Today's big sports news was not the New York Jets releasing Tim Tebow, despite what ESPN's early morning coverage suggested. It was that NBA veteran Jason Collins came out of the closet as the first active gay player in a major American sports. ESPN smartened up in the afternoon, though, airing a special edition of Outside the Lines. They brought on Chris Broussard, for some reason, and he made himself look really dumb. Lots of people are saying this will end his journalistic career, though that may be overstating things.
Personally, I don't believe that you can live an openly homosexual lifestlye, or like, premarital sex between heterosexuals… it says that that's a sin… I believe that's walking in open rebellion to God and to Jesus Christ. So, I would not characterize that person as a Christian, because I don't think the Bible would characterize that person as a Christian.
Obviously, Chris Broussard can say whatever he wants about gay people, because Freedom of Speech! But we can also say whatever we want about Chris Broussard. That's the beauty of it. We can even say this.
We can also link you to that one time he didn't know how to spell the word, "Memphis." As long as you don't have premarital sex, or gay sex at all, you don't need to pass the third grade to get on TV.
Ken Fang For those of you wondering, I have the NHL on NBC announcing assignments through Sunday. I will post them on Fang's Bites shortly.
Marc Stein Posted to @TrueHoop: Quickie survey, covering half of the league, on what Jason Collins' NBA future looks like: http://t.co/QbPt4P72Kp
Rich Eisen Very much so, yes RT @BGoren23: @richeisen I stopped after the third episode. Do i need to go back and watch?
Henry Abbott Doesn't make economic sense for NBA to leave Seattle empty-handed for long. Gut feeling is league will sour on some market or another.
