Yunel Escobar of the Toronto Blue Jays + high-res version

Asshole and idiot alert!

Baseball player Yunel Escobar of the Toronto Blue Jays write’s “you are a faggot” on his eye black.

He wrote “tu ere maricon” (sic) (translates to “you are a faggot”) on his face.

Escobar apologized and said “I have friends who are gay.” A reporter asked who, to which Escobar responded, “the person who decorates my house is gay … the person who does my hair is gay.”

The Blue Jays have reportedly suspended Escobar for three games. His salary and his salary for those games will be donated to GLAAD and the You Can Play campaign. Additionally Escobar will be working with GLAAD on that campaign.
