He will make the team or not based on his football abilities and performance. Regardless, some dummy will be claiming that it's because of his sexuality whichever way that goes.
It's news because it's groundbreaking. Most people won't care about the second one. It was news when Jackie Robinson played for the Dodgers, now nobody even notices that the 2nd baseman is black. He's not the first gay to play in the NFL, he's just the first that everybody knew about beforehand.
freedom of oppression you guys are great.:lamo
if he doesn't make the team i figure it will have little to do with him being gay and him just not having the skills to play the position up to expectations.
has nothing to do with what i said but ol well.
the only people making a big deal about it is people like you. To everyone else he is a mid-level 7th rounder no that big of a deal.
