Mmm ....... Roland Martin seems quite comfortable in his ascot. Too comfortable.
Roland Martin, CNN's most vocal homophobic bigot gets all frothy and excited over the David
Beckham undie ad that aired on Super Bowl. With friends like these, does Obama need any
enemies?
He probably thought seeing the ad would turn half of America's menfolk gay.

Once one of the country's most highly-rated young players, 32-year-old Michael Ball has been
punished by The FA for an offensive Tweet he sent to Coronation Street star Anthony Cotton.
Guardian: MPs to hold inquiry into racism in sport following Luis Suárez
case
• Culture, media and sport select committee will consider issue • Inquiry will not only be
restricted to football A committee of MPs is to hold an inquiry into racism in sport following the
Luis Suárez case and allegations against John Terry.
Well done to Wycombe for signing up to the Government Charter for Action to stamp out homophobia
and transphobia, the first football club to do so. Admittedly the Charter is rather woolly, a set
of four vague pledges with no concrete targets or deadlines, but the sentiment is key, and
Wanderers' stated commitment laudable.
Like every aspiring plutocrat who loves AC Milan, I sometimes fantasise about owning the club. I
have big plans for it. Investing heavily in the youth programme. Engineering unbreakable bonds of
affection between players and club. Brokering a creative and generous understanding between our
ultras and local government.
Theo Walcott & Melanie Slade. Happy to consort with Muggles, apparently. See more of Mel's red

Fine literature and sweet music accompany your snuffle into the week's news today,

I fell in love with the Super Falcons during the 2008 Olympics, watching them slug out the ultimate
group-of-death: Germany, Brazil, Nigeria and North Korea. None of the games in that tournament were
as exciting as those Nigeria played in this group.
Nevertheless, Nigeria didn't make it past that stage.
When sports journalists describe Equatorial Guinea as an unknown quantity, I wonder if that's just
their way of saying they haven't wanted to look too closely at the team and the country's football
association.
Since they upset Nigeria in the 2008 African Women's Championship, they haven't been much of a
mystery to followers of African women's football.
In a recent interview, German national team captain Philip Lahm said that "An openly gay
footballer would be exposed to abusive elements. For someone who does [come out], it would be very
difficult."
Sadly, it is hard to argue with Lahm's conclusion, though it should be noted that there is now
an openly gay footballer Anton Hysén, son of former Liverpool player Glenn Hysén (who coaches
Anton's fourth division Swedish team, Utsiktens BK).

It's been a long day and I would love to write a piece lauding praise upon the last true
great of the English game. For now however, a fitting tribute video will suffice....i'll put
something together on Thursday. Honest.

Cary Leibowitz,
Misery Pennants (1989)By the end of the summer, I was in a dark place in
relation to the men's game: unable to care about who wins what international tournament or league's
season, because who cares what a bunch of spoiled brats do in the service of hyper-leveraged clubs
that look more and more like individuated versions of the real estate bubble.
I am re-posting a message I received this morning from the Forum for the Empowerment of Women in
Johannesburg. Noxolo Nogwaza was raped and murdered this week, three years after the outcry over
Eudy Simelane's murder should have brought these assaults to an end. Every few weeks, it seems,
another woman is killed: Nokuthula Radebe, just 20 years old, was killed a month ago.
