Ex-NBA Star Hardaway: "I Hate Gay People"

1. Jocks are not very bright, who cares what this guy has to say about ANYTHING since's he's out of the league.
Guess this blows his chance at the "Hall of Fame."

3. I don't think there's anything wrong with what he said. It's how he feels and even if it's not politically correct, it's his opinion and he's allowed to have one.

Don't make more of this than it deserves TMZ.

4. Its a wonder grown men can't keep their opinions to themselves. So what alot of people don't agree with being a homosexual or like it but they don't necessarly need to air their opinions especially if they are in the public eye. Buy a muzzle if you can't control what comes out of your mouth.

5. this guy must think that all gay people want to have sex with him. that is why he is scared. i'm straight and i would'nt screw him! and he probably only gets p***y because he makes bank! in my eyes homophobes just love to think that everyone straight or gay wants to have sex with them. he'll be sucking dick for steroids one day. typical dumb jock.

6. If that's the way he feels he should be allowed to express it. I am so sick of people trying to tell other people how they should feel. Some people actually believe that homosexuality is immoral. What gives these bleeding hearts the right to tell them they are wrong? People should quit shoving their beliefs down other's throats. This is America and the last I heard we "are" still aloud to think what we want. Bravo to him for his honesty.

8. As the old saying goes: "The truth hurts - but, it's the truth!

He's not the first nor will he be the last to state to truth! There's are a lot of us out there too! (who feel the same) - so, we're homophobic - TOO BAD!!!

Live with it! We have to live with them around us all the time! We don't like it - but, we deal with it (like bums in the street and the daralics everywhere).

9. hardaway? sounds like a gay porn name to me! he's hiding something and using the homophobe attitude as a cover.

10. I don't like Black people and I don't like to be around Black people. I am Blackophobic ... [Black people] shouldn't be in the world or in the United States

11. Hey look. Why should he not be able to speak what he feels. He is not accountable to anyone that he doesn't want to be accountable to. If you are going to use Freedom of Speach, etc., to let gay people say what they want, then as an American he should be afforded the same rights.

12. I wonder what would have happened if some said...." I hate black people. I don't like to be around black people. I don't think that black people should be in the world or in the United States"...stupid people say stupid things....but then I guess he is entitled to his opinion, even if it is a pretty horrible thing to say. maybe he got hit too many times in the head with the ball. Any way...who is this guy ??

14. This is unbelievable! Do all famous people ride the short bus (as if I have ever heard of this idiot) ?

15. He has a right to voice his opinion ,It's called free speech, whether you agree with him or not.
