In a way I can't blame Michael Sam. He figures he may be cut in training...or he just may not be able to cut it if he ends up playing in big league football. Many college players can't.

So why not mine the big bucks from Oprah while the mining is good? It's an insurance policy. Plus he may make as much or more money over the long run in the TV entertainment field and lucrative speaking engagements than he could in a couple of years of getting bashed and battered in pro ball.

The enticing lure of fast TV bucks lured Sarah Palin. I hope it's only for a while but I doubt it. Once bitten, forever hooked. Why should she get bashed and battered in the political ball fields when she can make big bucks on TV in relative psychological safety while still being an important political leader?

These people have to make big decisions....and I don't purport to say or know whether they're making the right ones or not. Only they know what's best for them.

All I know is that it would be nice to have their choices, LOL.

Don't compare this charlatan to Palin. Sam flat out lied when he said he simply wanted to play football. Him and his team suckered the NFL they were already filming a TV show and his agents were hired by Oprah and they hid all this from the NFL.

Sure he can make money and exploit whoever he wants, but you really can't judge someone who lies and uses people?

This guy isn’t playing a down on a real NFL game and he knows it. He didn’t even try to be in shape at the NFL combine he stunk it up.
