A long time sports announcer in Dallas had a little rant when Michael Sams came out last week. Basically he supports Sams but his reasoning was that Sams had come out to his Missouri teammates and had no issues this past fall, yet people are proclaiming how he will be practically molesting his teammates in the locker room of an NFL team. Then he went on to say that pro NFL players can “drag their girlfriend down the stairs by her hair” or “kill an innocent person while driving under the influence” (Dallas cowboy players?) and we continue to cheer them during the game. Interesting point about the crap we ignore for sports.
xshub has said that the gay players that have come out are marginal at best, not the top players by any stretch, and will be drafted BECAUSE they are gay when they otherwise would not be high on the list.
