The three men are seeking US$75,000 each for emotional distress and to invalidate the alliance's findings on the men's sexual orientations and to reinstate their team's second-place finish. MSNBC.com reported in 'Not gay enough for softball team?':
According to the lawsuit, the three California men were on a softball team called D2 that advanced to the championship game in Seattle. During the game, play was stopped several times after the team that lost to them in the semifinals protested that D2 was in violation of a league rule permitting no more than "two heterosexual players" on a team.
Following the championship game, which D2 lost, Apilado, Charles and Russ were each separately called into a conference room in front of more than 25 people for a "hearing" by the Gay Amateur Athletic Alliance to determine whether each was "heterosexual" or "gay," the lawsuit says.
The men say they were forced to answer "highly personal and intrusive questions" about their sexual interests and private life, including whether they were "predominantly attracted to men" or "predominantly attracted to women."
At one point during the proceedings, the lawsuit alleges, one of the plaintiffs was told: "This is the Gay World Series, not the Bisexual World Series."

Her dad and step mother Joan runs a vineyard in northern Michigan and are neighbors with my parents on Little Traverse Bay, she once gave me parenting advice about not letting her kids watch TV until they are five, but I broke her rules already with this week's Episode of Glee
When are they gonna let the Asian cute guy sing a song and have some meaningful dialogue? Who is he by the way?
Anyway, I think its cool bisexuals are playing softball with the gay boys and having fun together... most of us aren't really into gay apartheid by those crazy gay activists
I wonder what is "gay enough"? lol
oh come on, you know that we can't measure the gayness!
Some times i wonder when there is so much issue in this world such as world hunger, child abuse, natural disasters, rape, murder... etc etc..
it hard to imagine one who take such issue and take advantage of making $$ out of it.
