Title: Why the St.Louis Rams Drafted Michael Sam Post by: Marshal Dillon on March 23, 2016, 10:22:44 PM I knew down deep something was up over his selection in the 7th round. Every single report I read on Sam's stated he was either too slow with poor lateral movement to play LB or too small with average technique to play DE. Political correctness strikes again.
Quote Almost two years ago, the St. Louis Rams selected defensive end Michael Sam in the seventh round of the NFL Draft. At the time, the Rams were hailed for being progressive by drafting the first openly gay player in the National Football League. It turns out, according to multiple sources, that the league agreed not to ask the Rams to appear that year on HBO's yearly summer series, "Hard Knocks," if they drafted Sam. http://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/nfl-made-deal-with-rams-over-selecting-sam/ar-BBqQMlD?li=BBnbfcL Title: Re: Why the St.Louis Rams Drafted Michael Sam Post by: BillBrosky on March 24, 2016, 07:37:31 AM Quote Shortly after his college career at Missouri ended, Sam came put publicly, :facepalm: Title: Re: Why the St.Louis Rams Drafted Michael Sam Post by: 2Stater on March 24, 2016, 07:51:31 AM Quote Shortly after his college career at Missouri ended, Sam came put publicly, :facepalm: :lol2: Talk about your typos? |
