The point Athlete Alley and Taylor are missing is the coming out news belongs to the athlete coming out. Not the community, not the team, not the coach, not the advocacy groups. The news belongs to the athlete and no one else, ever.

I hope the Scotchguarded those pants. They are going to get fondled. A lot.

Good news from Mr. "small strong black son" he doesn't have a kid.

I was a bit more subdued. This was the start of a 30+ hour trip.

I think they are setting up a transfer of control to her. California is a Community Property state. I think that means she owns half of the team since he bought it while they were married. He is probably going to sign over control to her and continue pulling the strings but behind the scenes.

I was once passed by Steve barreling down the sidewalk on Market Street in San Francisco on his Segway wearing an orange safety vest. I swear that Segway was souped up. He was really moving. Well not really. He was leaning, but the Segway was moving ultra fast.

I appreciate your feelings. But I'm 53. The change that has happened in my lifetime in the US is massive. It is all small steps.

But what is your alternative? Letting it slide? Letting homophobic language go unchallenged is what is happening in Russia and Nigeria. If people learn they can't get away with stuff like this, they also learn to not even propose hateful laws.

The kid is 17, made a sensible but negative comment, and a grown man responded by posting fag contents on several of the kid's photos.

Hate has to be learned. If kids don't see hate, or they see it challenged everytime, they don't learn it. Call it out.

I gave you a star for "clamber". As a gay -non-sporting type- boy, I identify with Eliza. Poor, poor girl.

Drawing a dick somewhere you shouldn't draw a dick + cricket. Andy will probably get 30 minutes of material from this incident.

The tweet and the photo are both deleted.
Here is a photo of the message from another site.

Didn't find the tweet.

Did you see Olga Graf speed skater? It's hot in Socchi so at the end of her race she pulled the zipper down on her suit. No shirt, no bra, nothing, just bare skin from neck to navel. She realized it before there was any slippage.

WTF? That clip cut off right at the good part. Michael Ontkean skating around wearing only a jock.

The only reason I knew the melody for that:

If I ever had to go down a luge, I'd have my hands in my underwear holding my banani and coconuts.

Friends and Family of the performers come to the dress rehearsal. At the LA Olympics, my roommate was one of the pianists playing Gershwin and I was able to go to the dress rehearsal.

The strongest part of the anti discrimination statements came after the part that was cut. That cut out part also included the thank you to the volunteers. That really sucks. These events don't work without the volunteers. The big wigs get paid big bucks. The only thing the volunteers get is the thank you and they cut…
