God, I wish Vince Lombardi was still alive to slap this guy around a little...
You don’t know Lombardi.
From https://www.austinchronicle.com/daily/sports/2013-02-03/the-nfl-beat-lombardi-and-kopay/
Kopay had two gay teammates on the 1969 Washington Redskins team, one was RB Ray McDonald and the other was TE Jerry Smith. Kopay described McDonald as being a little “foolish” in his flamboyant nature as it pertained to his career as an NFL player. “There were just things he did that you couldn’t do at the time under the microscope we were under, not from Coach Lombardi, but this was Washington D.C.”
Lombardi was anything but dismissive of McDonald, even given the fact that many obviously thought he was gay and a mediocre NFL player. Lombardi told running back coach George Dickson, ‘I want you to get on McDonald and work on him and work on him - and if I hear one of you people make reference to his manhood, you’ll be out of here before your ass hits the ground.”
