Are US Soccer and ESPN Endorsing Same-Sex Marriage?
There are a couple of ads that ESPN runs on the eve of US National team games that show various soccer mad fans who are unable to do their jobs because they are watching the game. One features a man baking a weding cake. At the end of the ad, he replaces the groom at the top of the cake with what appears to be a trophy top soccer player.
A couple of my friends told me about the ad and warned me to look very carefully. I finally got to see the ad from the beginning and sure enough, I think I saw what they wanted me to see. The baker looks at the wedding invitation and it says "Gaetjens-Patenaude Wedding."
Joe Gaetjens was the Hatian-born US striker that scored the lone goal against England in that legendary game at the 1950 World Cup. Bert Patenaude was a player with the Fall River Marksmen who scored a hat trick in the 1930 World Cup, the first player from any country to do so. Under Patenaude's leadership, the team came in third place, the best the United States has ever done in that tournament.
Nice of EPSN and US Soccer to give a shout out to these folks, but, why two men? I mean, the wedding cake is for a man and a woman. Couldn't one of them have been, I dunno, Overbeck or Akers? I'm asking, that's all.
Hasta la proxima. Do zobaczenia.
