I'm having a rather severe brain fart here... I am trying to recall what movie it is in which Will Farrell (I think, but it could be someone else) plays a guy who hasn't made that final mental connection that he's gay... (I know, that's most Will Farrell movies... :P) but in this particular one, the character was either formerly the star of the wrestling team in highschool or currently a highschool wrestling coach or possibly both... and is obsessed with grappeling with guys. I seem to remember him also trying to get his girlfriend/wife to wear the football roleplaying costume while he wears the cheerleader one... or something like that.
Like I said, it may or may not be Farrell, but I thought it was... if it was, I couldn't find it by looking it up on IMDB. I'll try wiki too, but if any of you knows what I'm talking about, please speak up. Thanks.

So, anybody else got one on the tip of thier tongue that Wiki and IMDB or any other place on the web hasn't been able to help with? post it here.

Actually I'm pretty good with guessin' a movie with just a bit of a synopsis and/or stars listed. After reading your question, I had the same guess, before KoS beat me to the punch.
I'm pretty sure you're talking about The Ladies Man (2000) and the scene where Will Ferrell comes out of nowhere and starts to say, "Greco Roman Wrestling..."
Actually, I think I remember what you're talking about, Randal.
Was he a high school teacher in a small town? He was in denial for a while, and when he just discovered that he was gay... long after the small town of people were spreading around this rumor thanks to some movie star who pointed out his "old high school teacher" as being gay. the small town's school made a huge fuss, and he was going to be fired from his job. And then at the end, the graduating students stood up for him.
They were like "Oh, you're firing him because you think the gay could spread?"
And then they made a big show of pretending to catch the gay, and then yelling: "By that logic... I'm gay now because he taught me."
And even the high school teacher's parents said something to the effect of: "Well, we're his parents... so I guess we're gay too."
And the movie star came in too at the end.
sadly, I cannot remember the name nethier.

In and Out...starring Kevin Kline Matt Dillon and Tom Selleck.
It was Ladies Man. I've seen all of those. But I was specifically talking about Will Farrell, so it has to have been Ladies Man.
