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.

Just to be clear, I'm not discounting his thoughts or reasoning. I'm pretty sure he was just "talking out loud". But with further inspection, it's pretty easy to poke holes in the idea.

And for the record, I didn't mean any disrespect.

I'm not sure how you can marginalize terrorists act committed in recent years by saying..'well, Christians in the 1700's did it too'

Yeah, those are just my thoughts.

I understand no social issue is ever so cut and dry, but for this particular scenario, I do feel like blacks should be more sympathetic to the LBGT plight. Their whole fight for equality is pretty similar to that of blacks and women in America, and kind of a new age Civil Rights Movement.

I think in 50 years, we'll look back in disgust that these people didn't have the same rights as us, much the same as we do now for blacks and women.

I didn't claim to be tossing out pearls, but it's certainly more brilliant than the bullshit you're peddling.

There are just some things society should NOT tolerate. Bigotry is one of them.

How do you not see they stupidity and hypocrisy in this post of yours?

Bigot:

a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices

Of course, you're right.

It's really difficult to address with a broadstroke.

Hope you and the family are well!

Most of his brilliance comes from one liners like Peyton Manning, clearly way ahead of his time.

Well, I can only speak for myself, but I already believe it's disgusting.

But I don't think that the NAACP or any other African-American organization should feel responsible for reaching out and forming an alliance with the LBGT community because they're in the minority.

If they choose to do so, it should be in good faith, which is belief in their cause.

JMO.

Damn right - gays are one of them.

When the hell did this 'accept the gays being gay' movement become the 'in' thing to do? No matter which way you slice it, it makes no sense. If you are religious, there's not many ( if any ) religions that accept it, based on their various beliefs. If you are not and believe we're just part of the whole mother nature / evolution bit, then you acknowledge the 'meaning of life' to be the same as every other animal - procreate - which is in direct opposition to a state of homosexuality, ie. unnatural.

As far as people criticizing the player for his comments because they may hurt someone's feelings or make someone uncomfortable, three words come to mind - grow a set.
