Hello, I was just looking for information about the game and stumbled here. After reading the article, I set up an account just to say thank you for writing this. I see comments here and elsewhere about this is a league PR stunt and it makes me angry that even when the players are on tv saying it's their decision (while the league tried to make them play), some people just aren't getting this through their thick heads. People shouldn't have to do this just to beg for equality. This is a human rights issue. What normally adjusted human being would welcome the thought of another human not receiving the same benefits and courtesies as themselves? We're all human, man. We all just want to be able to exercise the rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness that was baked into the constitution (though it wasn't with us in mind at the beginning). Writing this took guts and I am grateful to you for writing this and I hope it reaches the people who need it
