I wouldn't jump on Gutz too quick. Calling him a bigot based on a simple comment seems a bit of a stretch. We're judged everyday by the way we dress, act and talk. If you've heard GP speak on a talk radio show, or tv show, you might come to the same conclusion. His vocabulary is lacking, in a big way. American public puts these athletes on a pedestal based on nothing other than their athletic ability. If Gutz is turned off because of a person's vocabulary, or even just the way he talks, that's his choice and I wouldn't call it bigotry.

I watch many of these athletes being interviewed after games and every other word is "man". This while they're being interviewed by a woman. So, we should only judge them based on their athletic achievement and not their interaction with the public?
