“I haven’t done any shameless self promotion in a while,” writes Jack E Jett, who has his own channel on WOW TV. “I have missed myself. Anyway, I had the opportunity to interview three gay athletes at the same time. It was the best phoner I have ever had. The interviews, titled “Playing for the Other Team,” are on Radar. I can now add sports reporter to my resume.”

The three athletes pictured above, John Amaechi (with Lance Bass), Eseera Tuaolo, and Billy Bean, are quite straightforward, so to speak, about being gay. Jett asked Bean what the oddest question he’d been asked regarding his homosexuality was. “I was actually once asked if I was a top or a bottom on a radio show,” Bean said, “and that was the first time that I think I was embarrassed in public. When you become public, when you ‘come out,’ when you invite the public into your private life, there is a sense that you deserve to be asked that question.”
