    Either he is truly beyond redemption or he is a troll playing a game. Either way, the bigotry he posts is an embarrassment.

    When did you choose to be hetero?

    As usual, the Onion hits it on the screws.

    I don't know when being gay became chic. I'm not into the lifestyle. But if the man can play football and make a difference, I don't give a rat's ass.

    Chic or grandfathered into political correctness but
    pretty much where I'm at. I could do without "the kiss"
    though. Just repulsive to hetero sensibilities. Since
    Kevin Spacey kissed his driver in House of Cards I have not
    been able to go back to final 2 episodes of this season.

    Sams needs to get to football and layoff the grandstanding.
    I really do not want to turn on ESPN or The NFL Network
    anymore and see him and Vito in a liplock.

    Now if ESPN wants to show us 2 hot female tennis players
    then sign me up. :)

    Why is it "repulsive to hetero sensibilities"? How is it any different than A.J. McCarron kissing Katherine Webb on national TV after a game?

    What are your thoughts on ugly people being shown kissing on tv?

    And yet you are always sure to tell us how little you care.

    It's pretty obvious you do give a rat's ass.

    You also continually refer to it as a lifestyle. Is heterosexuality a lifestyle?

    It is different. The number of testicles is different.

    All of it is lame, though.
