The sports world took to Twitter today to celebrate the Supreme Court of the United States' decision in Obergefell v. Hodges, which has legalized same-sex marriage across the country.
In 1967, interracial marriages were legalized. If that had not happened, my wife and I would not be able to in union. Love should ALWAYS win
