Jesus, Takeda is right.

Do you know how much sports I watch? Zilch, zero, zip. Nada. I could care less about ANY pro sports players. It's just more celeb worship in my opinion. So the guy plays a ball game.... big deal. I have always found ball games, about as much fun as watching nascar, which in turn is about as exciting as watching grass grow.
In nascar, they go around in a circle, and around, and around and around and around, ad nausem. In ball games what do they do? From one end of the court to the other, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth ad nausuem. About the only sport's i found even remotely interesting is hockey. At least then a fight or something exciting can happen. If i was to watch hockey, thats all I wait for, because the rest is just back and forth, back and forth...
borrrrinnngg.....
So, combine my complete lack of interest in sports, with a complete lack of interest in what some dude I don't know, have never met, nor will ever see, want's to do in his bedroom, and but that on the front page. What reaction do you expect?
EDIT:
As i've said, I find the whole thing very petty and unimportant. The world is a crappy place. Always has been, always will be. There's always something to worry and concern ones self about - but some ball player coming out of the metaphorical closet isn't one of them. I don't concern myself with such petty things. Never have, never will. What i want to see on the front page is news that matters. Things that effect our jobs, government, economy, the nation at large, foreign policy, things of that nature. If ball player Z comes out and say's he likes gender X, is top news and very important to you, then you must have a very sheltered view of the world.
