Just as Jason Collins, a veteran NBA player, announced he is gay, a hall of fame for gay athletes and allies launched in Chicago.

Certainly Jerry Sandusky will be in the first group of inductees — part of the Hall of Flame's pedophile / pederast wing.

The “hall of fame” is being opened in an abandoned phone booth. There’s plenty of space to sublet.

Why do we need to know about what this guy, whom I’ve never heard of, does in the bedroom? What happened to the days of not airing your dirty laundry and keeping your sex life private?
