Michael Sam believes he's not on a NFL roster because of the fact he's openly gay -- telling TMZ Sports he strongly believes he's got the talent to play in the league.
Sam was at LAX this morning when he was asked if he thinks NFL teams are shying away from him because of his sexual orientation ... or if it has to do with the level of talent he faced after college.
"I think I was the SEC Defensive Player of the Year last year ... so I don't think it had to do with talent."

He finally went there including claiming, repeating the argument from the Pro-Homos, because he was SEC player of the year means he should be in the NFL. How many Heisman Winners had limited careers in the NFL? Jason White and Eric Couch were winners and never played a snap in a NFL regular game.

He doesn’t ‘just believe.’ He ‘strongly believes.’

So, if he had kept his big mouth shut and didn’t flaunt his sexual disorientation, he could be making some big bucks right now. Mikey needs to learn that most Americans don’t appreciate the homosexuals’ “In Your Face, America!” bull****. They sure as hell aren’t going to pay you for doing it.

You play like a sissy.
Has nothing to do with you being gay.
You Ellen’d yourself and made your chosen sexual identity the primacy of your qualifications and schtick.
STFU and play harder.
Chump...

Thats True Mike. Because most all the people that tell you how much they ‘support’ you actually are disgusted by you. And it’s time you realized it and went back in the closet.

Perhaps a career in interior decorating would be more suitable..?

He isn’t in the NFL because he is a crappy player and a drama queen. Literally!

But TMZ is only bothering to talk to him because he is gay - so it works both ways.

And he announced it to the world, then complains over perceived shunning.
Should have kept his mouth shut, both ways.

So why did he come out in the first place? Nobody seemed to care about his sexuality until he didn’t just shut up about it.

Amazing coincidence. He’s not in the NFL for the same reason that Obama is not in the NBA?
To: C19fan
Michael Sam . . . you are not in the NFL because you are not good enough to even be on the Taxi Squad.

Maybe his former teammates can come up with some kind of disgusting display to show their support.
