John Amaechi, an ex-NBA player, recently admitted that he's gay. And? So what? Yeah, I'm with you on that response. It's only a big deal because professional sports players rarely (read: never) admit to being gay. At least in the United States. My guess is that it's the same in other countries. Anyway, ESPN asked some current NBA players to react to Amaechi's revelation (which will appear in book form in the coming weeks) and about having a gay teammate. The funniest/saddest response came from 76ers forward Shavlik Randolph:
"As long as you don't bring your gayness on me I'm fine."
That's Shavlik on the left, hanging out with Sean Dockery during their Duke days.
Stay hot, Shav. I suspect that Randolph and 76ers teammate Steven Hunter are closet lovers. Here is Hunter's quote:
"For real? He's gay for real? Nowadays it's proven that people can live double lives. I watch a lot of TV, so I see a lot of sick perverted stuff about married men running around with gay guys and all types of foolishness."
