Former NFL Super Bowl player Roy Simmons, right, who revealed that he is both gay and HIV positive, stands with civil rights attorney Gloria Allred while she speaks to reporters during a news conference outside the NFL headquarters in New York, Thursday, Feb. 9, 2006. Simmons and Allred are demanding an investigation into why Simmons was denied a credential to enter the NFL Media Center at the Super Bowl. (AP Photo/Mary Altaffer)

and by a stagering coincedence she has a brand new book out in stores now that shes pimping on all the talk shows.But im sure that has nothing to do with this grandstanding.Getting her name in the paper nationally at this time was just good luck on her part im sure /s

Maybe he was denied because he has a bee-atch for a lawyer.

Don`t understand, and I`m glad I don`t, but, why do these "I`m out of the closet" guys want all this attention?

He was denied because he was too particular about the Super Bowl seating.

He only wanted to attend if he could occupy a seat in the end-zone...

because he is gay and HIV positive.

Hmmmm... cause-effect scenario. And our govt. schools try to indoctrinate kids into such a deadly lifestyle choice. Do school administrators hate kids or what?!?

Gloria must have felt she was running out of publicity.

Roy Simmons...Roy Simmons...Remember this guy?

I read books by Dave Kopay (Gay Redskin RB in the 60s), and Dave Pallone (Baseball Ump in the 70s/80s).

Will Jim Edmonds and Piazza write books too? ;-)

Redskin LB Dave Meggyesy (sp) wrote a book about playing on drugs back in the 60s and 70s.

Of course there were Jim Bouton's 'Ball Four,' and 'I'm Glad You Didn't Take It Personally' (both p*ssers.)

Why is it while reading Gloria Allred's name, my mind reverberates with this chalk board related squealing sound?

Nope, and he's not listed in the ProFootballReference.com database either.

Jim Edmonds

You've got to be kidding? Man, I don't even want to know.

Bowl discrimination or bowel discrimination? I guess the guy does have some serious bowel problems.

As long as you're only sleeping, it's ok.

You are gay. You are dying from a self inflicted disease, because you are gay. On top of all that you hired quite possibly the second most annoying female on the planet to represent you?


Get a life.


Oh, that's right. Never mind.

Gaucho (Steely Dan)

I don't care what you do at home
Would you care to explain
Who is the gaucho amigo
Why is he standing
In your spangled leather poncho
And your elevator shoes
Bodacious cowboys
Such as your friend
Will never be welcome here
High in the Custerdome
