NEW YORK -- It took nearly the entire draft, but Michael Sam and the NFL finally made history.

The St. Louis Rams used the 249th pick in the seventh round to select Sam, who has officially become the league's first openly gay player.

Being picked by St. Louis means Sam will stay in the state where he played college football as a standout at the University of Missouri.

the Rams just became the “gay team” with all homosexuals now adopting the rams logo as a “gay logo”

NO WAY would any normal person want to be seen at a rams appearing game.

now we go after the sponsors.

The NFL just committed suicide.

What’s going to happen when Sam gets cut and doesn’t make the team?

The Gay Mafia and their fellow travelers in the MSM will throw a hissy fit and sue the Rams for discrimination.

They will catch hell when they have to cut him, or they will catch more hell when they keep a player who isn’t fit for any position in the teams framework

A total repulsive freak show.

How long will it be before we see the first bigamist NFL draftee or the first open pedophile? Will ESPN be glorifying those sexual behaviors as well?

I haven’t watched TV since 2001. Have not missed it. But it IS funny to watch people bitch about ESPN libs promoting gay on right wing sites while they send them cash to do it.

Ironic.

It sure will be interesting when half the team refuses to play and only 500 people show up to Rams games and almost no one watches the Rams play on TV.

Sam really wanted to go to the Rams. They have tight ends and they suck.

Rams, already unpopular in St. Louis.

Now, even more so.
