An Open Letter from Tim Hardaway to the Public
Posted on February 21, 2007
Hey y’all, this is Tim Hardaway, checking in to clear my name. Y’all might’ve heard about how me and Dan LeBatard were talking about that gay dude from the Magic, and how I said some things about how I wouldn’t want no gay dudes on my team. Somehow, since then, the media’s got things all twisted and they’re trying to act like I’m some kind of hater, like I’ve got some kind of problem, know what I’m saying? And the thing is, I’m not a bad guy. I just wear my heart on my sleeve, you know, like I always did on the court, and you all loved me for it back then. So what’s the problem now? Why you gotta act like I’m some kind of monster?
Yeah, sure, I said I hate gay people. And then I said it again the next day. But, like I told some reporter yesterday, I only hate gay people like I hate broccoli. I mean, broccoli’s gross. Seriously, nobody likes broccoli, right? I mean, unless it’s covered in cheese or butter. Kinda like gay people. Nobody likes them, not even with butter.
See, that’s how I think on people. I kinda like compare them to foods, you know? Gay people are broccoli because they’re gross and you don’t like them and you only have to swallow it because they make you even if you don’t want to and you think it’s disgusting and evil.
Same kind of thing with Mexicans. They remind me of pizza, cause it’s everywhere, you know, but not all of it is good, and there’s some real nasty pizza out there. I’m a thin crust man, myself, by which I mean, I’m against illegal immigration and I wish they’d learn to speak English.
