Wow...

2) Blue is what 19, 20? Yeah. We all said things we shouldn't have at that age.


How many of us were prominent running backs for LSU? Apples to Oranges.

I love how homophobes think that ALL gay men want to have sex with them. Ever stop to think that the guy just wants to go about his business and DOESN'T want to frick your supple little butt?

Not only that, but a gay man would have to be crazy not to want to frick my supple little butt.

I think people here who are on the "He was just speaking his mind" bandwagon have never held a position of professional scrutiny or organizational obligation to understand why his comments were a bad idea.

As a prominent LSU football player, he is a public figure whether he likes it or not. He represents the university and, in turn, the state. He needs to understand his spot and be cautious. That's the way the world works.

I find it fascinating that so many posters here are okay with others making broad generalizations about groups of people. "Gay men are sissies" The same posters who get upset when a Bama fan says that all LSU fans are trashy because of one game day experience with one LSU fan.

Blue was 19 coming out of high school. If I remember correctly he completed some kind of accelerated program because he was behind academically. He is also a senior. Not really a smart move on his part. All he had to say was "no comment". He doesn't ever have to agree with gay football players in the locker room.

Kudos to Big Al. I am sick and damn tired of having all this homosexual business thrown in my face. Don't ever expect me to accept what they are doing as normal and acceptable.

You don't have to accept them, but you must respect them as equal citizens. They deserve fair treatment just like anyone else under the law.

What Alfred said is more ironic than it is idiotic, especially since we are celebrating Jackie Robinson's life now.

Blue said what is the absolute truth in any football locker room. Unfortunately some reporter got Blue to answer the question. Blue couldnt win either way on this one.
Its time for CLM to address his team regarding exploitation by the media. Its a different time and place.Im glad I got to experience college when i did and not now. Any little slip up can be national news in an hour. These kids cant afford to be kids any more; its a shame.
