Actor Mickey Rourke tried using a football situation to defend his constant use of the incredibly offensive, homophobic f-word.

TMZ reports:
Mickey Rourke randomly went on an expletive filled diatribe the other night in NYC, saying his much criticized use of the word last November had "nothing to do with gay" and explained, "punkass ... f**got .... it's the same thing, understand?" Somehow we don't think GLAAD will. Watch video here (WARNING: extremely explicit language).
