NBA Player Comes Out

[GoMuskies]

John Amaechi played at St Johns in Toledo, where I went too, alone with BJ Raymond and the Sherrif. Was happy he came out and was forward about it.

I just wish he would have been less shitty at basketball.

At risk of appearing homophobic, I imagine the league will make sure a team picks him up next year.

For a guy with his stats, I imagine this is his best shot to stay in the NBA for another year.

not knocking the guy at all. It would take a lot of courage to do this.

It's only fitting that the first guy to come out plays for the team with the gayest name in pro sports. Man I miss the Bullets.

Couldn't agree more with D West. "I'm Black"? Really?

The motivation for Collins to include that might be that homosexuality is looked down upon more so in the black community than it is in other races.

"Hey look at me I'm a sexual devient. Isn't it great how normal this is."

It's sad that this is news. His sexual orientation has no effect on my life, but I imagine it would be difficult feeling like you have to hide this about yourself.

The MUCH bigger tragedy would be if he is deluded by society into believing that God doesn't have a problem with this.

Interesting tweet from David Freakin West on the topic:

My only issue with Collins is his "Im Black" buffer...

Yeah I didn't get that either.

Waggy, are you being serious? I honestly can't tell.
