I once wrote about Michael Sam, which is pretty good considering that I never watch NFL professional football. I don't even watch the Super Bowl. But he got drafted into the NFL back in May and garnered a lot of attention for kissing his boyfriend. I thought that meant society was finally ready to move on, but a commenter named Joyce taught me differently. But I've written once about Michael Sam.
Since then, Michael Sam has received a ton of media attention, including an awkward ESPN piece about his showering habits. His performance wasn't completely up to snuff and he ended up getting cut from the St. Louis Rams. He then got signed onto the Dallas Cowboys' practice squad, which seems like a pretty good thing. Michael Sam is now Cowboy #46.
Not everybody is happy about this. There is this anti-Michael Sam activist/GOP lobbyist named Jack Burkman who has been campaigning about Michael Sam and any NFL team that signs with him since May. Supposedly, Burkman is a member of some group named American Decency. He claims that "thousands of right-wing Christians" will be protesting against the Dallas Cowboys for signing Michael Sam onto the team's practice squad.
Keep in mind that American Decency has outright denied their involvement with this protest attempt. But they are also against Michael Sam's sinful homo-lifestyle.
