Most of the NFL world reacted in support of Sam, but some said it would be a "distraction" in the locker room, and that the NFL wasn't ready yet.
On his show Tuesday night, Jon Stewart ripped those people not in support of Sam. Stewart flashed photos of Michael Vick, Ray Lewis, and other NFL players who have been in legal trouble asking why the NFL is okay with them, but not an excellent athlete who is gay.
