The LA Galaxy won the MLS Cup today over the New England Revolution in overtime 2-1.

Celebrating the championship is openly gay LA Galaxy soccer player, Robbie Rogers. Clearly this dispels the idea that gay athletes are not up to the job.

Not only up to the job, Rogers helped his team win the championship.

Get with it professional sports team owners - make the environment safe for gay players and they can contribute.

Congrats to the LA Galaxy and Robbie Rogers for a spectacular season!

This MLS Cup is for so many people my teammates, family and friends. The fans obviously and for everyone that thought it would never be possible. Thank you #LAGalaxy
