Gay Sportspeople. Would we accept it ?

Las Vegas Raiders Defensive End Carl Nassif has come out as gay, respect to the guy, and as he says hopefully these videos aren’t needed in the future.
Got me thinking, if Thomas Hitzlsperger had come out when he was with us, would he have got the support of the West Ham fan base ? I like to think he would have, we have always been a very accepting bunch of fans. What people do in their own homes is none of our business. But unfortunately due to the risk their sexuality could have to their careers, their daily lives (being attacked by anti gay morons) they couldn’t up until now. Good to see progression in this area.

It's absolutely politics. A direct response to a law passed in Hungary. This is only going to get worse and broaden to more and more issues that the players want to virtue signal on. Depressing.

NFL Player Announces He Is Gay, Is Switching Over To Soccer
June 22nd, 2021 - BabylonBee.com
LAS VEGAS, NV—The Raiders' Carl Nassib announced he was gay this week, becoming the first openly gay player in NFL history.
Shortly after the announcement, he also announced he would be switching from football to soccer.
"I have come to the realization that I am gay," he said in an emotional interview, "and coincidentally, I will also now be playing soccer going forward." Nassib said the realization that his true felt identity was as a soccer player coincided with his discovery that he was gay, but that the two don't necessarily have any kind of correlation.
"It's a complete coincidence, honestly," he said as he removed his Raiders jersey and put on an L.A. Galaxy shirt. "I like men and I also like to lightly kick a ball around a field while not scoring any goals. There's no relationship between those two facts." Nassib added that it's hard for him to leave the Raiders as a gay man, but ultimately soccer is a better fit for him.
The press then tried to ask him a question, but he flopped on the ground in pain, claiming to have been attacked by homophobes

I only know about 5 benders, none have the slightest interest in football.
There is a reason poofs don’t play.

Do you have laces in black and white crossword blocks, a crossword flag, and bang on and on about how you are the only person doing crosswords in the village?

I've played in a team with an openly gay player. (Contrastereotypically, he was a bit of a hardnut. Although his boyfriend, watching from the sidelines, wasn't.)
Why would I object to watdhing one?

I'd encourage it. It would be good for sport, as well as inclusion.

one nun says to the other, "I've never come this way before."
The other nun replies, "Must be the cobblestones."
