I played sports all the time as a kid, I’ve been called faggot on everything from the black top to the tennis court to the gridiron to a mother fucking gymnastics gymnasium. I’m so fucking tired.
If YOU are an athlete, or you cover an athletic team at any level, or you like an athletic team at any level, GUESS WHAT???? We’re there. There’s probably only literally one of us and we hide a lot and we fight as hard as we can because we try and get away from that shit
ON THE FUCKING FIELD because channel your rage, right? And we never, ever get away from it. Fuck Thom Brennaman, and fuck the Reds for hiring him. Fuck baseball not having fired him already, for letting bullshittery about “unwritten” rules continue, because all that
“Unwritten” shit is just code for notions of white noble bullshittery that conveniently white people NEVER HAVE TO ABIDE BY IF IT DOESNT SUIT US.
But any how, we take up the games because SURPRISE we’re athletes who like to run and jump and shoot a ball just as much as you fuckers. So AT LEAST keep your asshole fuckwad commentators in fucking line. “Don’t say a slur with a headset on” is what you tell them day fucking one.
