Phoenix Suns forward Grant Hill appeared on CNN's American Morning to discuss the new anti-homophobia PSA that he recorded with teammate Jared Dudley for the NBA and GLSEN. "It's wrong. We are in 2011. We need to understand that words have meaning," the NBA superstar said. "And as a parent, we need to teach children this."
Hill also talked about the coming out of his boss, Phoenix Suns CEO Rick Welts, and the larger issue of gays in sports. "Some guys who plays sports think they have to be 'manly' and say these things," said Hill. "But they don't [have to]."

That was great.
Now if only our pastors could have half the integrity and thoughtfulness of Grant Hill.
