Some heavy hitters turned out for Sunday's Face The Nation discussion of Tuesday's U.S. Supreme Court hearing on marriage equality. 

Vocal LGBT advocate and Baltimore Ravens linebacker Brendon Ayanbadejo, Family Research Council head Tony Perkins, Freedom to Marry's Evan Wolfson, Alliance Defending Freedom's Austin Nimocks, and former President Bush staff member David Frum (who opposed marriage equality, but now supports it), all came ready to play!
