Summary:
"Bobby plays football for his high school team, and is happy and comfortable within the sports world, with one exception: he's gay. Needing someone to talk to, Bobby confides his secret, but is outed and begins receiving national media attention as a gay football player. Living an open life, Bobby must be courageous enough to deal with the scrutiny and backlash, as well as the new love that finds him."-- Youth Services Team, HPL.
As Bobby Framingham, quarterback of his high school football team, finally acknowledges to himself that he is gay, events start to spin
out
