Golden State Warriors President Rick Welts marries longtime boyfriend: ‘We made history’

It’s San Francisco. Rightly, when it comes to love, anything goes.

But one wedding this month garnered attention for breaking one of the last barriers in this country’s long fight for marriage equality. Rick Welts, president of the Golden State Warriors, married Todd Gage, a Southwest flight attendant, in Room 200.

It is believed to be the first time an executive for a professional men’s sports team married his same-sex partner. According to the Advocate, there are no out players in professional male sports and just a smattering of out executives and coaches. Same-sex weddings in the macho world of men’s pro sports were unheard of — until now.

Mayor London Breed officiated the wedding of Welts, who turns 67 Tuesday, and Gage, 44, at 11 a.m. Jan. 10. She pronounced them “spouses for life,” popped Champagne and served macaroons in the team’s colors, blue and gold.

OK now it’s 100% clear how that leftist scumbag Coach Steve Kerr shoots off his mouth about PDT and Conservatives with no ramifications.

In related news, there is no truth to the rumor that the name of the team will soon be changed to the Sodom State Warriors. The name The Butthole Surfers was considered, but, it appears that that name had already been taken.
