Train Wrecks
Scott Thompson Sucks at Gay Softball Event

Exclusive: Scott Thompson"Kids in the Hall" actor Scott Thompson just blew it with the gays. Thompson performed at the Softball Gay World Series opening ceremonies in Phoenix last week, well, that is if you could call what he did a "performance."

According to our source, the comedian began bombing right after he dissed Kathy Griffin. You don't diss Kathy to the gays! He then went on to clear out the stadium with "lame vulgar jokes and even used the N word." At one point, he stopped his act and addressed a gaggle of lesbians that turned their backs to him, and said, "Thanks for turning your backs while I'm here actually trying to do something. Trying to perform!" Key word: "trying."

The next day, the Series Director sent out a letter of apology to each team that was subjected to Thompson's act, stating that comments "made by Mr. Thompson were not approved," and that they were sorry they "did not pull the plug sooner." Swing, and a miss!

61. To Petite- you wrote "I am not gay but I have plenty of gay friends and everyone who made a comment against gay people can go to hell right now.

"You are obviously not a Christian; Christians don't tell people to go to hell, but you're jackin a Christian belief and using a Christian reference. Odd..."

You obviously are not a SOUTHERN Christian. Down here if you don't believe what "we" believe what we believe then you are going to hell. This is how we get such a large following. We get them young, and imprint in their brains the values of close mindedness. We tell our youth and anyone for that matter, if they do not interpret the Bible the way we do, then you are going to hell. We use scare tactics to create the delusion of Spirituality. In reality you are just fearful of your "soul." Fear is a great way to control ppl, and The Southern Christians have been doing it for over 300 years. So remember we are the true Christians and anyone else who does not believe this is going to hell.

Please God, let the readers see my sarcasm.

62. I dont know why anyone is surprised about this outbreak of stupidity. Gay people can be just as stoopid and racist and ignorant as anyone else on the planet........and usually are. Gay communities are only a microcosm of the rest of the world, if not moreso. Please don't get it twisted. I've played on a softball team here in Chicago and we've attended this tournament in Phoenix several times. The point of having a gay league has yet to be defined to me. Other than yet another location for hook-ups for ever horny gay blokes, there is no real point. This is why I stopped playing with them several years ago. There is simply more to me and my life than who I might like to get off with. And Scott Thompson? please!! Is he really someone that is worth reporting on? He couldn't quite hack it as host of that gay wedding show on the Logo station, much less as a stand up comic. He is a nobody who shouldnt even come up on the radar screen. Save this valuable TMZ webspace for MORE Britney news!!!! Why would the tournment invite him anyway? Obviously, a shoestring budget was involved.....YIKES!

Look at the comments above by those saying they are Christian.

As a Gay Christian, I am told I am going to Hell everyday by Christians.

64. LOL!!! Perfectly written!! Sarcasm ROCKS!

Posted at 12:50PM on Oct 9th 2007 by Partier2 is MY god...

65. who cares...Scott Thompson is an ass wipe who probably is trying to get some press so he can his rent. why is anyone surprised. Gay people are just as racist, ignorant, and stoopid as anyone else on the planet, if not moreso. Someone mentioned GLADD. GLADD is just a gay version of some white straight country club. Where were all the people of color on the GLADD awards? Its racist, elitist middle age white men who wanna wag their fingers at everyone for making gay jokes. Kiss me gay ass, who cares!!

66. I am shocked at how much hatred is still out there towards gays. WAKE UP people! It's 2007.

Remember this: Whomever you hate will end up in YOUR family! So, for all of you "gay haters", I hope your children are gay!!!!!!!!!!!

And maybe then you will realize how ignorant you truly are.

67. I honestly do not have an opinion of Scott Thompson, positive or negative. Quite frankly I just don't care. His words and actions do not in any way affect my life. And for you who keep harping about haters, I dont hate people who are gay, though I do believe it's immoral and unnatural. For the record, I don't condemn anyone. That's God's place, not mine. We will all have to answer for ourselves one day.

68. "Despite what TMZ might think, the gay world is still not something most of us want to read about. I would venture to say very few people on this site care at all about gay issues or what the gays are 'up to' this week" -- Petite

I'm sure Petite is much more interested in gossip sites that tells us what the heteros are up to this week, which usually means who has: slept with whom, been a mess, broken up, gone to rehab, blah blah blah.

The gossip sites make the gays look like angels compared to "Straight Hollywood"

69. This is all a big, "So, what?" Yaaawwwwn.

70. You guys are freakin hillarious!
I especally loved the "Remember this: Whomever you hate will end up in YOUR family!"
Can you tell me how that works please, because I dont think I can wrap my brain around it... Anyway I dont know who this comedian is but some of you are saying "wake up it's 2007" Well guess what... it's 2007 the gays need to learn to take a joke... am I right?

71. : slept with whom, been a mess, broken up, gone to rehab, blah blah blah.

um...this is gay and straight... these things know no race, color or creed.. if you're gay you should know this... hot messes!

Posted at 2:07PM on Oct 9th 2007 by hELLLOOOO!!!???

72. I love Scott. I think he is hilarious. Glad he still has the balls to say what he wants. As for the offended crowd...TFS!

p.s. Kathy looks like a drag queen these days. Enough with the plastic surgery and botox. The only thing funny about her is her face.

***************************************

We hope that your children - should you be blessed enough to have one - will grow up to have morals and values.

75. Wouldn't you think a website like TMZ would have more free thinkers? Well it doesn't. Its the same mix of hateful bastards as anywhere else in the world. No, I don't think we in the gay community should bother with separte sporting events, which only serve as suggestions to straight folks that gay men & women can't play well enough for the "regular" teams. But, whether there are gay games or not - why do people insist on making such ridiculous comments specifically about being gay? I'm all for spicing up DULL websites with humorous commentary, even risque. But just plain hateful & dumb? ZZZZZZZZZZZZ...wake up people! You're more interested in the attacking Thomas for being gay, than you are for his outlandish use of the N word!
