I think u r totally missing the point....

The comparisons stick because Dungy never made an attempt to allude to playing a role in helping Vick (who I believe got a raw deal) return to the league...

In other words, Dungy would have came off a lot more sympathetic if he were to say that it was easy to deal with a distraction like Michael Vick because he was a former Pro Bowler who at that point was still easily one of the most gifted athletes in the NFL. Whereas Michael Sam is not worth the distraction because he doesn't have the talent of a Vick. Such honesty would have been a breath of fresh air...

But that's not what happened...Instead, Dungy made a general statement about Sam being a diversion, which due to his right-wing religious ties came off looking suspect...For that reason, Dungy came off looking like a hypocrite given his past with helping troubled NFL players come back to the league....
