Kudos to Deadspin for catching this obviously well-balanced, well-intentioned Seahawks fan at a Seattle-based Pro-Prop 8 rally (actually, an Anti-Anti-Prop 8 rally, but who’s counting). The cop behind him is giggling for a good reason, as you can see in this picture.
Of course, I couldn’t begin to guess at the sexuality of anyone wearing a t-shirt with a red cross through the word “homo.” But I do have to wonder at the sanity of someone wearing a Seahawks hat and holding a sign equating “sports nuts” with “baby killers” and, via the Corinthians reference, thieves, adulterers and drunkards (and yes, those pesky homosexuals). Perhaps his sanity was pushed to the limit because, as you read this, Matt Hasselbeck just threw another interception.

Since homosexuality in birds is well-documented, this fan is even more confused!

Good comment Jim. You beat me to it. There is a ton of studies in peer reviewed journals that have observed or directly studied “homosexuality” in wildlife including birds. Gay wildlife (sea birds and song birds)(fish too) don’t necessairly hump as much as do not interact or breed w/the opposite sex of their species and pair bond with same sex.
Definately check out the link to The Stranger. The pics would be priceless if it wasn’t for the fact these bigots really believe this stuff. Danny Savage and his crew did a good job covering the Saturday ralley.
Seattle pro sports is cursed lately. Sexy Matt’s having a bad year too
Heck, the only thing I ever seemed to excell at was being a drunken aldulterer and sports nut homo. I dont kill babies or steal though.
