1. would not be shocked at all--if he falls in the draft i hope he falls to the packers
we need the help
Interesting situation.Doesn't matter. Announcing he's gay guarantees him a slot on an NFL team. Failure to hire him means the NFL is homophobic.
Is this guy a good draft pick?
Don't drop the soap.
obama just discovered his new favorite football player.
...As also noted by commentators, it's likely the Commish will lean on someone to take him just to forestall any bad press. I'm sure there will be lots of whining and probably a lawsuit about bullying and homophobia after he gets to whatever team does take him. It'll probably sell a lot of football tickets to fags, though.
Outside of a few teams that are more into marketing then winning he is a damn if you do,damn if you don`t prospect.
Few will want a middle round quality rookie to be a media attraction yet,as said above,if a team is in need for a possible lineman or linebacker and they pass on him accusations will fly.
The Rooney Rule requires National Football League teams to interview minority candidates for head coaching and senior football operation jobs. It is sometimes cited as an example of affirmative action, though there is no quota or preference given to minorities in the hiring of candidates. It was established in 2003.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooney_Rule
I'm sure Obama will mention him within the next week or so.He'll give a shout-out right before some imporant speech or another.
we have this - alleged - poofter
There isn't any "Alleged" about it, he came out of the closet to his college team-mates earlier, and now took this public himself.
Personally I could give a shit less, like I say, I don't really follow pro ball. I do get tired of people jabbering about how they're homos like it was some kind of achievement, though.

Why do we care if he is gay? There have always been gay athletes.Because he is using his perversion to force the NFL to hire him.
Why would whether he was gay matter? Wouldn't it be based on how good of a player he is? Not choosing a great player because they're gay is as stupid as choosing a just mediocre play just because he is gay.

NFL DISCONNECT: CONFLICTING PUBLIC, PRIVATE REACTIONS TO GAY PLAYER
NFL prospect Michael Sam earned praise from the First Lady of the United States, New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, and Super Bowl MVP Malcolm Smith for revealing his homosexuality. But as the All-American defensive end predicted to ESPN, “There will be negativity, negative reactions.â€
Does being gay make him a better football player?
Does being gay make him a better football player?Absolutely, according to ESPN.

Which ever team picks him up as to be the "pioneers" or the "trail blazers" for a new era in pro football, I recommend they get that mediocre tackle from Miami who ran home, crying to his lawyer mommy about being "bullied". That way they can have the best feel-good season ever.
Wouldn't it discombobulate the DUmmies and other liberals if the Washington Redskins picked him in the draft.
The first "out" homo in the NFL should be named Brucey Woosie, he should have played at San Francisco State, and he should be a Tight End who hopes next season to become a Wide Receiver.
.
Then every game could have a happy ending.
What a great addition to the chemistry of your team.
Every team in the league is praying he'll be signed by someone else.
No doubt there's already a minuscule number of homos already in the league, like the goofball with the imaginary girlfriend, but there's a difference between a quiet closeted homo and a outspoken flaming queer like this guy.
What a great addition to the chemistry of your team.
Some at ESPN & other places are comparing him to Jackie Robinson. :whatever:
Jackie Robinson didn't suck cock.
That is all.

Jackie Robinson was also a Republican. The verdict is out on Michael Sam.
Rush got fired for saying the media wanted a black quarterback to do well.
Whatever you say, don't say that the media wants a gay black to do well in the NFL.
There for a time the NAACP fought the minority status of gays because they didn't want to share their struggle with a minority of choice.
They seem to have backed off from that position in recent years.
Oh poor victimized me, a southern, white, straight, male....I don't get no respect.
Did ya see the pic of Dangerfields tombstone?One of a kind that Rodney.
It says, and I quote, "There goes the neighborhood"!
Classic Rodney! The guy still makes us laugh after his move to be God's jester!

Gave you a consolation, "affirmative action" :hi5: , just to piss off the lurking DUmbshits. You didn't do anything to earn it, just a compensation for not being born a Moose-limb bastard in Kenya. :cheersmate::lmao: Seems to be about all I have going for me.... :lmao:
Something is not right about this feels like a staged event.
