Popular Post freestater Posted June 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2021 https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/06/21/raiders-carl-nassib-comes-out-as-openly-gay/ Good for you, Carl. Happy Pride month! ?️? Raiders defensive end Carl Nassib came out today, making him the NFL’s only openly gay player. “I just want to take a quick moment to say that I’m gay,” Nassib said in a video he posted on his verified Instagram account. “I’ve been meaning to do this for a while now but I finally feel comfortable enough to get it off my chest. I really have the best life. I’ve got the best family, friends and job a guy could ask for. I’m a pretty private person, so I hope you guys know I’m not doing this for attention, but I think representation matters.” Nassib also announced that he is donating $100,000 to the Trevor Project, a nonprofit organization that focuses on suicide prevention programs for LGBT youth. No openly gay player has ever played in a regular-season NFL game. Michael Sam came out as gay before the 2014 NFL draft, was drafted by the Rams and played for them in the preseason, but he did not make a regular season roster. A handful of other players have come out after their playing careers ended. The 28-year-old Nassib was a third-round draft pick of the Browns in 2016 who has also played for the Buccaneers. He was the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year at Penn State in 2015. 23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post nycdan Posted June 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2021 Big moment for professional sports. Mad respect for him doing this. Hoping his teammates unilaterally embrace it and fans are more supportive than not. I'll take a moment to say that this isn't an opportunity for trolls to do troll things here. 20 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post King P Posted June 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2021 Good for him (and I mean that with all sincerity). Nassib seems like a good guy, and I'm sure he'll be accepted and embraced in the locker room. Glad he's comfortable enough to live his truth, much respect to him 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post chirorob Posted June 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2021 Good for him, and I hope this just gets to the point where someone comes out as gay, and no one cares. Not as an insult, but I don't care. As long as you and the other person or consenting, and over 18, it is none of my business, and I don't care. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhg1084 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 I feel like he’s the first major athlete to come out while still active. Michael Sam did but he wasn’t as good or high profile as Nassib. It’s 2021 I doubt any of his teammates or anyone else cares. All power to him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronx Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 A person's sexual orientation should be irrelevant to others. Why are we still making a big deal out of this topic? I think society nowadays have accepted LGBTQ. There will always be prejudice towards anything; whether is religion, race, sexual orientation and many other beliefs. Ignorance will always exist, but those people are minority in today's society. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenbloodblitz Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Wonderful! Am I supposed to applaud!? I'm sorry but I don't believe in the PC approach. This guy should keep his life private and in the bunker. It's funny how everybody preaches equality, but everybody gets their own parade every day for being different? It doesn't make any sense. The Gay Pride Parade, the Puerto Rican day parade, Saint Patrick's Day, Italian guys hanging dog dicks and flags off their rear view mirrors, hiring gay people, black people, women, and handicapped people that are unqualified for their jobs just to say that you are an equal opportunity employer? Some things are better left unchanged they don't change for the better. Every single day is ice cream day it's lettuce day it's black Freedom month when are we going to stop with this crap and stop segregating everybody? I have no intention of offending anyone and sorry if I did with this post but come on man enough already! It's National three-legged dog day? How about go to work and mind your own damn business, and your sex life happens in your bedroom and should remain private? Hey I'm just watching football and I really don't care if you're gay. That's my point. If you don't want to be singled out and you don't want attention, then don't bring it up. I don't need you to force your personal views down my throat cuz I like to watch the game of football. And I'm not going to clap for you because you're gay. I also believe that it debilitates and ruins people who struggle in situations and have strived for accomplishment to applaud them and point out that it's the first female referee. Robert Saleh is the first Muslim head coach? Ron Rivera is Latino! Who gives a f***!? Stop bringing this crap up and separating yourself cuz it goes against everything you're saying you're fighting for! You're making a mockery of your own cause. I really don't care if Ron Rivera is Latino or Robert Saleh is a Muslim. Do you? Does that make some huge difference? I don't know how the rest of the world feels but I have all kinds of friends and family and I'm from New York so this kind of crap really makes me feel weighted down. We are all different stop thinking of yourself as different because you're not. We all feel the same way. We're all f***** up somehow and there's no reason to put a spotlight on it. For what it's worth a few weeks ago in the middle of the afternoon I went to the bar and was hanging out with a Chinese dude working from Queens out here on Long Island. We were listening to Soul music and Hip Hop and buying each other shots and laughing about the Chinese food place next door. He's second generation American, he spoke perfect English. We were just two dudes who met at the bar and we were chillin and having a great time. I never thought of anything else but that. 3 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were just two dudes who met at the bar and we were chillin and having a great time. I never thought of anything else but that. instead of celebrating Salah for being the first Muslim head coach, we should be celebrating that hes the 504th human being head coach...think about it... 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or are you more interested in trumping me on my post? What I conveyed and what I texted was people should stop pointing out how different they are from everybody else. We already know we're all different so let's move forward now. Stop having parades for every person who's different. In my opinion it's an Integrity killer. To the best of my knowledge there are two NFL players who only have one hand don't you think that every single interview about them only having one hand becomes tiresome? it's the only thing they're ever recognized for right!? Don't you think a reporter for the NFL Network who's female shouldn't be considered a female reporter everywhere she goes? Is she a good reporter or not? That's all that matters. so my files in Word essay put short and simple and sweet would be stop telling everybody have different you are and that you need your own personal day or month or a celebration or parade to prove how different you are. Especially when your biggest cry is that you want to be accepted and treated equally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
