Why We Care That Jason Collin's Came Out.

It was a little over a week ago when the top Women's basketball player Brittney Griner, just selected first in the WNBA draft, announced that she was gay...and nothing really happened (media/political-wise.). Today, Jason Collins became the first major pro US athlete to come out as gay and it's making some big headlines. Why did we have such a different reaction and what does it say about the status of sexuality in our society?
