Michael Sam, the NFL’s first openly gay player before being drafted was cut by the team that drafted him in the 7th round, the St. Louis Rams.\u00a0 Talk to any expert about only football, and they all say pretty much the same, it would be difficult for Sam to make the Rams.<\/p>\n
Last year the Rams were one of the top teams in sacks, 3rd with 53.\u00a0 The Rams were already deep with talent with defensive ends.\u00a0 There was no guarantee that Sam would even make the team.\u00a0 So when he was cut it surprised no one except the left-wing media.<\/p>\n
How dare the Rams cut their darling, their hero!<\/p>\n
And the typical liberal response came.\u00a0 People like Luke Russert from MSNBC.<\/p>\n
“The reason Michael Sam isn’t on any active rosters isn’t because he can\u2019t play and isn\u2019t because of the media circus, the reason why there is a slowness to signing him to a practice squad is probably because he’s gay.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
There is no mention of what football scouts said, only the fact that he is gay.\u00a0 Then you have the NFL working to get a team to resign Sam.\u00a0 Is there another instance of the NFL stepping in for another player like this?<\/p>\n
One can say in response to Russert, the only reason he is on a team is because of the media circus you and others are spreading due to the fact he is gay.\u00a0 If they focused on his actual football talent, they might understand why he was cut.<\/p>\n
It appears Tony Dungy was correct when asked about why he would not draft Sam, because he did not want the media circus.\u00a0 People like Russert have proven Dungy right.\u00a0 Even the Cowboys who signed Sam to the practice squad have already expressed doubts of his ability to reach professional level.<\/p>\n
Liberals should take this lesson, fans don’t go to games for a players sexuality, but to see their team win.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
