Personally, I feel for Chad, it can't be easy for a sportsman to hide/assume his attraction for men.
I mean you can see it in the NFL for one - being gay is still a big no-no and career ending. That's why Chad plays the alpha dickhead persona.
These posts should've ended any discussion about Chad's assholeishenss. Anyone piling on him for being an asshole like the rest of them or defending them when they were assholes has clearly never played team sports competitively at any level whatsoever, or even been in a frat for that matter.
It's not just the NFL and it's not just the USA like some were trying to point out, it's far worse in other cultures like India or the Middle East. There is a ton of homophobia in team sports in general which is directly tied to the homosexual-themed hazing; to them, the most embarrassing and degrading thing they can do to a new teammate to haze them is for them to do 'gay stuff' like shoving things up their ass. Come to think of it there's lots of gay stuff to do with team sports, not just related to hazing.
This is a real story from two different clubs, a rowing club and a field hockey club, thankfully I didn't have first-hand experience: as a 'team-bonding activity', the guys would stand in a circle and jerk off, cumming on a cracker; whoever came last would then have to eat the cracker. Add that into the next chapter DPC, I dare you.

Make a scene where Dawe brings that idea up and describes it to them and makes it sound like the coolest thing ever, totally in character for him.
Either way Chad's behaviour tracks 100% with how actual gays would behave in a sports team which makes me think DPC has had some second-hand experience with that or heard about it from a friend.
