A brave young man. http://espn.go.com/espn/otl/story/_/id/10429030/michael-sam-missouri-tigers-says-gay
Looks like he just kicked the door wide open.......for AJ McCarron to walk right thru AJ's probably breathing a sigh of relief with Manti Teo, in bed, together. Seriously good for him, but who really cares it's a shame the internet is exploding and this will be the talk of the draft/season.
I found it interesting that he said when he arrived at the Senior Bowl, the players already knew. I don't think this will be as much of an issue in the NFL as most people think it is.
One of the sports radio guys in Houston said that he was rated as the 90th best prospect when he announced but has now fallen to #160. Sounds like he has come out before (to his teammates, friends, etc.) but now felt like he had to make a statement about it since he would surely be asked about it by NFL GMs in the next couple of months. I haven't read the story yet but hopefully will get a chance later.
This will be a non-issue in about 3-4 years. It's just a bit of a media circus right now because. Next.
I guess I am just a dunce, I don't see the story in this. If the guy can play football who gives a damn if he likes dick, I don't have to date him. This country has some ass backwards priorities.
The question now is for whatever team drafts him does their defense get one of those catchy nicknames? If the Vikings get him they could reprise The Purple People Eaters The Legion of Flame New York Suck Exchange The Black Hole Defense 10 and a half men Boyz from the Closet Will Sam's walk on music be The Village People's Macho Man
I bet he leads the league in sacks his rookie year, pun intended.....couldn't help myself, going straight to hell and I know it.
