Phil Jackson with the "Brokeback Mountain" comment.


ESPN - NBA: Jackson's postgame remarks in poor taste - NBA

Phil should make a National Apology Tour of all the talk shows, like Dog the Bounty Hunter did.

I didn't see the movie.

Did it portray the people in question in a good, bad or real light (neither positive or negative light relative to the subject at hand, but just that it is reality).?

Thanks

If anyone saw it they probably won't admit it.

Jay Leno's done 100's of Brokeback jokes on national TV. Why does one comment from Jackson rate so much attention?

Why not?

Open minds make a better world.

OK..let's see how many open minds we have in here

I saw Phil's interview last night and I also saw the movie last year on HBO or something. (No I did't pay to see it either) I know what Phil meant and the reporters did laugh, but since this movies subject matter was tender, not sure why it's such a big deal?? Leno, Letterman, and Kimmel had a field day making references to the movie in 2005 and never apologized to anyone.

If you saw the movie "Good Luck Chuck" with Dane Cook and Jessica Alba, there was a lot of penetration in that one too , but I bet if he had referenced that movie or any other with alot-you-no-what the conventional way, the comments would have passed without anybody saying anything.

He has already apologized in the media on TV and I kid you not he said and I am paraphrasing it a bit.

If I offended anyone I am sorry and I apologize to any horses, children, cowboys or gays that I may have offended.
