‘no one wants the distraction’ of how bad a player he is. Gay-ness aside he sucks.

Michael Sam was dropped by the NFL because.... he just wasn’t very good.

This is the sad state of our society. Sooner or later it won't surprise me to see lawyers begin bringing lawsuits against the NFL in order to force quotas for gay players, regardless of their on field capabilities.

If Michael Jordan was gay, any team in the NBA would have been thrilled to have him on their roster regardless of his sexual orientation simply due to his playing ability.

But, no, emotional know it alls (mostly women who think they know what's best for just about every and any situation but there are plenty of guys out there just as arrogant) will demand “fairness” and attempt to force their emotional beliefs upon the rest of us since they know better than “old fashioned” people who don't understand modern society.

The way professional sports have been going, I would think the actual game has become the ‘distraction.’

How many straight guys got dropped from the Rams?

No one’s fussing about them, we just assume they weren’t good enough to make the team.

And we don’t know what they do with their genitalia - as it should be.

Sam’s absence removes the need for a head coach.

Michael Sam was cut by the Rams because he can’t play linebacker, he’s too small too play the run and his only viable skill is rushing the passer. So he’s a one-dimensional defensive end trying to find a spot on a team which has the best defensive line in the league. He got cut because the Rams had better alternatives. He might get claimed by some team without so much talent on the defensive line as a 3rd down pass rushing DE.

“Blame that on ESPN...”

Nope, I blame it on Sams. Maybe he should have just played football and not tried to make a “statement”. If not for that ESPN would never have had a story to publicize. Of course if he had just tried to play ball and failed...no one would even know the guy’s name outside of family and friends.

I’m just thankful that Jerruh didn’t bring him to Dallas. The Cowboys have enough problems without this distraction.

I will simply state that the same media that mourns Michael Sam's being cut is the very same media that cheered Tim Tebow being cut from the New England Patriots.

Gay Loving Hyopcrits, the entire lot of 'em.

Whatever, but when we “out of love” accept the lifestyle that the Bible refers to as an abomination, we are hurting children

Jesus warns us what could happen to us if we harm one of his little ones!

To accept this lifestyle in others is to tell children it`s a option for them, hence we are harming children.

True love would be to say NO to their lifestyle at every chance.

He should have kept his personal life to himself and played football. Nobody to blame but himself.

Dungy was right, no one wants a homo in the locker room. Especially when he’s sub par on the field. He’ll never work in this business again. There is no affirmative action for homos in the NFL, at least not yet. Flame away.

Wood should know better. Football fans and teams could care less about his personal life if he could help win games.

Well, dropping him is just gay.
He’s a fabulous player.
He’s all over the other team’s ass.
Sad that he’s being pushed out the back door.
I hope he overcomes this thing.

Maybe, just maybe, he couldn’t hack the level of play.

Michael Sam was dropped by the NFL because 'no one wants the distraction', claims Buffalo Bills star as gay football player tweets upbeat message

Yeah, that's what they said about Tim Tebow. Sam was dropped because he lacks the ability to play football at the pro level. If he had the talent then he could be whoever he wanted to be and be a major media distraction and he'd still be with the Rams

Ross Tucker publicly wondered on Twitter why 'Michael Sam performed much better than most expected and still isn't even on a practice squad?'

If memory serves Sam was saying after he was drafted that he should have gone in the first two or three rounds. I'd say that given his boasting he played nowhere near as well as he expected.

Who cares why he was cut? He was cut because he wasn’t worth a paycheck.
