I don't know how Charles Barkley really feels. However, I'd bet that the vast majority of these former pro athletes (and some current) don't believe the bullsh!t their spewing for one second. They realize that if the don't tow the party line, they'll be out of a job -- FOR GOOD.

The most courageous guy in all of this is Chris Broussard.

I mean, what he said is correct, would anyone really dispute that?

I'm assuming you're not counting Jason Collins in this one lol.

Charles Barkley has never censored himself before, I don't know why he'd start now.

Charles isn't one to BS people. It sounds completely authentic.

The only thing I came away with from the Broussard dialogue is that he is likely a hypocrite. There are so many "laws" in the bible that people in modern society would deem ridiculous that it would be practically impossible to live life by the bible.

I also find it funny that all of these people condemn homosexuality as a sin and being so terrible when it was never even mentioned by Jesus in the New Testament. If it was so important, you would think your messiah would have mentioned it.

Spot on. I remember him commenting after Beyonce did a performance (might have been at NBA all-star weekend or something)... Barkley commented he doesnt see how any man could look at that and choose to go another route..(then started laughing with kenny the jet). Basically mocking gays.

He has learned to be PC in his career now, but you can bet he doesnt like or agree with gays.
