Progress in the Acceptance of Gays?

In reviewing some local news, I came across this article...
http://www.todaystmj4.com/news/trends/6714431.html

The article has revealed that 72% of heterosexual adults say that they would not change their opinions about their "favorite" athletes if they found out the athlete was gay. I am encouraged by this progress.

This sounds quite simple, but at the end of the day, we should base our decisions on the person's ability and athletic prowess, not his or her sexual orientation.

Though I am encouraged by this news...we still have some work to do.
