"You've also been checking out my ass all day". I'm sorry. Isn't that what sports are FOR? It is certainly the reason I watch football!

[@suyashawasthi2476]

Gurrrrrllllllll what the fuck!! Me too. ❤️😂

[@artemis_time5924]

no, I actually appreciate the sport

[@argobasuki1243]

I like Sport, Ass is a Bonus.

[@xxkarlosxxxxxx7233]

Jerald Collins u forgot all sports 😂... Well except Hockey... Soccer for CR7 is a must, been my crush since well high school

[@WilliamJulienNkogheOlympio]

Yes they do.

[@marcvac]

Lately, I’ve been binge watching short gay films, and this is by far one of the best ones - if not the best. Light, funny, insightful, current and relatable. Awesome job!!!

[@Sbudre]

Kyle Krieger has made some of the best shorts I've seen. I've only seen two of them.

[@SamzRodri]

We are constantly coming out and one day I hope it won't always be as scary. This was wonderful Kyle.

[@xxkarlosxxxxxx7233]

In the future there isn't a closet, everyone is who they are and accepted because it's the norm

[@KyLatimer]

“i love a good tag team” AAAAHHHH WIG !!!

“I know it’s like hard to tell I give this pretty masculine vibes” - “Oh no I could tell” 😂 hahhhahhhahahahahahagafJUAHAHAHHAS

[@juancarlos9592]

LOL

[@kandykanekelly3393]

You've also been checking out my ass all day 😂😂😂

[@MarcosWilliandaSilva]

I know he is his friend and is trying to help, but I think that coming out is a process that is different for every person, and his friend was pushing it, I didn't like it. You should be able to come out to any person when you're ready, not when people say that you have. Th'ts just my way of seeing it

[@fers.m.1977]

Friends are there to push you

[@sahilxt2688]

Yeah yeah then come out in another life idiot friends help u to come through from difficult phases ...what if they push they r helping

[@Dshelby_1980]

If it dont come up it doesnt come up, he can come out in his own timing

[@KhanhTheLearner]

I mean a push is a healthy thing too, and good friends are meant to do that to help you. In the worst case, the friend is there and ready to defend the guy coming out if the other guy is homophobic. It's not like a situation where the gay guy is deliberately outed to other people in an act of bullying or sth.

[@jonathandpg6115]

@Brandon E. Smith He didn't put anyone on the spot though.

[@ericgomez386]

Eduardo is fantastic in this. He's so natural and good comic relief.

[@max-cp1rw]

One of the best short in a long time, well filmed, good acting and it's refreshing, not boring and funny.

[@jessicammcmahon]

This film was great. Especially how you signify the importance of people being openly gay despite the stereotypes and that your true friends will accept you for who you are. I also love the use of humour throughout despite the overall message of the film tackling a very real and serious issue within the Lgbt* community, The actors cast were perfect for the role they each played. I’d love to see more of your work. 😘😘

[@treyvorable]

I know it's a short film but it was too short 😂

[@locoHAWAIIANkane]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 RIIGHT?!

[@locoHAWAIIANkane]

Like, are the follow up vids on Tumblr by chance?

[@humanbeing9618]

Hi cutie

[@tatianamckenzie5396]

Woke waaaaaaay too short

[@camecex]

It was more like a commercial

[@vanizorc]

Some people choose not to come out not because they’re scared to, but because its really irrelevant and none of the other person’s business. I'm not out at work, but that’s because it’s none of my coworkers/manager’s business to know, and I’m a private person. Not because I’m “ashamed of who I am”.

[@nathangraham1760]

vanizorc 😎🤘respect man

[@Selur91]

I totally agree with you, if you're working, playing with someone or doing anything that doesn't involve sex there's really no need to tell them what you like. I usually only come out in two occasions, if it's relevant to the conversation, or if someone is being homophobic and generalizing. Same reasons for why I don't tell the people I work with what video games I play, or what's my favourite food to my teammates.

[@marcantony9228]

Exactly. Its your own business and if you get close to someone, then its theirs too.

[@jj-one2048]

sorry, but.. i think if u are gay, u had to tell´em, because private life is just what u do...been gay is what u are.. as a gay person i know we are very different from straight man almost like a woman and straight people thinks gay people ashamed when they stay in the closet ...i talk about my lovers with straight coworkers and they about girls we laugh together and is the best way to be a free person and get some respect from everybody who knows exactly who u are ..a gay man proud and free!

