey-haired, prissy, Greg Louganis.

Deviant sexual behavior is given the status of race and ethnicity.

This is all about money.
The guy comes out as a homosexual.
Doesn’t get a big contract offer by any teams he tries out for.
Oops here come the lawyers....
Hey, you people are homophobes and did not offer our client a contract that you would have if he wasn’t “gay” so you are going to have to pay up now............

Bragging rights for being abnormal? Bring back the days of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.

The same exact media hacks, familiar name by familiar name, who are pontificating the celebration of Sam, could not have been more snarky and mocking of Tebow. It would make a great contrast/storify to see the tweets side by side (from “distractions” (poor excuse if used against Sam, Tebow is a big distraction), to “public pronouncements” (proud gay = good, proud Christian = please keep it to yourself). The hypocrisy is amazing. Thank you, Google.

It will cost him money, I would have to think. NFL football is a team sport and xtremely competitive. Distractions can cost a franchise and an individual player trying to make the NFL.

I knew this Ayanbadejo character was a bad egg. Yes I remember the Miami debacle. Any athlete that would put petty grievances above a shot at a national championship is an odd and twisted person and a rotten teammate.

Homosexuals are doing something wrong. Blacks are not doing anything wrong. That’s the difference!

Actually, the biggest problem with this analogy is that there is no recent history of any gay person being rejected from the NFL or any other sports team.

The pro-Gay folks might say it is because nobody knew (which is the interesting thing about being gay, most people won’t know, it isn’t like your race or sex).

But if you don’t live in the closet, people would figure it out. And it is widely stated that there are currently gay athletes, that they are known to their peers, and that nobody really cares, and they keep it quiet.

Just like Missouri kept this quiet when the entire team knew.

It is highly unlikely that even a significant minority of fans would refuse to buy a ticket or to support a team that had an openly gay member. So again, there is really no analogy to the real problems that black athletes experienced in the past, with teammates ignoring them, teams refusing to hire, coaches refusing to teach, and referees treating poorly regarding fouls.
