Yoosta Be A Yooper: Izzo and Mariucci Aren't Gay? Really?

Detroitnews - It's well known Michigan State men's basketball Tom Izzo and former Lions coach Steve Mariucci are close friends. But the Iron Mountain, Mich., natives and former college roommates claim that at Northern Michigan, they often had to deny allegations, rumors and speculation they were more than that, they recently said in interviews with "Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel." The segment on Izzo airs at 10 p.m. Tuesday on HBO. "I think our parents wondered if we ever were going to go our separate ways," Izzo said, light-heartedly, in an interview with HBO correspondent Jon Frankel. Said Mariucci: "I swear to God, yes. People thought we were a little bit too close." For the record, both men are married with children. Izzo, 55, and Mariucci, 54, discussing their friendship -- and rumors it was more than that -- lasts only about 25 seconds and adds a humorous touch to positive story about Izzo and his basketball program. Mariucci said the rumors swirled during college because he and Izzo were inseparable. The segment claims they didn't date much and spent most of their time focusing on sports. Mariucci told Frankel he and Izzo were so close, they often were each others' dates at team awards banquets.

Well if this isn't just your everyday fluff story about not being gay then I don't know what is. And they can stop pretending like they weren't balls deep in each other all through college cause they both have a wife and kids. Last time I checked all these politicians who are trolling for cock in the bathrooms of airports were married with kids too. So Izzo stop slapping Mariucci's ass and concentrate cause you have a cock fight to win.

PS - Heading to Philly this weekend to eat cheesesteaks with Mallard. If I don't blog on Monday someone please call the authorities.
