First off, let me say this...Tim Hardaway had a right to say what he said, its called Freedom of Speech. Let me also say, that i'm sure he isn't the first: person, black person, or even the first basketball player to say that he doesn't like gays. In my opinion, the media sounds like they are on the John's side. Maybe if he didn't use the word "hate" then this wouldn't have been such a big concern. Overall, there seems to be alot of people pissed because he said this. But you know what bothers me? Why did John Amaechi have to come out and say that he was gay?? Couldn't he have kept his comments to himself. What everyone is forgetting, or maybe ignoring, is that he has a BOOK in STORES NOW!! I mean, I'm not trying to blame Tim Hardaway's actions on John. But how come when a gay comes out, its a big deal? It's almost like its celebrated that they have come out. Also, when someone says they hate something, they might just be saying they disagree with the basis of it.
