Good news everyone! We have the first openly gay professional player in one of the major sports.

Awesome!

Brittney Griner also came out in the WNBA. I'm glad that this is finally being addressed in professional sports. :)


Awesome news. As a volleyball player (just uni level) myself, I can definitely relate. I've been on the team for like three years now and I have yet to see anyone admit he's gay or even look gay (I know people say that no one's gay unless they say so, but we can always have our suspicions). And I've played tons of others teams and also trained with at least 4. I find it really weird. Even in elementary, middle school and high school  I was treated as the only guy in the school (and I'm not that camp).
