If someone on the team has a problem with it, then release or trade them, if anyone looks like they have a problem with it, release or trade them..
This culture and team is toxic, we need someone who has an identity that is unmatched, and at this point and time, considering the circumstances, have we seen a person with a stronger identity than Michael Sam?
I don't think so..he was born a certain way and I don't care who he's attracted to, I do care that he is willing to stand up and tell the world who he is, in the face of one the most powerful organizations in the world..the NFL.What guts, what leadership, everything that this team is missing..
I started this thread because I don't want it to get lost, make fun of it if you wish, call it an overreaction, so be it, but the campaign begins now, this culture, this franchise, this team, needs Michael Sam, I hope that you can see that,
As for the players, if you have a problem with that, or him, in any way that isn't related to the field,then go somewhere else to play, I don't want your kind..

DJ...
Why do we need Sam? Do we need him because hes a great football player, and a good person? Or because hes gay and showed courage by coming out? Michael Sam would tell you your wrong for wanting him for that reason. He should be treated like every other football player, his sexual preference should have nothing to do with anything.
But...Im curious why you werent saying we need Sam, BEFORE he came out publicly.the 23rd, LiferYank, Pandarilla and 1 other person like this. -
This is the last team that needs Sam. It's a locker room in crisis. If it goes badly, it would have the potential to devastate the team and give the NFL a massive black eye.

I don't think any NFL team "needs" a 6th round or undrafted tweener

Why in the world is it in crisis currently? -
Even once they're gone, a lot of people who probably did know about this stuff and let it fester are still there. It's like cutting out a tumor and then declaring the cancer cured 5 minutes after the surgery. Nope. Only time and examination can confirm we're cancer free.DPlus47 likes this. -
I agree. Draft Sam... then Incognito needs to kiss him full on the mouth to show his support and acceptance. Then, Ted Wells can file a report on the kiss.

We have no need for another DE. No need for more media drama. And no need to draft a controversial middle round prospect to come in and try to be a leader as a rookie who won't even get snaps

HIS ABILTY TO UNITE HIS TEAM AND FOR THEM TO CALL HIM THEIR CAPTAIN..
Look deeper into your own team, this culture, then look at what this kids makeup is all about, and what kind of impact he had on his teammates, and town..
He won a whole team and city over by who he is..he won all of their respect..
We need him regardless if he doesn't have first round talent, bottom line, Michael Sams talent is worth the risk of a draft pick. -
Sounds to me like you are just a gay rights supporter (no problem w that) who wants the Dolphins to take him to make a statement, as opposed to what actually improves the roster. We have a tough enough time finding snaps for Jordan. This guy wouldn't even play -
I'll bet you Pouncey , incognito , or John fat *** Jerry wouldn't say #### to Michael Sam...lol..damn strait they wouldn't.
That's why he's the perfect fit..to set a new example of what kind of character will become Miami dolphins. -

I think he can literally change a lot of what's wrong. -

I put most of this in the Club, but I'll put it here as well.
I was listening to Colin Cowherd at lunch on the way to playing basketball, and he had former Palm Beach Post reporter (now reporting in New England), Greg Bedard, on his show. I kind of liked Bedard when he was here, and PBP followed him up with Jeff Darlington, whom I also liked. Both are gone and have been replaced with guys I don't prefer as much, but that's beside the point.
Anyway, long story short, what Greg Bedard was saying after studying Sams tape - football and only football - is that Sams is an average pro prospect at best and he wrote an article for MMQB on CNNSI here stating such:
Personally, I think that's going to be a little hard to buy, but it was interesting. Anyway, where do you guys legitimately see Sams getting drafted. Is Bedard just way off base? -
Why do you have a problem with that.. -

I'm sure Sam is a commendable individual, and I don't care if he's gay or bi or whatever, but championing him for FINALLY admitting to everyone, including his teammates who are supposed to be his brothers in arms, who he truly is not showing more strength of identity or leadership in my opinion than someone who is themselves from day 1.dolphindebby and Den54 like this. -
Disappointing response I must say.ckparrothead likes this. -

Trying to say that I'm about him because of the media is insulting..
I believe in myself and what this team needs and how to identify certain things in players..I'm willing to risk on the talent side for the intangible side.especially where I can get him. -
Oher? -
If you think my opinion is based on what the media has portrayed then you know what you can do..
The man was on tv telling the world, your harping on the fact that I watched him do it...lol, whatta joke, you obviously have no clue for where I'm coming from and how much I've thought about it.
