Openly Gay Kicker Alan Gendreau Working Toward Cracking An NFL Roster
CBS New York ^ | 4/23/13

Posted on 04/24/2013 1:13:55 PM PDT by SoFloFreeper

Alan Gendreau is just another ex-college football player trying to get onto a National Football League roster.

Except for one thing: He’s openly gay.

Gendreau kicked for Middle Tennessee State from 2008-2011, and he did so exceptionally well. The all-time leading scorer in Sun Belt Conference history, the Apopka, Fla., native amassed 295 points in his career at Murfreesboro.

The 23-year-old, who has been openly gay since he was 15 years old, wasn’t drafted last year and never caught on with an organization.

He’s not about to let his dream die, however. In fact, the former college star thinks he’s more prepared now than ever.

“I thought most kickers were already gay. When the NFL gets an openly gay Center, that’s going to be news. </sarc>”

The centers are walking around being grateful that it isn’t a quarterback. Going under center would have a whole new meaning...

” Unfortunately for libtards, the recent statements by that black athlete (can’t remember his name) represent the widespread views of many in the sporting world, even if they hide it.”

That would be Chris Culliver of the SF 49ers.

I had a conversation recently with a colleague who’s daughter attended UCLA. The daughter had mentioned that many many athletes (especially the football players) were being graded differently than non-athletes. Athletes had major tutoring programs and other “academic help”, to keep them eligible.

It’s very important for a place-kicker to find a good ball-holder….

I saw this one on yahoo news - What happens if the kicker gets one in the crotch and fails to wear a cup? the family jewels are no being utilized for what God intended they be utilized for? Is he able to sue the NFL if he starts sounding like Alvin, Simon and Theodore - the chipmunks?

I wish I could remember the movie where the guy gets it the family jewels and he spits out two large walnuts.

he was cultivated and molested at 15.

That was before his age of consent period. That admission should put some adult in jail.

He’ll fit in with the Bears. When Green Bay blocks a kick, he and Cutler can sit on the bench and mope.
