Rajon Rondo Says He Did Not Mean To Offend Anyone When He Called Gay Ref A ‘Faggot’
Disgruntled Sacramento Kings point guard Rajon Rondo was suspended one game after receiving two technical fouls during his December 3rd game against the Boston Celtics in Mexico City. It wasn’t the technical fouls that earned Rondo the day off, it was telling ref, Billy Kennedy that he was a “Motherfucking faggot. You are a fucking faggot, Billy,” for giving him the first technical foul. This is compounded by the fact that the referee on the end of Rondo’s verbal abuse IS gay and officially came out a couple of days after the whole ordeal. Rajon then released a statement to absolve himself of his actions on Twitter:
My actions during the game were out of frustration and emotion, period!

They absolutely do not reflect my feelings toward the LGBT community. I did not mean to offend or disrespect anyone.

Oh really, Rondo? You didn’t know the eighteen year NBA basketball ref wasn’t gay? The one who has refereed you countless amounts of times? And you didn’t go out of your way to call him a faggot? And you didn’t mean to offend anyone?
You did, though. If you want to be a man and apologize for your transgressions, then apologize for them honestly. Say you meant to hurt and offend Billy Kennedy. In NBA circles, it wasn’t much of a rumor that he was gay. It was more common knowledge to most. Just come out and say you were angry, frustrated and wanted to go for the jugular. He made a call you didn’t agree with and you threw a hissy fit like a little girl, like you always do, and thought justice was saying something back to upset him; make him feel like his officiating made you feel. Don’t feed us this bullshit. We all know what you meant and if you want forgiveness, you need to recognize what you did on that basic level. Until then, everyone should forget your stupid tweets that your agent probably crafted for you and treat you like a bratty homophobe. Saying you didn’t mean to offend anybody when you definitely meant to at least offend one very specific person is garbage. You’re an asshole Rondo and everyone knows it except for you.
This is what happens when you don’t have Kevin Garnett around to keep Rondo in line. Even though, now that i think about it, he probably learned it from KG himself.
