Cowboys plan to bring Michael Sam to Dallas for a physical Wednesday, per team source. If all goes well, Sam will be a Cowboy.
the topic:
Jerry probably does have an underlying motive, but this kid shows enough to make their 53 before season's end.
He's not that good against the run, but he gets after the QB and the Cowboys are sorely lacking in that area.
I agree. If Sam can use this opportunity (no matter JJ's motive) to stick somewhere, then good for him. And the league has shown that DE/LB rush specialists can survive for a few years (at least).
"Whatever the reason, there was a general feeling on the outside that Sam didn’t fit the Cowboys’ scheme. Coming out of Missouri at 6-2, 260 pounds, he wasn’t strong enough to be an every-down defensive end in a 4-3. Not athletic enough to play outside linebacker. Not fast, either. Runs a 4.91 40."

Would they send a letter and physically document something like that? If Goddells intention is to get Sam signed to a PS why not just have a conversation with ownership? Seems odd.
Rocky has the same tolerance as Great White Homophobe. Â
even his inappropriateness for their scheme may not prevent him from being on the field at some point this season.
It would have been entertaining if the Redskins had signed him. Twitter would have exploded.
Snyder: "I'd rather disgrace the Indian name than sign a homo."
I don't know whether such a move would do a better job of appeasing his critics or offending his defenders, but I'm sure Danny would find a way to monetize it. Start up a Redskins Talk on Bravo or something like that.

What are the job opportunities in his major Parks, Recreation and Tourism?
Couldn't you say that about plenty of other NFL prospects? Or how about those who didn't even finish college before declaring for the draft and are now unable to go back to earn their degrees since they're no longer eligible to play college ball (since many won't be able to afford college without the scholarships)?
he'll have a career as an advocate and a public speaker, he apparently has a book and movie deal coming, etc etc. He does not really stand for the colleges using and abusing athletes to the same extent that a ton of other D1 kids do.
but someone in his office was responsible for planting "Thank You Rodger" signs at the HOF ceremony and thought they could get away with it so who knows Link - ( New Window )
So no, I will not teach my son that 2 men can love each other like a man and a woman.
BB, yeah, 9, good looking (got that from me) lefty, got this sweet swing like Dave Magadan ( got that from my dad), not very fast but smart, picks up the game quick.
lol. So what is it, fake love? People not actual liking eachother?
Anyway, you're a twat. Thank god people with your mindset are a dying breed.
Interesting article about Billy Bean (the other one)... Â
coming back to baseball. As bizarre as the title Ambassador of Inclusion might sound it is cool that Torre and some of the higher-ups are taking steps to welcome gay athletes, past and future (and potentially present) into the fold. Also an assist from the Yogi Berra Museum. Link - ( New Window )
Does this give us the green light to hate his guts without having to worry about being called a homophobe?
I actually think that is exactly what Sam and others would want. To be hated as equally as the rest of the Cowboys. So with that I proudly say Fuck you Michael Sam. You suck!
How many games did Godell promise Jerry he'll order the refs to help him win if Jerry signed Sam. And I say that with no disrespect to Sam but only from the perspective of how bad the NFL wants this guy to be on a team.
And from that perspective it's a win win for Jerry because he does need the help on defense and I'll bet we see Sam play in some games.
is a terrible GM in regards to fielding a winning team but he's a terrific businessman and knows how to keep Dallas in the limelight. Sam is a marginal talent. Smart signing.
He plays much better than his physical ability. As mentioned here he looks like a tweener without the ability to adjust to DL or LB. But he's been through this before, and his likely to succeed as anyone.

Can you say James Harrison?
I agree.
Not going to say that Sam will be a future success in the NFL, but we've seen guys with marginal NFL athletic abilities have great success in the NFL. Remember when people were hating on Burfect for his off the field distractions and his shitty physical attributes (as his performance indicated during the combine)? Yeah, some people are football players more than athletes.

As likely to succeed as a tweener without the ability to adjust to DL or LB? I'd say a better chance than the typical tweener. As likely to succeed as a player with the prototypical size, speed and mental capacity to play those positions? I don't think so.
We'll find out by his play on the PS and on the regular Dallas roster if they have another injury at DE.
Sam certainly is a marginal talent, but this is the Cowboys defense we're talking about, a marginal player might very well get some starting snaps over there.
I call it a good line of defense. It's just not acceptable in my house, I can't control what happens outside of my house with other people.
I don't go out of my to deny anybody anything just don't push what makes me uncomfortable on me.
There you go.
You don't have to "agree" or "condone" homosexuality to explain it to your kids. It's as simple as saying, "Some guys like other guys. I don't think it is right because [insert whatever reason you want] and it makes me uncomfortable. But I wouldn't go out of my way to deny anybody anything."
It isn't all that hard.
I think mine was 6 when I explained homosexuals to him. Don't see what's so uncomfortable about it. I don't agree with your views on it, tho.
You don't suppose they also learn from their friends? Â

Sounds about right. Pathetic.

See, now, if there's something to gripe about THAT is it.
I assume it won't be long before we start accepting races to mix with one another or Jews to be accepted as equals.
Fucking ridiculous. RIP, America.
I don't think the league is that stupid.
They can't be. There's no stigma against the league if he isn't good enough, which, in the long-run, will be correct.
Combine this with ESPN's dumb-ass questions on the locker room showers, and you get idiocy.
why wouldn't it?
It would have been entertaining if the Redskins had signed him. Twitter would have exploded.

If Sam makes a roster and he gets into a fight with his BF, does it fall under the NFL's domestic abuse policy?
why wouldn't it?
Because I thought the whole point was to punish guys for hitting women, not other dudes.

Not a chance a letter was written by the League. Many here may not like Roger Goodell but he is a smart man.
