According to polls and surveys America has never been readier for gay marriage, gay sportsmen - just plain gayness, that is until they kiss.

by Newsdesk | 18th May 2014

Huffington Post has revealed stats that show 47% of Americans thought that EPSN broadcasting the now famous kiss between Michael Sam and his boyfriend Vito Cammisano was inappropriate, even though players kissing their girlfriends and wives is commonplace.

Up to 20% of people polled would disapprove of their sports team hiring an openly gay player.

Michael Sam made history last week when he became the first openly gay footballer to be drafted into the NFL.
