Oh my! Forget Jason Collins. This is news! NFL Network analyst and former NFL player and MLB player Deion Sanders met up with Glenn Beck recently and offered up his praise.
"Coming out" as a Glenn Beck supporter – now THAT is something a sports figure can do that takes some balls. @DeionSanders

@DeionSanders @glennbeck I have always thought you were a class act. If you are a Glenn Beck fan your stock has gone up even more.

Indeed. Mr. Sanders continued speaking his truth.
I've known for years that God is amazing but over the last several months he's been exceedingly above all I've ever asked or thought. Truth

It’s always wonderful to see someone refusing to walk in PC-lockstep.
“@glennbeck: . @deionsanders is one of the good guys. We spoke of family, God and doing the right thing…”soon to be canned by ESPN?

Sigh. Stay strong, Mr. Sanders! Those who believe in freedom, including freedom of thought, have your back.
