Then again, the Metco gorilla boys would, wouldn't they?

That would be an insult to gay men.

Ed. note: Post updated to reflect the fact that Felger was filling in for Callahan.

Seems the boys are avid readers of the Boston College student newspaper, the Heights, and they spent 15 minutes on Tuesday discussing an article on male friendships on campus. Only being the bottom dwellers they are, it was more like they spent 15 minutes thinking up ways to call the students quoted in the article "gay," as the Heights reports:

The commentators made a number of derisive comments about students who they specifically named on air. They asserted that the students are in fact homosexual and that the friendships they share with other men are not as they say. At one point, the commentator referenced a particular student, and, upon reading his name, said, "If that's not gay, I don't know what is."

And then, after their show was done, Dennis and Felger shared a manly chest bump and smashed a couple of beer cans against their foreheads.

Jessica Heslam reports. So does David Scott.

David Scott summarizes the whole thing.

Charles Foster Kane would have thought the last people to attack somebody over a botched joke would be Dennis and Callahan:

... You'll recall they are the geniuses behind the racist comments about Metco gorillas waiting for buses, but of course they say they were misintrepreted. So, since they're unwilling to believe Kerry was making a joke I don't buy their excuses either. Both of them are lying, racist, scumbags if one is to apply the same standard to them that they are now applying to John Kerry.
