Sports Headline of the Day

And now, it's not about Tiger Woods:

Transsexual Sportswriter Dead

Transsexual sportswriter Mike Penner has died, the Los Angeles Times reports.

The journalist made international news in 2007 when he announced he was transsexual and then began penning his articles for the Los Angeles Times under the name Christine Daniels.

Colleagues at the Times say the suspected cause of death was suicide.
Confusion will do that to you.

And how would this guy feel knowing the last headline of his left made it apparent his sexuality was his only claim to fame? Wouldn't he have rather had "Great Sportswriter Dead" or "Fine Sportswriter Dead".

Have you ever seen the headline "Heterosexual Sportswriter Dead"?

It's a shame it ended this way for him, on many levels.

This is the sad truth about all the hope-and-change style "compassion" for the alphabet types of sexual confusion is that behind these purportedly daring experiments is just a whole bunch of emotional illness.

Where are all the enablers? What good is all their progressive understanding when these people finally crash?
