Polish soccer goalie Arek Onyszko gets my vote for Sports Idiot of the Year. He was released by his previous club in Denmark after spending time in jail for assaulting his ex-wife. He got a second chance from FC Midtjylland, another Danish club, which warned him to not continue writing a book he was working on. He ignored that warning and finished the book, called “F-king Polack” In it, he professes his hatred of gays. From Pink News:
“I hate gays, I really do. I think it’s f**king disgusting to hear them talk to each other as if they are girls. I can’t be in the same room as someone who’s gay. Look at them kissing each other – it’s sickening.”
He also likened gays to “vomit” and attacked female sports reporters.
Asked why he hated gay people, Onyszko said his Catholic beliefs made it impossible to “accept those kind of people.”
Onyszko was offered another job with a Copenhagen team, but that was withdrawn after the team’s chairman discovered what was in the book.
Sports by Brooks says that Onyszko would be luckier if he was an American athlete:
If this were America, of course, he’d just go into rehab for alcoholism or something or other then issue a non-apology that says he never meant to offend anyone and we’d all go off on our way. Fortunately, we’re to be spared that charade.

What a waste of human life.

Another ignorant professional athlete. There seems to be no shortage.

He just needs a nice fatty up the ol’ caboose! Then he’ll be a born-again Catholic.

Sweet Jesus………..I just googled this dude and he is beyond hot. He’s a fucking asshole but incredibly hot looking.

He’s so macho drag http://media2.avisen.dk/GetImage.ashx?imageid=219844&sizeid=4
and Euro-gay http://images.fyens.dk/73/516773_640_450.jpg
His problem seems to be with effeminate men rather than “gays” per se.
As soon as he meets the right “masculine” guy he’ll convert.

A hologram of the Catholic church itself — unapologetically obnoxious.

Looks like skinhead trash to me.

mdterp:
Are black, Latino, and Asian dudes who shave their head (a very common and popular look) also ’skinhead trash’ or only white dudes?

John in Boston,
How sad it is that you think such a vile creature is “hot.”
Have you any principles?
on Nov 4th, 2009 at 8:15 PM
@ John in Boston….ummm…since when were Blacks, Latinos, or Asians ever skinheads?

@ John in Boston:
Race baiting much? I bet your white hoods are so pointy and dainty.

I actually like that he dares to say it directly. I think its disgusting to see men kiss each other…its UNnatural…
Now…just like him I would never ever shout or yell after anyone. I would never be violent towards any groups of people actually.
So no one can change the fact that some of us feel that strongly about it.
We have the right to express our thoughts like we do…as long as we dont condone violence towards gays.
Long live freedom of speech!!!

Will all you defenders of “free speech” chill?
No one is saying that this goalie moron on anyone else does not have the right to say anything they want. But there are consequences and I have the same free speech rights to say he’s a moron, twit, dickhead, caveman who hopefully will never be paid to play soccer again.

Yes, and again you way of speaking speaks for itself. Thats exactly what I mean. If those of us who does not agree with you – you use names and try to demean that person.
Thats a loosers behaviour that does this. No respect for those who are in opposition to you as gay people. I feel sorry for you actually
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:52 AM
BTW…he didnt boast of it…he just expressed his feeling about it!!!
on Nov 10th, 2009 at 8:55 AM
Plus he said he would NEVER be violent to any of these gay people if he was going to see them on the street – thats why I respect him!!!
I respect him, in contrast to the gays/lesbians who do not accept that others do not feel the same about gay/lesbian marriage.
Only respect people who knows how to behave nicely and respectful even you dissagree!!
