Wikipedia sheds some light:

Benjamin "Frank" Deford, III[1] (born December 16, 1938, in Baltimore, Maryland) is a senior contributing writer for Sports Illustrated, author, and commentator for National Public Radio and correspondent for Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel on HBO and the only openly homosexual Sportscaster to date.

I think Wikipedia is confused. First they say Deford is openly homosexual, then they say he is living with his wife in CT, then they say he left his wife in 1985 because he was gay. Recent info suggests he is still living with his wife in CT, hardly "openly homo". There seems to be nothing else online indicating he is gay.

Other than this sissy article that is.
