A couple months ago, Outsports set out on asking questions of the commissioners of the Big Five men’s pro sports leagues in North America. To review, they are: NFL, NBA, MLB, MLS, NHL.
In that time, one league has refused to have its commissioner answer LGBTQ-inclusion questions from Outsports: the NHL. This isn’t a big surprise. When you tell a commissioner of a major pro sports league he’s you’re “Asshole of the Year,” it’s unlikely he’s going to want to talk with you.
