Michael Sam, the SEC’s Defensive Player of the Year and Missouri’s All-American defensive lineman, told ESPN’s Outside the Lines and The New York Times on Sunday that he is gay.

Sam is projected to be a mid-round pick in the 2014 NFL Draft after leading the SEC with 11.5 sacks and 19 tackles for a loss, but he’ll be happy playing for whatever team wants him.

Have the Obama's invited him to the NEXT SOTU yet?

[C. Edmund Wright]

OMG…the dude’s a beast….had a better season than Jadaveon this year.

[gorush]

This could be a marketing opportunity for the 49’s.

[informavoracious]

Ho hum

[woweeitsme]

I’ll be more surprised when athletes come out as heterosexual. I’m sick of these “coming out” parties. I don’t care about what you do off of the field.

[massmike]

...or the **ahem** “Packers”!

[gorush]

Them’s fight’n words...you name the time and the place! :{)

[Army Air Corps]

Another Three Percenter seeks some additional attention. Whoop-dee-doo.

[montag813]

Whew! Good thing he didn’t come out as something REALLY controversial, like a CHRISTIAN!

[AlexW]

Is gayness a new epidemic, or is it that they are just coming out of the closet?

[TigersEye]

Is that his way of saying he can provide some favors to whoever picks him?

Front page story on ESPN.com.

He gets "Two Snaps and your backfield in motion."

Sam is projected to be a mid-round pick in the 2014 NFL Draft after leading the SEC with 11.5 sacks and 19 tackles for a loss, but he’ll be happy playing for whatever team wants him.

So I'm guessing that means he swings both ways?

BFD

The attention whore can now STFU

[liberalh8ter]

Reggie's got competition.....

[Sarah Barracuda]

Im more shocked when a male figure skater comes out as heterosexual

[SevenofNine]

OH MAN that what I thinking Men on Films doing NFL Football games on in Living Color skit

[basalt]

well..here it comes..the “canary in a coal mine” for the leftists. Their “test” case to attack and conquer the last bastion of ‘maleness” in this country..professional sports, with the N.F.L. being the ultimate prize. They already conquered the United States military. The media will just go wild with this. Thank God I’m not in my twenties...this nations soul is lost...ugh.

Okay. So the dude is Gay. I suppose this means that he’s supposed to the the Number One Overall pick in the draft and he deserves to be given a contract that is equal to the highest paid player in the NFL, while being named as the 2014 NFL Player of the Year and League MVP?

Opps!

Roger Goodell just may insist upon this!
