In honor of National Coming Out Day, the National Football League (NFL) released a video celebrating former LGBTQ+ players and encouraging those still in the closet to come out. The heartwarming clip features former out gay and bisexual athletes Wade Davis, R.K. Russell, Jeff Rohrer, and Ryan O’Callaghan encouraging current athletes to live freely and speak their truth. They collectively announce: “To all current players who are thinking of coming out, when you are ready, so are we.” The clip also includes notable current NFL players such as Rob Gronkowski, DeAndre Hopkins, and Calais Campbell coming together in a display of allyship...

Another stake in professional sports heart. Legalization of gay marriage has many tentacles; transgenderism, LGBTQ, child victimization and trafficking. This is why elections have consequences. I honestly believe the brilliance and morality of the one person in Amy Coney Barrett can turn this country around.

Allyship? What is that, woke, intersectional, coercion dripping with gravitas?
I'm not buying it.

Heartwarming? That's not exactly how I would characterize it. More like heartburn. I don't have the least interest in an athletes sexual preferences or what they do in the bedroom. Hard to focus on their performance on the field when disgusting images of what they do in private keep intruding.

I’m an older, southern lady, and there is nothing less appealing to me than men who don’t look and act like MEN ... kind yes, gentlemen yes, but when all is said and done, definitively stand up, defend, protect and provide! Never apologize or compromise your intended purpose!

If the NFL is looking to expand their viewership, this isn't the way to do it. Give me a break. So stupid.

Can’t wait until they change their name to the Gay Football League. Their uniforms will be smashing!

Looks to me like the NFL doesn't have many viewers left to offend. They're WAY down in their Viewership! So now add this Idiot idea to the BLM stuff and the Kneeling during the National Anthem and I expect the only people left who care about the NFL will be the Players. When they find their salary also going down due to the lack of Viewers I'm guessing it will be too late to save the League! Nobody will care enough to save them!

I haven't watched a pro football game or any pro sports for the past 2 years. When they began protesting our flag, military, police, National Anthem, and supporting Black Lives Matter. Black Lives Matter. This is a terrorist organization who's goal is to over throw our government and install their extreme mob rule. I hope all good men and women of America will just say no to pro sports and not watch games or purchase their goods. I would love to see them go completely bankrupt for supporting black thugs who continue to rape, burn, steal, kill our police, burn down our businesses, and assault those who don't support them. These are the true racist of America!

During a weak moment I watched the second half of a game this past week and thought about dropping my boycott. Boycott is back on. I don't want a lecture on any topic - blm, gay day, breast cancer awareness - I just want to watch football.

I guess the ratings weren't low enough for the NFL. So they sat around figuring how can we loose another 40% of our viewership -- wait, lets have "coming out" day!!!!! That should do it!!!
Lie-beralism hates anything that celebrates traditional masculinity. So they have destroyed everything they could that celebrated that. The Boy Scouts were killed. Masculine leading men in movies are history. And now they are going to destroy football (the last bastion of unbridled testosterone). And players, coaches, and owners are playing right into their hands!!!
Thank God my husband is one of the masculine ones. I pray that my daughter is so lucky to find a man like that in her life!!!!

They are all so far from God. Celebrating rebellion is a foolish place to be in light of eternity.

The problem I have is that the Left wants to make sexuality all of you. It's not part of you but all of you. There is so much more to being a human being.

The NFL should dress the entire league in pink uniforms and hire a bunch of drag queen cheerleaders for the half time entertainment. As far as I concerned the league sold its soul to the "woke"crowd and lost me and many others as a financial supporters. Go woke = go broke!

They are digging the hole deeper each day. Are they this stupid or blinded by "dogma"?

It's interesting how the mainstream media went out of their way NOT to report this story.
