Collins averaged 1.1 ppg last season. A truly mediocre player.

No one fully understands modern versions of homosexuality and it is truly "bizarre" that society actually believes they fully understand the phenomena to any full degree.
You have a truly bizarre idea of human sexuality.

I do this every day with topics that I am not interested in.
I only have 250 channels. Believe me, I'm looking for a channel.

Obviously, this defection from heterosexuality is one more obvious chapter in the homosexual conspiracy to tear this nation apart and force everyone to accept a perverted lifestyle. Yes? No, I don't think so. For almost all of us, this should be a non-issue. Maybe now, though, professional athletes will be asked to take an oath ... gay? Or straight? Or .... if it feels good, just do it? Hmmm.

So...this is the only gay person in professional sports? What's your point, here?

Funny. I have only seen one short segment on this story or any gay issue all day. My TV has been on since I got out of bed this morning.

The day is coming when no one will care either way. There will be no podiums or rainbow flags. It will just be people's personal business.

Like this guy being put on the cover of SI. What a joke, he's done with his career and he was always mediocre at best. He would have never been put on SI for his basketball skills.

What a total joke, they are treating him like he's Jackie Robinson or something.

I don't understand why he felt the need to tell the world about his sexuality. If he wanted to share this information with people, Why didn't he just tell his family, friends and team mates? Why the need for the microphones and ESPN, CNN, MSNBC, FOX, ABC, CBS, etc cameras?
