Keith Olbermann Sets Gay Jason Collins STRAIGHT!

ESPN's Keith Olbermann sets Gay Jason Collins STRAIGHT on "Who was first Active gay team major sports player! Keith pays tribute to the first openly gay player in one of the four major sports. And it's not Jason Collins. Keith talked Glenn Burke, the LA Dodger who was the first openly gay athlete in major sports over 30 years before Jason Collins. It's personal, rational and ends with a shocking twist.
"If I can make friends honestly, it may be a step toward gays and straight people understanding each other. Maybe they'll say, 'He's all right, there's got to be a few more all right.' Maybe it will begin to make it easier for other young gays to go into sports." Glenn Burke
Those are the words of Major League Baseball's first openly gay player. While the national media covers Jason Collins' first minutes on the court as an openly gay professional basketball player and the NFL network constantly breaks down rookie Michael Sam's combine stats, we forget about the ORIGINAL sports pioneer.
