49ers assistant coach Katie Sowers becomes first openly LGBT coach
CBS Sports ^ | August 22, 2017 | Jared Dubin

Posted on 08/22/2017 1:19:23 PM PDT by Zakeet

Earlier this offseason, the San Francisco 49ers made Katie Sowers the second female full-time coach in NFL history. Kathryn Smith, who spent the 2016 season as a special teams quality control coach for the Buffalo Bills, was the first.

On Tuesday, Sowers herself made history, when she opened up to OutSports and become the first openly LGBT coach in the NFL, male or female.

"No matter what you do in life, one of the most important things is to be true to who you are," Sowers said. "There are so many people who identify as LGBT in the NFL, as in any business, that do not feel comfortable being public about their sexual orientation. The more we can create an environment that welcomes all types of people, no matter their race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, the more we can help ease the pain and burden that many carry every day."

[”There are so many people who identify as LGBT in the NFL”]

Oh, yeah, probably close to 100 billion.

Just like Colin Kapernick identifies as a quarterback.

Goodbye NFL. Good riddance.

OK, I haven’t gotten past the “notion” that a woman can coach NFL football players. Then, I’m going to wonder how long before this woman gets Kaepernicked.

I am not sure hoe to respond here. Now we have Gay Women coaches in the NFL.

My opinion is that maybe all this is going too far. The NFL looks like it is immolating and emasculating itself all at once.

My father died at the end of 2016 and we enjoyed football together, college and pro, but my interest is in all of it now has waned considerably. So I doubt I will watch much anymore, the fun is all gone. I am 62 and frankly the games and players just aren't what they were when I started watching as kid back in the 1960’s. I lived for Sunday NFL & AFL games, Joe Namath was my hero, among others. If someone were to have a cable channel devoted to running replays of the Pro Games from the 1960’s and 1970’s so I could enjoy them along with the great announcers that had then, like Curt Gowdy, I would watch.

I know I cannot eat in a restaurant or fill up my gas tank, until I find out if anybody working there, is homo. It’s so important to know who my server is humping, or how they have sex.

Well I’m happy for her. Now what that he!! does that have to do with her job?

I don’t tell everyone and my coworkers about my sex life and I don’t want to hear it from anyone else — gay or not. For some reason, homosexuals are compelled to tell everyone about it.

I’m sorry...does anybody really care what her sexual orientation is? I mean do we say “Joe Paterno first coach who hated broccoli? He like boxers instead of briefs”. I mean who cares!! The more attention we give to these losers that want to be special for getting up in the morning, the more we have to keep reading about this nonsense. Coach the damn football team and call it a day thank you. Everything does not have to be a platform for you to celebrate who you screw. It’s personal business no one really needs to know nor does anybody care.

If you aren’t a normal heterosexual human being, it’s obligatory that you reveal it to the entire universe.

She inadvertently reveals just how unnatural homosexuality is. “People can’t be themselves”? The process of destroying ones natural revulsion to unnatural acts takes a while. Once this is accomplished they don’t seem to have any trouble “being themselves”.

The in-yo-face homos care and want all of us to know it. And they control the media and madison avenue, and as long as this holds (which shouldn’t be too much longer), then we will hear about them.

So a former gym teacher is a dyke, like thousands of other lesbo gym teachers nationwide. How is this “news”? Lesbian gym teachers has been frequently parodied in films (before it became a no-go).
