Adam Oates - same era. |
I've just heard about Oates recently.
Back in the day it was almost common knowledge that Stephane Richer was gay.
And who could forget all those Wendle Clark rumours.  |

I think the question should be, is pro sports ready for its athletes to come out of the closet? |
I think it's unfair to characterize this behavior as gay. The idea that men expressing comraderie with one another through physical gestures is gay is the result of extreme anti-homosexual thinking. |
I dont care if people are gay, I'm just saying it all seems pretty gay. You dont have to be so defensive, I am not judging you fox. |

Fox can't take jokes about gays. Just don't mention it if you don't want to talk to him. He's too wrapped up in his politics. (And for the record I DIDN"T mention religion or Christianity in this posting). |

There was an aussi rugby league player in the nineties who was openly gay (blonde fella- any antipodeans care to help me out with a name?)
aaanyway the curious thing was that he was an 'enforcer' or extremely rough tackler - a total hard man, brought onto the field to fvck people up. I think gender studies kinda people call this hypermasculinity. |

| They may get hot and bothered and their blood will get pumping in the locker room, which means they may put in more effort and have more energy. I say go with it! |
