from flying bananas to fucking faggots..

no expletives were deleted..

dude... 


no doubt sean avery is an agitator.. on the ice, his role it to put you off your game.. he wants to win.. is he controversial? does he have a big mouth... believe it.. off the ice, sean avery is an attention/media whore.. he often says and does things that in hindsight he prolly shouldnt have...


what exactly did he say to wayne simmonds that was so bad that mr simmonds needed to respond in such a hateful fashion? well prolly never know.. but we do know how simmonds responded to mr avery, and im appalled and disappointed.. not surprised, but well... yeah..

i do know this.. you blew it wayne..

calling sean avery a fucking faggot just days after some douche threw a banana peel at your black ass is just bad form.. you blew it dude.. you really stepped in it...
if you and other not-so-white players really shouldnt have to resign yourselves to settling for the kind of racist crap that banana peel represented.. neither should the leagues closeted gay players and their allies have to put up with the kind of hate speech you [simmonds] spat at sean avery..

to be here now and having to answer the questions about 

what he did is disappointing for me, avery said.. i'm disappointed for him..

we were going back and forth for a while, simmonds said.. 

i don't recall every single thing i did say to him.. 

he said some things that i didn't like and i said some things he didn't like.. 

i can't recall every single word I said..

we were going back and forth, battling the whole time.. 

he definitely said some things i wasn't too happy about.. that's where it is..

it's in the heat of a hockey game, said simmonds, "that's what it is..

it's an issue that people are dealing with and trying to overcome, said avery.. 

i guess 10 years ago maybe it wasn't so much an issue, but it's certainly an issue politically, 

with people in the game, and just in life in general..

guys say stuff, it's the heat of the battle of the game, simmonds said.. 

it's not things said to hurt people.. sometimes it just happens..

both of you need to grow up.. this isnt high school or even youth travel hockey.. not that this racist/homophobic he started it, no he started it crap would be acceptable at that level either.. but gary bettman is no high school principal and you two are not teenage boys.. come on men.. cowboy up and show some respect..


occasionally, in the heat of the moment, the douche-baggery of the fans boils over and some dumb ass throws a banana peal at a black player.. last week it was directed at you.. but maybe your right wayne, maybe its nothing meant to hurt people... sometimes it just happens.. 

calling someone a fucking faggot is just so gay... wait, what?
