Well, it seems as if my football hero and role model Jeremy Shockey has once again found himself in the midst of a controversy.  Shockey was reacting to some derogatory comments made by Bill Parcels, the current coach of the Dallas Cowboys and former Giants head coach.  Shockey stated, ""Let's see how much Parcells wins this year, I'll make him pay when we play them. The homo."  In the real world, comments are made like this every day.  Real men who play sports for example, find it humorous to call someone else a homo.  And frankly, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. Let me explain this concept to all the morons out there. It is very insulting to call another man gay, homo or queer because it's the lowest thing to say to them. Now, how can this be offensive to anyone else other than who the insult was directed to?  If he called Bill Parcels "fatso", should all overweight people be offended and demand an apology?

Then earlier today I read that Shockey made an apology.  "I am going to be as plain as possible," Shockey said. "You'll probably never hear me say an outrageous thing ever again. I'll probably never talk to you again."   Who was the apology meant for?  Parcels?  Gays?  The American People?  The French?  The Taliban?  Nobody really knows.  Bash the President of the United States all you want, but heaven forbid you call someone a freakin homo in this country.

At least he never raped a young girl, bit anyone's ear off or made bets on NFL games.
