I just can't wait for the preseason when we see the first flag for a hate crime when an offensive lineman blocks him to the ground.

And where are his teammates supposed to congratulate him after a good play? I mean, they can't just pat him on the ass can they?

They can, they just have to buy him dinner first.

Where are all the Sam supporters now? He can't even cut it in the CFL. A lot of you fuckers thought he should've been a first round pick.

POTY, without reservation.
Bumped after a year. I've missed you so god much. I...I love you Kareem. You can Kareem my wheat any day. Did you see what I did there? I
am very clever.

Actually Montreal let him go to deal with a personal matter, only suspending him to be able to have an active body on the roster and not lose
Sam's rights.
So at this point...no idea if he can or can not cut it in the CFL, or what he is dealing with.
And since your post was so full of love, have a kiss:

Guess you missed today's story saying that his chances of returning to the team are non-existent. Just the fact he had to make a run at the CFL
in the first place shows that it was his lack of talent that doomed his NFL "career" and not the fact he's a twink.

The term you are looking for is power top. The boyfriend is the twink, though I'm assuming also a power bottom to realistically enjoy
what Sam has to offer. You are making an effort to learnding gay terminology, so that's a start. Kudos.
Would you like to share some "cake"?

So over @ http://www.tsn.ca/radio/winnipeg-1290/zurkowsky-don-t-expect-sam-back-in-montreal-1.309005 you can hear an interview with a Montreal Gazette
columnist that mentions that Sam may have had issues with some team mates. They also mention Chad Johnson and point out that Sam would have been on
the roster.
Basically, everything points to Sam getting an over extended chance to learn the Canadian game (and yes, there is a learning curve) and SOMETHING
happened that made the fit not work. Maybe Sam didn't want to deal with the struggle...maybe Montreal's staff didn't think he was
good enough to take up a roster space.
Either way, we don't know.
And...even if we did...why the hate bro?

I guarantee Sam would be the one bending you over the bed Kareem. Doesn't seem much twinkish about him.
Go Cubs!
And just imagine if, instead of the Palins, the Obama family had a pregnant, underage daughter on display at
their convention, flanked by her black boyfriend who "intends" to marry her. Who among conservatives would have resisted the temptation to speak of
"the dysfunction in the black community"?

He couldn't even make it in the CFL. So sad. Maybe Arena Football wants the circus to come to their town next. Turns out being a one-trick pony
in college might have its limitations in the pros.
And again, I could give 2 shits about his sexuality. It's the fact the media made a hero out of him, dropped what little objectivity they had
left and openly rooted for him when they knew he wasn't good enough to make it in the pros.

I'd say check out this
great article about Sam,
but it's a) written by a women b) at ESPN W and c) you lack basic comprehension skills.
Sam did play a game in the CFL, and by all accounts the Alouettes were not looking to part with him.
And really, if you still don't get why the media made a big deal out of Sam, or why David Denson is making news despite having less odds than
Sam...there's really nothing more to say.

Dammit, baby can't you wait until I get home to get my engine revvin'? You know how turned on I get when you start talkin' dirty
about the dirty! I know you could give 2 shits less, but that means you can at least save one for me.
You like those glistening brown floppers as much as anyone I'm aware of on the bOOards and it would be a shame for someone so clearly obsessed
with coprophilia and throbbing, undulating, massive black hammers to waste the pooparade without sharing with me.
BOOardies are right around the corner my darling Kareem. I want to do the verbal equivalent of going to the nearest soul food restaurant, choking down
the finest collard greens, sweet tea, and pickled pigs feet with some Frank's Red Hot Sauce with a side of magnesium citrate and then corn
shuting the whole sloppy brick into your eyes while wearing nothing but a Michael Sam jersey and screaming SHAAAAAZZZZBOT at the top of my Freddie
Mercury-esque falsetto range. What say we go around the horn again and give The People a fuckin' show? Do this for me. Do this for us. Please.
P.S. Yes, we can involve a pony, but I assure you the one I'm bringing can do more than one trick. He's a lil' black stallion,
however I'm certain that's nothing you haven't dealt with before. Best to start doing your stretches now, though.

Almost a year later, and still no sign of the overhyped circus coming to a town near you. Maybe talent (or a lack thereof) has something to do with
it?

I honestly cannot believe that you still have such a hard-on (pun totally intended) about this topic. Basically, your prediction was right - he
didn't pan out because he wasn't very good. Nobody really disputes that.
Why the outrage that he was drafted at all? The big, bad media making it a huge story? Well, it was a huge story, like it or not, and the media is
going to do what it does. When a member of a discriminated minority publicly comes out and plays in a historically conservative sport, then the media
is going to be all over that. Even lesbian-friendly sports like tennis have yet to have a man publicly come out, so it was a big deal, even if
Micheal Sam the football player ended up not being one.

A lot of top 10 NFL picks fail within a short time too, shit happens with the NFL... doesn't mean Sam shouldn't have been given a chance.
To call him a one-trick pony seems ridiculous for a SEC DPOY.

Aye, that's the rub. Literally.

Lots of you Yanks can't make it in the CFL. Even Dwayne Johnson was only good enough to be a bench warmer up here after he finished college at
Miami. If I'm going to laugh about Michael Sam it won't be for the gay stuff. It'll be for him showing up with an inflated ego (like
way too many American players do), thinking he didn't have to earn his spot on a CFL team, and then going back to the US with his tail between
his legs when he fucking washed out.
You know, everyone says it's not supposed to make sense, like that's the whole point, dude. And I'm just saying, you know,
that's like an excuse for lazy storytelling. Just don't sell me shite and tell me it's gold, all right? I might be stoned, but
I'm not high. You know what I mean?
