I'm not into sports much (though I will watch the Superbowl in a couple days)...this VERY LONG article about Drew Robinson (San Francisco Giants), though, entirely got my full attention. A VERY poignant and intense article about his suicide attempt, which he survived...not unscathed, but a very surreal and surprising outcome for somebody who shot himself in the head. He is actually back on the 2021 baseball roster, in some way or another (TBD) and, though his journey is rocky, he's finally gotten control of his life.

This may be the best article I read about anything in 2021.

I warn you, again, that this article is VERY long.

I'm very into rugby (union rules, league rules are a lot rougher) mainly because I really enjoyed playing it at school. It is also a good sport to work out frustration.

Plus it's a sport where a bunch of guys often end up piled on top of eachother whats not to like? But in all seriousness different people like different things.

I watch sports since my whole life and the interest is to 100% about sports.
I watch men and women.

I never understood gay men who watch only female sports (for example only WTA, but no ATP).
To watch because of other reasons than the sport itself won't last long.

I just recently came out and have been having a hard time making gay friends that share similar interests with me. I consider myself a pretty laid-back guy that has a fond love for sports (baseball, soccer, and basketball in particular, GO DODGERS!!). Sports are my go-to source for entertainment. Hell, sports is what got me through all the difficult times when I was in the closet.

That right there is exactly enough to prove that sports are not homophobic! Some people get great therapeutic value from playing sports. I know a few people myself who got through their toughest moments in the closet by getting involved in stuff like that.

Are there homophobes in sports, hell yes. There are homophobes in literally every aspect of our society. There are even homophobes WITHIN the gay community. I know, shocking right? But that does not mean sports themselves are homophobic. Hell, when it comes to futbol it's gotten to the point that an entire team can lose their match if their fans are being homophobic. Many sports organizations are going that route because they want to encourage diversity and make the sports more inclusive and safe for all players.

Sport is not subject to sexuality.
Some sports are better at accepting homosexuality better than others, but it will get better over time.
But, as long as there are human beings, discrimination will exist.

I am agree with you

I'm into swimming maybe that's a sport. I like some baseball players but I'm not a huge sports person.

 

[Superboy69]

Football! - especially College Football. Handsome men, tight pants, muscles, playing with balls - what more do I have to point out?!

 

[jockofstrap]

I was never cut out for sports like to watch baseball see outline cups of players, football to see outline of there jockstraps. I am true athletic supporter.

Judging by how many posts there are in this forum, not many are.
