When will Craig James ever learn? Signs indicate: Never.
The retired NFLer already lost a Senate election in 2012 and was canned from his job as a commentator at Fox Sports (after just one episode) in 2013 for his extreme antigay views. Now, the 54-year-old went on Tony Perkins’ Washington Watch radio program to air his thoughts on gay marriage. And guess what? He still thinks it’s absolutely, positively Evil with a capital “E.”
“That’s Satan working on us!” James warned listeners, adding that anyone who supports same-sex marriage has a serious “problem with God.”
James also said that he’s deeply concerned about teams like the New England Patriots, the Tampa Bay Rays, and the San Francisco Giants, all of which have publicly voiced support of marriage equality. He fears this sort of tolerance could lead to an “implosion” in team locker rooms as it will intimidate homophobic players from voicing their hatred of gay people.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“If I were a current player in that locker room and my livelihood depended on me being quiet or losing it because of my belief system,” he said, “I’d worry.”
And with support for marriage equality at an all-time high, James also fears things are only going to get worse, much worse, for God-fearing people such as himself.
“There’s no avoiding this conflict,” James lamented. “It’s coming! We redefine marriage and with it everything else in society. It’s not so much about the marriage altar, this redefinition of marriage, it’s about altering all of society.”

Good! Society needs a good altering when it comes to equality for all.

I just love how all these straight men spend so much time thinking about gay male sex. I’m sort of flattered. But as far as them obeying God’s law, ask them about Lev. 19:18 and then wish them luck with Matt. 25:31-46. They will need it.

After seeing this guy’s picture, I just want to shout at him and say, “I hate you, and I hate your ass face!”

He’s probably wearing 6-inch heels under the commentating desk.

During a debate for a failed US Senate run in 2012, James claimed homosexuality was a choice.
According to The Washington Post, “James is doubling down on his viewpoint now that the New England Patriots, San Francisco Giants and Tampa Bay Rays have joined hundreds of other companies in signing a brief urging the Supreme Court to legalize gay marriage.”
There are over 300 companies signing the brief, including pro-sports teams, and that must have his own briefs in a twist. Even Fox canned him for his anti-gay views.
Oh, he believes that as a follower of Jesus Christ, he has an obligation to speak out about the evils of the homosexual lifestyle. Isn’t that nice.

Marriage was already redefined when fathers stopped trading their daughters for two goats and a mule…which still happens in places like Franistan and Alabama

This guy’s a dope and I think pretty much just ruined his credibility and integrity even more than he had before.
The only people that agree with him are the whack jobs.
Shame though. Aside from this funny picture, he’s actually a hot of a smokin hit daddy.
He clearly has issues and just needs a dick in his mouth.
TheNewEnergyDude
sorry…a bit of a smokin’ hot daddy.
Dammit, Queerty, where’s that “edit” button????

Wow I can’t post anything without it being marked for moderation. Ridiculous.

This guy is ugly nasty.
And his politics just show his ugly personality too. You can’t help someone this far gone. People like this make me more confident in my politics… some say I’m a soci-alist. So be it… better a soc-ialist queer than a right wing fat loser.

@Paco: Agreed. I hope he’s right. I’m all for altering all of society. It would be great to get rid of rape, child abuse, discrimination and the redistribution of wealth from the poor and middle class to the 1%.

Honey, it’s only coming AFTER you pay the rent boy.

I can’t stop laughing at the photo. He’s just another cartoon character Bible beater who obviously can’t keep a job.
@Large Marge:
He’d have to pay that rent boy plenty!
