Congrats to the Blackhawks for your crass and classless display of homophobia in your locker room the night of your Stanley Cup win.

Couldn’t agree more, but towards the end of your post when you say: “that’s lame” you are essentially doing the same thing to people of different ability levels. Language is a slippery slope.
True that!
You caught me!
Thank you for catching this! Love the hunk holding his oversized sliver beer cup.
Who is he?
Just curious, but do you have any proof that one of the Blackhawk players wrote that on the board? A lot of people had access to the locker room before, during, and after the game. In Chicago one of the best theories for how that got on the board is that Patrick Kane travels with a notoriously fun loving group of hangers-on (think Entourage) and one of them was having some not-politically-correct fun at Pronger’s expense.
am i supposed to be outraged? i agree the connotations of “that’s so gay” need to be considered, but i really don’t care here.
Nobody’s twisting anyone’s arm to care. When bigotry and homophobia happen to members of our community, noone is required to care. When cavalier bigotry turns into violence, noone is required to care.
But when that hate is turned directly at you, I’ll bet you’ll hope someone cares. I hope that others will care too.
