Maybe this has already been addressed on this board and I just haven't seen it. But has anybody seen the story that this week on Real Sports With Bryant Gumbel a former NFL player is coming out? At the DataLounge.com, they say that it is a former Viking. And a Minneapolis Star-Tribune writer gives these hints..."This athlete is someone with another career interest - although it hasn't exactly taken off... (And) Lots of shoppers (presumably in Minnesota) were looking when he and (said sportswriter) shared a hug at Costco during the summer. . . "
I'm hoping that it is Robert Smith. He claimed to have left the Vikings to pursue a medical career.
If anyone watches Real Sports, let me know who it is..I don't have HBO. Although I'm assuming in a few days, it will be all over the news here.
