THE first openly gay former NBA player said prejudice against homosexuals is rife in British sport, especially football. Retired British player John Amaechi on Wednesday described anti-gay sentiment in sporting bodies and on the field as a "massive problem" that was often ignored or "relegated". The former player for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Orlando Magic and Utah Jazz, singling out football, said "if you compare their emphasis on racism to what they've done on homophobia it's an embarrassment."
