Where exactly would Sam have to have been drafted for the NFL and society in general to prove to you that his draft position wasn't influenced by his sexuality? #69, #11, #1? Who gets to decide? You?
Like you I would love to live in a society where his sexuality didn't mean anything. That way he could be picked in the seventh round commensurate with his abilities without idiots screaming oppression. Instead of celebrating a significant moment in societal change, an openly gay man gets drafted into the NFL, you and your ilk run around screaming "that's not good enough".
Let's do this...
Let's find out who in the NFL likes to suck a dick. All those dudes should be immediately enshrined in the Hall of Fame. Would that satisfy you?
Who the fuck is claiming that?
Holly fucking shit. The same stupid arguments were used when blacks first broke into pro sports. The same stupid arguments were used to justify banning interracial marriage.
Do you flip out when you see heterosexuals kissing in public? Should we ask every player if they like eating pussy as a litmus test to get into the Hall Of Fame? No? So don't set up a double standard yourself.
He wasn't open to make a circus or novelty about his sexuality. He is open because he wants the same rights as anyone else. Only a fool would think he has the same rights at this point in history.
