That's ridiculous.

I almost forgot about that incident in the playoffs.
Originally you said that the fact that he is bisexual changes your view and opinion on him. You did not state whether it was a positive or negative change, so I apologize to jumping to the conclusion that it was negative. However, I stick to my original point, which I think you missed, which is that my opinion or view would not change. Franchise said it well: <div class="quote_poster">Franchise4Ever Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">The only way I can see this changing my "view" on him is me now knowing he is bi-sexual. It would be the same change of "view" if I knew what his favorite color is.</div> Maybe that's just me. And yes, I have known several gay people, a couple of them being good friends. I realize that most people aren't like me and I would agree that if a player was gay or bi, there would be tension and problems in the locker room. It is a big problem in our society.
Sorry if I don't read your whole ramble but I read up until this part. <div class="quote_poster">nextlevelgame Wrote</div><div class="quote_post"> Or are you going to play the same facade that they don't care and it's not an issue?</div> <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Franchise4Ever:</div><div class="quote_post">No, it is just that.

You're trying to be too indepth about a subject that doesn't matter to you, and a subject that shouldn't to the NBA.</div> Like I said, *I* don't care if he is gay or not. I also said it shouldn't matter to the NBA. They are just being ignorant bigots when they allienate someone with a different sexual orrientation than them. What difference is there if they didn't know their defenders sexual preference? It wouldn't make a bit of difference. I've personally talked to gay people, I've shaked their hand. Would it be any different if they were attracted to females? Not really. This goes under the same category as racism.

You expect other people to give you the respect of reading whatever you think, though however wrong it is, and but you have the audacity to ignore the reply? Who are you? What gives you that right? Just cause you assume what I wrote? You think you know anything about how homosexuals and gays are mistreated cause you shook someone's hand and had a superficial conversation with? I was there when my friend was scarred for life. I was there when he was beaten up after school and his locker had a spray paint of "***". Second hand experience. And you don't think we should do anything to rectifcy it. Just ignore it. Don't care, right? It doesn't matter. OFCOURSE THIS TOPIC MATTERS. IF YOU REFUSE TO TALK ABOUT IT THEN YOU ARE SILENTLY ENDORSING THE PRACTICE. Having ignored my post, it only makes sense to me about how ignorant and uncaring you are. But it's ok. I've met types like you. As a minority in America, I've seen my fair share of discrimination. Derogatory named being keyed onto my car. Being subjected to racial profiling during the 90s, where I was strip searched on the Garden State Parkway. And when I tried to start a petition there were types like you. The ones that were like "that's aweful, that's horrible...but I won't sign your petition. It didn't happen to me and I don't want to be associated. But good luck". People that want change to happen without acknowledging that change is needed. But you're the type to ignore it right? It doesn't matter. You don't care, it happens and we're not supposed to care at all. Just keep on going with our lives. Pathetic. I expected more out of today's youth.

What in the world are you rambling about? I mean, did you even read what I said? You're going on countless "tirades" and not even reading what I am posting. I am saying IT SHOULD NOT MATTER. I said I read up until you said what I quoted before replying. I went back to read it, but it really didn't pertain to this topic at all. In that other post you were just rambling. You are continuing to ramble here about your life and "the youth". Sorry for coming off as a jerk, but if you think I'm "ignorant" then go take your petty rambles else where. I don't appreciate being insulted because someone didn't take the time to read what I wrote. I'll say it again. This falls under the category as racism. <u>I-T</u> <u>S-H-O-U-L-D</u> <u>N-O-T</u> <u>M-A-T-T-E-R</u> <u>T-H-A-T</u> <u>H-E</u> <u>I-S</u> <u> B-I-S-E-X-U-A-L</u>. If people key his car, call him names, and do other vulgar and ignorant acts because he has a different sexual orrientation than them, then they are a bigot. There is nothing you can do about that. I don't care if he is what this article says he is. No one should, nor should they hold it against him unless they are yet again, here is the word.....a bigot. <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Chutney:</div><div class="quote_post">I agree that people aren't justified in having a negative opinion of him over this, but I don't think you can blame his teammates for being a bit apprehensive in the locker room.

I wouldn't even want to take a shower with a random female either unless she was my girlfriend, or my wife. Kind of funny to think that these NBA players pat each other on the ass and hug on a regular basis, but are dubious and weary of a bisexual teamate.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">I don't appreciate being insulted because someone didn't take the time to read what I wrote. </div> Feeling is likewise, though I do read what you write. You don't read what I write, admit to it and still speak out of your ass. You find a way to backpedal, and think you have some sort of right to speak when you clearly want to ignore the refute. You're pathetic, ignorant, and worst of all, a hypocrite. Hopefully one day you grow up and stop being such a spoiled kid.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Kind of funny to think that these NBA players pat each other on the ass and hug on a regular basis, but are dubious and weary of a bisexual teamate.</div> This is how I know you don't know what you're talking about. You can't even use words right. Look them up before you add them to your vocab. Dubious you can make an arguement for, but weary just wrong. Did you mean wary? Probably, but if I were to give those two words to you on a test, you probably couldn't tell the difference.
Look son, You're just a kid who likes to live in an ideal world where racisim and bigotry doesn't factor in. Unfortunately, one day you will learn that it is one of the most prevailing problems that this world is dealing with. Maybe, kid, you live in a sheltered suburban city where everyone is tolerant, but open your eyes and step out of that box. PEOPLE ARE BEING MISTREATED EVERYDAY. Ofcourse it shouldn't matter, BUT THAT'S NOT ENOUGH. YOU CAN'T JUST SIT THERE AND SAY THAT AND THEN EXPECT IT TO GO AWAY. NOTHING IS RESOLVED THAT WAY. That, in a nutshell is what I'm telling you, child. For that reason is why we need to air it out to society CAUSE IF DIALOGUE BEGINS THEN RESOLUTION IS ACHIEVED. I can sit here all day and say "yeah, it shouldn't matter" or any other regurgitated response you're learning in elementary school right now, but it's not enough. If you can't understand it then you've obviously have no understanding of the real world and problems dealing with it. Secondly, if you want respect from others don't go saying "I ignored what you wrote, but I expect you to read mine". No, it doesn't work that way. You want respect, you have to give and earn it. I take the time out of my holidays to read whatever crap you write and think about it before I just realize you won't even reciprocate. So before you reply, read everything I write. Think about it, and proceed to respond. However, I bet your obstinance forbids that to happen. And because you're so obdurate, whatever I say won't get into your teenage mind. It saddens me and I shake my head that it takes too much effort to get you to read, but yet, you..of all people think have a right to comment about me "not reading your posts". It doesn't make sense.

<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">After days of mystery in the Nets locker room after the assumption made that a Nets player was bisexual. The player broke out and has come forward. Many expected this player to be Richard Jefferson, but its not Richard. The player who has come out is Nenad Krstic.

Other Nets player have spoken out and said that Nenad will be their teammate no matter what.</div> Source Its not RJ, guys. Its Nenad. I knew it wasn't RJ.
