Hats off to gareth edwards for coming out of the closet and discussing the issue of homosexuallity in sport, granted he should have been true to himself and came out sooner before marrying his wife, but surely there must be loads of gay's in sport.

In the end, it's up to the individual to decide whether to 'Come Out' or not. In whatever decision they come to, being under pressure not to due to fear of abuse/discrimination should not have to be an issue.

Despite feeling that homosexuality is just plain wrong, you have to say that this bloke has shown some serious bottle.
