Did they have a quota of straights on the team? How about a quota for whites on the NBA - and a percentage of drawfs of the NBA.

Doesn’t the act of playing soft ball itself qualify for making you ‘gay enough’?

I could not read the whole article because I was laughing too much. But let me see if I got it right.
They can limit the heteros on a team but we could not limit gayboys.

There are a lot of pitchers and catchers on the team, maybe there weren’t enough catchers....

So what’s the criteria for being Gay? Must you have engaged in a certain number of acts of sodomy? Is there like a federal guideline on measuring gayness?

Excuse me, but if I were designated to be not gay enough to play on any softball team, I would wear that as a designation of honor.

Judy Garland is an acquired taste. In fairness, she had a great voice (Wizard of Oz) but that’s the extent of my familiarity with her.

I loathe the Twilight books and films. It’s vampires for wussy emo kids, who I also have little patience for (I can deal with Goths, though).

I have a T-Shirt that says, “I wish my lawn were emo. Then it would cut itself.”

Did they not have enough sparkle and flair when trying to fabulous when pitching, catching, or in Left field?
