A British study has reported that more than 1/3 of American football players admitted to having sexual relations with other men. Of course, since the research was British, it’s hard to know if they’re surprised at how many or how few yank footballers are rogering each other in the shower.
The researchers seem to have defined “sexual relations” pretty broadly, as “acts intended to sexually arouse other men, ranging from kissing to mutual masturbation and oral sex.” This definition could include two frat guys getting overly friendly in the mosh pit at a Sum 41 concert, for all we know.
Sigh. If the football players at my high school hadn’t been no-necked trogs, and if my college had had a football team, this study would be a real turn-on.
Tom Brady, you’re going to have bear the weight of most of the, uh, celebratory response to this important research breakthrough. I don’t care how many babymamas you have.

That study could be a wet dream come true… All I have to say is Google the former Notre Dame QB Brady Quinn, who is currently playing for the Browns. Look him up in Google Images. I’m not suggesting anything about his sexuality, all I’m saying is “Yum”.
Okay. But here’s the catch.
Sample size = 47 people.
Sample quality = men who played football in high school, weren’t good enough to play in college, and *are now cheerleaders instead.*
Frankly, I’m surprised they were able to find 47 of them to survey!
It’s just like the headline from the Guardian that proclaimed Brits were over-represented on a list of the world’s 100 top geniuses, but the people surveyed were *all Britons.*
But with all this gay footballer talk, it’s going to be one hell of a NovemBEAR.
“kissing to mutual masturbation and oral sex.” sounds like a date to me ! i do love that term ‘rogering’ though.. gets me horny for all of the above.
Trust me, Rob, had you seen the now departed football team, you’d have concluded the study was even more worthless than the sample suggested… Cowboys are secretly, frequently fond of each each other, no news there…
