        is it anyone's business? Is lgbt a bigger issue than slavery, economic hardship, should athletes also publicise such issues in Rio?

        Fortunately, none got picked up by the DB @NicoHines on DailyBeast. I guess they don't like his "face"

        Good story, because it's really important to sports where people put their genitals while they're not doing sports.

        I'm not understanding why knowing if an athlete is gay or not relevant to their sport or their abilities?
