NFL discriminates against gay, HIV + former pro football player?
Was a former Giants lineman denied access to the Super Bowl media center, game and parties because he is gay and HIV positive?

I found this little tidbit while idly surfing the net (and not watching the State of the Union address) on Women's Hoops Blog It would seem that our revered football coach has been a longtime defender of Portland's hate-policies. Joe Pa, then and now the most beloved and powerful figure at the school, refused to […]
