Sam claims he wants to be known as a football player and I believe America is ready to grant him that, but, last night's display when he got drafted says otherwise. It was only about his homosexuality. So, whether he's complicit in it or just the unintended victim of his allies' enthusiasm, I suspect he will merely be known as a homosexual and, sadly, nothing else.
Kissing his boyfriend means he doesn't want to be known just as a football player? Should he have re-closeted himself for the cameras?
Like so many things in sports, it will just blow over. Media will hype it, and then everyone will remember that sports is sports and teammates have your back.
I mean, Jason Collins' story just went by just like that.

He won't even make the roster. He's not that good. Then we can have threads about how he was cut because he was gay.

you didn't pay attention to my post. I said maybe he does, maybe he doesn't. But shoving cake in the face of your gay lover and then eating it off of his chin is over the top, even for heterosexuals.

No but his sexual orientation is the reason those cameras were there in the first place.

Yea, sitting next to the first lady during the state of the union speech is a sure fire indicator of how much of a non story Collins proved to be.
Unless he was just being used as a prop by a shameless but evolving politician.

Kissing his boyfriend on TV was a test. Those that were disgusted are the new bigots.
