Re: Roy Hibbert fined $75k for remarks
[QUOTE=Rik Smits' Hair]He didn't call anyone a homo. He used a phrase that a lot of people apparently don't understand[/QUOTE]
Ok this really has to be explained to you...Homo is a gay slur...he is no homo, meanimg he is not a home..This means he was referring to gay people as homos..Once again that is a gay slur..
This thread shows again how dumb many people are..

Who cares? :facepalm
The NBA's statement said he was fined for his remarks, it says nothing about gay slurs. They aren't about to start a national debate on homosexuality by defending such a stupid phrase like "no homo". At best it was a crude joke about butt sex, at worst it was offensive to gay people. Either way he shouldn't have said it, and he shouldn't have said mother fcker either.
Hibbert's statements have brought a ton of negative press to his team and to the NBA. If you think this fine is unfair you are a moron.

Homo is not a slur. Do you even know what the definition of slur is? How does saying the word 'homo' insult or damage the reputation of gay people?
Gay people ARE homosexual.
He wasn't being derogatory.
He didn't say, "Gay people are retarded." He didn't call anybody a homo.

Was thinking the same damn thing. What a player says outside of the game has NOTHING to do with the game yet theyre still fined for it for an amount more than 7X that of trying to CHEAT in the game.
If thats how they prioritize penalties, the only logical next step would be for LeBron* to either get a 100k fine for his flop or a suspension. Won't happen of course, cuz when LeBron* said 'no homo' nothing happened.
Absolute disgrace.

I am losing patients with you idiots. Homo has been used as a gay slur for decades..The two words that have most been used are homo, and ****..If you don't know this you must be about 15 years old..
Because in the internet age a bunch of non funny morons go around saying no home everytime they bring up something gay doesn't mean it isn't a slur and hasn't been for decades.
The ignorance of young people who spend their lives are the internet is scary...
Go educate yourself and do some research...Amazing..
If you want to write some gay groups and ask them or take the time to research go ahead..But stop with that nonsense that its not a slur..

Re: Roy Hibbert fined $75k for remarks
lots of homos in this thread.
Re: Roy Hibbert fined $75k for remarks
Why a guy gets fined when he stated that he's not gay and another guy being applauded for saying he's gay? Anyone has the right to say he's not gay!
