Whitlock pointed out that it seems like Sam is taking advantage of his position and it’s evident by him selling his own merchandise online:
“I feel duped. Again, he’s got a website up selling t-shirts – it’s a merchandise store. This all looks like a cash grab more than a guy that wants to be a great football player as he has said. I don’t wanna come down too hard on Michael Sam, he comes from a very difficult background with his family and as we saw on draft day he was not surrounded by family as most people are on draft day, he was surrounded by two of his handlers and his boyfriend. You have to wonder if he’s not being manipulated and influenced because everyone that I know that knows him as a football player says he’s very passionate about football, but here he is now as a 7th-round pick, a guy who is a longshot to make the roster, he’s now involving himself with a reality TV show, he’s got a website up hawking t-shirts, his agents cut a deal to be producers on this show, his publicist cut a deal to be a producer on this show, again it just doesn’t pass the smell test in terms of authenticity. It’s disappointing because I think whoever is maneuvering him needs to understand, the most important thing he has to do is make the football team. If he doesn’t make the football team all their causes, concerns about the LGBT community, the selling of merchandise, it all goes away.”
Whitlock also admitted that if he was a Rams decision-maker, he’d consider cutting Sam immediately.

A flamer, flaming out.
What really puts the focus on the blood issue is the fact that blood banks recently confirmed that they still will not accept blood donations from homosexuals (which surprised me; I thought they’d fold). If you read the questionaire for donors, it is amazing how they stress “even once” in the question about sexual relations with someone of the same gender.
I remember when it came out that Tommy Morrison (Rocky’s opponent in “Rocky V”; a real boxer) had AIDS. Boxer friends of mine said he apparently knew long before the public statement because he had stopped fighting anywhere that tested for it. How creepy...
“In my mind he was drafted and billed as the “first gay player” drafted into the NFL. His football skills were pretty much ignored.”
I’m no football fan, but as I understand it he didn’t look good leading up to the draft. Now they have to let him play regardless because they would be labeled “anti-gay” if they bench or cut him.
Seventh-round picks don’t get meaningful time in exhibition games, either. He’ll get the fourth quarter of the first two games to try to make his case and if he’s not great, he’s gone. Or at least he should be.
If he works for ESPN he will not be taken to the woodshed, he’ll be fired. Cut and dry. AND, will apologize. If not he will never work again.
“Ah, but Whitlock gets a pass, cuz a brotha can call a sham brotha out”
The average black man absolutely despises a black man who’s a fag. So he will be fired.
Jason Collins is also a fraud. He shacked up with a 6-4 blonde for years and was planning on marrying her. She said she had no idea he was a fag. In otherwords he said he was a fag for the money and to make a team as the “first gay NBA player”.
I wonder if OKRA will trivialize the Los Angeles Clippers if she buys them. This bitch is going to jam her view of homosexuality down the throats of the country. Is that worse than Sterling?
