This Week In Sports: Another NFL God Needs To Start Talking, Another Commentator Needs To Shut Up

Two stories at opposite ends of the spectrum here...

First, now-former New England Patriot Brandon Spikes adds his name to the growing list of "men" whose only place left in society is behind bars.

Details of the story are sketchy, but they surround two accident reports on the same highway.  Spikes reported striking a deer somewhere on I-495 in Massachusetts.  The car was found abandoned -- with front-end damage -- on the Interstate Sunday morning.

That, of course, has it's own set of questions, but they became much larger after another accident report came in just up the road.  This report said that they were rear-ended by an unknown party who drove off.

Well, Spikes, at that point, shut up.  And, at that point, the New England Patriots promptly parted ways with him, adding his name to a growing list of players (which I should try, once again, to see if I can form an entire roster -- maybe two??? -- of such players)...

So he should definitely start talking -- if, to no one else, a lawyer...

And someone else needs to be talking about how this guy got home Sunday night if he just left his car on I-495!

This is in marked contrast to Bob Costas, who, for reasons he may or may not understand, needs to shut up about the ESPY Award for Caitlyn Jenner.

Costas, on "The Dan Patrick Show", stated that he felt that Caitlyn's Arthyr Ashe Award for Courage could well have gone to someone more connected to sports (hello Mr. Costas...  She was the 1976 Decathlon winner at the Olympics!!!) and that it was a Kardashian-level publicity ploy on ESPN's part as well.

Bob, shut up.  For two reasons.

The short answer as to the reasons is that you either out yourself as a transphobe (which would not be surprising, especially given that you were allowed into Sochi for the Homophobe-lympics, even with your strong political stands) or you have given the Bible-thumping assclowns in this country who are preparing to (QUITE LITERALLY!!) open fire on Caitlyn and other transsexuals (much less the Lesbians, Gays, and Bisexuals as well!).

I've heard a lot of jackasses question the courage of Caitlyn Jenner.

You do realize that, especially given her fame and the fact that she was the prototypical World's Greatest ("Male") Athlete in 1976, propelling Jenner to all types of fame, that she now becomes Public Enemy #1 of the Manhood and Homo- and Transphobia of America...

She living in California makes her a public target if this shithead in Huntington Beach has his way and declares open hunting season on LGBT's in the state (whether or not his "Sodomite Suppression Act" bullshit/death threats actually make the ballot or not!!!) if the courts allow said to even gather signatures later this year.

Even if you are completely correct about Kardashian-level publicity stunts and all such, you still give these feral animals (who should basically either be forced to grant equal rights to LGBT's or run for their very lives at literal gunpoint themselves!) fresh meat, and you expose yourself as a possible transphobe.

Bob, shut up.
