Cam Newton is a tool. Also, Johnny Manziel is a loser.

Believe in yourself and you can do it.

Lame.

He’s just racist

Practically everything in sports is based on silly over determined conclusions. You are essentially rallying against a foundation pillar of sports writing.

Jim Kelly in the post game press conference after Super Bowl 28 (I can’t find video because it was from 1992):

But isn’t that to some degree what Cam supporters, and even Cam himself do? I mean if you say anything critical of Newton you are branded by many, (including many writers on this site) as a racist hillbilly and automatically lumped in with the Bill Romanowski’s of the world. And lets be honest, if you think Cam gets…

Your post is so full of evidence that it’s hard to argue with.

Read your first sentence over and then bring up grammar again.

Why even read this miserable clickbait? Deadspin proves time again that it’s populated with the beer-lubricated detritus raked from the cortical depths of a pack of armchair quarterbacks. This post is the quintessential example of that.

When you go out in warmups and wear cleats that are golden and say MVP, you're clearly begging for some attention. If you're that prepared for praise you should probably expect some criticism to the same level on the other end if things backfire.

I don’t know about others, but this is how Russell Wilson reacted at his post-game press conference after what was a much more heartbreaking SB loss than the Panthers just faced:

I knew the design of Levis Stadium made the east side seats particularly hot. That must have been where Drew was sitting to bake up all these scorching takes.

Honestly, you can’t just say “vast majority of players.” Your point of comparison HAS to be the star/face of the team.

What the fuck? When did Deadspin turn into a shitty fucking hot take factory?

I acknowledge that Cam is a good QB, but I find his attitude and self-absorption insufferable. I think there were plenty of examples of this from this game, particularly his tantrum after that 3-24 play in the 4th quarter.

Seriously? Your post-Superbowl shit talk is about Peyton and not about Newton? League MVP who shit his pants on the biggest stage in the biggest game.. No mention of the fact that he would not dive on a loose ball and basically ended Carolina’s chances?

No ones going to bring up Cam Newton getting scared shitless and not going for his last fumble?

Noticed CBS seemed to shy away from showing replays of high, hard hits. I don’t think they ever even showed the blindside penalty on the punt. Just trying to squeeze in as many commercials, or NFL memo to not replay those?

I guess it depends on the person. I’ve never felt afraid that anyone was going to kill me. Nor have I personally met anyone who are afraid of women laughing at them (that I know of). But, you hear this kind of stuff on tv shows and the news media all the time.
