Am I crazy or is ESPN wrong for doing this? The guy came out; he's gay. We got it. He was the seventh round pick...very few professional athletes deserve their own segment on the ticker.
I don't let it bother me that much. ESPN will run anything into the ground as long as the person has a little notoriety because ESPN is the MSNBC of the sports world. They inflate things to get mass appeal AKA appeal to the lowest common denominators.
See Tim Tebow and Johnny Manziel 24/7 news cycles for instance.
