EARTH CITY, Mo. -- The St. Louis Rams released defensive end Michael Sam on Saturday, according to multiple league sources.

Sam's efforts to become the first openly gay player in NFL history came up just short in a competition against undrafted rookie Ethan Westbrooks.

Westbrooks is one of nine defensive linemen to land a roster spot.

Sam officially hit waivers Saturday at 4 p.m. ET when all NFL teams had to trim their rosters down to the league-mandated 53 players. From there, the other 31 teams will have 24 hours to put in a claim for Sam.

Wasn’t this guy defensive player of the year in the SEC Last year? Just goes to show the difference in the level of play between college and NFL. Even a top conference like the SEC...

Oh, I KNOW that he was drafted, and I KNOW that there was no possibility of discrimination. However, the homos won’t care.

There are radical, hateful homos out there who will do whatever they can to promote their ‘cause’. If they keep on repeating the ‘discrimination’ meme, continually ramming it down our throats (so to speak), eventually those who are not as aware of things as we are might start believing their lies.

No, I’m not. You should have heard announcers trying not to laugh whenever they called his name. Hilarious!

But because he doesn’t have the skills to play in the NFL.

How dare you interject facts into this thread?

Well said, FRiend, very well said. That's an apt description of sodomites.

No one will sue anybody. If the homos sued, when do you think the NEXT homo would be drafted. Won’t happen. Take it to the bank.

You do have a point, bigdaddy.

Even if they don’t sue, I still think someone...a liberal columnist, a homo, a sportswriter/sportscaster...SOMEBODY is going to squeal like a stuck pig over this.

Nah. The universal assessment was that Sam was a good football player, but not good enough to crack the Rams lineup.

The NFL is about one thing. Winning. Win and you stay. Lose and you’re gone. If the Rams (or any other NFL team) thought that Sam would help them win, then he’d be on a roster.

Some liberal columnist who knows little about football may stamp his feet in a huff, but the vast majority know exactly what this is about and will move on.

The cheerleaders would be a better fit.

I hope the Redskins sign him. So I can watch the confusion and heads explode on ESPN...

Would she accept the ‘indignity’ of signing onto a practice squad?

PFT is another leftwing site that embraces Political Correctness. Any comments that mention Sammy choosing the homosexual lifestyle are quickly deleted - typical leftwing fascism & intolerance to suppress the truth.

Of course, practice squad indignity at $60,000 / game x 16 games / year = $960,000 / year. He’ll take that kind of shabby treatment to keep his boyfriend & himself well-supplied with vegetable oil & dropcloths.
