what a dumb ass:
"The derogatory comments I made yesterday were a reflection of thoughts in my head, but they are not how I feel. It has taken me seeing them in print to realize that they are hurtful and ugly. Those discriminating feelings are truly not in my heart. Further, I apologize to those who I have hurt and offended, and I pledge to learn and grow from this experience."
what a b*tch move. full back-pedal. Comments thoughts that are in his head, yet that is not how he feels in his heart... blah, blah, blah.
With the way he talked, not what he talked about but his use of English...I don't think he has much of a future outside of football.
