Dolphin CB suspended for tweeting "OMG, horrible" after Sam's gay kiss

this is a discussion within the NFL Community Forum; If he had kissed his girlfriend after hearing his name called, wouldn't even be noticed. Every other player does the same thing. Same sex relationships are not hidden in the world we live in now and that is just how ...

Same sex relationships are not hidden in the world we live in now and that is just how it is. If they had had a broadcasted make-out session, well different story. I had no problem with it, his life.

Hey, if our society can find 11 zillion other things offensive, I don't see a problem with many people finding a homosexual make-out session on a loop offensive.

And the issue here isn't his swapping spit on TV with his homosexual lover, its the fact that another person was fined and suspended for apparently being offended by it.

It seems quite hypocritical to me.

Re: Dolphin CB suspended for tweeting "OMG, horrible" after Sam's gay kiss

I could care less if he's a gay football player. I don't agree with that "chosen" lifestyle and I don't care if there are gay players in the NFL. Can you play football at a high level? That's all I care about. What makes me upset is the fact that it's more about a person's chosen sexual preference than it is about a sport that we all love to watch and the fact that a player can now be fined and suspended for voicing their disapproval over that televised circus that is our politically correct world of today. Go ahead and dish out your way of life for the world to see but be prepared to take the criticism that comes with it too. This whole thing has turned into one big circus.

What goes around comes around!

So you are that deep into it that you want to see anyone kiss another person? This new era belief that "its right because they make it right" is pure rationalization. I don't want to see Drew kiss his wife, Tebow kiss God, or Sam his his lover.


These are the only acceptable NFL kisses.




Mouth on mouth kissing should be edited out.

Wow, so many of you are missing the point.
A man was punished for simply tweeting "OMG horrible" after seeing it

Danno, he wasn't punished because he tweeted "OMG horrible", that is just the excuse put on paper.

This is the Miami Dolphins we are talking about, they are so hypersensitive after the Incognito/Martin issue that some of their coaches knew about, condoned, and championed... that the organization has gone overboard trying to change the image painted by themselves. This CB wasn't punished for what he said, he was punished to try and clean up the image of the Miami Dolphins.

Sacrificial Lamb.

OK, but thats every bit as wrong as being punished for what he tweeted and still has nothing to do with tolerating Sam's sexual preference.

I am agreeing... 100%. No matter how much you polish a turd it is still a turd.

I am just pointing out the underlying issue with the NFL and the way it frames things so that the fans think it is something else. This was about Miami and what happened last year, Bounty-gate was about concussion lawsuits.

The shield is trying to present a softer less liable side.

I DON'T SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH SAYING OMG! HORRIBLE

It's wasn't a derogatory or insulting statement , it was a surprising reaction. What Pouncey said after the bullying scandal should've been looked @ if anything.
