Marty Brennaman makes gay slur (or am I reading too much into this?)

    Helen Thomas got what she deserved. On a scale of 1 to 10, what Brenneman said is a 2.

    If the president of Marshall were a woman, it definitely would be a gay slur -- intentional or not.

    Since the prez is a guy, it comes across more that Marty is just a little fuddled from sniffing too much Ben-Gay in locker rooms over the years.

    I don't know why, but this had me rolling. Well done.

  6. Could we write a column about this snafu?

    I heard he also masticated in full view of everyone at the banquet before making those remarks.

    And at a dinner! That's disgusting.

    OK so the general agreement seems to be that I am reading too much into it.

    Yeah, no one's being called a confirmed bachelor.

    Yeah, probably just a strange use of queer.

    Billy Packer is just glad Brennaman didn't fag out on the appearance.
