...grabbed him many headlines. But there’s a reason Magura split last year’s George Percy Award for best rookie with Jon Pelle and his 25 points.

Ogiela, 26, even works for Randy Olsen, Bryan's father, as the office manager of the family pest-control firm in Woodstock, Ga. As a Mormon, says Randy, 53, "I don't believe that men should be together. I never will. But I love him as my son. And he and his partner are good boys." Randy says his first reaction to Bryan's teen homosexuality...
