Earlier this morning we posted a video of former NBA player John Amaechi speaking out against conservacunt Ann Coulter. Well, now we’re pleased to share a video of his conversation with gay news magazine, In The Life, which airs in April. Take a sneak peek after the jump, including Amaechi’s opening explanatory statements on his coming out:
I wanted to open a conversation with people who think there are no problems… I wanted to be at the center of this firestorm and be able to drive an intellectual conversation, not just based on a visceral reactions… I wanted, if nothing else, to make it clear to people that gay people don’t just look like Jack from Will and Grace. They can big and black and fat and thin and whatever. They can have jobs that people cannot imagine. They can have every job. Any job. I wanted people to start thinking again.
We’ve never been more serious than when we say we want to marry Amaechi. So, if any of you kids know him, be sure to spread the word.

He’s sexy not just because he’s a former pro athlete. This guy has definitely got something between the ears in addition to what he has between the legs.
Such a positive role model from the world of sports (I’m talking about his brains) is so welcome.
