Dude you got it right the first time. He can say he didn't say it, but any lip readers no otherwise. Can't believe Harbaugh lies about this. Not even man enough to admit he used a slur.
apparently the coach cares. this is Harbaugh's official statement: I would like to state unequivocally the alleged anti-gay remark that some have attributed to me did not come from my mouth and any such assertion is hurtful to me, members of my family and the gay community. Those who know me know I never use slurs under any circumstances; the bias reflected by spiteful slurs is simply not in my heart.
but he is a real man. unlike you assholes who think saying f****t is ok.
freedom of speech does not protect anyone from reprisals. for example, most universities have instituted rules against hate speech by employees. while the coach may be allowed to call a woman or a man a non-gender-specific term like 'asshole', he may not call them dykes, faggots, kikes, wetbacks. niggers, etc. when a coach signs a contract agreeing to certain proscriptions, he is bound by his word. he can then be fired for violation of his contract.
Man what a freakout this video is (OH MY GOD HE MIGHT HAVE SPOKEN AN ANTI GAY SLUR) get a life its not the end of the world go worry about something worth worrying.
oh no what if a faggot heard the faggot word....move to san fran if you love the sodomites so much.
I agree with you. I'm glad that there are righteous people like us still around. Homosexuals are vile, depraved human beings, who are not fit to live in the same world as us God fearing Christians. Gays should be left to rot on an isolated somewhere. Amen.
Too many politically correct people in this country. He said faggot. Good on him, him and millions others use it to put down someone who is being a douchebag. Maybe all the pillow biters should worry more about their own lives and not about how people treat them.
No, people need to realize when they are model citizens and how they should act. People around the world are watching figures like politicians, celebrities, coaches, etc. Do you really want your children to be influenced by a hotheaded jackass with a short temper? People with fame and fortune neglect their social responsibilities.
Faggot has been used as an insult for a VERY long time... it referred to plenty of differant types of people. but i think that there is little doubt that it is most oftenly used as a common insult... not as hate speech
and NO these words do not lead to hate crimes.. the people who beat other people for stupid reasons would do so with or without a word like faggot. in a hundred years i think people will be even more "tolerant" of each other.. but the word will still be there.
"fucking asshole faggots" is what he said. i'm deaf, and read lips, and my cousin who watches football had me watch this... it's "fucking asshole faggots".
I am a gay man, and if he did use the word oh well. Means nothing to me, and it shouldn't mean anything to you. You should not let a word have so much power over your life, it is just a word. I don't even know the man, so I know he wasn't calling me a faggot, so why should I take offense. People are too sensitive for their own good.
Clearly the person who posted this video was mistaken and misguided.
And besides, even if Coach Harbaugh *had* said the f-word to the referee, WHICH HE OBVIOUSLY DID NOT, it is irrelevant. It's not like Mr. Harbaugh singled out and yelled gay slur at a gay guy.
signsofequality, next time do your homework in advance and don't jump to conclusions which might lead to someone's life being ruined and their career getting flushed down the toilet.
its ok to say any form of gay to anyone! if they take it wrong then thats their problem. it was there choice to be gay so they have to deal with people calling them gay
I completely agree with Teslastyle. Leave the man alone. Stop making false accusations about something you have no real evidence on. He's an awesome coach and doesn't need people spreading rumors about him.
found this link from a gay site, where they're pretty much up in arms about the idea that he said "faggot". thanks for taking the time to clarify and post your thoughts.
Yes, one meaning is a bundle of sticks but it's more appropriately means to tie up a bundle of sticks and then burn them. In that context calling FAGGOT to a person is a threat that you will tie them up and set them on fire.
The fact that you have to tell people what that means makes it compleately obvious that people dont MEAN that when they say it. if people dont know the defiition or never thought of it as a bundle of sticks for burning.. means they dont mean that when they say it
if people dont like gay people, they dont need a word to prove it. If people insult people with the word faggot, maybe they are simply insulting them with a word that is commonly used as an insult. (ass,jerk,idiot,fag= no difference)
i think this poster is completely off base... i don't think he used a f*cking assh*le f*ck it... i don't think he used the "f-word" gay slur at all... at the very least it is very much up to debate... irresponsible to try to lip read and jump to conclusions that could get a great coach in trouble.
Stanford Coach Jim Harbaugh should clarify what happened, and if he yelled "f****t", then he should publicly apologize to the LGBT community, and his public apology should be watched by as many people that watched this game. If he is a big person, he should also offer a gesture of support to the LGBT community. The LGBT community should also put lots of pressure on him to follow through with the above.
Congratulations you've just discovered the world of sports, and yes, people do swear. You want a coach to apologize for something he yelled in anger at a game?
Rather than demanding apologies for comments that someone made toward another individual, unaware that the camera was directly on him, how about expending your efforts productively and fight the people who actively trying to deprive them of their rights.
Why? Then shouldnt he apologize to the cows for saying bullshit? Or apologize to the ref and his butt for saying asshole?
Why is that any different?
Oh maybe because the good thing to do is pity the gays... ha right. Why dont gays just ignore the word faggot? why do they have to think it is associated with gayness? They can change that by ignoring it or something.
Really there is no need to apologize for this, if so, then we all need to apologize. to sex, butts, female dogs... etc.
It's hard to ignore the word FAGGOT when it's being yelled at you as you are being beaten and tied to a fence post like Matthew Shepherd or dragged behind a pick up truck like Brandon McClelland in Texas. Hate speech leads to hate crimes.
Dude you got it right the first time. He can say he didn't say it, but any lip readers no otherwise. Can't believe Harbaugh lies about this. Not even man enough to admit he used a slur.
