Peop...Nor does it mean he's telling the truth. <br />People believe what they want to believe. <br />That sort of exact quote coming from a meeting two years ago in a single source story from a source who admits his agenda upfront in a story like this is dangerous journalism. <br />It's amazing how many reputable news sites picked up this hearsay quote - inadmissible as evidence in a court of law, BTW - as truth. Would the NY Times, SI, ESPN, The Boston Globe, Chicago Tribune, Washington Post, etc.... have used that quote in their story, or run Kluwe's letter - without trying to verify it, or at least asking Priefer for his side? <br />Captain Ramiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01814690862778737679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711972915079022307.post-38682015981878835082014-01-05T18:25:28.775-05:002014-01-05T18:25:28.775-05:00Anyone who verifies that quote knows it could impa...Anyone who verifies that quote knows it could impact his career in some way. So I think it will be difficult to get independent verification. That doesn't mean Kluwe is lying.

They are nothing more than bullies. If he said it, he's nothing more than a child in a man's body who thinks he can say what he wants. It would interesting to see how he acted if he ran into a real group of people willing to fight for gay rights. Enough being nice.

It is defined WHEN two folks of the same sex engage in perverted sexual acts. Were sex not involved the relationship could not be homo-sexual. Homosexuality is defined by sex. Heterosexuality is defined by God.

Why is this? And shouldn't this be fairly easy to prove? Certainly there are several players in that meeting two years ago who could either say that Kluwe is truthful or he is lying. And some of those players are probably on another team or out of football and would have no fear of reprisals from the Vikings for verifying Kluwe's story.<br /><br />All I will say is that Kluwe seems to have manifest reasons to want to blame someone else for why he is no longer employed in the NFL. And judging by his previously well-publicized comments, he has no fear of speaking unwisely and outrageously. Before he is just allowed to ruin someone else's career, let's hear from those who can validate his story.Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15741966714510339124noreply@blogger.com
