lol. Never heard of Kerry Rhodes being gay before but this video looks a little suspect. He also has a little bit of a gay look to him, similar to the FB from the Ravens.

Shame to see American sports are still ignorant, racist and homophobic in 2013. Thought we were a progressive nation?

jason collins is unsigned cuz he sucks...3.6 ppg 3.8 rpg career avgs, hes a scrub, no one's making excuses, stop being so sensitive and making up something from nothing...

Oden took his spot on the Heat. He wanted to show Lebron some low post moves.

Yeah man when I took a gym class with a gay kid in high school I couldn't even sleep at night because I couldn't stop thinking WHAT IF THAT MAN SAW MY DICK!?!?

Oh no wait, it didnt matter at all. Sorry I always get that mixed up.

No surprise, Collins is terrible.... Kerry Rhodes on the other hand is on the decline.... Doubt it has anything with them being gay...

When the real reason is: "He doesn't get signed because he sucks".

Exactly.

If this was LeBron being gay and not getting signed in 2014 then that's really a concern about homophobia in the NBA, but an old unproductive NBA player not getting signed isn't unusual at all.

I agree collins is a scrub but I was shocked that nobody has signed Rhodes as a cardinals fan I thought he was our best safety and adrian wilson is the one who declined hard but got picked up by patriots. Im just finding out that hes potentially gay Im starting to think thats why hes not signed

I find it hard to believe its coincidental.

What the heck standard is that? He's been in the league every year, so he should just keep getting a contract? Iverson was signed by a team ever since he was drafted until 2010, but then he stopped getting contracts. I guess the NBA has it in for a black rebel like him.

Wait.

Their sexual orientation has nothing to do with getting an NBA contract?

I don't believe you.

Chances are not all of those players are straight since around 1/10 people are gay, but most of the people on that list are better than Collins.

Drogba · Post #75 » by **Drogba** » Mon Aug 5, 2013 8:12 pm

Homophobia doesn't exist just as racism and sexism don't. It's inconceivable their sexual preferences are playing a part in them being unsigned.

Jason Collins had a prime?

Those two being unsigned have nothing to do with their sexuality though. Both are scrubs.

I know what you did

I honestly didn't mean to haha.

I'd rather give a young guy a chance (Thabeet) than Collins if I had to choose between the 2 of them.

OK, let's not get carried away and say things we might end up regretting.

Yeah, I'm not sure if Thabeet can even foul out without messing it up.

They are not good players. Just because your gay doesn't mean they will sign you. Collins is past his playing days.
