That’s not much of a deal really. All being on Hard Knocks does is show everybody why your team sucks.

It’s official: the NFL tampers with team rosters to advance a left-wing, anti-Christian agenda.

I’m starting to tire of the NFL.

Nobody crucified Tebow. He’s not on the field for the exact same reason Sam’s not. Neither can play well enough.

This story is a complete fabrication.
Michael Sam could have been the next Reggie White but the homophobic owners shut him out.
Tragic story.

.Leftists are very patient in their incrementalism.And conservatives keep losing because they insist on all or nothing and usually wind up with nothing while the left just keeps chipping away at the foundation upon which thsi country was founded.

The Rams coach denied any truth in the story on Mike & Mike this morning. He claimed the decision to draft Sam was totally his with no NFL interference.

LOL - if you draft a worthless queer player, your team won’t have to do a worthless reality TV show. Do they play football anymore in the NFL?

It was a $cam from the get-go. Now this comes out. The whole delaying the “coming out” before his senior year at Missouri was nothing more than a $cheme to force the NFL to draft and undraftable player. He and his handlers timed his “courage” accordlingly
“Courage Award” $am The $ham has been exposed as the fraud he is. Now the consequences of his homosexuality are coming home to roost.

“But ... but ... but ... the NFL is meritocracy, where the best play, regardless of any other considerations .... right? They would never push a social agenda ... right?”
I have been told the NFL is “meritocracy only” by many, many sports fans that watch a lot of sports on TV - and who are themselves champion recreational beer drinkers.
Still, this report makes me wonder if Tebow, the wholesome quarterback that won at Denver, was passed over by other teams for less qualified players upon guidance from the NFL leadership.
The league was just one unguarded Tebow comment (”I believe marriage is between one man and one woman”) away from being set-upon by Hollywood, the Democrat party, the lame-stream media, Disney and all the demons in Hell.
Plus, wholesome football players are just . . . just wrong.

He’s obviously not NFL material but don’t minimize his collegiate career, especially his senior year. He was very good and SEC Co-Defensive POY.

It’s a “warts and all” look at one team’s training camp. So far no good teams have ever been on it, and it’s usually unintentionally hilarious. And apparently they Rams are going to be on it this year.

Never heard of Hard Knocks...whats it about and why were NFL teams forced to do it?
It's an HBO reality series where a camera crew comes into training camp and pitches a tent up the coaching staff's arse for six weeks. Teams have come to loathe and hate it as it is a major disruption to preparations for the season. But the show is popular and good PR for the league, so the NFL puts great pressure on teams to go along with it.
