Jeff Fisher will handle the distraction quite well, I think. I wish the young man the best.

That's why Tampa Bay passed on him, the fans would never stand for going back to the old Gay Blade pink uniforms....

Just think what the Rams can do this year for the NFL's annual hot pink accessory month.....

 :smokin:

Name change and team colors? Michael Sam will be asking if those pants make his ass look fat....

As a die-hard PACKER BACKER, I can honestly say I really like what Ted Thompson did with the selections this year.

I was disappointed to see Chris Borland go to the Niners, but the idea that we got Jared Abbrederis made up for that! He's going to have to add some muscle, but he's got the hands for sure!

It's going to be interesting to see how we do with the UDFAs.

GO!! PACK!! GO!!

It's a shame Green Bay passed on him too.....they were already known as the "Fudge Packers".......

Most common pickup line in Green Bay?: "Excuse me, may I push in your stool?"....

How long before the Rams are told that they have to change their name and team colors?

I wonder if the NFL pressured a team to draft him so they can avoid the heat.. Having said that, doesn't mean he will make the team.. Usually a person who drafted in the later rounds don't make the team..

I don't care how many times the media saturates the airwaves with shots of gays kissing, I am never going to feel all warm and fuzzy inside and happy for their joy in the way I would with an opposite sex couple.  But I must admit the yuck factor is going away, so maybe some of the MSM objectives are being achieved.

After what happened with Sterling and his team, I suspect that the Ramettes will be compelled to keep Sam on the roster even if he sucks (which is a safe bet).

Quite agree. If they dare cut him now, no matter how light (in the loafers), slow or untalented he may be, they'll be homophobes.

Sorry, Bigun.  ^-^

Before anyone asks, that's cake on their faces. They forgot this was the NFL draft and not the ceremonial cutting and smashing-into-face of the wedding cake.  :thud:

Not only is it a gay couple, but an interracial one, too. We're two-for-two so far on the push-people's-buttons chart.

It still abhors me, as well it should. But alas, perhaps my sense of what is supposed to be normal is so much stronger than everyone else's around me. We have a generation that has seen so much anti-normative pressure that they don't understand the concept anymore.

I mean, there are certain things in life where it's certainly OK to be "abnormal." Fashion, for instance. Yet, there also is a place where the desire to find a decent member of the opposite sex, settle down and have a family should be encouraged and accommodated. Instead, we now have "boyfriend-free" women, dogs acting as substitutes for children, and rapidly declining birth rates. (Not to mention wholescale acceptance of homosexuality.) It breaks my heart, both on a personal (I'm just getting over my attempts to win such a "boyfriend-free" woman over) and greater level. They just don't understand.

I am beginning to getter a better understanding of the story of Sodom and Gomorrah.   

Accepting gay marriage in society is hard enough to do....two men tonsil jousting with their tongues is disgusting.

I don't care for them rubbing it in my face with this public display of celebration.   Damn!

I quite agree.  He had photographers present?  It is certainly his right to do so, but I'd think a more sensible approach would be, "I'm focusing on football and my opportunity with the St. Louis Rams."

To be fair to Sam, most draftees probably would want to have someone present recording the event for posterity, and that may include a photographer.

That being said, I certainly agree; Sam's behavior screams of that of an attention-seeker. Compare Sam's situation to that of Abby Wambach. Wambach is one of women's soccer's biggest stars. She also happens to be a lesbian. She doesn't make a big deal of it and doesn't think people should make a big deal of it.
