This is definitely a huge step for the gay community, so far he's gotten nothing but positive support. I think this will lead to a lot of other pro athletes to come out as well. This will definitely be an historic day in the future.

Wow, that's awesome. It's nice to see that he's being supported. Definitely a big step for the gay community, like you said :)

Good for him. Lets see if others follow his steps. In today's world, I don't know why some people still have a problem with this, but I know some groups will make a big deal about this.
