    He just needs to explain that he was talking about either 1) British smoking habits or 2) the Feminist Art Gallery in Toronto.

        Sounds so out of context, he just says it right out of the blue. He thought he was off air and somehow the mic got activated?

                This makes me sad. I want to keep praying to the invisible man up in the sky.

                    Didn't his old man Marty gervin trouble for calling some guy a queer on national radio about a decade ago?

                      He’s lead NFL color when Buck is occupied with the World Series.

                      Is KC actually a f\*g capital? Asking for a friend

                        Just another big mouth a**hole that got caught. And yes, he meant it. He's not real man because he backed out of it the way he did like a little b*tch instead of fessing up and being accountable in a man's way.

                          He's one of the best.

                          Eventually, CBS will scoop him up, in a couple of years or so

                              he is a good announcer but that was way too easy out of his mouth. he would be better saying he said it and asking for help and forgiveness saying he is ignorant.

                                He sucks. Growing up and living in cincy most my life... he got his job because his dad. Little known fact...he announce u.c. Basketball with Derrick Dickey. Marty’s wife and Tom Brennaman’s mother left Marty for Derrick D. Thom would call Derrick D dad on national t.v.. Now don’t bring your personal life into my football game. My buddy hung out with him and I found him a little rat. I will put him in bob coustas position.

                                  yeah but is the Faag word really, so bad that saying it one time accidently should end a long career?

                                  why do people have to be PERFECT 100% of the time these days. this 1 strike you are at shit is crazy.

                                        You would think kansas city is who he meant since thats who they were playing. However, I dont associate that city with gays. My guess is Portland came up off screen, or maybe San Francisco. Probably too high of a stature to lose his job, may get suspended rest of the year though. Wouldnt be surprised if he got buried on FOX for a while either (on the 2nd team now, first while Buck is doing MLB playoffs).

                                            People are fine with the Canadian Prime Minister doing blackface but not people using words.

                                            Interesting, I wonder if being liberal/democrat makes it easier for people to forgive you.

                                              I would guess its not a super obvious city like San Fran....

                                              he said "ONE of the fagg capitols of the world"


                                              so it prob isn't the biggest or most obvious one

                                                I have found among the many homosexuals I have known, unlike the "N" word, straight friends can riff and banter using the "F" word.
                                                Gays do have a sense of humor.

                                                For years I called a colleague "Dorothy" in public and private and got tons of laughs.

                                                  I do wish we heard the whole conversation. Who knows if we ever will. The Reds said they will look at the broadcasting situation "in the coming days" which means "we want this to blow over"

                                                      They were talking about reds next trip on road. Yes I am sure. Google it if you don’t believe. Was watching it on mlb when he spoke. He apologizes on reds tv next game. So wasn’t watching it. Thought nothing of it on mlb...boys being boys.
