Sam to the rams

[Dan Drives a Van]

Who has the time to sit there all day scratching their balls listening to McShay and Kiper. I couldn't even sit through the entire 1st round

The NFL Network broadcast was actually pretty good. Mayock sucks as a play-by-play guy, but he was on hi game as a draft analyst.

Mayock basically called out his own network for the preoccupation with immediate draft grades, calling it something like 'the most meaningless segment we've ever done on this network.' I think they were planning on doing more, but sheepishly cut to commercial instead.

Over The Top

I just wonder how it can be over the top when you have a young man who just had a lifetime dream become a reality share that moment with someone he loves

It was so incredibly over the top. The 30 second lip quivering phone call. The gentle bicep massage. The synchronized crying. It set gays back again.

I have no problem with homosexuality but it was just annoying and WAY over the top. I wish him the best and hope he gets equal opportunity. I just wish he came out and maybe a subtle little cry (or none at all), quick embrace and then some celebrating. It was just bizarre. Seemed choreographed.

You only thought it was over the top because he did it with another man. He does that with a woman, and you two aren't talking about how over the top it was.

Exactly. If it was some hot chick the neanderthals on here would be salivating over her jugs. Imagine anyone posting "I was uncomfortable watching him kiss her, it seemed so choreographed, he should have just given her a 'quick embrace'...a side hug would have been even better."

Yep, because if you support gay men making out with the cameras rolling you must be a lesbian.

[Snakebitten]

Did you edit the funny part?

[art vandelay]

Dude I work with was talking about how it wouldn't have been a story if Sam wasn't gay. What a revelation. If Michael Sam weren't the first openly gay player drafted it wouldn't have been a story. Who would've thought.

[slag]

For the record, I'm not really interested watching anybody kissing.

But if I had to watch it, throwing in some hot jugs makes it significantly more watchable for me than two dudes.

Ellen In Ohio

Bwah. Perfect name for the board's drama queen. Too bad that handle was taken already. Ellen in Ohio is like an episode of Oprah.

[Snakebitten]

There's jugs in the background. You're welcome.

[slag]

I didn't write "with" two dudes.

Chances Are They'll Keep Him

If they cut him -- no matter how he plays -- some Gay Rights crusader, individual or organization, will surely turn it into a cause celebre. I think the fear of that was the real reason he stayed on the board as long as he did.

Thank you Dr. Obvious.
