I Died On A Cross-Trainer Getting In Shape For You: ESPN Just Did An Unscientific Poll:

…that said 92% of NHL players support marriage equality.


92%.


Of NHL players.


I find that incredibly awesome.



I can’t help but think of what the backlash against the league would be if they did an actual poll



A) Welcome to Canada?


B)…




It’s true that more players are Canadian, but the same poll said a majority (if a smaller one) of the NFL ALSO supported marriage equality.


I know it’s small thing. But maybe it isn’t, maybe kids who look up to sports stars will get a different message than the non-stop jocks vs. non-jocks bullying that has taken place forever. Maybe bullies might even have a bit of pause…if the toughest, strongest, meanest athletes are pro-marriage equality, I don’t know, that might actually mean something in the long run.


Just a hopeful thought.
