Jiri Tlusty hasn’t been getting a lot of press with the Toronto media, mostly because the versatile forward hasn’t done much for them. (Neither has anyone else.) The celebrity media, however, is begging Tlusty to “come out of the dressing room” following the release of a few photos. The first shot shows a drunk-looking Tlusty tonguing a guy (see below). In the next batch of photos he appears sans pants (uh-uh. Not here). First broken on IsThisHappening.com, the story was also posted on PinkIsTheNewBlog.com, which gets a shit-ton of hits (Canadians: that’s “shit-metric tonnes”). Both sites posted shots of Tlusty with his little goalie hanging out, purportedly shot with Tlusty’s own camera phone for a girl he met on Facebook. We can’t write shit this good, people. If you’ve read the archives, you already know this. Anyway, IsThisHappening was soon hit with the lawyerly word scramble below.
Hiring lawyers to scare others into denying your gayness is not the answer. Because Tlusty is probably not gay. And he’s probably not going to help the Leafs this season. But he should probably avoid the camera for a while.
