In this thread, Terr and I (and perhaps others) made a wager on whether Michael Sam would get drafted. I said he would and Terr said he wouldn’t.
He did get drafted, just barely, so I win. I’m posting this with Terr’s permission. The stakes (for my bet) were $20 to a charity of the winner’s choice. I thought about picking some liberal favorite like Planned Parenthood, but ultimately I decided on Doctors Without Borders.
Terr has promised to post the receipt, so this thread is a good place for that.
Congratulations to me! And Michael Sam, of course.
NFL Draft Scout report: “Needs to consistently wrap on tackle attempts and not just hit his target…plays wild and needs to stay under control and balanced to make consistent stops…stiff midsection and hips, inhibiting him from quickly changing directions…struggles in man coverage to find the ball and keep his feet moving to stick with targets downfield…awareness is still a work-in-progress, too often he is a step late to the play against the pass - too many incorrect reads with questionable diagnose skills…suspect ballskills and doesn’t make enough plays on the ball…undisciplined striker and will get flagged for targeting and head-hunting, going for the knockout blow…needs to keep his wits and stay under control, both physically and emotionally…character needs investigated after Sept. 2013 assault charges after repeatedly punching a fan in the face that he accused of breaking into his apartment (charges later dropped).”
NFL Draft Scout report: “” (Nothing, because he wasn’t rated high enough to actually get a report made.
Those are the draft reports for Ahmad Dixon and Demetrius Rhaney, the guys taken immediately before, and immediately after, Michael Sam.
Tell me, Terr, were they thrown a bone too? Did the Cowboys and the Rams get the short stick on them also? Or is it just gay men who get all these benefits?
Bricker’s receipt is forthcoming.
