Kudos to Hugo Schwyzer! Now this is great investigating journalism. Schwyzer's theory is every country where gay marriage is legalized, their sporting teams do phenomenally well. For example: * Spain legalizes gay marriage in 2005 - Spain wins Euro 2008 * Canada legalizes gay marriage in 2005 - Canada sees biggest medal win at the 2006 Winter Olympics * South Africa legalizes gay marriage in 2006 - South Africa wins 2007 Rugby World cup * Massachusetts legalizes gay marriage in 2003 - Do you see many upset Red Sox and Celtic fans? Schwyzer goes on to predict championship seasons for USC football, UCLA basketball, the Lakers and Anaheim Angels if voters don't overturn the California Supreme court ruling. Also noted on Andrew Sullivan The Daily Dish: after Denmark introduced gay marriage in 1989, they went on to win the European World Championships in 1992. Simply coincidence?

We could just have all our straight soldiers go and take over Spain, South Africa, and Canada... then we'd have all of their awesome sports teams anyways...
