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.

“Married” by a Breeder?

“A male airline flight attendant is a homosexual????”

So we now know how Welts and the Flight Attendant meet. “The Mile High Club”

> Off the rim and in.

Gotta be careful -- if it hits the rim too hard it'll just bounce and you'll have to try again.

Straight in through the hole is the way to go -- SWISHHH!!

I am surprised that he didn’t change the name of the team to the “Rainbow” Warriors. Ugh this kind of stuff makes me sick.

[txnativegop]

is there a homo equivalent of the term “cougar” because that is what this creep appears to be. :::shivers:::

[txnativegop]

the latter is the name of a band and a pretty good one too. LOL

Any truth to the rumor that he’s going to change their name to the San Francisco Ferries?
