Michael Irvin on cover of gay magazine

[Sniperpicks]

the votes in CA, a state flooded with liberals , that killed the gay marriage bid came largely from blacks and hispanics

[SportsPedagogy]

Just because you support something doesnt mean that you are that ...

For instance, just because i support the Orioles doesnt mean that im bad at baseball ...

[TheCentaur]

Throughout history there has been a constant struggle between normalcy and abnormality. If the normalcy proponents always had their way we would have no scientific knowledge, brilliant inventions, etc. If the abnormality proponents always had their way we would be in utter chaos with no culture and an unsustainable society. I'm not sure how a guy liking it up the rear helps anything though.

[WvGambler]

I prefer when dad posts pics of females. I'm weird though.

[underthe total]

What kind of heterosexual male would pose for a gay magazine cover, knowing men will be lusting over your picture? Michael Irvin is disgusting

[nyplayer33]

Someone trying to show that he supports gays. The guy had a gay brother. I don't think he gives a shit if guys are checking him out. As long as his words and actions convince his peers that gay people aren't evil and going to destroy the world, he will be content. Good for Irvin.

[MadTiger]

Irvin has balls I give him credit CARD, CASH, CHECK, or MONEY ORDER

FYP, no problem.

On a serious note, that is a very good thought.

But he did NOT have to wear the brokeback retro pads with no shirt. He did NOT have to do that.

I agree, but the guy is at least trying to help people.

You MUST be black. It gets so old when black men think black athletes can do no wrong. Then Roethlisberger goes a little crazy and gets thrown under the bus. If a white athlete did the same thing you would not be saying these things, no sir, no way.
The guy does a revealing and flirtatious pose on the front of a gay magazine. Sick. Wake the fuk up dude

[hawkwind]

He is both a GAY BLADE and a BONE SMOKER But does not make hime a bad person JUST GAY

[jimk6969]

Black and proud. I really could give 2 shits what color someone is. It's 2011. Uhh...black guys do plenty wrong. Vick, Pacman Jones, Plexico, OJ. All black. All did dumb shit. Irvin hasn't always been a saint, but it is pretty hypocritical for us blacks to be so anti-gay considering what our prior generations went through. Rothlesberger has nada to do with this. Your boy was suspended for a pattern of reckless behavior with women and alcohol. Now that you have been schooled, you may go back to humping your brick of a sister in your weekly motel.

You schooled no one cuz. That reckless behavior you speak of is not just the norm, its celebrated in the hood. And did you just accuse me of incest? Hey what do you call incest in a black household? Normal.

[CaptainPrice]

Is he gay?

[MadTiger]

And did you just accuse me of incest? Hey what do you call incest in a black household? Normal.

Even racists agree that the stereotype for this actually works the other way. I am still shaking my head that you went there all backwards. At least get your racism and bigotry straight. Damn.

EDIT: The STEREOTYPE, I said. Of course, people of all backgrounds have this sickness going on.

Done.

[TheCentaur]

Mad tiger you get your shit straight. A much higher percentage of white households have the father living in them. Naturally this would mean there is more incest in these households. In black households where there is a male, occurences are more often not reported or not considered so awful. Also I didn't go there, grits n gravy did.

Irvin was caught with many 'women' when he got nailed for coke. I could give a rat's arse about his sexuality, though.
Afterall, Troy Aikman is gay. Joe Buck is gay. They are the top play-by-play/analyst combo for fox (and both are pretty bad, although what they put their banger into has 0 to do with it).
Irvin understands what the REAL motivator is - and that's green. I say GOOD for him.

Irvin played with gay players that hid in the closet and won Super Bowls with them. Why is this an issue again? Who cares what you F?
If you do, you're probably gay, yourself. And that's fine. No one with half of a brain gives a damn. Null issue IMO.

If you can exploit the stereotype of the wearers of zubaz pants and 3 wolf+moon t-shirt people and make $$, good for you. Thank the hillybilly hypocrats that feed it. I thought it was all about green. Maybe I'm wrong, although I hear that in spite of newcorp's stock falling, a LOT of people watch it. Maybe I'm wrong, though, but I doubt it.

Just resort to lying to prove your points?

The old "if you don't like gays you must be gay yourself" routine. If you like to lie and be wrong at least be original.

[doe]

I'm no homo but irvin is an ugly gay man he should have dressed like a tranny might sell more copies

[Sunde91]

uhhhhh he just kissed Clay Matthews and slapped his ass 4 times

[onlooker]

uhhhhh he just kissed Clay Matthews and slapped his ass 4 times

Seen that. I was like "WTF".

He should of just grabbed his ass, damn.

[Sam Odom]

Gay ????

I wish the world (USA) would move into the 20th century (yeah , I know it's the 21st)

[p19101]

Yeah Irvin has balls... He has other men's balls in his fukking mouth.

Wouldn't you know?

Man it makes me sad I am the same species as this twit. You inbred, racist sloth. Nothing you say makes any sense at all. You accuse folks of things that don't happen and sound like an absolute jacknape.

Irvin has a dead, gay brother. It's obvious why he did this cover and article. There is no secret here. Looking deeper than is blatantly obvious is muckraking horsesh*t. He supports his brother, his brother's ideals and is looking to help promote tolerance for a culture that is pretty rabidly anti-gay. The reasons for putting up such a provocative picture on the cover should really be obvious if you have any semblance of a brain. Covers pay more money and make a much bigger impact. Unless Irvin says he is gay in the magazine, which while supporting his brother's lifestyle would be pretty much the perfect time; he is simply supporting his family and a cause. The greenbacks didn't hurt either. Why is this any different than half naked women or men being on the covers of other magazines? The only reason would be the support aspect coupled with the cause.

Ben Roethlisberger is constantly touted in the NFL as one of the best quarterbacks. Him engaging in his negative behavior was rectified at least some degree by what probably amounts to a payout and a bunch of deserved bad publicity. It hasn't changed how sportscasters tout him, in fact he is pretty overrated. Your example is poor and your claim that another poster who is black would blast Ben for being white is absurd. Ben should have been blasted as was Irvin when they did their nonsense. I am not sure how molesting, getting drunkenly out of control and some form of abuse on women is ever called "going a little crazy" but that's your statement not mine. Try progression friend its a lot less taxing than racism and you look much better in the long run.
