Earlier this year Donal Og Cusack, the goalkeeper for Cork's hurling team and one of the most prominent players in GAA in Ireland came out publicly. There has been a generally positive reaction. His biography goes into some detail about his experiences: he told his teammates some years ago and his family, and there was lots of rumours (and some terrace abuse) but most people seem to admire him for it.

Infallible he may be; unfellable clearly not.
