Gay, out sportsmen

I usually save this stuff for my other LJ, but this time I'm sharing it here.

I'm not sure about accessing this link outside the UK, so I apologise in advance. Here's an interview from last night (starts about 30 minutes into programme) with Nigel Owens, who's one of the world's top rugby refs. Great insight into his struggles about coming out and the fantastic reaction he's received within the sport.

And here's another guy who's just come out (it doesn't matter if you don't undertand what hurling is - it's a huge sport in Ireland).
