On the serious note. Ed doesn't understand a very important concept. It's called team chemistry. A player coming out of the closet will upset team chemistry. It's just the way it is.
If I was a GM and had an openly gay player on the team, that player will be released for strictly that reason. Without chemistry, a team can't win.
So?? Who cares about that? We're talking "gay rights" here, and that trumps everything. (/sarcasm)
