Michael Sam Seems to Be Stewing (VIDEO)

December 4, 2014 | Uncategorized | matt-ralston | 0 Comments

In a stunningly boring and dismissive interview, Michael Sam implied he is not on an NFL team because he is gay. When asked by an interviewer from TMZ Sports who doesn’t seem to know anything about sports if coming out had anything to do with his not making it on an NFL team this year, Sam responded:

“I think I was the SEC Defensive Player of the Year last year … so I don’t think it had to do with talent.”

It is true that just about every other SEC Defensive Player of the Year is having a pretty solid NFL career, most of them All-Pro. There is a chance Sam has been excluded because he’s openly gay. I hope for the sake of social progress that teams just hated him on an Equal Opportunity Basis because he’s pretty irritating.

Sam seemed to care more about making a statement off the field than playing football, where he got his ass handed to him by the Rams and then the Cowboys second string. Perhaps it was those long nights giving phone interviews to Kathy Griffin or taping for Oprah instead of studying the playbook and drinking GNC cocktails. I’d like to believe that only talent matters and things like being gay or maybe beating your wife or killing dogs or covering up murders should be considered completely extraneous to your job on the field. Maybe I’m a dreamer.
