No, it doesn't surprise me at all. Didn't mean to imply that it would.

Niss - oh ok, just your phrasing "apparently it remains a difficult thing" made me think you were kind of surprised.

And yeah, what KC said - outside of team chemistry issues, I think it might be a career killer. After all the noise / celebration of the "1st active pro athlete to come out" dies down, what you're left with is a guy who people don't want to play with, GMs wouldn't want, and for the most part, a fan base that would not prefer this athlete to other non-bisexual / gay ones.
