After NBA player Jason Collins broke that barrier this week, the National Football League is making sure it will be ready for any coming out party.
Earlier this year, at least three college football players said they had been asked about their sexual orientation during NFL recruitment interviews, sparking calls for the NFL to do more to fight discrimination.
Just hours before Collins' coming out statement was published by Sports Illustrated on Tuesday, the NFL - America's most popular sport, with $9 billion a year in revenue - released a workplace conduct statement' regarding sexual orientation.

And the first man to score in tonight’s (Tigers) baseball game is Tori Hunter who said he wouldn’t be comfortable with openly gay men in the locker room. LOL

Ive never been an NFL fan myself. Ill watch my college alum fight it out on Saturdays and an occasional NASCAR race, but sports anymore have become soapboxes for leftist commentators. You are absolutely correct re. soapboxes for leftist commentators. I often turn the sound on mute if or when I do watch some random NFL games. But even for college level sports or high school sports, it is non-stop ad nauseum liberal propoganda, eco-environmento crap, gushing over this black player or that black player, etc. Now the liberal propoganda will be gushing over this gay faggot or that gay lesbian....barf!!!
I enjoy playing sports, but I don't enjoy watching them much any longer.

Odds on how long it'll take the militant faggots and panty-waisted public to team up for ruining Little League with this vile perversion ?
There are simply no adequate words to express my complete and utter disgust with half the creatures populating the dissolving remnants of what used to be the United States of America.

Paul Tagliabue’s son is gay. He is really pushing it at Georgetown, where he is a trustee.

if fans wanted to see homosexuals in sports the WNBA would not be stuggling.
This is beyond financial stupidity, this is finacial suicide.
Some homosexuals activist said “nobody who matters” objects. The homosexuals will do a push poll to simulate normal peopl praising this.
The fact is this is a disgusting situation and has no place in civilized society. (no need for religious arguments)
nobody is going to pay money to see the fighting liberachis.

With a shredded remnant of faith, let's hope you're right .. not just with meaningless diversions like pro sports, but across the board.

Well, they’re moving closer and closer to flag football, so it’s a short step to fag football. I won’t be watching.

I heard the foghorns on the radio news all day today saying that this loser “made history” by coming out and telling the whole world what he loves to do with other men when he’s not warming the bench at NBA games. If this is “history”, I have obviously lived too long. You can bet this was the first time during his adult life that OBozo was proud of his country. I still don’t understand this country’s obsession with homosexuals.
