NFL free agent Michael Sam might not belong to a team, but his comic abilities are on point.

I mean let’s intelligently break this down for a moment.
The sound of their voice is so “puppy like.” They want to become “friends” with the celebrity and remain so cautious not to set them off in any way.
They become the eight-year old kid on the block who nobody wants to hang out with yet he’s always around.
In hilarious fashion, NFL free agent defensive-end Michael Sam brilliantly played to the vulnerabilities of this TMZ camera man and scored a gigantic one for the celebs in the infamous paparazzi-battle.
At first Sam seemed to be slightly annoyed that he and his partner, Vito Cammisano, were spotted during some traveling. Then though, he realized he can get away with a little fun once the camera man started to get into rumors surrounding his marriage plans.
Brilliantly realizing the TMZ camera man was oblivious to Game of Throne key words such as Westeros and Tywin Lannister, Sam provided entertainment for many around the world today.
TMZ has since claimed that they are amused and embarrassed by the incident. In fact, they’ve now promised to send more pop-culture savvy correspondents out in the field from now on.
