I guess, if you have anti-gay views, you can never hold a job or have a life, apparently.
From ESPN: The Human Rights Campaign blasted the New York Giants' hiring of David Tyree on Tuesday for his past comments in which he expressed anti-gay views.
Tyree, who was hired as the team's director of player development, said in 2011 that he would trade in his famous Super Bowl helmet catch if it would stop homosexuals from being married.
That same year, Tyree also put out a series of tweets saying, "there is no scientific evidence to support the claim of being born gay" and that he has met "former homosexuals."
According to the statement from the Human Rights Campaign, Tyree's claim "has been debunked and condemned by every major medical and mental health organization in the country, including the American Medical Association, the American Psychiatric Association, American Psychological Association, and many others."
"When did Tyree decide to be straight?" HRC president Chad Griffin asked in the statement. "The idea that someone can change their sexual orientation or gender identity is ludicrous, and the New York Giants are risking their credibility by hiring someone who publicly advocates this junk science. His opposition to basic legal equality aside, David Tyree's proselytizing of such dangerous practices goes against the positive work the Giants organization has done in recent years."
The Giants said in a statement Tuesday evening that Tyree "was expressing his personal view, and that is not the view of the Giants organization." http://espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/story/_/id/11249783/human-rights-campaign-blasts-new-york-giants-hiring-david-tyree
So, there are no former homosexuals out there. I'm pretty sure there are. While I believe many gays are born gay, others chose to be gay, for whatever reason. And if they can chose to be gay, they can chose not to be gay.
And why would 2-3% of the population have so much influence, or try to have so much influence on a hiring of an assistant football coach.
But apparently, according to this very liberal organization, you have to think like them in order to get a job.
What a pathetic bunch of Nazi like morons.
