Quote:Even going on the assumption that Michael Sam just wants to play football,  not be what some would consider a pioneer :

 

I think there's a good chances that activists will attempt to keep Michael Sam in the spotlight for as long as possible.   With the media also trying to keep this a story for various reasons.     I'll be surprised if Michael Sam's rookie season isn't a media circus.    The upcoming Combine will likely be a preview for what's to come.   My guess is that Michael Sam will get more media coverage at the Combine than every other 2014 NFL Draft Prospect combined.  

 

Only he knows that, I think its unfair to assume that just because he was honest about himself that he wants to do more than play football.

 

If just wants to play football, keeps his head down and he refuses to answer anything but football questions, the media will get bored, because frankly who Michael Sam sleeps with isn't interesting.
