      Which the company he works has a right to do. He represents the NFL and the Dolphins and his statements they believe is bigotry and are not in line with how they want to be represented. The first amendment does not protect him from this. The fact that you think it would says a lot about you.

          no, hating the act of gay sex is not a form of bigotry.

            They didn't have gay sex on TV. Stfu. And actually... yes it is because you're not the one having it. It's none of your business who Michael Sam fucks in the ass.

                  It's just so wrong to me to see someone fined for something in expressing their opinion on something they don't agree with. Why are people being forced to accept different ideals? If someone doesn't agree or believe in something they should be able to openly express their opinions without consequences

                      They aren't being forced to accept anything. He could've kept his mouth shut and/or condemned by himself to himself under his breath.

                        If you're sitting around watching the 7th round of the draft on ESPN, you deserve whatever they throw at you.

                          Next time your boss tells you to do something you don't want to do, tell him/her to fuck off. Make sure you tell him/her that you're just expressing your opinion.

                              Exactly. It's going against the teams wishes to post things like that on social media. Don't be naive here, teams discuss these policies with all of their players in this day and age. I had a social media policy at work, which I'm sure many others do as well.

                              Let's not forget, he's "suspended". By the time they get into the swing of things he will be back.

                                If I walked up to my boss tomorrow and called her a skanky broad, should I get fired?

                                It's just my opinion. I'm a good worker.
