Doubling down on shoving ever more gayness down the throats of Americans, NBC has hired Adam Rippon, the Olympic bronze medal medalist, better known for his criticisms of Vice President Pence.

Should they try to find a heterosexual figure skater?

At this point, the olympics would be better off being broadcast on LOGO.

A Ru-Paul lead in might even boost their ratings.

They aren't being very diverse. This is the norm.

They should stick with the manly heterosexual men they already have, like Johnny Weir.

This was the guy that finished 4th at Nationals and was named to the 3 man team due to “his body of work”? I forget, where did he finish in the Olympic competition because it was no where near the medal stand.

Don't care much as ratings/money will decide the day.

They also had Johnny Weir doing commentary until last year at The Derby, The Sport of Kings. Is this pathetic or not?

Pretty much if you criticize the Trump administration, you have a job from them. I’ll pass on this obnoxious a-hole’s commentary.

He's a real upstanding example to all youth after endorsing a 'Xanax and a drink' to combat stress. The only thing that's important here is that he's gay.

NBC....

Let me guess. You're trying to tie this to Rippon and Kenworthy?

I'm sure it has nothing to do with the massacre in Florida and nonstop news coverage of it.
