Ft. Lauderdale, FL (February 15, 2007) - After learning of the remarks made by Tim Hardaway in a radio interview discussing Gays in the NBA, Trinity Sports and Entertainment Group, owners of the CBA Indiana Alleycats professional basketball franchise, spoke out today in reaction to Mr. Hardaway's statements.
"First and foremost, there is not a single person in our organization who supports or shares Mr. Hardaway's views," stated Demetrius Ford, Trinity CEO. "I speak for the entire organization when I say we are truly sorry for the harm caused to anyone by Mr. Hardaway's words. Effective immediately, Mr. Hardaway is removed from the position of Trinity Sports' Chief Basketball Operations Advisor, as well as all other duties associated with the Company, its affiliates and subsidiaries."
Trinity majority owner and NFL star Jay Fiedler added, "I was very surprised to learn of Tim's insensitive remarks last night. The opinions, views and remarks expressed by Mr. Hardaway in no way reflect my views or those of anyone else in our organization, and we want to make that clear to our corporate partners, the CBA and all the fans of the Indiana Alleycats. Mr. Hardaway was instrumental in the startup phase of our basketball operations, but we must now move forward without his services or any association with him whatsoever."
