Cowboys plan to bring Michael Sam to Dallas for a physical Wednesday, per team source. If all goes well, Sam will be a Cowboy.
This is one of the first teams I thought of when Sam was waived. Â
Michael Sam is exactly the kind of player the Cowboys should be checking out: Very productive defensive lineman in college, cut by an NFL team stacked at his position -- a position where the Cowboys are thin.
Maybe he can play, maybe he can't, but if you're Dallas you have to find out. If he's lousy, you let him go and bring in someone else.
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Michael Sam is on the verge of having a new home.
According to multiple reports, the rookie defensive end will head to Dallas on Tuesday night to take a physical with the Cowboys on Wednesday.
If he passes the physical, he will reportedly join Dallas’ practice squad.
He wants to be treated equally but yet all this BS on this site only because he is "light in the loafers" and nothing about his football ability. It's good for any player who gets cut an the signed. I'm happy for all kids to keep their dream alive. The madness needs to stop!!!!!

So I'll go with the publicity angle...
Why cut someone to make room for Sam when you can get a "free" evaluation of him in your system and a day-to-day comparison between him and the other DEs on the roster?
I'm sure the cowboys will bring Sam in for a real deep "physical". I'm sure Jerruh can personally show him to all his favorite "glory holes". Just remember, god's watching you from that great hole in the.... ok I will just end this now :-)
how many of you guys would be talking about what a class organization we are?
I hate the Cowboys and yea the media aspect of this story can't be ignored. But I won't be cynical about this, pretty cool move by the Cowboys. Their D sucks so might as well give a pass rusher who played well in pre-season a chance.
Similar kind of story: Productive college player who didn't appear to have the tools for success in the NFL. Sam might give them some quality snaps too. Seems like a logical pickup for a team hurting at DE. Plus, he's from Texas and has family in the Dallas area.
In his personal life. Some of my best friends are gay. Let's see, there's, uh..., er....um....no...maybe
I could have gay friends!
I like Elton John
I seriously wouldn't care but when I had to explain to my 9 year old son why a man was kissing another man on national tv during the NFL draft, it was uncomfortable and disturbing. I have enough trouble keeping up with MTV and the Disney Channel, I don't need to see that shit...
Nothing wrong with what you feel as it's your opinion and with an opinion there's no "right" or "wrong." Careful not to escalate you volatile bastid. I don't want to lose you again. It's been way too long..
Yeah, not being a shitty parent and actually taking the time Â

Of course there are wrong opinions, that's just silly.
Rocky's post about having difficulty talking to his kid reminded me of this Louis CK quote:
"It doesn’t have ANY effect on your life. What do you care? People try to talk about it like it’s a social issue. Like when you see someone stand up on a talk show and say ‘How am I supposed to explain to my child that two men are getting married?’ I dunno, it’s your shitty kid, you fuckin’ tell ‘em. Why is that anyone else’s problem? Two guys are in LOVE but they can’t get married because YOU don’t want to talk to your ugly child for five fuckin’ minutes?"
a decent parent would do the hard work and explain to their kid that even if it's not something we personally agree with, two men have the right to express their love for one another the same as two women do or a man and a woman do.
You can use that a gauge and see where you land and determine for yourself if that makes you a shitty parent or not.
Wasn't really that hard. In my case, it was Jason Collins in the NBA. Wasn't a conversation I was planning to have with him at that age, but since there's no need to get into any kind of detail really wasn't that difficult a subject to cover.
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.
being an intolerant and negative influence on kids. Sprinkle in some homophobic rants and you've got the trifecta of being a shitty person. Congratulations.

Hey...but he was long missed on BBI, so you have to give him that.

You people are preaching tolerance yet you refuse to tolerate a different opinion. That about right?
Hmmm...I don't think that's how it works, man. That's about as backassward of equating two things as you can get. But we've heard the same argument from other homophobic posters on BBI...so I guess it's just par for the course.
It seems very few players go from practice squad to that team's 53. More often they get grabbed by another team. So if Jerry really felt he could help, and that this wasn't for publicity, he would be better served by making room for him.
I'm not the one making personal attacks, there's about 6 or. 7 of them that go before I do.
Brett being first...
I will have to agree that the homo-loving commies here are pretty caustic here. I think they need to all be banned as well, especially Brett. Fuck you, you pinko-commie bastard! This is 'Merica, bitch.
I'm sure because you don't allow it in your house, your son will be in the"safe" 29. Good parenting and disallowing things you are uncomfortable with guarantees it will all turn out the way you planned it
Homer: Marge, the boy was wearing a Hawaiian shirt.
Marge: So?
Homer: There’s only two kind of guys who wear those shirts: gay guys and big, fat party animals. And Bart doesn’t look like a big, fat party animal to me.
Marge: So, if you wore a Hawaiian shirt, it wouldn’t be gay?
Homer: Right! Thank you.

