Dude, did you even read the conversation? I don't think you did because you're still trying to make the case that I insinuated that Michael Sam did something wrong, I never claimed that or insinuated that. Either keep up with the conversations or get lost, I'm tired of repeating the same things. READ.

Yeah, I read your post at 3:29 responding to his post, you are implying Sam doesn't deserve a chance. Let's hear all of your "valid facts as to why I don't" to quote you again.

I'm not going to repeat myself again, your question has already been answered. READ

What you did in college doesn't mean anything when evaluating whether your game will translate to the next level. What part of this do you not understand? Jackson Jeffcoat was an All American STUD in college and he can't find work in the NFL, and his father played in the NFL and his connections still can't get him on a roster. Explain that one for me.

Hmm, he got signed to the Seahawks...sounds like he got a chance. He is also on the Commanders practice squad...you might want to keep up with things.

Michael Sam was drafted to the Rams and was given a chance but got cut, Jeffcoat was not drafted at all, and you know why I didn't know about Jackson Jeffcoat being signed to the practice squad, because his talent is only practice squad worthy and we shouldn't know about practice squad members. Now why does the entire universe know that Sam has been signed to the Practice Squad? Let me give you a hint, it has nothing to do with football.

College accolades doesn't mean anything when evaluating whether you can play at the NFL level. Sure there are some guys who make it through for a few years who aren't very good, but they would never receive the amount of attention/distraction that Michael Sam has gotten. You're right, the media is to blame for that, but if Sam had 1st round talent, the distraction wouldn't matter because his talent would surpass the distraction. Michael Sam has marginal talent with huge attention/distraction, and it's not worth keeping a guy on the practice squad for that reason.
Dude. You're blowing smoke. That's all I am going to say because anything else will get me an infraction and this thread closed. Have a great weekend.

But what does that matter? He's gay. Whoop ti freaking do. Seems like a good bit of the media hype has already gone away and they are actually talking more about football. If Sam does something worthwhile and earns a spot on the 53, I am sure there will be another round of media hype. It won't affect the team.

That's my point, no other practice squad player has ever been talked about like this, and it has nothing to do with football, not to mention that the league pretty much forced Sam on to a practice squad roster and cut a guy who earned his spot, but his dreams don't matter right?

Funny, but Jerry says he never heard from the league office.

LOL. I have several years of experience doing that on this board. It's not worth the trouble. I enjoy this place too much. ;)

Okay then, keep quiet unless you're going to say what you feel.

The media has already stated that the league office pushed Sam onto a practice squad, but if Jerry said otherwise, it must be Gospel.

I said what I feel. Report it. You've blown a tremendous amount of smoke into this thread. My lungs are struggling to keep up.
