Who cares who this guy bangs? Does who he is sexually attracted to affect how he plays the game? No? Then why does it even need to be brought up?

Why do these people think we want to know their sexual appetites?

He probably doesn't announce it either.

Anyway, Collins announced it for his own personal gain and to make a spectacle of himself.

Wow, a mind reader.

I'm thinking of a number from 1 to 10. What is it?

They got that wrong too. Marion Motley was in the NFL a year before Robinson joined MLB. They just don't care.

I can't wait till a time where we aren't talking about homos. Better yet, it'd be nice if they can pin down what goes wrong in the brain exactly to cause this so they could cure it or prevent it some day. Like it or not, its a miswire in the brain. Sure these people can't help it, but it is absolutely an abnormality.

If we're going to "fix" something, let's start with pedophiles, murderers and politicians (okay the last one is a joke) If we're going to worry about "miswired" brains there are people who pose an actual threat to other people. It would be foolish to waste time, money, etc on "fixing" something that doesn't hurt anyone.
