Really doubt the women were beating down this dude's doorstep. I've gone years without dating after a failed relationship. To borrow a phrase from HIMYM, "Hello, have you met Porn?"
No doubt, but my point is how long can he keep the charade going if all he is doing is telling people he is gay? After a while, wont people close to him start to wondering why he isn't dating anyone?

People have done much, much more crazy things to try to make money. Seriously, there's a market for this book and this guy's going to make some money.

You seem shocked, hurt and angry because people on a sports message board focusing on a college team in South LA are homophobic. What did you expect?

I'm from rural effing east texas and went to school in arkansas. don't act like bigotry only exists in LA. I'm simply voicing my own disgust over those that are still of that opinion in 2012.
I think we should expect more out of each other. Oh noes.

I for one don't care if he's at gay or straight. I think he's a tool for being a phony and lying because "God made him" and trying to cash in by writing a book about it.
That's the bigger issue. What sort of tool does something like this and pawns it off as doing good? It's either a publicity stunt to sell books or the tool wants to play with the gays.

He isn't exactly a looker no matter the team he plays for. I doubt people are knocking his door down to date.

I just read the entire article. His reasons for writing the book seem illogical. It seems to boil down to he saw a lesbian cry and he thought he needed to pretend to be gay in order to empathize with her. Ok.
The point was that learning to empathize with a lesbian friend means you've learned to empathize with gay people (/anyone different) as a human being in general.
Even just with her, I think "I'm sorry your parents disowned you. They just don't understand. You'll always have friends to support you, including me" is a HUGE improvement over "You deserved it because you're an abomination and going to hell unless you repent."

Nope. Just find bigotry anti-Christian and disgusting.

Let me rephrase for you since you are playing word games. What does this have to do with him being a fraud?

I think he carried it a wee bit too far.
