Does this idiot really think this is going to get him on an NFL roster?
Every fringe NFL player in the history of time thought they were worthy of being on a roster. It's called human nature.

Oh, I see what's going on here. Nevermind.

Why?
Because in that hypothetical, he'd deserve all, or let's be honest, most of the ridicule he'd get.

I personally think he was discriminated for his orientation but his act needs to stop. Not his place to comment on other players in the league. His act is getting old

Why shouldn't it be an accomplishment? Because he sought fame for it, as opposed to someone like a Jackie Robinson or Beckie Ham?

I guess it would take an expert in the field to know this.

If anyone is exploiting his homosexuality it's ABC. The only thing I'd really criticize him for is for not putting 100% of his time and effort towards making a camp roster for 2015, provided football remains his top priority. But hey, ABC came to him with a bunch of money and said "here, add to your growing fame." I've never been a celebrity or a professional athlete, but from what I understand, they jump at many opportunities like that.

Was he discriminated against warly on? I don't know.

But at this point he isn't taking football seriously. He should have turned down Dancing with the Stars, dedicated himself to practicing football and displayed his interest.

What team is going to pick up a guy who runs significantly slower than one year ago, has a contract with a TV show that takes place during camp, and could bring problems to the locker room?

What do you base that opinion on?

Every bit of news we hear and word from execs, it doesn't seem like he's worth of a roster spot based on his skills.

He's is 100% correct

Not the only gay person in the NFL. He's not in the NFL.

I didn't appreciate him and his boyfriend sucking cake out of each other's mouths on national television when he got drafted.

That's his shtick.

He race/gender baits like nobodies business. It doesn't bother me too much on the OT/Poliboard, but irritates the heck out of me on the MSB.

Not sure what that means, but if it's that I should have known SS's schtick...I am the absolute worst and knowing posters schticks...unless they post a lot about the NBA. I just don't pay attention much to poster's names when i'm reading threads.

Guilty as charged.

It happens. Posting types change too, I've become a lot nicer a person over the years, I used to be a massive a-hole as a poster.

Strong safety makes anything about race and how racist the white posters here are.

If even half the time he's as paranoid as he is on here, he must live a very sad existence thinking every white person is out to get him.
