LeBron: Jason Collins Coming Out 'Very Noble On His Part' 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed May 1, 2013 7:07 am

LeBron James supported Jason Collins becoming the first openly gay male athlete in a major American professional sport to reveal his sexuality while still an active player.


“I think it’s very noble on his part," James said. “I think it’s a strong thing to do, and I think as NBA players, we all offer him our support.”


Collins came out in a Sports Illustrated story on Monday and has received an overwhelmingly positive response from people around the NBA.

Why are Lebron's comments worthy of the wiretap? His comments were generic and he's never even played with him.

Get off the guy's dick...

he's the most popular player in the league, so media is going to ask him about historical events and issues pertaining to the league. this counts as both.
RIP magnumt
