Good thing everyone is hyperfocused on Boston today.
Also, better for these things to break late on a Friday. Come Monday, it'll be alright.
By Jove, I think you're right.
...unless USA Today carries it Monday since the weekend edition is already out.

Black folk have about zero tolerance for gay people.
Yep. As much as homosexuality is demonized in general, it is magnified in the AA community in my experience. Its a combination of culture and the black community being by far the highest percentage christian of any group in this country.

It's building steam. ESPN will have it before the day is out.

Yeah this story will likely go viral. Which is why I said that Blue was ignorant to not consider that his statements would lead to this.

Seen just one tweet about it so far.
@collegefootball had a link about it.

Lastly, can anyone translate what Miles actually said?

Yeah, that was pretty good.

OP was worth the effort just to tease out that dog bark.
More cowbell, please.

The Daily Reveille, LSU’s student newspaper, talked to several LSU football players and asked their thoughts about having a gay teammate. The responses, as one could imagine, were diverse.
AKA we don't want to make anyone look bad so we're gonna censor the more extreme responses.
Meanwhile MaroonNation just lays it all out there for anyone to read.

By dumbass you mean he disagrees with your sentiment?
Give me a break. What Blue said was ridiculous and ignorant. He didn't say, "I don't approve of a gay person's activities / lifestyle" which wouldn't have been a big deal. He basically said gay men are little boys / sissies and that they can't play football as well as straight men.
You can't see that is utterly ridiculous notwithstanding what you believe about the moral right or wrong of being gay?
Sometimes what people say is just stupid because of content or context, and what Blue said fits the bill on both.

LSU SID office not real happy with the student newspaper.
ETA: Thanks 1999 for compiling this on the Rant.

@Rome_TDR @benlovetsd it might also be added that in true Reveille form they did not request any players that day while rest of media did

bill needs to have a come to jesus talk with them after this.
talking to players is a privelage not a right.
if reveille can't follow rules like everyone else they need to gtfo.
reading some of their reporters comments on twitter they think they're the shite after all of this.

Reveille makes their own rules.
I like the SID's usage of the phrase "out of the blue". That was a nice touch.