Stats on this? I would've thought when a player went on IR, teams looked first to their PS for a replacement. Granted with only 8-9 players in past years, there was a good chance that no replacement existed.
In Dallas' case, they could easily bump a DE from their PS to their 53 man roster just because of the lack of depth there.

Don't tell me not to watch football, keep the gay shit off family TV.
I didn't say not to watch football. I just said that if you don't want to see those things don't watch those shows that air those things. Whether you watch or not is entirely within your control.
It's a funny thing about TV, radio, movies, etc. The consumer gets to pick and choose of his or her own volition whether or not they watch or listen to a particular program. No one is ever forced to watch or listen to anything they don't want to.
There's these buttons on remote controls. One of them is used to just turn things off completely. The others are used to switch from one program to another. Anytime there's anything on TV I don't want to see, I use them, and like magic, I'm not watching something I don't want to see.
I've got news for you - sports stopped being family TV Â
Forget the gay stuff - how about wife beating? Drunk driving? Dog killing?
Try explaining to your son why an NFL QB had to have an alias because he was floating around giving women herpes. Or how he had to do time in the federal pen because he was electrocuting dogs for kicks.
The gay cake eating is the last thing anyone could point to for 'family time' as far as sports are concerned.
- the colonel - From American Beauty. Staunch homophobe on the outside, closet gay man on the inside. Don't be afraid of your true feelings! And try not to kill anyone in the process.
Daddy, why do I have to throw away my Rae Carruth jersey? Â
I'm pretty sure even you aren't that stupid. Although you are the guy who claims to hate the Yankees because you knew someone who died driving home after a Yankee game?
What does that even mean???? You realize that, regardless of what laws you pass or what you teach kids or whatever, homosexuality will still exist, as it has since the dawn of mankind?
Which is fine, because it will speed you back down the ban superhighway where you belong.....but, as always, this little episode highlights what a piece of garbage you are and have always been, so we're all better off for it.
This is a middle aged man here, spouting off like the worst of the dregs of the YouTube comments section.
My daughter likes to remind me fairly often that given the large volume of stupidity on the internet, it can't all be from misguided teenagers. Exhibit A right here.
I know you're just trolling at this point
Greg from LI : 9:07 am : link : reply

Don't clue him in.
I mean, I doubt any of us are trolling him in return to hasten this.
For their opinion, unlike most of the rest of you on this thread.
And if I'm the only father that wants to protect my son from what I don't consider wholesome, then I guess I the only sane person left.
Not sure what isn't wholesome about those who are homosexuals. It's all about their character and not about who they are attracted to.
I have plenty of incredible homosexual friends, who are far more wholesome than some of the heterosexual people I've met in life. And several of them served our nation proudly. So what's so unwholesome about them or their way of life?
And I don't think you know the definition of "sane" if this is the reason why you think you're sane.
You've stated your position on this matter. It's a position that the world (the civilized world at least) is rejecting very rapidly. Did you ever consider the possibility that you might be setting your son up for being ostracized by association with your views?
Would you feel comfortable letting your kid hang out with a kid whose dad, for example, doesn't want "darkies" coming by?
Do you want his peers to think of him as the kid with the weird homophobic/racist dad? This is the bigger risk than your kid being gay - if you really consider that to be a "risk".
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." Article - ( New Window )
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.

Can you say James Harrison?
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
I agree 100%
No doubt.
Good news for Sam though...

Maybe he can play, maybe he can't, but if you're Dallas you have to find out. If he's lousy, you let him go and bring in someone else.
According to multiple reports, the rookie defensive end will head to Dallas on Tuesday night to take a physical with the Cowboys on Wednesday.
If he passes the physical, he will reportedly join Dallas’ practice squad.
So I'll go with the publicity angle...
Why would they sign him to the 53 till they found out if he's better than what they have?
That wouldn't make sense.
JJ will play it for all it's worth.
If he was such a good player why isn't he on a open day roster or put on the Rams practice team?
Quote:
But Jerry's motivation likely isn't football related, which is sad for this kid. He's just looking to keep media attention on his team.
I agree 100%
Yup...Doing it for publicity. At least Sam may benefit from it
Yep. That's the point I was driving at.

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.

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.

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

Does this give us the green light to hate his guts without having to worry about being called a homophobe?
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.

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!
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.
Can you say James Harrison?
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.
Can you say James Harrison?
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.
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.
I'm certaon all my kids knew what gays and lesbians were by kindergarden.

All boys hate girls at 5 yrs old.
That mean we're all homosexual deep down inside?
