....While Sam is a really good player -- not a great one -- the NFL is promoting him as one of the biggest spectacles at the combine....

The NFL is promoting it that way because a lot of people are interested in seeing Sam’s workout.

Just wait until someone hits him too hard, and Holder tries to prosecute it as a hate crime.

Wonder when a player will come into the draft announcing “I’m straight. I’m a normal person. I’m in Biblical alignment with God’s will.” Will the press say “what a brave individual this guy is. Going against all the PC B.S.”

What agent in their right mind would encourage a “coming out party” for a prospect? Whatever becomes of this media frenzy, Sam chose to bring it on himself by making a big deal of his sexual preference. Instead of a football player who just happens to be gay (Jerry Smith of the Redskins), he is now known first as a gay man who plays football. Apparently this is to get him selected in the first round, kind of an NFL version of affirmative action.

Didn’t that basically happen with Tim Tebow? The media hates him.

“...to remove the societal moral guardrail?”

Post modernism. It tears down the existing power structure.

Sam was always a fourth round pick, at best, that’s why he chose to play the sodomy card. He got what he and his agent wanted, tons of attention and pressure on someone - anyone - in the NFL to draft him.

In the most calculating and crafty of ways Michael Sam is leveraging his sexual preference into the public eye. He may likely be a total bust in the NFL, but Michael Sam will be called “the first” and will earn unending adulation and attention that he and his agent will turn into cash.

What is the only reason the Jason Collins got a 10 DAY contract? For no other reason whatsoever than to legitimize him by forevermore forcing everyone to refer to him as, “former NBA player, Jason Collins”. It’s a total scam, but’s that’s how the Left works, through deceit.
