The Baltimore Ravens brutalized the Oakland Raiders on Nov. 11 55-20. It was the most points scored in Ravens history. Yet some Raiders still tracked down Baltimore linebacker Brendon Ayanbadejo and congratulated him on the same-sex marriage victories at the ballot box on election day.
According to TMZ, three Raiders players congratulated Ayanbadejo for his work supporting marriage equality.
“I remember their names, but I will keep that to myself,” the football pro told reporters. “Ethnicity-wise, it was two white guys and one black guy. Ethnicity plays an important part in this movement.”
Many see the actions of fellow NFL players as evidence that the league is closer to acceptance than many believe.
