If you'd like to attack the sentiment, a better tack would be to point out that 'no they are just friends' is most often said by someone defending a canon friendship from someone who IS homophobic and has mistaken the characters for a couple, and you can go into all the implications and repercussions of that.

...No It isn't. Most of the time it's used by people that think that gay relationships are a taint in the special deep manly friendships. If you need an example you can simply take a look at the moronic answers below.
The existence of a crapton of heteronormative TV doesn't suddenly make it not true that people slash characters that aren't seen by their creators as couples.
Except no one is saying they're couples. That's the point! The creators evidently are using homoeroticism as a way to grab attention but then avoiding following suit with it because they don't wanna show icky gay men on TV. That is homophobic behavior and it does generate a casual homophobic attitude among the viewers, to the point where it's common to think that a show is only okay if it's gay up to a point, if it goes past that it spoils.
