Former SF Giant Aubrey Huff tweets homophobic rant in response to Pride hat controversy [View all]

SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — As the fallout from the San Francisco Giants’ Pride Night fiasco continues, former Giants first baseman Aubrey Huff has weighed in. Huff, who won two World Series with the Giants, took to social media a day after his former teammate Buster Posey refused to take questions on the matter from the media Tuesday.

“I can pretty much guarantee you I know exactly what Buster wants to say about having to answer irrelevant non-Baseball questions,” Huff’s tweet read in part — we are omitting parts of it because they are too offensive.

“You know how I know what he wants to say? Because it’s exactly what I, & most every single player, coach & front office executive who were part of the SF Giants World Series dynasty teams that brought the city 3 World Series titles in 5 years would say. And say confidently into the camera…,” he continued.

“‘I’m not wearing this gay bulls**t,'” he continued. “‘Queers don’t watch Baseball anyway. They watch The View, enjoy therapy,'” the tweet continued — again we are omitting some of the more offensive language.
