He's believed to be the first publicly gay major division college football player.


quote:

Edward "Chip" Sarafin, a backup 320-pound senior offensive lineman for Arizona State University, has come out publicly as gay. He is the only known publicly out player in major college football.

Sarafin told his story to Phoenix-based Compete magazine, a publication for gay sports. The article by Joshua Wyrick focused on Sarafin's educational studies in biomedical engineering with his goal of becoming a neurologist and in his volunteer work. The part of Sarafin being gay is addressed in an oh-my-the-way manner near the end.

He came out to his Sun Devils teammates last spring, saying, "it was really personal for me and it benefited my peace of mind greatly."

It's stuff like this that always makes me think it's just another Kardashian-level-generation of attention whoring.

It's not about gay or whatever.

It's just about a generation of total attention whores. If you are under 22...no offense...but you suck shite as a human being. It's not your fault, you were raised in believing everything you did was the greatest thing on the planet.

Nobody gives a crap about this person.

He's not Tebow, Young, Bush or even a starter.

Why is this news? We have crossed the supposed big secret that there might be gay people on sports teams?

This stuff just feels stupid and old.

No doubt dude's been paying attention to the Michael Sam Show. Bet he can't wait to be called the "bravest player in college football"

Let's not paint with broad strokes. Also most of the media types that are deciding to deliver the news to you are older than 22
