COME {Mc}FLY WITH ME! [PART 2?!?]

Who woulda thunk it??? If I knew there would be a part 2 to this, I would have included everything in part 1, however, it seems like there's a certain level of high sensitivity here that needs to be looked at.

Now, I'd like to preface this by saying TO EACH THEIR OWN and obviously, people are entitled to their own opinions. BUT with the decrease of common sense in today's world, I do feel that I can drop my two cents on this particular situation. Didn't I just say everyone's entitled to their own opinion??? I mean this is America right??? But I digress...

In today's athletic world of sports, especially basketball what's going on in this ad is what EVERYONE waits to see, a spectacular play and someone always gets the bad end of the deal. Whether it's the theft of a homerun, a teeth clacking hit in football or someone getting banged on in basketball it's that type of play that gets you out of your seat and remains fodder for conversation for a couple of days with your friends. So when you have a company selling a product that boasts a lighter weight to jump higher to (hyper)dunk on people now they're being accused of being homophobic? When it happens in a real game (see the previous post at the bottom) is the dunker homophobic? How about the dunkee?

With the issues that are ACTUALLY out there concerning everybody, how much sense does it make to spend this much time on an ad that has to do with basketball? If you think this ad is homophobic where is YOUR head at? How about this... change the thinking of society and this would NOT be thought of as homophobic, it would be thought of as what it is, someone getting dunked on. Focus on actual hate crimes, bad economy, actual discrimination whether it's blatant or undercover instead of a game.

Make this world a better place, for you and me...
