Lemonade. I Make It.

Minnesota Vikings punter alleges he was fired by a ranting bigot:
If, per Kluwe's claim, Priefer said during an official team meeting that "[w]e should round up all the gays, send them to an island, and then nuke it until it glows," that's probably something NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell might want to talk to Priefer about...as he's suspending him, if that's possible.

As you already know I like to make lemonade out of these things, so might I take this moment to point out that the coach's words reminds us of one of the best lines in recent cinema history?

GAY MAN: Great outfits, you guys just come from a City Council meeting?  Or you just trying to score with the bridge and tunnel crowd?
STEVE: You know what they should do with you guys?  They should put all of you on a fucking island somewhere.
GAY MAN: Yeah? Well, guess what?
STEVE: What? 
GAY MAN: You're on it!
