and despite the fallout ESPN got from running that story that doesn't mean the all reporters are going stop asking those kinds of questions.

So if you bring in Michael Sam your entire organization from coaches to players and everybody else is probably going to have to be coached by the PR folks on what to say and what not to say regarding Sam. All it takes one reporter throwing out a loaded question and somebody making an off-hand comment or joke then the media will take that and run with it and that player or coach would be labeled as a bigot and there would be calls for them to be fined/cut/fired. A lot of teams are not going to want to deal with all that for a guy that's a 2nd or 3rd stringer at best.
