You know what the "sin of Sodom" was?? Violating the sacred trust of hospitality by humiliating and judging strangers. Guess what, Mike Hewitt? That means YOU are a "sodomite."

I remember reading something a few years ago about how 99% of NBA players cheat on their girlfriends/wives while on the road. Whatever the actual number, there is probably no profession on earth where extra-marital sex is so common.
It's mind-boggling that Broussard can profess to "walk with the Lord" while he promotes/exalts the Godless NBA and its lifestyle. Isn't that kind of like a devout jew working as a p.r. flack for a concentration camp?

@130 I find it ironic that Clemons said being a distraction hurts the team and then he went and became a HUGE distraction just as the Seahawks were being lauded as perhaps the favorites to win the Super Bowl next year.
Reminds me of when Terrell Owens accused Tony Romo of being a distraction by dating Jessica Simpson. Gee, I can't remember, didn't Terrell Owens turn out to be the one poisoning team unity? I forget...

@131 When Ichiro Suzuki became the first Japanese position player in the majors in 2001 it was a HUGE distraction. Dozens of foreign reporters tracking his every move, national media at every stop, biggest media circus ever.
If I remember correctly, Ichiro won MVP, Rookie of the Year and the team won 116 games--the most ever.

Talk about distractions! What is Chris Clemons' opinion of this?

@95 Granted. My point is that Chris Clemons didn't think Tebow deserved to be criticized. Not all distractions are created equal I guess.

@94 Black churches? More likely Clemons has been influenced by the gay stereotypes from Damon Wayans' characters on "In Living Color"

Someone needs to ask Clemons why he didn't criticize Tim Tebow when he was grabbing all the headlines in 2011.
Nobody in the NFL in the last 20 years has been a bigger distraction to their team.
Why is it okay when Tebow said he hoped to use his public profile to spread God's word, but it's not okay for a gay NFL player to spread the message that everybody has a place on the team?

Not all pro athletes believe what Chris Clemons believes. I am a huge sports fan and one thing you learn about sports is that the best teams are like families. They stick up for, and support each other.
The question I have for Clemons is, if his brother or sister were gay, would he support them coming out?
I believe most of today’s professional athletes (remember most were born after 1980) would support their siblings regardless of who they choose to marry. A lot have said so.
Charles Barkley, a long-time supporter of gay marriage and gay rights, says he knows he had gay teammates and couldn't care less.
Buffalo Bills safety George Wilson said of a gay teammate, “As long as you can stay productive and get the job done, you’re still gonna remain one of the guys.”
Atlanta Falcons defensive lineman Ray Edwards said of the prospect of a gay teammate, “I’d be very open to it. ... I don’t have a problem with it at all.”
Detroit Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander said in a CNN interview: “I don’t think one of our players would be scared to come out. We got 25 guys, it’s a family, and our goal is to win a World Series. What your sexual orientation is, I don’t see how that affects the ultimate goal of our family."
“For me, it’s obvious that everyone should have the same rights and ability to play the game. It doesn’t matter race or sexual orientation."
-Henrik Lundqvist New York Rangers 2012 Vezina Trophy winner for best NHL goaltender
Michael Irvin, NFL Hall of Famer, said he would support any athlete in the NFL, NBA, NHL or MLB who comes out.
Cleveland Browns LB Scott Fujita first voiced his support for gay marriage in 2009, reacting and agreeing with fellow NFL colleague Brendon Ayanbadejo.
Donte Stallworth, New England Patriots WR, showed support on Twitter, tweeting a string of messages for marriage equality and LGBT rights
NBA All-Star Steve Nash says he’s proud to be a part of a growing group of athletes speaking out for gay marriage.
San Antonio Spurs Manu Ginobli supported the movement to legalize gay marriage in Argentina.
Michael Strahan of the NY Giants said, “I feel it's unfair to keep committed couples from being married."
Zdeno Chara, captain of the 2011 Stanley Cup Champion Boston Bruins, states that he will back an openly gay hockey player, declaring "I will always stand up for my teammates."
These pros make me glad to be an athletic supporter!
