While most of the MU student body and many media members around here(mid-MO) knew he was gay almost 2 years ago it wasn't public until after the season was over and he was named All-American.
I'm shocked people even knew who he was

And this is the same organization that refused to bring Tebow in because they felt the media circus would be a distraction. This borders on the insane and definitely is hypocritical at best.

Again... Tebow wasn't brought in because he's a shitty QB. Lol

Hey, man... never did get confirmation on that whole "4th best pass rusher" thing. Any word on that?

Not to mention as soon as Sam would've threw an incomplete pass everybody would've been screaming for Tebow all the time. Quarterback controversy for sure and that's how coaches get fired.

That's why Johnny football didn't get picked at 2,13 IMO. It would've been quarterback controversy and media nightmare constantly. The difference this time is Johnny's going to play in Cleveland if he succeeds it's going make fisher look bad. They are all in on Bradford.

Well many of the folks now stating that it should be about SAM's football skills are discovery all of this hype has little to do with that and that it is afterall about his gayness. So I say, quit your whining and sit through since many condone this nonsense.

"I just want to be known as a football player but I'm gonna come out of the closet pre-draft and do a documentary about being a 7th round, gay football player, on Oprah channels. Because it has to be only about football." - Michael Sam

Just heard on mike & mike that the Rams are giving No media access to the Documentary for the Oprah show. He will have to do it on his time

Good for them. While I am very much in favor of Sam getting a fair shake at making the team, I think the media circus should be minimized.

Again Caynine. Tebow wasn't brought in for any reason. This guy was. There is a difference.

And that's was a good thing. Fans grouse about Bradford's 59% completion percentage, so why would we want Tim Tebow's 47%? The guy was flat-out awful. It's well documented. He might have been the worst starting QB in NFL history.

Personally, I really like the guy, but there's a reason he's no longer in the league... and we'd want him in St. Louis, why?

Of course they're not. Hell... NFL Network barely gets access to Jeff Fisher's training camps. Lol. What... did people think? ...that Oprah would be interviewing Sam on the 30 yard line during 7-on-7 drills?

They didn't even bring him for a tryout Caynine. He was cut-off at the door. Who said anything about bringing him to sign him without a work-out? Is that not what they are giving SAM? He gets the usual camp contract to go through camp and a tryout. That is all I stated back then and now.

Spot on RoboticDreams. The double standard and hypocrisy going on here is palatable and the double ideology BS is so bad that this fool can't even delineate the real issue about his own life. This is typical of the LGBT and the left community. Just alot of confusion and BS to avoid and deflect while the problem grows and its consequences magnified.

There was no point in bringing him in for a tryout. We (and obviously every other NFL front office) already know he's a lousy QB.

I mean... we didn't bring in Jamarcus Russell in for a tryout either.

Kony Ealy, Markus Golden, Shane Ray, Michael Sam.

Yeah, I'm familiar with them (well, I wasn't with Shane Ray). But the numbers don't bear out your theory. Was just curious how you came to your conclusion, considering Sam's 11.5 sacks and 19 tackles for loss led not only Mizzou, but the SEC as a whole.

Michael Sam: 11.5 sacks/19 TFL
Kony Ealy: 9.5 sacks/14.5 TFL.
Markus Golden: 6.5 sacks/13 TFL.
Shane Ray: 4.5 sacks/9 TFL

Shane Ray: 4.5 sacks/9 TFL

Kony was getting double teamed.
Markus was playing out of position at LB to get his speed on the field.
Shane was a SO and playing limited time under more experienced seniors, he also isn't polished in run stopping which cut his time.

Sam had 9 sacks in 3 games and 2.5 in the other 11. He went off against an inferior opponent (Arkansas St) and 2 weaker SEC offenses who were playing from behind and doubling Kony. Just watching them play every week he didn't impress me as a pass rusher over the other guys.
