Garnett Called \"Gay\"

Another comment - another apology.

At least it was a closer to a REAL apology than the usual "I'm sorry if anyone was offended" non-apology these guys usually make when taken to task.

\"I would like to apologize to the gay and lesbian community for my comments about Kevin Garnett,\" Elson said. \"I realize my comments were insensitive and they were out of character for me. However, I take full responsibility and I have learned a valuable lesson.\"

refreshing isn't it, even though it shouldn't have happened at all

The apology was issued through the Nuggets' media relations department, which (as always) makes me suspicious as to who really wrote it. wink

You think chasing the pink dollar had anything to do with it? After all there are "pink" dollars in the straight community as well in a sense if they are turned off enough by the rudeness of an athlete to lose interest in buying a product they sponsor.

BTW, Mr. Not-Gay Garnett was just named MVP! He definitely earned the honors (and looks good receiving them).

last night "mr gay" shot an amazing turn around jumper right after looking at the opposite end shot clock. The shot bounced on the rim 3 times and then went in to give Minnesota an overtime win at Sacramento.

as much as I like the Kings... man! KG is just awesome!!!
