Oprah acquires rights to Sam series
ESPN ^ | May 14, 2014 | Darren Rovell

Posted on 05/14/2014 6:05:16 PM PDT by ConservativeStatement

The Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) announced on Wednesday that it had purchased the rights to a documentary series that will follow the life of Michael Sam. Terms were undisclosed, but sources said that negotiations to make the deal took two months.

Sam became the first openly gay man to be taken in the NFL draft when he was picked Saturday in the seventh round by the St. Louis Rams.

Cameras for the network were with Sam when he received the call that he was drafted and will follow him through training camp as he tries to make the team.

The network said the working title for the series is "The Untitled Michael Sam Project."

“The Untitled Michael Sam Project.”


Make it an action series and call it Rambutt.

PS I had never really thought the struggle of black people for equality to be equivalent to the desire of homosexuals to flaunt their lifestyles.
But if Dohprah says so, it must be so.

Gee, just think a year ago “Capt Courageous” outted himself to his team but didn’t want them to tell

Now we know why . . . $$$

Again, will the NCAA look into the relationship between Sam and his “handlers”?

I'd say that's a given. Jason Collins got to sit with the First Uruk Hai at the SOTU.

I hate to think of the things carved into Lincolns Bed by the guests in the past 5 years.

And I assume anyone who doesn’t support homosexuality will be called a racist by Oafrah justlike what she said about people who didn’t support her homosexual Marxist God Obama?

A whole series about a guy who stands on the sideline?

He will be watching from the men's room. He is not an NFL talent. He did only 17 presses at 225. A 4.91 40. A 25" vertical. High school players do better.

You have to admit, he (or his advisors) is brilliant.
The guy is famous, has a lucrative endorsement deal with Visa Card, and is likely good for several years at NFL “minimum wage” $420,000 for a 7th rounder.

Without the gay thing he’d be selling insurance or used cars likely making about 25 grand a year.

Yep! Every time he gets brushed back or hit the pitcher will be under suspicion of being homophobic.

When Doprah saw Sam getting humped by the draft, she paid the pimp Rams to draft him to keep her deal from being instantly blown.

HAHAHAHAHA This whole Al Queerda SAM story is so manufactured. This proves it. First he announces he’s gay to get the guaranteed gay pick. Then, he cries about not getting picked in the first round. NOW Oprah is making a documentary about him!!! Biggest phony fake collection of bovine excrement since global warming and Obama.
