Featuring more kicks and body blows than your average MMA fight, watching the 2010 World Cup final felt more like watching an Eastern Conference NBA playoff game. In order to neutralize the Spanish attack, the Dutch were more physical than that creepy uncle who shows up at the family reunion. Good thing there wasn’t any scoring…I [...]

Our friend David Mixner wrote a posting on July 8 about the FBI files which were declassified and released in May which as David writes focused mainly on the Mattachine Society and its members. We all know, or at least should, how J Edgar Hoover kept tabs on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr and many others of that [...]

For those of you who haven’t heard (all two of you) the BITCH from decades past has come back to spread more of her homophobic bullshit, this time with “a little help from her friends” according to Truth Wins Out  . After failing at almost everything she has tried since the late 1970’s, former orange juice queen turned homophobe Anita [...]

The Texas Rangers, a team on the verge of bankruptcy, pulled off the biggest deal of the season today by sending starting 1B Justin Smoak and prospects to the Seattle Mariners for former Cy Young pitcher Cliff Lee. It’s a bold stroke for a team under such financial distress, especially considering they bested the Yankees on [...]

Back in April of this year, James Hipps and I had Mike Rogers, the bear that always gets his in-the-closet anti-gay politican, on The Gay Agenda on BlogTalkRadio. Now MetroWeekly has done an interview with Mike and it’s worth your time to read. He’s not much of a grandstander. In person, he’s unassuming. He can laugh heartily, but he’s [...]

According to our friends over at MEDIAWEEK, ESPN has received the broadcast rights to ACC football for an undisclosed amount of money. The 12-year agreement also includes men’s and women’s basketball games, plus 22 other collegiate sports and televising conference championships. The rights begin with the 2011-12 academic year through the spring of 2023. Word of the deal [...]

It’s never too early to cuss and discuss college football or college football hotties. Heck we’re T-minus 55 days to kickoff.

The AP and ESPN/USA Today polls will not be out until August but here’s a consolidated look at some of college football’s preseason Top 25 polls:

Well it took some proding from GLAAD and members of the LGBT community but NBC has reversed itself on who will be able to participate in its upcoming “Till Death Do Us Part” feature. Over the past few days TODAY has received a considerable response regarding our wedding contest application. The rules stated that eligible couples [...]

For everyone outside of south Florida, LeBron’s decision to leave Cleveland was brutal. We haven’t witnessed this much useless media attention aimed at one person since….well, since ESPN decided to make Brett Favre’s decision to play or not to play a daily soap opera. Yet there’s so much hypocrisy in the reaction of the media, the fans, [...]

You never know when someone will find something from someones past and put it on the I-Net. I came across this photo on another blog (guarantee it will go viral over the weekend) of Rachel Maddow … yes my beloved one. Sorry Rachel I know ( wink) you read the Focus On The Rainbow blogs but I couldn’t [...]

Cavs’ owner Dan Gilbert’s retort to LeBron James’ decision to play for the Heat makes me think leaving the Cavs was a good idea. Dear Cleveland, All Of Northeast Ohio and Cleveland Cavaliers Supporters Wherever You May Be Tonight; As you now know, our former hero, who grew up in the very region that he deserted this evening, [...]

This past evening James Hipps and I had the pleasure to speak with Troy Michael Smith on the The Gay Agenda  on BlogTalkRadio. Troy is the 2010 Pittsburgh Mr. Gay USA, the 2010 USA Mr. Gay 2nd Runner Up and Pennsylvania’s LGBT Person of The Year for 2010.  This charming young man who is bi-sexual, is well spoken and [...]

It’s been a very long 11 months for Caster Semenya who had to undergo gender testing after becoming the 800-meter world champion. But as is being reported from Johannesburg by the Associated Press via ESPN, Caster will keep running as a woman. What was the saddest and most likely humiliating thing about this whole “gender-bender” debacle were reports [...]

Whether you’re an Olympic pin collector, member of the LGBT community or both you’ll be excited about this news which comes via a press release. Openly-gay Welsh rugby player Gareth Thomas urged people to “wear their pin badge with pride and help us achieve greater inclusion in sport”. London 2012 chief executive Paul Deighton said the pin [...]

That gasping sound you hear from LA isn’t over the disbelief in Lindsey Lohan’s 90-day jail sentence for substance abuse/drunk driving/stupidity. Nope, it’s mostly coming from USC’s head coach Lane Kiffin disbelief with what’s happening to his once-proud-under-Peter-Carroll program. First defensive end Malik Jackson announces on Monday he will transfer to Tennessee of all places and then [...]

A fan attending a Texas Rangers game at the BallPark in Arlington fell some 30 feet into the lower bowl on Tuesday night, delaying the game 16 minutes while emergency personnel attended to him. The fall occurred while the fan was trying to grab Nelson Cruz’s foul ball during the bottom of the 5th inning. [...]

At the top of my list of pet peeves, right up there with douche bags who wear ballcaps as accessories, is media lame asses who recycle stories without putting any thought into them. A typical sportswriter’s brain works a little something like this: Oh, I see the All-Star game is getting close so it must be time [...]

Now many of us have heard the “rumors” about the porn industry and in particular gay/bi actors using (or abusing) prescription male enhancement meds. Now before you start with the obvious jokes, including the warnings in the TV ads regarding perky peckers lasting for four hours, there is a darkside to this believe it or not. [...]

This past week in our local paper was an article about a proposal to build a new ultra modern gym in a former retail site here in Danbury. One of the first things that popped into my mind was bis, gays and lesbians in the area must be thinking “ah a new hunting ground”. This [...]

According to media reports in Anchorage, Alaska on Friday a gay pride float which was going to be used in a Fourth Of July parade was set on fire and not only destroyed the float but also a building. It took 10 days to build the gay pride float. The plan is to make a statement by rebuilding [...]
