When LSU's football coach essentially called UCLA a bunch of sissies, it was rooted in homophobia. Now various people across sports are embracing "sissy blue" as a badge of honor. @RedCupRebellion @TheMightyBruin It's fascinating to watch. outsports.com/2021/10/22/227…

Goodbye, Ed Orgeron. And don’t let that ‘sissy blue’ hit you on the way out

LSU’s football coach attacked UCLA with homophobia last month. The term has lingered, now embraced by some Bruins and even Ole Miss.

It was 52 years ago today that ⁦@SJSU⁩ legends Tommie Smith & John Carlos raised their fists in protest at the 1968 Summer Olympics. They paid a heavy price for their bravery but now are rightfully recognized for what they did. This beautiful statue is on the SJSU campus
