I am a huge Panthers fan

but why in the #### do you guys or anyone care what Cam does or doesn't do after a game. He was pi55ed about losing the biggest game of his career. Some of you clowns act like he slit the throat of a reporter and drank his blood on sportscenter.

FACT OF THE MATTER IS A LOT OF PEOPLE ON THIS BOARD ARE NOT HAPPY UNLESS THEY CAN TALK JUNK ABOUT A PLAYER. THEY LOVE THROWING CLEMSON COACHES AND PLAYERS UNDER THE BUS.

Seems precarious and foreboding. Ominous even. Doesn't bode well!

Its the PC in them.....
They're just like the tree hugging liberals that come out every time a black guy doesn't get hired for a job.
Cam Newton has a responsibility to act like they want him to and if he doesn't he's a spoiled little brat....

Disclaimer : I am not a Panthers fan
Feb 8, 2016, 12:15 PM
[ in reply to Re: I am a huge Panthers fan ] |

And nor am I a fan of any professional team. I like to watch it, but no need to have a team. It doesn't resonate with me the way college football does.
With that said, Cam is under precisely zero requirement to behave in any way other than the way he wants to (and to some extent the way his employer asks/requires). But I will add that when you get paid mega bucks to throw a ball and "lead" a team, you open yourself up to criticism when you don't do those well. But I have no dog in the fight. It simply looked like he was physically and emotionally whipped. It happens. He's human.
And so are the folks who criticize him. It's all entertainment for cripes sake. Take the "PC Tree Hugging liberal" crud away for a second and just think about it like this (or at least this is howI think about it).
Can Newton is a character. A created character played by a man who gets paid well to play that character. And just like any character some folks will love him and others will not. SOme folks will vilify his (perhaps minuscule) missteps and others will choose to defend his (perhaps large) mistakes.
It's not rocket science or world peace. It's entertainment.

Sorry I don't go along with the whole "it comes with the territory" spill...
To me that just gives the media an excuse to do what they do.
I wish more players would take the Marshawn Lynch approach and just play football and go home. I could care less what they have to say. I watch the game for myself. I didnt need Cam to tell me the pass protection was horrible last night.

It's part of the job

Now I get you don't like that it's part of the job, but it is. When you become a star in the league and are paid like a star in the league you know that part of the job is sitting on a stage and answering idiotic questions.
They're mind-numbingly stupid questions, no doubt. They are often trick questions intended to elicit a response that can be taken out of context. Everyone knows it, but those questions and the articles they lead to, and the new coverage they create are PART OF THE WAY YOU GET PAID.
Do your job. And if you don't you get criticized by some blowhard or another. Not me, I don't care. But don't act surprised when you do.

Is he not a spoiled brat because he is a great football player?

Let's start with Scam's. I believe he has made that demonstration in the end zone before.
