I'll be curious (not bi-curious) to see what people think. Where's the line? Would it be ok to follow a closeted player and snap a picture of him kissing a guy?

-Yes, because news outlets cover "off the field" activities of teams, it would be acceptable to out a closeted player.

-No, a player's personal life shouldn't be fair game for the news media.
