Why I Love the Sedin Twins: Reason #3

Because Henrik and Daniel Sedin support the You Can Play Project, an organization dedicated to eliminating homophobia in sports. Currently, the televised ad campaign is focused largely on hockey but the project is applicable to all other sports too.

As stated on the You Can Play Project website: Locker rooms should be safe and sports venues should be free from homophobia. Athletes should be judged on talent, heart and work ethic, not sexual orientation. 

I'm impressed that the Sedin Twins are willing to publicly take a stand against continued homophobia in sports. There are still lots of professional players who won't.
