Five members of the Tampa Bay Rays refused to wear a Gay Pride logo on their jerseys and caps last weekend.
Jason Adam said that for "faith-based" reasons, the five pichers -- himself, along with Jalen Beeks, Brooks Raley, Jeffrey Springs, and Ryan Thompson -- could not wear the logos. The pitchers were not judging gay people, oh, of course not, why would you even think such an awful thing, they simply did not want to "encourage" that "lifestyle" and "behaviour".
Adam mantained, despite basically saying the exact opposite: "We love these men and women, we care about them, and we want them to feel safe and welcome here.
