Tim Hardaway Makes Homophobia Look Bad

Even the conservative group Concerned Women for America attacked Hardaway, lamenting that he has made being antigay look bad.

You’re right, Vince. Hardaway’s biggest problem was his unfortunate command of the English language. See what happens when jocks don’t study? Of course he may harbor actual hate for homosexuals, and that’s a real problem. I certainly doubt that he is “fearful” of them. But still, publicly stating one’s opposition to the gay agenda is worse than anything else in the whole wide world, and I’m afraid Tim will have to be put to death. …..end over the top comments…..

Hey Sister, Remember back in the 80s when female reporters were first allowed into Men’s Locker rooms to do postgame interviews? Some players griped and said they didn’t want women in men’s locker rooms, and they were put down as misogynists, while the MSM hailed it by and large as yet another glass ceiling that came down for women reporters. Of course, there’s no reciprocity that I am aware of- I don’t believe that men can get inside of women’s locker rooms immediately after a game or match to interview them while they are undressing.

Just a side note to this whole controversy- If Hardaway hadn’t used the “Hate” word, which was his stupid way of emphasizing his point, and not said that he was straight out “homophobic” (BTW I can’t stand that word- who literally flees in fear of homosexuals?) he would have been on more defensible grounds.

He should have said that he hates Christians and doesn’t want them on his team. That’s perfectly acceptable. But oppose homosexual behavior? Why, that’s a moral sin!

PCD,
Wrong Hardaway. This is Tim Hardaway; Penny Hardaway’s real name is Anfernee. I understand what you meant.

Now, what about gays who say the same thing about straights? Oh, they are gays and can’t be criticized or held accountable for their actions. but Penny Hardaway can because he isn’t gay.

Hardaway’s especially visceral reation to gays suggests that he doth protesteth too much….

Guess what? I’m gay, and I couldn’t care less whether he likes me or not. But then, I have a life and don’t spend my time finding ways to be offended.

Is there a “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy in the NBA?
