Seeems as though i touched a nerve. Let me clarify something, because those who read my posting obviously didn't "listen" to the point I was trying to make. I have no problem with a persons persuit of identity, and/or sexuality. I am simply tired of the politically correct trend in society, that says the minority need to have the majority claim acceptence of their pursuit. If the writer had spent years coming to this decision, which i will assume he did, then I would think that he would feel secure, thus he would be able to share his joy with those who make a real difference, his inner circle of family and friends. I did not know chris's gender prior to the article, but now, not only do I know that, but I know something that is not reletive to my enjoyment or distaste for whatever he writes. Read my lips!!! I DON'T NEED TO KNOW!!! KEEP IT TO YOURSELF. Please! Allow me the privelage of reading without the distraction of thinking, oh this is the guy who became a girl, isn't it? If I want to read about transexuals, I will certainly be able to find someone who writes about it. Possibly Bixby23 can tell me where to look. The way you are offended by misuse of CAPS LOCK and words makes you appear very "anal", if you get my drift.

ALL I KNOW IS I AM A DETROIT LIONS FAN, AND I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A PISSED OFF DONAVAN AND T.O. PLAYING AT FORD FIELD THIS YEAR "FOR THE LIONS, THAT IS". I WILL HAVE TO PRAY THAT JOEY CAN DO HIS BEST DREW BREES IMPERSONATION. DOES ANYONE BELEIVE T.O. DID THIS FOR A NEW EAGLES CONTRACT? I THINK ITS ALL ABOUT CREATING HYPE. HE'S SAID IT IN INTERVIEWS, THAT HE PERCEIVES HIMSELF AS AN ENTERTAINER. IN THE WORLD OF PRO SPORTS HYPE MEANS PUBLICITY, AND PUBLICITY TRANSLATE TO MONEY. MAYBE NOT IN AN EAGLES CONTRACT, BUT SOMEHOW TO WILL GET PAID FOR ALL THE HYPE HE HAS CREATED. YOU CAN TAKE THAT TO THE BANK. BESIDES, ITS NOT LIKE HE KILLED HIS BABYS MOMMA, OR SHOT SOMEBODY AT A NIGHTCLUB. HELL HE HASN'T EVEN GOT HIS FIRST DUI. I DON'T KNOW THAT I WOULD DO WHAT HE DOES, IF I WERE IN HIS SHOES, BUT YOU GOTTA ADMIT, IT IS PRETTY DAMN ENTERTAINING.

I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH ANYONE DOING WHAT CHRIS...ER CHRISTINA DID IN CHANGING SEX. MY QUESTION IS THIS. WHY WHEN PEOPLE DO THIS, DO THEY FEEL THEY NEED OUTSIDE EXCEPTENCE? WHY IS IT SO DAMN IMPORTANT THAT THE PUBLIC MUST KNOW? WHY WOULD HE/SHE EVEN HAVE TO ADD TO A "SPORTS" STORY WITH THIS TYPE OF VERY PERSONAL INFORMATION? NOT HAVING WALKED A MILE IN THOSE SHOES, I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT THIS IS A PERSON WHOM STILL IS CONFUSED, OR AT LEAST INSECURE. IF YOU DO IT, FINE. I JUST DON'T NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IT. AND IF ANYTHING, IT DETRACTS FROM THE STORIES THAT HE/SHE WILL WRITE, BECAUSE NOW I WILL BE THINKING ABOUT THAT ANGLE EVERYTIME I AM READING, RATHER THAN FOCUSING ON THE STORY LINE.

Buehrlie think that Texas may be "stealing" signs
Cheating in baseball? That would never happen! Just ask Gaylor Perry, Sammy Sosa and Barry Bonds. Just don't do it before a senate panel.
