    Then I suggest you don't read them. The OP ask for opinions. I gave mine. If that's disapointing for you then so be it.

    To me, it's like any other number of human abnormalities. We just can't control which hand of cards we get dealt, in all of the various ways it can unfold.

    He has got to do more if he's going to make it in this league. He's a one trick pass rusher and he doesn't even have a move that going to work in the pros. Sam is going to struggle in my opinion.

    The gay stuff I could care less about. All that matter to me is if Sam can help my team and In my opinion the answer is no. I wish him luck though. He seems like a good kid.

    I know, its crazy. The older I get, the more I realize that I have no control over my life what so ever. Every choice I appear to make was influenced by prior causes, Its a very strange feeling.

    Sorry! I was more responding to the post about the "mindfuck," which was explained. You gave a caveat with yours, which I respect. I will be quiet now :)

    I had similar views as yourself not very long ago. Then, about 7 years ago, I found out my best friend is gay.

    Changes things for sure.
    No, I understand completely. I have a niece who is gay and I care deeply for her. I only found this out about 5 years ago. My sister (her mom) was a total wreck for a while. It definitely changes the way you think about these things.

    PFT saying we would've offered him a contract if he went undrafted, along with Bears & Giants

    its kinda weird for me watching anyone kiss. I'll admit it's even more weird when its two guys, mainly cause i just dont understand the attraction to another man. But to each his/her own.

    THat said, i hope people (ESPN) leave his private life alone and give him a chance to succed based on his ability. Im pulling for him it took guts to "come out".

    I have a cousin through marriage who is gay. Went to he and his mates house a bunch of that's ago for thanksgiving. All I saw was two people who love and care for each other. Their gender for me didn't matter. I agree with other posters and hope we reach a point where this is a non issue.

    There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for and why it is here it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarrely inexplicable…

    There is another theory which states that this - has - already - happened…

    Marginal talent, we'll see if he does anything. The other part of it is a media circus that's not about football.
