The Minnesota Vikings

If the team is employing a homophobe, it should fire him asap. I believe the former punter. If the former head coach was involved and the punter is correct, the asshole should come forward and back the punter publicly, or his ass should never get a job in the NFL again. The same goes for teammates of the punter who are now sitting with their fucking mouths shut, fucking inhuman cowards, no wonder they can't win shit.

1. What's a 'homophone?'

Is that the thing ET used?

2. The spellchecker got me, I wrote Homophobe, the SC doesn't recognize Homophobe,

it gave the option that I recognize and I hit the wrong button to accept instead of stay with the correct spelling.

5. Ah, blame it on the spell checker.:>)))

I agree with your post, though.....
Just pullin' your chain.

3. two words which sound too much alike, but are used to mean different things.

that sentence has 3 words which are homophones.

8. Being the nerd that I am,

I was bored while sitting on a deer stand a few years ago and started to make a list of homophones. So far, I have come up with 212 without looking them up. There are more of them than I thought there were, especiallly the non-obvious such as 'bust' and 'bussed'. There are far fewer heteronyms.

4. Kluwe wasn't a Viking when he was let go...

I believe he was playing for the Raiders at that point.

The Vikes did have a horrible season tho.

peace,

6. The Vikings cut him last May.

The Raiders signed him to a contract but cut him before the regular season.

The Vikings hired two outside attornies to do an investigation, one of them is a former atate supreme court justice. Basically, they will ask the long snapper and kicker if their coach said the things that Klewe claims. The kicker has already released a statement supporting the coach without confirming or denying Klewe's claims.
