#1 HS coach said the team should refrain before games too - but he never thought to specify gays in his prohibition.

#4 Maybe you dipwads should have thought of that before choosing Qatar for a host nation?

Or maybe it will be an intense learning experience for the world in 2022 about muzzie intolerance?

My prediction: Much wailing and gnashing of teeth, scapegoat sacrifice, nothing changes and is quickly forgotten.

#6 If the pope had requested that gays refrain from sex during a World Cup held in Rome, do you suppose that Mr. Blatter would have been equally deferential? The analogy may not be perfect, but it's close enough to make the point.
