The Silliest Things

As if the New England Patriots don’t have enough problems with their star player Tom Brady being out with injury for the full season. The Patriots are always big winners on the field. Off the field, a controversy has develped that has never before been revealed to the public. Teammates of a star defensive player have become wary walking around naked or taking showers with him cause they recently found out his most intimate secret - he has a boyfriend. “Many players on the team are in shock over it,” a team source told IUC. “No one wants to shower around him cause they’re worried he might inspect their private parts. It has become a very uncomfortable situation for everyone from the players to the coaches to the wives of the players.”
Homophobic attitudes are rampant in professional sports. Recently an NHL player almost lost his job cause his teammates thought swung both ways, a pro golfer got death threats and a former champion boxer quit the sport entirely cause he was being harrassed for being gay. According to sports sociologist Abe Goldman at least one in every 11 pro athletes is gay.
