49ers cornerback: No gays allowed

The most inflammatory remarks prior to the Super Bowl come from the mouth of one of the most least likely of candidates. Raise your hand if you need to look up the name Chris Culliver? The 2nd year corner made shocking remarks in regards to homosexuality in the NFL when he spoke with comedian Artie Lange during media day for the Big Game.

Lange asked Culliver about the possiblity of gay player being a teammate, and Culliver gave a very honest, yet sure to be criticized response:

“I don’t do the gay guys man,” said Culliver, whose Niners play the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. “I don’t do that. No, we don’t got no gay people on the team, they gotta get up out of here if they do.

“Can’t be with that sweet stuff. Nah…can’t be…in the locker room man. Nah.”

When quizzed by Lange whether any homosexual athletes would need to keep their sexuality a secret in football, Culliver responded: “Yeah, come out 10 years later after that.”

It’s extremely shocking that Culliver would say what he said with the spotlight so bright at this point. His comments just come a day after it was revealed that former San Francisco 49er Kwame Harris is gay. Harris was outed in a police report after a domestic dispute with his boyfriend. Culliver is sure to be questioned by the media as they continue to make their rounds, and it will be interesting to see if he retracts his comments or goes the old “out of context” route. For what it is worth, Culliver also sent out a pretty obnoxious tweet about females on Wednesday

Boy I wake up to a mean txt females in general just be — well let me just say they be on there PERIOD!! #1 love is mom dudes!!! Period

But the question is, how much of what Culliver said is true? Do most straight males in an NFL locker room feel the same way? It’s likely that a majority do, but just won’t express the sentiment. That’s just the reality. But that doesn’t excuse the back up corner for his ridiculous and ignorant comments.

"I do not associate with those who speak ebonics," said Colquitt, whose Chiefs have the first pick in the draft this year. " I do not approve. We do not have a single uneducated fellow in this organization who abuses the English language. They must pack up their belongings and leave hastily if that is the case."

/white people.

I don't agree with his views, but he will be persecuted for telling the truth. That is as wrong as his homophobia to me. People feel how they feel. The PC bullshit is out of control, and we are about to have a cookie cutter society where no one ever says what they think, and instead give the canned acceptable response.

Jim Neighbors was outraged. It has always been his dream to suit up for the niners.

Yeah that is definately creepy. Is it that he wants to go all Larry Johnson on women or is it that he has insectious thoughts about his mother and these "females" don't match up?

It's funny how players are baited into these types of things just so the media can overreact.

I think the "gays in sports" conversation was just too much to bareback in the day, it's nice to see it come to the forefront in today's manscape.

The funny part is he plays for San Francisco.

I saw a few interviews of his team mates who were on the team with Kwame Harris and they didn't have a problem with gays. They were surprised Harris was gay but seemed like they couldnot care less.
