The First Fabulous Football Player

Michael Sam's coming out

A big butch black football player

Came out and said he's gay 

Why does anyone give a s**t 

As long as he can play

His college teammates didn't mind

When they won big games 

He was one of their star players

He helped them gain acclaim 

When fourteen haters protested 

On his college campus

Hundreds of students formed a wall 

To block the haters bias 

He clearly has the public's heart 

Cause most folks they don't mind 

A fabulous football player 

Most people think that's fine 

But the NFL is up in arms

Got their panty's in a bunch 

Maybe they're all closet cases 

or is that just my hunch 

They say gay will hurt his chances

on being drafted in 

Uncomfortable in locker rooms

God says gay is sin 

Oh put your big girl panties on 

and get over yourself 

Draft the fabulous footballer 

The issue will sort itself 

The barrier of students blocking the fourteen anti gay protesters 

Author's Note

The anti gay protesters were from the Westburo Baptist chuch. The same assholes who protested Military funerals linking the deaths to God's hatred of gays.Because of those protests Westburo Baptist church is the most despised organisation in America now and rightfully so. That's why they're so grossly outnumbered. Most people know ignorance when they see it.

Certainly not that last, a guided and "two fingers" up kind of piece, well done.

Thank you Thomas

Hmmmm. I have nothing against gays because I have lots of interesting, intelligent, and lovable gay friends.

Amusing poem, BR.

[Baby Ricochet]

Thank you Arzel

[Annabelle Lee]

I am so sick of all of this anti-gay stuff, let the people do what they want to. There's no need for another civil rights she-bang.

[Baby Ricochet]

That's what I'm saying

[AYVID N]

Of course, it does not matter any more so why is it still such a big deal with some people? Move on with the times. Great poem Baby. I am always amazed at your effortless rhyming. Thanks for sharing.

[Baby Ricochet]

thank you divya

[Tate Morgan]

Yeah I think we are way past this by now.The moral minority is gonna have to sit down and shut up for once! What does it matter anyway ? None of us care about the issue. He is a good player i dont give a damn what he does in his free time

[Baby Ricochet]

That's for sure. Thank you Tate

[Rita L. Sev]

I am stunned that NFL player had no problem being in a locker room with a guy who tortured animals (among other appalling things you read about some athletes) but they just won't tolerate a gay guy. What's up with that? (I won't get started on the WBC - that's a topic that might make me let fly with a few choice expletives...)

Male insecurity is a funny thing

[Tai Ryens]

Good ol' Westboro striking again, further cementing themselves as one of the most detested organizations in America. Actions such as that long line to block the protestors revive my hope in people (although it's usually killed within 10 minutes by another preposterous act by a bigot group). Good take on it, Baby R!

[Baby Ricochet]

Sometimes I feel the same way. Thanks Tai

Hey … if women have to play football in their underwear, so should men. Okay, off topic;) But it still blows my mind that people are still trying to police love. Yay the human barrier and yay this poem.

[Baby Ricochet]

Thank you pryde

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i really like this poem...and agree so much with its sentiment.

and i had a thought...for all those gay bashers and haters in the NFL

seems to me there is an awful lot of butt patting...

isn't that kind gay? as they congratulate each other for a good play...???

a better play would be for everyone to just mind his or her business and get along.

[Baby Ricochet]

Thank you Jacob

[Rene Velez]

Yeah, to each his own, let the man live, let him play, if they have such a problem with it give him his own office with a shower in it...s**t Ric. that sounds like a good deal, hell I won't even play just give me an office with a shower in it LOL...good one Ric

[Baby Ricochet]

Thank you Rene
