John Amaechi has become a household name since coming out, but he's hardly the first. Former (American) footballer Esera Tuaolo and baseballer Billy Bean also used their post-game lives to spread the good, gay word.

JJ: John, I read somewhere that you and Tim Hardaway are going to be doing something on TV together?A bit of a sporty love connection happening?
JA:: There's an enduring rumor out there that we're going to do Oprah together.JJ: My hope was that it was going to include a no-holds-barred wrestling match.
JA: In terms of basketball, he can beat me soundly, but in terms of wrestling, I think I've got him.
ET: Believe me, dude, you'll have some backing.

Every now and again we come across the occasional article on gay pro athletes. Not that there are that many to pick from. Last week we had an update on ex-NFL queen Dave Kopay and today it’s Billy Bean’s turn to talk about coming out in pro sports. Bean tells us why gay athletes prefer their sexuality stay stuffed way back in their lockers next to their jock straps and secret stash of Freshmen magazines.
"If somebody famous came out, all those sports fans who love him, who run around wearing his T-shirts and jerseys, it would be something where they'd have to start asking questions about themselves," Bean said.
Yet even more reason for us to support athletes’ coming out. We’d be absolutely thrilled if more guys got themselves out of those tacky jerseys and into something more fashionable.
