Laveranues Coles on Oprah

[itsjdiggity]

Anyone catch this? He talked about how his father constantly raped him as a child with a gun to his head. I believe he only went public with it recently. It was pretty intense.

[FondestMemory]

he went public with it a few months ago.

i didn't realize he was on oprah though. that's fucking insane. takes massive balls to come out with that kinda shit. pretty heroic though. hopefully other kids dealing with what he did can expose the fuckers that do this shit.

people are gross.

Yeah I heard about that. It's a pretty sad story. You gotta respect the guy for coming out with it like that. It's pretty tough to tell someone that, let alone the country.

I watched the whole thing. Gotta respect that man a huge amount for having the guts to come out and say what happened to him publicly. Especially from a sport that is considered uber-masculine.
