Is He Right??? Seattle Seahawks Baller Chris Clemons Says It Would Be ‘Selfish’ For NFL Player To Come Out As Gay

Posted on March 31, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Is the NFL ready for an openly gay football player ? Chris Clemons Says It Would Be ‘Selfish’ For NFL Player To Be Gay VIa HuffPo reports: There has never been an openly gay player in the NFL, and Seattle Seahawks defensive end Chris Clemons thinks it might be best if it stays that way. In a series of tweets on Tuesday, Clemons said he didn’t think it would be a good idea for a player to come out of the closet while playing professional football, although he insisted he wasn’t homophobic. “Who on Gods earth is this person saying he’s coming out of the closet in the NFL?” tweeted Clemons. Speculation about the possibility of a professional football player coming out picked up this week after a report by Mike Freeman of CBS Sports. “Based on interviews over the past several weeks with current and former players, I’m told that a current gay NFL player is strongly considering coming out publicly within the next few months — and after doing so, the player would attempt to continue his career,” wrote Freeman. He added that the player believes it is “now time for someone to take this step” but is worried about the reaction of homophobic fans. Clemons then explained that he wasn’t against playing with a gay teammate, but he thought coming out of the closet would be a “selfish act” by the player in question. He then added: This is the new homophobic argument- gays are selfish for foisting their lifestyle choices on us. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight! Do you think the NFL and sports world are ready for gay players?? Twitter

Kwame Harris, Ex-NFL Player, Comes Out as Gay

Posted on March 30, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

In an interview with CNN yesterday, former San Francisco 49ers and Oakland Raiders offensive tackle Kwame Harris came out as a homosexual. Harris had been arrested in January for beating an ex-boyfriend and said he underwent significant stress and pressure, keeping his sexuality a secret during his playing days. “You want to escape the despair and turmoil and your mind goes to dark places,” Harris said of keeping his sexuality secret. “I’m happy today, and I’m glad they were just ideas and I didn’t act on any of them. “The cost was great not speak candidly open about myself in complete manner,” Harris said. “If I could have done it differently, I would have hoped I found the strength [to come out].” Harris played for the 49ers from 2003-2007. Ironically, Chris Culliver – a cornerback on that same team this year – got into major trouble two months ago when he denied there were any gay players in his locker room and made disparaging remarks about homosexuals in general. He later apologized and met with a support group for gay, lesbians and bisexuals.

Posted on March 29, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It’s a day many fans of The Real Housewives of Atlanta never dreamed they would see: NeNe Leakes and Kim Zolciak have buried their very contentious habit. The two are BFFs again!!! “Just had the best chat wit @Kimzolciak!” Leakes Tweeted yesterday. “Now I see @BrielleZolciak is following me! I just pulled off the road 2 cry. This is 2 much.” Added Zolciak of the chat between close pals-turned-enemies: “My heart is at such peace @neneleakes best chat ever! See u soon! #onwardandupward.” Season 2 of Kim’s spinoff, Don’t Be Tardy… , premieres April 16 on Bravo. And now the reality star has a second reason to be thrilled, as she just could not contain herself on Twitter: “I must say I am very happy too that @neneleakes and I had a heart to heart! We made a pact!” And we’re sure that pact has nothing at all to do with ratings.

A-Rod’s Salary is Higher than the Entire Houston Astros Roster Combined!

Posted on March 29, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The Houston Astros will open the season this Sunday, making their first appearance as an American League team after switching from the National League during the offseason. While the switch allows them an extra hitter in the form of a DH, nobody expects that to matter. Why? Because the Astros have the lowest salary in baseball. Their salary is so low, in fact, that injured third baseman Alex Rodriguez is making more than the entire team in Houston! And he may not even see the field this year! Yikes! A-Rod is the highest-payed player in the Majors, and he plays for the New York Yankees, who have had the biggest salary in baseball for fifteen years running! In fact, the Yankees have four of the top six highest-payed players on their roster, with a projected total salary of $228 million, compared to the Astros’ measly $25. The Yankees tried to void A-Rod’s contract of $29 million per year after he was under investigation for PED use. But that didn’t happen, and now Rodriguez is on the disabled list while his hip surgery recovery will keep him out for at least half the season. So the Yankees are paying almost 10 times more for their team than the Astros! Is this getting out of hand? Should Major League Baseball finally institute a salary cap?   Heck yeah, level the playing field a bit! No way, the more you pay, the better you play! View Poll »

Wife of Justin Bieber Accuser Slams Singer as Enabled "Punk"

Posted on March 29, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Justin Bieber has millions of fans worldwide. But the wife who has accused Bieber of battery is most definitely not among them. With multiple sources claiming Bieber spit on neighbor Jeff Schwartz because the two were arguing over his dangerous driving habits, Schwartz’s wife has talked to TMZ – and totally slammed the popular artist. “He’s a punk. He thinks he’s invincible,” the woman says of Justin .”He can’t continue to have a bunch of enablers around him.” Adding that Bieber has not apologized for the incident, Suzie Schwartz added: “Spitting on someone is unacceptable. He can’t do this to people.” Those close to JB deny the hocking of any loogies, but a landscaper across the street from the confrontation has backed up the neighbor’s account.

