The good news, I guess, is that I no longer have to support the Cowpies

Michael Sam, the first openly gay active NFL player, has been cut from the Dallas Cowboys practice team.

The team announced on Tuesday that they were cutting Sam to make way for linebacker Troy Daniels. Sam had been on the 10-man practice team since Week 1.

The St. Louis Rams drafted Sam in the seventh round. They cut him at the end of training camp because of an apparent wealth of options along the defensive line.

While it initially looked like Sam would have a better chance of making the Cowboys than he did the Rams, Dallas has been better than expected on defense.
