In the end it looks like Sam just didn't have what it take to go all the way.

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

If he could transform into a tight end he might be valuable for a few years.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

I hate that Sam didn't loosen up and enjoy himself. The word that I heard is that he was really loose in the locker room but the guys just wouldn't allow him to fit in.

Sometimes you just have to take it like a man and I'm not sure Sam did that. Maybe he was too vocal in the locker room when the guys were trying to help him fit in.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him pop up somewhere else and force himself into a wide receiver. He looks like he'd handle a position change and be receptive to that. Based on his past, I don't think he'd be a very good tight end, although he has the frame for it.

If he could just go straight into the Arena League, there may be a place for him there.

Bonus points for the reference to a certain light-bulb-centric 'chop.

You can keep a wooden stake in your trunk
On the off-chance that the fairy tales ain't bunk
And Imma keep a bottle of that funk
To get motel parking lot, balcony crunk.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."
