TEAMS: Arizona Cardinals

About a week ago, former Jets and Cardinals safety Kerry Rhodes flatly denied rumors that he is gay to TMZ. This was done in response to a couple photos of him posted on the always reputable Media Takeout getting awfully familiar with another dude while on vacation. Because everyone knows if you ride the lazy river with another man, you’re totes gay. Anyway, turns out that other guy is Russell “Hollywood” Simpson, who worked as Rhodes’ assistant for some time. Simpson now apparently is shopping a reality show, so by no means does he have a motivation to drum up cheap publicity however possible. Nevertheless, it’s fun to read about how he claims he was Kerry Rhodes’ “wife” and everyone knew it. I was like his wife. I ran the household and took care of all his personal needs. If anyone needed anything from Kerry they came to me! That’s what Kerry loved about me. i didn’t take no sh*t from nobody. Kerry is kinda a dumb athlete, like a dumb jock. So, I took care of things that he didn’t...

Outing Safety Kerry Rhodes Just Isn’t Right

Via Player Perspective  |  April 18, 2013
I really hate seeing people’s secrets exposed. It feels filthy. It feels like you snuck into their room and read their diary or grabbed their phone and went through it before it locked. I’m an only child so privacy is really important to me and I don’t like people in my spilling my tea. And that’s why I’ve felt so sad this week seeing the private photos of Kerry Rhodes...

Can America accept gay NFL player?

Via Fox Sports  |  April 18, 2013
We're less prepared than an NFL locker room for an out-of-the-closet, gay football star. The "we" I'm referring to is all of us -- society at large. As verbally homophobic as a football locker room is, its level of intolerance doesn't compare to American society and social media.
