Sheryl Swoopes visits "Shirts & Skins"Logo has a reality series called Shirts & Skins that we haven't run here because it's about a gay male basketball team in San Francisco. But I thought the latest episode was worth posting because it features fantastic out WNBA star Sheryl Swoopes, who visits the gay San Francisco basketball team to give them some advice. She stresses the importance of teamwork on the court, talks about her coming-out experience (including how some of the NBA players reacted), and — after a little too much wine — offers a very funny summary of how she and her partner got together. Look for Sheryl to appear beginning about six minutes into the video. Shirts & Skins: Episode 4 with Sheryl Swoopes

I love this show
This show is great, and it's a shame there is only six episodes. The episode with John Amaechi in episode 2 and 3 was also nice to see. The one player on the team Demarco I think use to play pro ball I forget the league but it wasn't NBA. The show is great you get to see some basketball being played, and also be touched by watching some pof the more serious things that these guys go through....with coming out and religion...and so on. The Sheryl Swoopes episode just watched it, and she gives me hope. The story of how Shaq, Carter, (KJ ? not sure if thats what she said) and how they gave her support was really moving. The story about the advice and the line "i want to do you" hilarious. Thanks Sarah Warn for posting this story on the site.

Hey Maggieyeahis....FYI. Sheryl was referring to Kevin Garnett (KG). I thought that story was awesome as well. When I came out to one of my best friends she did the same thing. Just gave me a big hug...I cried like a baby :-)
I absolutely love Sheryl Swoopes...AND any opportunity I get I tell the story about how she blew me a kiss from her team bus as they were leaving the arena in Miami... :-) I was walking on sunshine for days...

This episode is truly inspirational. I'm so glad Sheryl Swoopes did come out. Like one of B players said. Sometimes God does use you for a higher purpose. We need more Sheryl Swoopes in LGBT community.
Right on. Now I gotta See S&S.

Thanks for posting this
Thanks for posting this Sarah!
This totally made my day. Sheryl Swoopes is such an amazing woman and to hear her speak to the guys about her experience playing ball and coming out was really something special. I know that i have her as well as so many other woman in the spolight to thank for paving the way and for showing that women, whether they are athletes,doctors,lawyers,educators,etc. can be strong, intelligent, and successful individuals regardless of orienation. It's when I look at those women who have made life easier to live for me, that I look within myself and trully find my own pride.
The splits
I cannot do the splits. :( haha.
Anyways, thanks for the snippet of the episode featuring Sheryl Swoopes.
