I LIKE LIKE Mike

AITOOW doesn't have a problem with Michael Sam being gay? Hell, if you are looking for a player to chase down a same sex opponent, wouldn't you want him to be gay? Wouldn't he try harder than a straight man? Then again, maybe the other guy would try harder to get away. What I don't like is that I believe he did it to ensure he WAS drafted (and probably higher than before the "revelation"). Now, if someone doesn't give in to tokenism, the whole league is homophobic. It's like Jason Collins. He only "found the courage" when his ability was no longer good enough. He probably thought he could get a TV job as an oddity at the worst. I also wonder about the claims of the "penetration" of gay athletes into sport. I believe high school "sorts" out a majority of personality types into the activities that they prefer. That's why is believe most actors and artists are gay. If the "sorting" does occur, then it would be logical that the mix in society (10%) is not indicative of the mix in sports. At least manly sports. Soccer is different story. Do you think that soap on a rope will make a comeback because of this?
