Maybe someone can explain this to me logically

I don't know, slap his name on a butt plug and let the money roll in. :SIB

Since it has been pointed out that the cake thing obviously isn't hetro related, I'm assuming Betty Crocker or Duncan Hines is knocking down his door to get him inked for some cake and frosting commercials.

You are so cynical, that was clearly the most impromptu moment in gay history. :0corn

What bothered me more was how planned out and staged the entire thing was. Never seen a straight player smear cake all over his girlfriends face then kiss it off... Cameras rolling of course.. Seemed more interested in making a statement than excited about being drafted..

Having said that. The guy is a genius. He knows he will probably never start but he will make more than Lebron in endorsements.

I think he is smart too, he would not have been drafted had he been straight, it was scripted by Disney and ESPN to make a political statement

If endorsements don't work out he could have his own reality tv show on the LOGO channel?

The Rams will be on Hard Knocks I am sure

So he is a genius, apparently has good business sense, and is a good athlete... and you don't like him? I just love how the billionth tasteless, self centered, and capitalist driven thing we have been exposed to on television is the one that suddenly pissed some people off. And the group being pissed off the most seems to be people who have some other problem with gay people, either overtly or subconsciously. Hmmm. :thinking:

Oh and not lumping you into any viewpoint vis-?-vis homosexuality. I am sure there are tons of people who didn't like the draft moment who aren't anti-gay... but come on you must admit that is the group seemingly getting the most upset.

you are certainly entitled to your opinion. this statement makes zero sense, however, as airportis pointed out. in fact, the early speculation was that he was a solid 3rd to 4th round pick. IF ANYTHING, his coming out may have cost him a few rounds.

I'm pretty sure his falling in the Draft had more to do with Vito stealing Noles Shirt than anything.....:shrug:

:facepalm:

I seriously doubt he gets near 1/10th of what Lebron gets.

You really think Sam is going to get over 30 million a year in endorsements?

Man everyone takes every word so literal around here.. No he wont get as much as Lebron

That being said.. He will be able to get endorsement deals that he most likely otherwise would not be able to get. Especially if he is just another average Joe player. Drafted in the 7th round that is most likely the case.

I think the cake and kissing thing in full view of the cameras was a big part of that..

Genius

You stated it twice, so yeah, people are going to take it literal.
