Being on rugby and being gay, good or bad?

 For the perspective of Gareth Thomas' Rugby team there are many pro's and con's about him being gay. One pro is that the team will continue to be good and they get to keep their captain. Gareth even though he is gay is a very good rugby player, many opposing teams do get weirded out by him and he has had to sit out a few games. He is not happy about having to sit out on games but he will do it for his team, when needed. A con is that there might be a new rule about gays staying on sports. Gareth and his team are very worried that he will not ever be able to play again as a result of this. I would have to be one of the people who says that he can play rugby, I enjoy watching him and his team play, rugby is a very interesting sport and if you watch professionals play it is very interesting. As long as the team and coach are fine with a gay player on their team I would have to say, "Let him play!"
