New York Giant Show Love for LGBT Athletes

The dude-centric world of sports still might have a long way to go in accepting LGBT athletes but there has certainly been progress this year. Like this new campaign from the New York Giants. In partnership with the You Can Play Project-an organization which protects the rights of LGBT athletes and sports professionals, the video features six Giants players including Victor Cruz and Prince Amukamara. Per the New York Daily News:

“You Can Play is proud to receive the Giants’ tremendous show of support,” said Wade Davis, the organization’s executive director and a former NFL player. “The entire Giants organization has committed to inclusion for all, including LGBT athletes and fans. The vocal support of alumni like Harry Carson, the Giants’ front office staff, and current players sends a giant message to all sports fans, especially young fans everywhere. We are thrilled that the Giants are leading the charge in the NFL for LGBT inclusion.”

Way to Giants! Here’s hoping other teams follow your lead.
