Michael Sam, the first openly-gay player drafted into the NFL, isn't getting positive reviews.
The 25-year-old, who was taken in the seventh round last year by the St. Louis Rams, appeared at the NFL veterans combine earlier this week in a bid to impress a host of scouts.
But according to one league agent, who spoke to TMZ Sports anonymously, Sam didnt do much to improve his stock.
"My real honest opinion is that he was flat out horrible, the agent told TMZ. He did not belong out there."
Its the kind of feedback Sam received from both the Rams and Dallas Cowboys, a pair of clubs that cut the University of Missouri product from their practice squads last summer.
"He thinks he's a superstar. It would be nice if he could do something on the field to back up the attitude, the agent added.
Word arrived Sunday that Sam was at least considering a stint in the Canadian Football League if it doesnt work out in the NFL.
"He sells tickets, the agent said. He attracts fans. And from there you never know."
If you can play, you can play.
According to some, though. Sam cant at the NFL level.
It looks like our long national nightmare is finally over.
/src on/That homophobic agent needs to be identified and not allowed to represent NFL players./src off/
“He sells tickets, the agent said. He attracts fans.”
He does?
But..but..he's on dancing with the stars..doesn't that means he is an all-pro football player???? Right? Right?
Not a surprise
No evidence of it
Men are men, and the Canucks will not tolerate a flamer in the huddle, in the shower, in a pileup where blood and other fluids can easily drip onto someone else.
Maybe he could try the WNBA or something.
He could “make history” twice in one lifetime. That might be a record. The first openly “gay” freak in the CFL too. Cool!
There's always porn flicks.
I don’t know much about Michael Sam. I assume he’s a tight end, right?
how humiliating for Canada...
I wouldn't touch a straight line like that for a free weekend at Pismo Beach.
If you'll pardon the expression.
I think a NFL team should hire him. I think he can say-Beer here,Beer here!
How do you know he isn’t the wide receiver?
A commentor says Sam is good at something that rhymes with pool cushion. Never heard that before. Is it stool pushin’?
Of course he thinks he’s a superstar, he thinks just because he’s a fudgepacker that he’s entitled, the media convinced hi that he’s the best that’s ever played the game when in reality he flat out SUCKS
“It looks like our long national nightmare is finally over.”

And now it’s Canada’s problem.
Poor Canada. It doesn’t deserve this.
Maybe he can try out for The Bachelor or Survivor or sumthin’.
Oh .. wait.
I doubt it very much.
