They are just catching up it appears. You do recall the bellowing when Sams declared he was gay?? IMO let the kid play ball but none of em will. His fault. He could have shut his yap but instead brought on the attention and now he's getting it and folks who cheered at the time now don't like it. Funny if you think about it.

So what does he do? Announce he is gay RIGHT before the draft.

If he had a sure fire chance to be the #1 overall pick? No chance he comes out of the closet.

It was never about football for Sam. It was about GAY.

And now, clearly, about money.
He was a projected third round pick at the time he came out, and eventually fell four rounds. Now he says wish he would have waited until after the draft to come out, so this was never a ploy.

So you want to join in on the madness? Let the kid play ball. Apparently he is more interested in getting attention though. His world. Nobody will know who he was in three months is what he's doing to himself.

Nah, I have no strong desire to try to make people think like I do. I just know that people think differently and they have the right to do so. Honestly, I'm not pro or anti anything for anyone other than me.

Nor am I. Apparently this kid is. He is showing his true colors. I was rooting for him. He's playing the clown now. Lost my support.
