People like Fujita -- brave people -- are attempting to make the issue a non-issue for when that day comes.

Thus the "news" article becomes an opinion piece.

Each time this guy is on the receiving end of an especially hard hit, the media will speculate about him being targeted by the other players.

If you come out, it’s going to be a Terrel Owens type distraction from your team. And the entire team is going to blame you. So if you do come out, you better be irreplaceable.

And NEVER get in a situation where a team loss can be blamed on your blowing a big lead, by blowing coverage or blowing an assignment or blowing a play.

"I honestly think the players of the NFL have been ready for an openly gay player for quite some time now,"

Every stadium needs a tackling dummy, homosexual or otherwise......

Why does anyone need to know what anyone's sexual preferences are unless you're a high profile homosexual who uses that advantage for trolling purposes........?

A more offensive article in today’s Washington Post by Cindy Boren equates this to the civil rights struggle in this country and any player who would come out to Jackie Robinson. Pure BS.

Surely that's a "safe" environment in which to come out..

He wants it to end.

For him the end is always near.

Is that "tackling" or "tickling"?

Why are 50% of news stories about faggots?!?


Distraction from the deteriorating state of Western economies. Keep us agitated over trivialities while the looting goes on.

Sounds about right. Couldn’t they do something better though, like something with hot models or breast implants?
