Maybe I should have used a different expression. <br />Regardless, I am not a homophobe... I just don't care. I don't care that someone is gay, black, obese, or Mexican. I suppose you could plug any of those into the message "you can play." <br />If you honestly think making a video is going to change someone's mind and prevent injustices, you're crazy. <br /><br />I do however agree with 12:32, People SHOULD be allowed to be who they are.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17196208.post-65668485403075502712012-06-14T12:26:34.972-06:002012-06-14T12:26:34.972-06:00I saw a former Merrimack player skating with the C...I saw a former Merrimack player skating with the Cup as well as the Conn Smythe trophy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17196208.post-25045258242416242312012-06-13T21:30:10.995-06:002012-06-13T21:30:10.995-06:002:12 is probably a homophobic tea-partier.

Because they both need fixing, that's why. A society needs to be able to tackle multiple issues going on at the same time.<br /><br />And, how about the fact that the players on the DU hockey team are sports atheletes and that fits perfectly with the video's message? They are not economists. Why would you rather see them make a video on how to fix the economy? That sounds rather idiotic. <br /><br />"there will always be inequality based on differences"....no shit. Does that mean you should try and do anything to fix injustices? We'd never make any progress as a society if we all had your mentality.<br /><br />"i wasn't aware that there was a huge problem with gays in sports"...obviously, you are not a gay person that has dealt with the issue. I also think if you were somewhat aware of sports media you'd be aware that it is a problem.<br /> <br /><br />Thanks for added notes 12:32.

What's wrong with that and why criticize him for how he expressed it?<br /><br />So what if he is "conservative"? Does that discredit his support? No, but being a jerk to him might.<br /><br />How about this: "Tim - thanks for being supportive. If we're going to build an environment where our sport can grow and where as many kids get into skates, and stay in them, we're going to need everyone regardless of their political perspective to be supportive of building the right environment.
