Mike Piazza’s New Book To Tell Harrowing Story of Denying He Is Gay
Former Major League catcher Mike Piazza was beset with pesky questions about his sexuality throughout his career. He even married a sexy Playboy centerfold to disprove it! Now retired, Piazza’s cashing in with a book, expected to drop in 2010, that will cover “national controversies –- notably the 2000 World Series incident when Roger Clemens threw a shattered bat at Piazza, and the press conference he held to deny rumors that he was gay.” [LAT]
Feh.
Reading his last name did make me want a slice of ‘za, however.
The only man who needs to hold a press conference to deny something, is one who has something to deny.
The one who has nothing to deny, denies nothing.
Well said, Ed!
The only reason he should mention it is if he wants to subsequently come out in the following chapter.
Otherwise, he’ll end up like Sandy Koufax.
OJ, anyone?
