Yeah, but now if you don't give him a contract at least some morons will claim it's because he's gay.

True that. I ran into him at the last No Pants Subway Ride.

The real gays in DC were over at 12" Dance Records on P Street back in the day.
99% of the employees who worked there and customers who shopped there were all openly gay.
From men dressed as women all the way to shirtless muscular incredible hulk body type dudes on rollerblades that place was just as gay if not gayer than any gay nightclub in DC or Baltimore.
I remember walking up to the register one time with a stack of albums I wanted to purchase and the cashier behind the register ignored me, pulled out a mirror and started applying lipstick and other makeup products to his face. "I'm busy right now" "Just leave the albums on the counter and come back and pay for them in 10 minutes" he said.
Sometimes the store phone would ring and nobody would answer it because they did not want to lower the music and disrupt the live in store DJ who was mixing house records in the back of store.
I still have one of their shopping bags.
One of these days I might frame it along with many of my other shopping bags from local businesses which have long since closed just to remind myself how interesting this city was before the CVS, Starbucks and Whole Foods invasion.

What an ignorant piece of sh*t you are. I know from trying to decipher your posts that you're either a complete idiot, a teenager, or both. But that doesn't excuse this type of garbage.

One thing in the "media" response has bugged me -- the intimation that Collins might not get a contract next season because he's gay. He's 34 years old and he's been a terrible player for years. If he doesn't get a contract, the biggest reason will likely be that GMs don't think he's going to help them win games.

Kenny and Charles both pointed this out last night and basically said "this guy is at the end of the line, let's not go crazy if no one signs him." A cynic might say that Collins knows that there will be a push to make sure he;s on a roster next year and that this was actually a savvy move to extend his career a year or two. Rightly or wrongly, teams clearly value old guys who are great in the locker room and in practice -- even if they can't score to save their lives. I'd wager he's in DC, Boston, or somewhere else come opening night.
