The news comes amid reports that the NFL and the St. Louis Rams were unaware of Sam’s docuseries plans and just two days after the Discovery-owned cable network officially greenlighted the reality show.
...
“After careful consideration and discussion with the St. Louis Rams, the untitled Michael Sam project has been postponed, allowing Michael the best opportunity to achieve his dream of making the team,” said Erik Logan, president of OWN. “OWN is about elevating and empowering people to achieve their best. It’s clear that we, along with the world, recognize the important opportunity that Michael now has in this moment. We will continue to support him in his journey to earn a spot playing for the Rams.”

Dick’d that one up, eh?
Wrecked ‘em.
What’s on his neck then?
Why not, the seventh round draft pick gets phone calls from the president now. Maybe he can become a "body man" when his calendar opens up in the next several weeks.
Is the warranty still good on Biden’s hair plugs?
My problem with OWN is that the nestled it in among a block of channels (on my system) that I check out. They should have moved it up a bit to be with Al Jareeza and Pivot, where it would attract less negative attention.
Bttt
I’m just glad race-pimp liar Oprah is crumbling to irrelevant dust. She called for an anti-white genocide. Now she’s a Whoopie Goldberg except without the Harlem hobo look.
He blew it too....
He really overdid it. First the embarrassment on ESPN, which you can’t tell me didn’t hurt the Rams’ various sales, then the corporate contracts, then the line of his gear, all for a seventh rounder who may not even make the team.
I remember one afternoon in the early 2000’s, the Atlanta Braves had gay day at the park. They hyped it like crazy, and thought it would be roundly accepted. They got torched. The announcers stopped talking about it a week beforehand, and when it came, the cameras were very careful. I don’t think they did it again.
That inbred hillbilly idiot loves nothing better than a circus.
Drat. Was so looking forward to watching the episode where Michael’s interior designer pals decorate his locker.
Apparently also selling his own merchandise online
Whatta freak show. I hope St. Louie fans weren’t expecting too much this season.
When the players shower, no one soaps their eyes ‘cause they want to keep an eye on Sams, right?
It must be like a Lifetime movie in the Rams’ locker room. Oxygen or whatever that fag channel is called.
Whoa! Lennie dropped his soap, and everyone froze. “OK, I’m picking up my soap now.” (Lennie crouches, looks anxiously around. A shot rings out!)
Man down!
He better not be doing that on the White House Oval Desk grrrrr
The Rams should have cut $am for failing to disclose the Oprah deal as he basically lied by omission.
Either way, he’ll be cut as he doesn’t have the talent to make the Rams DL which is the best in the NFL and is deep.
And it’s unlikely they will carry 9 DE’s but if they do, the 9th will be Ethan Westbrooks who can play both DT and DE, unlike $am.
Cut from the roster. I doubt that he makes the team.
Looks like the Faggot Express has been derailed.
That explains a lot
This is great news. Now they can hire David and Jason Benham to do their show......
