The Montreal Gazette is hearing DE Michael Sam left the CFL's Alouettes because he sensed he was going to get cut. Sam walked away the team for "personal reasons" before their exhibition opener and is not expected back. From the Gazette: "The latest theory concerning Sam’s departure was that he simply wasn’t good enough to make the roster, sensed this and left to save himself and the organization embarrassment." It's looking more and more unlikely that Sam will become the NFL's first openly gay player.

How bad was the East division that they couldn't do a good job blocking him?

He definitely deserves a second Arthur Ashe courage award for coming to the realization that he sucks (this time at football).

But the guy is a sack specialist who penetrates the hole well enough to fit on any D.

They probably kept saying "eh!" after every sentence and he misconstrued it as them calling him gay.

That's why I put "reportedly"

I assume a Canadian paper is more plugged in than anyone else

Could be bullshite, but seems like a pretty high chance of being true

If he gets cut in the CFL, he loses his "NFL TEAMS WONT GIVE ME A SHOT" card

Not really. They are looking out for what is best for the team. Nobody wants that attention whore distracting the rest of their team.

This is why Karl Malone did not want Magic playing in the all-star game.
