As I was watching the Jerry Smith 'A Football Life' again last night I was thinking something similar. Wouldn't it be great if even just a handful of guys from several teams all came out together?

I guess that might be asking for too much.

I'm sure there are those that simply don't want to come out, to their teams or to the public. That's certainly understandable.

Hopefully the situation with Sam goes smoothly so maybe more players will feel ok about coming out, if they want to of course.
