But, when I pulled the complete text, the first thing out of his mouth was "I'm not gay", which is a good denial. I still thought though that it is present tense, just as you said. I don't know how I would have worded it had I been the one making the press conference. I would have said, I'm not gay too - first thing. I guess we can safely say he is not gay now. That's it. End of story!

I don't see a need to address it any further. I deny those rumors. I don't know how they got started. I don't know why. I don't know where. But obviously, these things do not apply to me at all.<br />I can't control what people think. I can only say what I know and what the truth is, and that's that I'm heterosexual and I date women. That's it.

I even compared the "gay" situation to the 70's with my brother in law breaking the news to me, a pre-teen, that the Village People were gay. How could that be?! Please for my peace of mind, did Mike make a reliable denial?<br /><br />So, I am sharing a few comments that Mike Piazza made regarding the "gay" rumors. I don't know if he made a reliable denial, in fact, now with my itsy bitsy knowledge on SA, I will venture to say there was even an embedded admission.<br />Link:<br />http://www.glaad.org/blog/mike-piazza-discusses-gay-rumors-new-memoir<br /><br />In the new memoir Piazza states that if, "I was gay, I'd be gay all the way".<br /><br /> he actually went so far as to host an impromptu press conference to publically affirm his heterosexuality, in which he stated, "I can only say what I know and what the truth is and that’s I’m heterosexual and I date women. That’s it. End of story". C5H11ONOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01081979197453633522noreply@blogger.com
