That's kinda new for me, but it seems no more effeminate than wearing earrings.

I don't think you can compare the actions of Namath, and damn sure not Rodman, to the actions of many of today's athletes. Both leagues, and society in general, have shifted so far things just aren't the same.
Rodman could do the gayest thing imaginable and people wouldn't call him gay. I highly doubt we'll see this kid rise to that level, but who knows. So far, he's failing miserably.
