    Interesting phrasing with "pack mentality" I think that's true for more than soccer.

    I heard some of the interview on the radio. He really shed light on the homophobia in competitive sport.

    It's nice to see him be open about the issues that happen in sports.

    Personally, I can say that many straight guys do "gayer" things in locker rooms than gay guys :lol:.

    LOL, that's true. I think once straight guys realize they can be physically playful and it doesn't matter if they're really into guys or girls, that will be a real mark of progress in LGBT equality.
