Okay but seriously, there's a reason he's so paranoid about his anonymity on this board right now, and it's because this is wrong. Kid is an amateur collegiate athlete, and you're advertising his goods online.
There's a reason there's issues with female reporters and the locker rooms and crap. This is rude, and obviously if Stamford found out, you'd lose whatever access you had to their lockers.
And brainstorming the number of professions that could get him in lockers with Agassi, Luck, and the other people he name dropped... smells reporter.
You had to brainstorm this? I hope you weren't too tired out!
Regardless, your point is well taken. In fact, I regret posting so much detail after all. In the time since, I have gotten to know Mr. Luck (who is very much a man...not a kid), and now feel a bit guilty about the salaciousness of what I wrote.
However...There are certain realities of living in the public spotlight, and being ogled by adoring fans and even hard up closet queens (like yourself) is taken in stride by these people. I too was a Div 1 college athlete and there are no illusions that what reporters see and hear in the locker room this day and age is open fodder for publication. Any personal details about our athletes (even the amateurs, and certainly the pros) is hungrily devoured by the same ravenous public that espouses their own rights to privacy. Athletes know to keep to themselves anything they prefer go unwritten when a reporter is around, and if they are shy about their junk, they get dressed in a way that prevents exposure. This is certainly not the only website that has "revelations" about college athletes', shall we say, "gifts." We were/are also keenly aware of the glut of hidden camera videos out there too. And then there was the recent shutdown of a website here in SoCal with hundreds of sexually suggestive photos of high school water polo players nearly naked. We've all seen them (these types of pics, I mean), athletes caught in an awkward or personal hygiene moment that was not intended to be splayed across blogs, tumblr, etc. But that is our reality. Our base desire to humanize those we revere combined with our ever-more intrusive and present technology virtually gurantees exposure of celebrities' personal lives.
Do I feel guilty for contributing to the sea of peeping tom media like this? In Andrew's case, yes. In the others I mentioned....no. Besides they are almost all actors, and that is a whole different level of public access. Further, another contributor suggested that it was wrong to talk about trysts - or something to the effect. I never claimed to be involved with any of the men I mentioned; just lucky enough to see what God gave them. But at the end of the day, they are just that. Men. They willingly live lifestyles scrutinized by the public, and know what comes with such a decision. Trust me, they don't want, nor need you to defend them.
P.S. I'm not a reporter.