[@juancarlos9592]

My best friend to out to friends and family but not at work and I support that. It's no one's business at work

[@ACONNECTIONTV]

This was sooooo gooood

[@boldybilly306]

Omg this was hilarious!! Such a creative way to send such an important message! Well done! 🙌🏾♥️

[@Linny95]

Great film discussing masculinity within sports, especially within the LGBT community. A short but great dive into the multiple layers of acceptance within sports while tackling stereotypes within the gay community by using great humour and an uplifting ending.

[@VisuvioNapoli15]

This was so poignant, relatable, refreshing, and reassuring to those people who navigate everyday life with the nervousness to stand in their truth. Absolutely outstanding work Kyle! Continue to shine your light and make impactful change in the lives of others. 👌🏾😁✊🏾

[@lilyzuber7334]

Omg this was rad Kyle, keep doing what you’re doing!!!

[@theahlawrence4007]

Way too short! That was awesome Kyle!! I busted out laughing at the end! Great film and a great message!!

[@marksaid6587]

It made me feel as if I was there hanging, and having a giggle or two, with them. Well done! Thanks for the Fantastic film, matey.

[@r.xristianmazes2035]

Great story telling Kyle. Your doing so well with these shorts. Cheers

[@ma14.27]

The way Eduardo greeted the straight friend felt so personal. I can't tell how many times I was in awkward situations because I tried to act straight out of this fear of not being accepted otherwise. Really great Short!

[@skaterguy6680]

Kyle: I’m also gay btw. I know, it’s like hard to tell. Shawn: Ahmm, yeah, no I could tell. Lol🤣

[@mr.grumps3544]

@BertasU I'm 30 years old and have NEVER met a straight guy who acts like the white gay guy in the video. Idk where you live but the straight guys where I live definitely don't act anywhere close to that.

[@thejuanpxD]

that was the funniest part.

HAHAHAHAH that was hilarious 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

I need more shorts kyle, they are so good! 3 in 9 months is not enough!

"Should we get back to the game?" Lol so funny

[@Mocalacma]

Love it! You can def see the growth in everything. Camera angles and storytelling. GET IT KYLE!

[@justbecause9747]

So much humor packed in 5 minutes! Loved it!

[@edjacksonindc]

You're telling wonderful stories, and I love the diversity in your casting. Please keep making movies!

[@estygonzalez7329]

Great film Kyle👍🏼 You should be so proud and hope more films in the near future❤️

[@scarpien]

So even though Sean knew Eduardo was checking him out the whole time he still takes off his shirt. What a tease! ;o)

[@gerardmcmillan8591]

Straight guys love to tease. I had a coworker do that to me.He keeps testing me to determine if I'm gay and I keep my guard up. Unfortunately, I'm in love with him... 😂😳

[@scarpien]

@@gerardmcmillan8591 You're right. They LOVE the attention but get upset if you tell them they're not your type. As for your situation, that sucks.

[@katelynegger4744]

I love your short films so much. Just leaving this comment so you know the hard work you put into this is being appreciated. ❤

[@richardsoucy8546]

We need more of these guys! Make it a series of videos!

[@fountainmedia4683]

What an awesome short film. Zach so ruggedly handsome. He's just the type of man, beefy stocky build, that I'm attracted to.

[@RobeDuarte]

When the credits started rolling I was like “YASSSS TEAMMMM!!!!!

[@js4370]

Nicely done, Kyle. Very fun! I don’t know much about the techniques of film, but it was very engaging. Loved the casting as well.

[@1331roland]

Kyle! This film is really well done. I’m impressed and really excited for you! 😘

[@moaadsh5729]

Omg I spit my noodles out! Love love this! Awesome filming! ❤️❤️

[@jerryannegagneliberty2253]

YES! This is amazing, Kyle! I’m speechless like holy shit.

[@hyiascynth]

Now that was cool! A confident straight man not afraid of his good friend being gay. Or even afraid of being checked out. This was all around well done!

[@JeremyMYG]

This was good! Always a fan of a positive message as well. 😀

[@peteb1206]

Fantastic short! Well written, shot and acted. Very real. Loved the punchline

[@Matkai]

I LOVE IT! A fantastic film. Congrats! 💖

[@amlelamly]

Love the film, wished it was longer.The last sentence was hilarious.

[@MrShep1973]

The "you've also been checking out my ass all day" comment was the most necessary comment in the whole film. For a brief second I was thinking is he really freaking stereotyping.. but no, he just noticed eyes on his ass.. lol

[@Walking_the_Dog]

Two thumbs up! Not what I expected at the start. Great film.

[@pandabear153]

Happy Pride young man! Thank you for the video!
