There are plenty of gay athlet who are speakg out and leadg the way to advote for social progrs, but as Col explaed, some folks simply don’t want the attentn. This is one of the many reasons there are few openly gay male athlet pro sports.

The other shoe seemed about to drop last week's Amsterdam-set episo when Trent followed Col to a gay bar, promptg the athlete to swiftly ex wh the wrer on his heels. Three episos to s third — and possibly fal — season, the sports edy TV seri Ted Lasso jt revealed that one of s regular characters is gay and closeted. “We’ve known for a while that Col was gay, ” Hunt told the U.
Hunt said that he and the show’s wrers always tend to troduce a gay character on the show’s fictnal team, but opted to have an existg character e out rather than stg someone new. They even toyed wh the ia of revealg that Col was gay and closeted Season 2, but stead merely seed the ia wh a le which the character mentns Grdr.
But, like all sports, football really is for everyone, and that’s beg more and more apparent as the lik of Josh Cavallo and Jake Daniels start to speak up as profsnal players who jt happen to be gay. At bt, this was a major oversight, and at worse, this absence rerced the notn that gays and sports jt don’t mix.
