I've heard people say this for years especially on this site. I know most cowboy players and cowboy fans are homosexuals but he doesn't come across as effeminate or anything to me. Is there any basis for these rumors?

I had class with him at OU. We were freshman and sitting in geology class both bitching about not getting a date because we weren't frat boys.

Side note my friend used to jam his sister.

Hot take: Joe Buck looks like the offspring of a penis and a pencil eraser.

Skip Bayless started the rumor I believe. To this day Aikmen has threatened to cave his face in if they cross paths

Because Skip Bayless wrote about the rumor (supposedly coming from people in the Barry Switzer camp) in 1996 and people latched onto it for derogatory reasons.

LINK

quote:

What I’m suggesting here isn’t a defense of Bayless. You can read the above and conclude that Hell-Bent was irresponsible. But if we’re talking about journalistic ethics, we should probably nail down the journalism that was actually done. Did Bayless claim in Hell-Bent that Troy Aikman was gay? No. Did he print claims from other, unnamed persons that Aikman was gay? Yes. Can we assume Bayless did so knowing the results would be explosive? Absolutely. Bayless is not naïve.


It probably didn't help that Troy seems to be a bit private.

Interesting article from Texas Monthly (1998)
quote:

What does it mean to be Troy Aikman? Does anyone really know? When he’s interviewed, he is always articulate, speaks in complete sentences, and never says “um” or “uh.” But he edits himself as he goes, avoiding controversy, stripping out personal color, striking anything that might be taken the wrong way. He is always cautious with writers who come around hoping to do what he calls “the real Troy Aikman story.” One time, many years ago, he reluctantly allowed a reporter to tail him. When another reporter later asked to do the same thing, Aikman told him to hang out with the first reporter.

It's actually because a long time ago Skip Bayless wrote some article claiming Aikman is gay.

Troy Aikman fricking hates Skip Bayless because of it.

It also got perpetuated because troy purposely never addressed it because he was advised to do so because it was such a ridiculous accusation. Troy never felt like it needed to be addressed.
