He’s black, he can say whatever he wants without consequences.
We honkeys on the other hand had better know our place.

...a white man saying what Dungy said would immediately be on the outside looking in...
I remember when the Bears played the Colts in the Super Bowl.
Some reporter kept asking Dungy: "Isn't it GREAT that two black head coaches are in the Super Bowl?
Dungy said "That's really not important. What's remarkable is that two Christian coaches are in it."
The reporter just wouldn't leave the race angle alone.
Dungy refused to take the bait.
And Dungy is completely correct about Sam.
The very LAST thing an NFL coach needs is a distraction.
He needs men that can work together to win games. Period.
One self-promoting horse's ass player is going to be a huge distraction. And a 7th round pick?
Who needs the drama?
If Sam was a top tier pick who really shined as a player it would be different.
Nobody would really care about his sexuality if Sam was a huge talent.
Plus, I wager a top player would have kept his yap shut until he was "established" as a star.
