It has been one week since the Post-Gazette article on the Rene Portland debacle ran (Penn State's 'Mommy Coach' a bigot?) Given that women's hoops are fairly popular around here, I expected … well, something!

According to his mother, classmates put up a faux My Space profile identifying the young man as gay. This happened hand in hand with unspecific physical bullying. So what happened to this kid? […]
Words I thought might never cross my lips … Hurrah for Ohio! The 6th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that public employees can be disciplined for discrimination even if they are following religious beliefs. This is a big victory for gay rights advocates because it gives teeth to workplace non-discrimination policies. The case involves a Baptist prison […]
Tribune-Review columnist Mike Seate has recently made repeated forays into gay issues, commenting on Rene Portland as well as the straight-appeal of beloved gay bar True. His most recent column examines anti-gay activists outrage with that icon of the gay community … Wal-Mart. Yes, of course, its because Wal-Mart is selling DVD copies of Brokeback Mountain. […]
