It's about encouraging teams to take on the Michael Vick distraction but saying he wouldn't want to deal with the Michael Sam distraction.


Seems pretty hypocritical to me.

It isn't hypocritical at all. He simply said he didn't feel like he could handle the situation, for whatever reason. Obviously he felt he could handle Vick and Plax.


Which are two entirely different situations by the way. The only one you could compare to the circus and attention of Michael Sam would be Michael Vick. For what it's worth I wouldn't have taken Michael Vick but that has little to do with the dog fighting or the negative attention he would bring. Plax isn't even close.


I can imagine Tony Dungy isn't the only one league wise (retired or not) who felt Michael Sam the player and what he brings to the table from a talent standpoint would not be worth the attention and distraction.
