but i believe he can be 100% Football and still have other ventures...
With his college record he should have been at the very least a third round pick. His coming out defiantly had an effect on the draft.

The show hasn't been filmed yet, it was going to document his life away from the practices and such. they were at his house filming the day he got drafted but it wasn't already filmed ready to go once he got drafted.
his Agenda, as far as i know is to make the Team and play Football which he loves, yes he wants to be a Role Model for Youth and LGBT sports but i don't believe it's a "Sinister Agenda"
I wonder out loud, do people have a problem that he is a 7th round pick with this Attention, or because he is a Gay Football player. now this has nothing to do with "Homophobia" or "Bigotry" or if you like or dislike a Gay Football player, but if he was picked in the First round, would he be called a distraction? would his Documentary get as much criticism?
or if he was straight and picked in the 7th round would he equally get criticism?

So what,
I dont know about that. Being disappointed by this does not mean a person like me thinks any less of him or hopes any less success for him.

a reply to: Tucket
Him having a Documentary before he was Drafted doesn't make him any less of a person of hope for any LGBT sports player.
it seems people are looking for excuses to cast him off and say "He was, but now"

So what,
I just posted this because the guy appeared to be a beacon of hope for many people.
Now he just looks like another sell out who will probably never even play professional football.
The show hasn't been filmed yet,...
“Everything seems orchestrated now. We didn’t
know that there was a documentary TV show
already in the process of being filmed and now
we do. Now we judge everything in that light
and we have to wonder, was it genuine
emotion? Or is this a part of a reality TV show?”
