Free agent defensive lineman Michael Sam is now engaged to longtime boyfriend Vito Cammisano after popping the question from inside St. Peter's Basilica, which is in Vatican City, which is the epicenter of Roman Catholicism, which is one of many religions not so chill about the whole "being gay" thing.
