Re: OT: I really agree I despise Jemele Hill. And I am glad he's going with academics over athletics. Not many people have the opportunity that he's getting, and he wasn't guaranteed as a first two-round pick or anything.
Re: OT: I really agree What a cool guy. Speaking from experience, though, I think he may be disappointed: While he's over there, maybe he'll discover the infinitely superior game of Rugby...
Re: OT: I really agree Why do you object to the praise of Dungy? All Ive ever heard about the guy are good thing on and off the field.
Re: OT: I really agree gotta agree with DaRizz on this one, dungy is a great man and coach. liked the article but let's not kid ourselves, he didn't pass up millions, he just delayed it another year.
Re: OT: I really agree Dungy seems like a solid guy and a decent coach, but because of he is the NFL's version of Tim Tebow, the praise heaped upon him for appearing in one Super Bowl as a coach seems disproportionate to what he has actually accomplished.
Re: OT: I really agree He raised tens of thousands of dollars for antigay groups. He does not just oppose marriage equality, a political disagreement, he says being gay is in and of itself evil. I don't want to hijack the thread, but anyone who says my existence is evil is not on my good person list.
Re: OT: I really agree I Googled and have yet to see quotes of Dungy saying anything close to this. Link? I'm not saying you are libeling him...yet.
Re: OT: I really agree I havent found quotes, but I have found stories about his support Just google: tony dungy, anti gay
Re: OT: I really agree I found stories about his support of keeping the status quo on marriage, but I have seen nothing about him ever saying that being gay is "evil". I'm of the opinion that the media fawns over the guy, remember. I just don't think attributing opinions that I have to find evidence of to Dungy does anything to get to the truth about the guy.
http://www.outsports.com/nfl/2006/0131dungy.htm My last word since as I said I don't want to hijack the thread.
Among the group's online initiatives is No Moo Lies, which claims that, because dogs can't moo like a cow, people aren't supposed to be gay. So much for that ridiculous arguement: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=dog mooing&search_type=&aq=f
Gotta agree with Papa G on this one crandac. Im open to hear your argument but what you posted is more about keeping marriage as a man and woman (which is its own argument), but says nothing about his opinion that gay is evil. Maybe thats dissecting it too much but IMO wrong and evil are two different things
I don't even see where Dungy says it is wrong to be gay. He supports keeping marriage between a man and a woman. 60% of Oregon voted as such (I didn't though).
Hmmm...FREE college, or a quicker entrance to a life surrounded by some of America's most metally-challenged athletes? Tough call there.
