And I’m gay.” in the May 6, 2013 issue of Sports Illustrated. I am one of the few broadcasters on radio or television [...]

I am straight. There I said it. I came out. I announced it to the world. No one cares. But when the first active male professional athlete comes out and announces he is gay, the world will care. I suspect the news will be met with joy, pride, excitement, relief, anger, hatred and confusion. It [...]
