Cyd Zeigler, a writer, activist and founder of Outsports.com joins Brian this week.

Their first order of business is, naturally, defining what makes a catch.

It makes sense. Cyd is a high school and college football official and has written a lot about why the much-maligned NFL catch rule actually makes perfect sense.

Cyd and Brian talk about the founding of Outsports.com, why no athletes in the major U.S. team sports have come out in the past few years, the way the mainstream media covers gay athletes, and how that has and hasn’t changed. Cyd recalls Michael Sam’s coming out and the ESPN “report” that undid so much of the positive aspects of that story.
