Its a good chance they will then offer him a season contract.

or when they want to try and see how a particular player fits their system.

A player can sign two 10 day contacts with an individual team and then they have to either be signed for the rest of the season or released.

deserve a lot of praise for their courage. It will be interesting to see who is next and how quickly the old bigoted system folds up.

athletes can reconsider their lives. Pressure, too, because most know who are gay anyway...just not ready for the public or risk to hard-fought major league careers. I wish all of them well.

Something rather poetic about that.

After learning he got signed by the Nets.

Not in LA anymore, but they are a class act and people in LA ... left coast, and all!!! Wish there was a clip somewhere. Thanks for sharing.

His career PPG average is something like 3 points.

at his home town, no less.
