Here's my problem with Cam Newton, especially after the game...and this goes beyond realizing how much of a racist he is after seeing that interview he did pre-game.

When they are winning, he's out there dancing and mugging for the cameras and showing up for his post game pressers in all these garish outfits and telling everyone how good he is. And that is all well and good, because for the most part, he backed it up. But, and that's a big but, if you are going to be that guy, then when you lose, you have to take losing like a man. When many people perceive you as an ungracious winner who likes to gloat and rub his opponents faces in it, then you must be able to stand there and take losing like a man, not a sulking, petulant little boy. The only thing worse than a poor winner is a sore loser, and Cam has pulled off both. The whole season, he kept telling everyone that if you don't like seeing him dance and show off when he scores, then keep him out of the end zone. Well, that's exactly what the Denver defense did, and instead of taking it like a man, he decided to be a little baby.

With all of what transpired yesterday and with all the racist overtones surrounding him, I have absolutely ZERO respect for Cam Newton.

Yep.

I said almost the exact same thing to a friend.

Cam pouting, acting like a petulant child, and walking out of the press conference really proved that us white devils were just being racist when we thought he was a unsportsmanlike, showboating, punk ass bitch.

I really hoped this guy was going to be different and rise above the racial bullshit and just be a super star for everyone to admire... Very disappointed in his antics... Oh and Fuck Beyonce'..

Found the exact quote that I paraphrased from the interview he did:

"I'm an African-American quarterback. That may scare a lot of people because they haven't seen nothing that they can compare me to.''

Found the exact quote that I paraphrased from the interview he did:

Cam Newton in 2013

"I don't think race ... hinders anybody at this position,'' Newton said. "Opportunities are opportunities, whether you are African-American, Chinese, Japanese, Caucasian, what have you. If you've got skill to play the game of football, you're going to play, no matter what your race.''

And by the way, Cam, you're 28 years late being a trend setter. Williams beat the Broncos, you didn't.
