Deadspin
In the newest issue of Interview magazine, Notre Dame quarterback Brady Quinn, handsome man of leisure, spreads 'em and smiles big in a big photo feature. Brady looks all playful and chiseled and Notre Dame-y, we guess. You might notice, when you look at the pictures, that Brady is shot rather, oh, beefcakey.
The interview was conducted by former Out editor-in-chief Brendan Lemon, best known for being the guy who claimed to be dating a famous closeted baseball player, and photographed by Bruce Weber, not the basketball coach, but this guy. This got us to thinking: Was Brady Quinn aware of the gay bonafides of his interviewer and photographer? (Other than a general suspicion, since, uh, it's Interview.)
That's not meant to be provocative; it's just that this is sports, and if anything scares an athlete, it's gay people. (Oh, and paternity suits.) Lemon and Weber are experienced professionals, don't get us wrong, but we doubt it's a coincidence that Quinn's pictures look like he they might be used for currency in a Chelsea bathhouse. So did Quinn know, or was he just surprised by how gay the whole thing turned out? Because if he knew what he was getting into, that makes Brady Quinn, in our book, a pretty cool guy. And if he didn't ... well, that's just hysterical.

I heard Brady Quinn is moving to New Jersey.
Is this more gay or less gay than Ben Roethlisberger on the cover of Mens Health?
It takes guts to come out in the middle of the season and obviously Charlie Weis admitting he was stupid had a profound impact on Brady Quinn.
Here's the story...of a man named Brady...
derrick thomas never feared the paternity suit.. i think he wore one, actually
Lavar Arrington and Kordell Stewart salute his courage.
I'm waiting for Prince Fielder to do a photo shoot like this.
Is it true that Brady admitted that his favorite food was fudge?
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
As far as next year's draft goes, go ahead and pencil him in the one-hole.
Congratulations, Will, on proving your heterosexuality.
Those photos aren't even close to being "Gay" beefcakey.
Tom Brady has that beat in spades.
And Brady Quinn has a new fan!
I hope I didn't catch gay from those photos
Congratulations, Will, on proving your heterosexuality.
Those photos aren't even close to being "Gay" beefcakey...just because you found them on Towleroad.
Tom Brady has that beat in spades.
And Brady Quinn has a new fan!
Odd, because I always suspected that Lemon was dating Brady Anderson
The last thing Joe Buck needed was this type of distraction during the World Series.
Are those band-aides left over from the skull fucking against Michigan?
I hate technology.
I've seen gay beefcake, and that, Sir, is no gay beefcake.
Someone needs to order gayday from The Sharper Image.
They fear teh ghey, & they fear the paternity suit?
Jesus, people, make up your minds. Which hole would you prefer to bang?
Know how I know you're--
/gets hit in the head by original person
Bulletin board or bathroom material in Annapolis?
(Whew! I thought the sight was down for a second. If I can't post, I have to work. And I don't want to do that.)
Quinn can't be a gay...he goes to a Catholic school. And just because he listens to the Scissor Sisters and has Erasure's Greatest Hits...
Besides, why all the Homo bath houses gotta be in Chelsea anyway? I'm sure there are plenty in Tottingham, Manchester, Liverpool, etc.
Me eyes threw up.
I hate technology.
Technology has nothing on our Gawker server hamsters.
Looks like the money shots missed.
Get AIDS like a champion today
Maybe Brady would like to come over to my house just to hang out. I've got a half-rack of Schmitt's chillin in the fridge and the Torch Song Trilogy Criterion Collection we can watch.
To be fair, living with Laura Quinn for an entire childhood would make anyone gay.
Looks like he could star in a Schnmitt's ad.
I would go gay for Brady Quinn. This is truth.
his transgendered sister Laura set him up for the photoshoot I bet...
DannyG - there's distasteful and clever and then there's just plain inappropriate.
Sorry - AIDS jokes don't make me laugh.
Well, it could have been a photo shoot of his sister.
Is this a surprise? Quinn is always hooking up with Samardzija. THat's his reciever.
do you think they share AJ Hawk?
Anyone else think Will had a hard time writing that post? With all the veiled apologies, innuendo, and retraction... my head hurts.
BoSox-Inappropriate is my middle name. Nothing is off limits.
Apropos of...the gayness: From the WWL front page "• Gay in control at Chrysler | Barron goes shirtless"
I'm open-minded and don't think there's anything wrong with being gay. But the center at Notre Dame is suddenly thinking that those play call at the line of scrimmage last an awfully long time.

Holy Shit. DJ Gallo just ass-raped Charlie Weis in his latest Page 2 column...
And Brady Quinn was jealous of said ass-raping
I wonder if the NCAA will suspend Quinn for taking a moneyshot to do this article.
Commissioner...send out the 289-signal....I think photoshopping that pool float picture into the Schmitt's Gay pool would be appropriate right now.
Critic, that would mean Quinn is into bears wouldn't it?
Huh...Will used the word "bonafide"...
Yeah, that's all I've got.
Well...there goes his chance of marching in any St. Patrick Day Parades.
When God gives you AIDS, make lemon-AIDS!
I'm with the other girls on this one. Not gay beefcake material. But damn cute.
Just Dreamy.
Did Esera Tuaolo go to Notre Dame?
Gallo ripped fat Charlie a third asshole
Quinn is a furry?
