Michael Sam says there are 'a lot' of gay players in the NFL

Michael Sam says there are 'a lot' of gay players in the NFL and some have reached out to him.

The Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported Sam gave a speech Thursday at the Dallas Holocaust Museum and took questions from the audience.

Sam said: 'I'm just saying there is a lot of us.' He added he'd never out a player who confided in him, but 'there's some famous people'.

10:48 its not about the truth, if you are gay great, go be gay, but stop trying to force me if I am not gay to accept your lifestyle, stop openly flaunting it in peoples faces and demand that we accept it, just go on with your life and mind your own business

Accepting a lifestyle and infringing on people's rights are two different things.

11:34 just because someone acknowledges the fact that they are gay doesn't mean they are forcing it on you. You can not ALWAYS tell whether a person is gay or straight based upon looking at a person. Some people "look" gay but are not and clearly some people who don't look gay are. No one worries if they see two women together. That is accepted but two men is taboo. It's a double standard just like cheating, if a man cheats its a notch on a belt if a woman cheats she is a wh***, sl**, and words such as that. So get over your homophobic self, if you are confident in your sexuality than it shouldn't bother you that someone differs from your lifestyle and because its different doesn't mean its forced upon you. Also just because a person is gay doesn't mean they want everyone of a particular sex to be their partner. Educate yourself. In the end we all bleed red and we all are humans and have needs who cares how they are fulfilled as long as it isn't by rape or with children or animals? There are bigger issues such as murder, the economy,and drugs that you should be worried about.

Wow. Thanks for telling us something that most people already know. Yes, there are gay people in sports, military, education, religion etc. Now we know you love the spotlight but your 15 minutes are over. Seriously....go away.
