He was drafted late, seventh round. Homophobia was suggested. Now that he has been cut, homophobia has been blamed,

I’m pretty sure he was cut because he sucked.
He was a marginal four-star player on a three-star NCAA team, with a two-star schedule. He looked better than he really was. So, now is the big time, and his skills are limited but have potential. The trouble is...do you want to sign him and spend three years developing him....as he drags you around in some media-frenzy atmosphere? He’ll hook up and spend two or three seasons in the NFL, then get cut and end up in Canada for three seasons before he’s ‘retired’. It’ll be curious to see how he looks back on all of this in a decade.
It is generally bad for the gamewhen a player runs around trying to get tackled.
Even worse when a defense player lays down at the first sign of physical contact.
Conversely, that movie script you sweated over for years has just been rejected. They say its because its not good enough, but is it because you recently penned that article deploring the corrosive effects of feminism? Its difficult to tell - its almost impossible to prove. But a lot of authors use pseudonyms. :)
Yeah, because the Cowboys, the team of Texas, the most important conservative State still standing, took him. Because of homophobia.
What idiocy.
That doesn't exactly anwser the question.
yes--but was it because of WHAT or WHOM he sucks? ;)
When ESPN spends so much time about when and with him he showers,
they demonstrate their own homophobia .
and they hAve not been called out on it !!
I think it’s kind of unfair and unobjective to say he sucked. He hustled and he lead at least one of the games in tackles, so it wasn’t like he was being blown away. But he was playing mostly against second and third stringers. At the end of the day, he’s just too small to be a defensive lineman and too slow to be a linebacker. So, hustle aside, he’s just not worth it for a team to take. But, gay or not, he has some ability to read defenses and follow the ball.
I’d say it’s more likely that he was cut for homo-mania.
Isnt there a locker room problem?...What do they do put up a sheet?...Or does he change w the cheerleaders?
I dont know much about foot ball used to play it...but dont watch it.
What does the T.S.A. do about homosexual ones?.....Do they search the girls then?..Why hasnt this been in the news?
What are they doing about it?
Does anyone know?
How about he was selected because he was a homo !
If he could of busted thru an sacked the Q B he would still be on the team.
He’s not a NFL player because he isn’t qualified to be one.
Very few people are, and even then, they are not for long.
The real question is why was he drafted!
I wholeheartedly concur with your assessment. Plus, he had a horrible combine. If it wasn’t for his homosexuality, he wouldn’t have been drafted at all. Meanwhile, Roger Goddell allows Ray Rice to knock his now-wife unconscious and drag her in an elevator and only get a two-game suspension. The NFL is quickly becoming dead to me./rwa
Jerry Jones snuck a convicted DUI manslaughter on his roster while everyone cheered Sams.
Then Jerry said Sam's is to weak to play in the NFL.
Exactly - so much for the “he’s just like every other player” argument.
What other player got the NFL to phone every single team, begging them to take him onto their roster?? None.
Special treatment for one player, nothing less. That’s not equality, that’s favoritism.
Jerry might be taking one for the team, so to speak.
Tim Tebow was cut due to Christianphobia.
