It’s Friday!  Here are a few things we’ve been reading this week:

• A Blog of Their Own celebrates the birthday of the All American Girls Professional Baseball League
• Last week Sara posted on the horrid show “While the Men Watch Hockey Night”; Ellen Etchingham decisively weighs in on The Score
• Via Grantland, hopefully it’s the beginning of the end of homophobia in sports
• Via BBC, Iranian soccer fans may see some equality in the stands of the Asian Football Confederation Under 16 Championship
• Grantland also published an open letter to Manny Pacquiao from a gay Filipina American
