Greetings Sports Fans and Athletic Supporters:

Come join us Under the Bleachers for Episode 14 of Season 2 - Sticky Balls!

This week it’s Laura’s turn to pick the topics. For our discussion of all things queer, she chose the Emmy Awards announcement regarding gendered categories; for our conversation on all things sports we are talking about foreign substance inspections; and for our topic at the intersection of sports and queer, we welcome the very first gay, active player in the NFL to our rainbow family. After that, we share our interview with the Rainbow History Project.
