Personal foul, spearing, 15 yard penalty, automatic first down.

[Bluebird Singing]

Nothing “gay” about what he does. However, what I meant was he “is” a member of one of Obama’s pet grievance groups that is used to divide America.

[dfwgator]

They’ll never cut him now.

[dfwgator]

They just threw away a roster spot.

[fuzzylogic]

If a republican had said that they’d be ask the question, “what do you mean ‘do not judge on who you are?’”, it implies there’s something wrong with being gay - you’re a BIGOT!

[Bluebird Singing]

This is the stuff President Jarrett keeps obama’s little mind busy with while ‘the powers that be’ engineer the destruction of America.

It’s obvious obama is glued to sports tv in between his teleprompter appearances. Consider the time he devoted to his brackets. Then, consider Sept. 11, 2012.

I didn't know who the guy was crying to be drafted at 9,348, so I watched for bit to see who it was. Then, they say it's crying Sam and he looked at his white guy pal and planted a big one on him. Too late! I can't get it out of my mind! I stayed on to watch the next pick, which was Mr. Irrelevant...last pick of the draft.

Best I can tell, all of the teams stayed away from Sam, but the Rams decided to take the politically correct road...on the next to last pick. Sheesh!

... a member of one of Obama’s pet grievance groups that is used to divide America.

That's an excellent description!

[dfwgator]

Imagine how a player must feel knowing a fag was drafted ahead of them.

[riri]

I definitely feel like there is a quickening of some sort happening.

They crowned some trannie with a beard and mustache the winner of Eurovision this weekend.So surreal to see this man up there in a beard, dressed as a woman collecting his crown and flowers and knowing the ONLY reason he is winning is because our society is SO SICK and depraved.

You can feel the evil growing stronger in the world.

It's growing exponentially worse by the day, it seems.

[Mouton]

"This is the stuff President Jarrett keeps obama’s little mind busy with

" Yeah, I agree because his little mind is incapable of complex planning. His mental process is mono chromatic in a spectrum of colors and hews.

[P-Marlowe]

"You are a Ram.

I'm sure he's had a lot of practice doing that.

[ohioman]

True. Seeing the sickening kissing fags video makes me realize how much I detest what this country has become.

I’ll eventually quit watching the NFL over this crap.

[Farmer Dean]

Sam has a talent that Obama can appreciate and identify with.

[VeniVidiVici]

He was the 249th of 256 players selected.

The seventh round. Forevermore known as the 'affirmative action' round.

Next year someone will draft a gay dwarf of color.

[lado]

You’re right on Sam never being cut. If he gets cut in pre-season, they’ll all throw a hissy fit (discrimination, Jeff Fisher’s a homophobe) etc. Or if he makes the team and doesn’t start, they’ll call that discrimination too.

Face it, the Rams are now STUCK with this guy. Only easy way out for them is if Sam has a career-ending injury.

[driftless2]

I saw the nauseating photo of Sam kissing his boyfriend on the NY. Daily News sports page. I wonder how many heterosexual libs who think forcing homosexual behavior down the collective throat of America is a great idea felt the same as I did? I bet quite a few.

[silverleaf]

I’m gonna guess this guy gets his own shower and locker room

[FreedomGuru]

Sam the Ram.
Don’t Ram me Sam.
Sam Sam he’s our man/woman/it.

[Fair Paul]

Then it’s straight (oh, the irony) to join the useless talking heads at ESPN.
