Bear in mind that the left is Zlatan's "weaker" foot, in the same sense that Little Boy was the weaker atomic bomb dropped on Japan.

Do you believe in miniscule technicalities?!?!

Back when I was an athlete in high school and college, I NEVER had sex the night before a competition. Sadly, neither did I the night after. Or the one after that. Or the one...

Dude, "Chinaman" is not the preferred nomenclature. "Asian-American," please.

That's exactly the WRONG way to think about this. You can't measure this in a relative way to other locker rooms. This is awful behavior. No one, in any capacity, should ever have to put up with this shit.

Incognito began calling him a "smelly," "dirty" or "stinky" "Pakistani."

Michael Sam has 2 siblings that were murdered, 1 disappear and declared dead and 2 in prison. I'd be inclined to do the opposite of whatever the hell dad Sam Sr. says.

This article would've been far better-timed like two weeks ago when it didn't look like Atleti was about to pull a Detroit Lions and utterly collapse. They got absolutely demolished by Madrid in the Copa last week and followed it up with a 2-nil loss to a relegation-threatened Almeria side.

"he's an overrated player in our estimation." — GM who probably would've drafted Heath Shuler if he had had the opportunity

While I understand Drew's sentiments, it's also a painful reminder of the double-standard LGBT people have to face.

Tangentially related: It's time for SI and everyone else to start naming some sources. I get that anonymous sources are a part of journalism. But at the moment, the anti-Sam faction is composed ENTIRELY of anonymous sources. And that's bullshit. If these guys are so sure he'd be a distraction, that he's over-rated,…

I will say the turn around from SEC Defensive player of the year with great stats to "He's inflated statistically and not very good. His sacks came against weak teams," was stunning. Like Usain Bolt Fast.

On CBS' draft board Sam dropped 70 spots overnight.

A League that can take back Michael Vick and even name him Comeback Player Of The Year, surely can't turn its back on Michael Sam? — Unlike Vick he hasn't even done anything wrong.

I doubt Dungy is going to have anything enlightened to say on this subject matter either, so you're forgiven.

"Get him away from the children!" Putin

If no one drafts him you can make a case that it was clearly because he is gay. He's one of the best defensive players on one of the best defenses in the NCAA. Is he the best DE coming into the draft, no, but he's definitely in that top tier. When you consider how badly most NFL teams are seeking quality DE's,…
