      USC makes some late recruiting moves and jumps to #10. Very impressive. Reports are that the NCAA will docket them one scholarship for each place they moved up.

          Missouri's SEC Defensive Player of the Year announced he's gay publicly today. He'll likely be the first openly gay man in the NFL.

                  ESPN is going all out - seems like 1/2 of each hour show is about this.

                    Is there anything ESPN covers that they don't go all out on? I guess with 24/7 to fill they have to do like a lot of media and kick up dust about all sorts of stuff.

                      ESPN is pretty brutal with things like this. This is very important news, yes. Shouldn't people highly in support of gay athletes being who they are, etc. want this to be small news or none at all? That's being treated like everyone else, is it not?

                      I understand this is the start of moving towards that attitude, but ESPN, just like everything else, is trying to find every little thing to talk about with a story.

                        That's ESPN. Nothing else to talk about, aside from the (NBC) Olympics.

                            I'm honestly worried the media circus will burn people out on him and hurt him more than it will help him. Last thing you want is to get the derp squad yapping "ENOUGH ALREADY!" Once they start, they don't stop.

                            Chris Warcraft has discussed this a few times. He thinks the biggest issue with gay players will be the front offices for this reason. Though there are plenty of gay-friendly executives out there, the second a player comes out the media circus fires up and he risks becoming a Tebow-esque distraction. Supposedly there are already several gay players who have gotten together and discussed coming out, but are waiting for the right timing and climate.

                            Suppose someone had to go first though, so it's not a big deal later on.

                              And I have no problem with this line of thinking by GM's. The media circus could be a serious distraction, and even if they have no issues with having a gay player, they most likely will have a problem with a player that brings the circus to town, for whatever reason. With that said, the kid is going to get drafted, so it is going to happen. Hopefully this is the big hurdle, and from here on we only get better about it.

                                Pretty devastating story in the New York Times about the rape investigation involving Jameis Winston at Florida State, or more like the lack of investigation. Heads should roll.
