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...

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?

But you are aware that sports is a multi-trillion dollar business? And pro-athletes are held up to a godly celebrity status? And that there's never been an openly gay pro athlete in the "big four" sports in the US?

You can't see how it's maybe a little teeeeny bit newsworthy?
