Just checked out TD this morning for the first time and surprised there was a thread about Michael Sam receiving the Arthur Ashe Courage Award

You'd assume there'd be like 3 or so threads made about this last night.

I've seen the reports. Only 13 people watch the ESPYs.

The what award? No one cares about Sam anymore. Seems like that whole coming out thing blew over pretty quick. Kinda surprising actually.

Not really. Nobody gives a shite about the espys or Sam. It's like the mtv music awards.

That's what I thought as well. Haven't heard of this guy until I saw people post on facebook about how ESPN gave him an award for being courageous or something.

I think you are overestimating the amount of people who watch the espys.

Who gives a frick - he's a new Tebow-type overrated by ESPN player that'll be out of the league in a year. Of course ESPN gave him an award because his name isn't in the papers right now and pretty much everyone quit giving a shite.

If he wants to impress people, make the team, make some tackles in regular season games - show you belong. Don't rely on ESPN to keep your name in the paper and wind up on the SEC Network in three years.

Impress us with your play, not the constant barrage of your sexual orientation.

That's what Sam is trying to do.

He's not the one putting his name out there.

So he isn't the one that agreed to have a reality show before it got nixed?

He's the one who nixed it.

And he didn't approach the networks and say, "hey, give me a reality show".

You seem a little upset. Dude is just trying to make a buck.
