The sports world is one of those places where there really is not okay to be gay, or at least openly. How else to explain why no major player in the NFL, NBA, NHL, or not yet out of the closet in the middle of your career? What makes the admission of Boston Herald sports columnist Steve Buckley that he gay even more impressive - and important. In a column today touches, writes:
I had this long enough. I was not only my family, friends or colleagues. And I certainly not fair to me: For many years I have outside of the gay community in Boston, but not in the game - both literally and figuratively, because I think that I 'had a career quite well in the (Gay) of Beantown Softball League.
Buckley has the merit of open with him, his colleagues, readers and sources. Buckley is one of the largest members of the Boston sports media - both through his column in the Herald and his regular appearances on sports talk radio station WEEI (that is, a tendency sometimes homophobic and macho) - so it definitely took some courage everything is cleared. Fortunately, the reaction - at least until now - has been extremely positive. While the Herald a few comments on the commissioning Buckley column length was removed (probably because they are offensive and / or anti-gay), there are still hundreds of positive reviews. And on Twitter, where no one is moderating comments, I can not find a negative reaction. Reactions that such a boy athletes Buckley Joe Haggerty, are the norm: "It takes courage to do what Boston Herald sports columnist Steve Buckley held today and is a must."
It is probably only a matter of time before negative comments about the Internet and will be of interest to the reaction of the sports-radio listening today, it is not known to be places to make the gay. But even if some comfort in the world of sport with the entry of Buckley, is expected to reach the same conclusion pealharborjob Twitter user: ". Do not change the words on the page, even when it?"
