No Drinking! No Drugs! No Lesbians!






No Drinking! No Drugs! No Lesbians! Does this sound like a George Thoroughgood blues song to you? They were the team rules for Penn State women’s basketball until yesterday.

Penn State basketball coach Rene Portland resigned after 27 years at the helm amidst accusation that she harasses Lesbians which leads me to conclude she is a latent lipstick lesbian with gender identification issues. If her husband looks like a girlie man that would cinch it.

Superbowl Coach Tony Dungy recently “came out” against gay marriage but he should not be making those statements because if you put every NFL head coach in a barrel and said “pull on the gay one” Tony would win every time because he is soft spoken and gentle and sensitive and who knows maybe at times even silly and his quarterback is Payton and did you ever see that commercial where Payton and Eli are playing grab ass at ESPN studios?

Imagine the same commercial with Warren Moon-there’s a pun- and Doug Williams. It just wouldn’t happen.

I wrote in a sports column that Candace Parker of Tennessee the 6’4” best collegiate player on the planet was among other things beautiful which is why the camera always follows her. I didn’t notice until it hit the page that beautiful was taken out because it is politically incorrect to reference any physical attractiveness when describing a woman who is playing a sport. In other words Mia Hamm is a dog but there is the whole Brandy Chastain sports bra phenomena not to mention Anna Kournikova and Maria Sharapova sometimes describes as Tennis Hotties so what is the opposite Bowling Bimbos?

Are collegiate women’s sports skewed to favor lesbians? Gee, I don’t know perhaps they could ask Pokey Chapman who resigned from the LSU job after it was alleged, suggested or whispered aloud that Pokey was a Predator Lesbian who had sexual relationships with former players but never the ball boy.

Ellen Seidler writing on the website www.365gay.com which is bookmarked at my grandmother’s house said,” Beneath the general uneasiness about lesbians in women's sports is the unreasonable yet pervasive fear among some parents that their daughter will be influenced to become gay if her teammates and coaches are openly gay. Since recruiting top talent is such a fundamental factor in building a winning team, this issue will continue to be a sensitive one. Chatman's actions, if proven to be true, certainly don't help dispel the lesbian-as-predator stereotype.

I was standing next to a naked gay man in a fitness club locker room just the other day. He was wearing only flip flops because of nasty bacteria on the floor. What would be the chance of me nonchalantly hanging in front of my locker in the same outfit? No chance! “What’s up? I said quickly amended to “how’s it going? Nice flip flops. Are they purple?

Peace and I don’t care. I just don’t!