CBS Analyst Apologizes for Random Race Comment

Posted on March 29, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Under fire from the Twitterverse and other TV analysts, Doug Gottlieb has issued an apology for his “white man” joke last night. The former Oklahama State point guard was discussing the NCAA Tournament with four African-American colleagues when he quipped that he’s just around to bring the “white man’s perspective to the set.” The line didn’t exactly go over well, as you can see in the following video: Doug Gottlieb White Man Joke At first defending the line as a “joke,” Gottlieb was forced to be a bit contrite after criticism poured in, most pointedly from ESPN college football reporter Mark May, who Tweeted that Gottlieb should be “canned” and added: “That type of comment is ment (sic) for a bar not a national stage.Nice job Gottlieb I hope all the kids 12 and under didn’t hear it!” Charles Barkley later interrupted CBS’ coverage of the Sweet 16 to stand up for his embattled co-worker, telling viewers on air: “All those people on Twitter who are going crazy, which I would never ever do, listen me Kenny, Greg Anthony, and Greg Gumbel didn’t take that personally so all you people at home who’ve got no life who are talking bad about Doug Gottlieb get a life. It’s no big deal.” Through the network, Gottlieb then issued a terse statement: “It was not a smart thing to say and I apologize.” Seems like enough, right? We can all move on with our lives now.

New Dolphins Logo: Leaked! Sleek!

Posted on March 27, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The NFL’s Miami Dolphins have a new logo. One they meant to unveil April 25 but leaked. Dolphins CEO Mike Dee made it official Wednesday, saying that the logo that has made the rounds on Internet in recent days is the real deal: Over the weekend the logo was leaked when one of the team’s players was wearing a T-shirt with the new design in a Twitter pic. Ah, the Digital Age. Also on Wednesday, the NFL’s official website accidently posted the new logo on its “Predict the Draft Pick” page. That page was quickly taken down. Featuring a meaner and sleeker looking dolphin, the logo is still similar to Miami’s traditional look as the marine mammal is cascading across a sunburst. Whether it will help them swim past New England is another story. New logo or not, Ryan Tannehill is still the one wearing it when he lines up under center.

Catherine Guidici and Sean Lowe: Is It Over Already?!

Posted on March 27, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Just two weeks after we saw Catherine Guidici and Sean Lowe get engaged on The Bachelor, the two are already on the rocks, according to a new report. If Life & Style is to believed, they’re officially DONE. They haven’t looked unhappy in the least at any point we’ve seen them, but the seemingly over-the-moon couple was allegedly in tears at a trendy nightclub. After a blowout fight last weekend, their relationship is totally kaput … at least if you believe this celebrity gossip source, which we are not inclined to. Don’t get us wrong. We buy that Catherine Giudici and Sean Lowe are already fighting now that they’re back in the real world. And that the odds aren’t good. Simply put, The Bachelor ‘s track record would not be something to bet on. Especially if one half of the duo transitions to Dancing With the Stars right away. But regardless of whether Sean Lowe is a diva who’s let fame go to his head, there’s nothing of substance to support they broke up. At least not yet. These things have a way of fizzling once the show ends, but they clearly do have chemistry and like each other. A split this soon would be pretty shocking. Will they make it to the altar? That’s another story. Share your comments and vote in our poll below: Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici: Will it last?   YES. You can just tell. They are made for each other. Maybe … not convinced, but not writing them off. No chance. I don’t see the connection! View Poll »

Lindsey Vonn Dated Kris Humphries Before Tiger, May Be Cheating With Him Now, Reports Say

Posted on March 27, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Did Tiger Woods steal his new girlfriend, Lindsey Vonn, out from underneath Kris Humphries of all people? A new report in Us Weekly implies exactly that. Yes, if this is to be believed, Liger was almost Lump. The new issue of the celebrity news magazine claims that Kris Humphries , Kim Kardashian’s infamous ex, was very much in the picture with Vonn romantically. That is, until Tiger Woods came along. “Tiger wasn’t her only suitor,” the mag says, quoting a source close to Vonn. “Bachelor No. 2 was none other than Kim Kardashian’s ex Kris Humphries.” Lindsey Vonn and Humphries are both from Minnesota and have a lot in common … but there was never any report of them being together at any point. In any case, Vonn was warned about the perils of getting involved with Tiger, but their friendship developed over several months and then turned romantic. Earlier this month, she announced that she is in fact dating Tiger Woods . Woods, who recently reclaimed his title as the world’s #1 golfer, is clearly in a good place these days, both on and off the golf course. But will that last? Not if a second report is to believed. Star alleges that Lindsey and Kris are still hitting it – behind Tiger’s back! After their infamous Facebook PDA too! A fake romance that fizzled and was then rekindled? That’s a new one. According to that tabloid , Kris remained in the picture even after Lindsey chose Tiger over him, and they’ve been doing the horizontal slalom on the sly. Hilarious as this story would be, we just don’t buy it. Kris is too busy traveling with the Nets and harassing Kim with legal papers. He’s also a douche. As for Woods, you tell us: Is Tiger a changed man?   I think so. Give him a chance! I think not. Once a cheater … View Poll »
