Welp, the internet never forgets as they dug up some old tweets of the reporter Cam was sexist towards, including a tweet where she straight up uses the n-word.
The internet is weird, lmao. Like, the reporter is straight trash for that but the f*** does that have to do with Cam being a dickhead at a press conference? What a mess this whole thing has turned into.

It was a dumb, ignorant, and sexist comment and Cam Newton should absolutely be admonished for it. But I also think the outrage over the comment is waaaaaaaay out of proportion.

I guess the narrative that's going to be pushed from that is how can she throw stones at Cam when she did this in her past but at the end of the day are these same people holding Cam responsible for what he said Also if you are going to be a person in the public, delete all your social media and start brand new

Is the reporter white, and did she use hard -er ending for the n-word or was she trying to be hood and used the -a ending? But yeah, I doubt Cam knew about an old tweet using the n-word when he decided to be sexist. They don't cancel each other out. It's two people f***ing up.

I don't want to play "guess the race" but she's definitely non-black. The actual content of the tweet was calling Dale Earnheart Jr. a "bitch *****" with the -a ending.

Apparently she was retweeting (this was before auto RTS we have now) something with that statement. Not condoning it, but she wasn't throwing it around like a common part of her vocabulary it seems. Plus she owned up and apologized. Cam still hasn't figured that part out yet by the Panthers own admission.

So a long time ago she repeated someone else's words calling a white guy a racial slur for black men, then later owned up to it and acknowledged that even that was wrong? Yeah, these two things are in no way similar.

I think in short order there will be a released statement from the Panthers as they've tried to damage control it but yea I think the "overreaction" is more because the issue of Cam having an attitude or not coming across well has been an issue since he came into the league

I know I'm late to the party on this, but considering the way Cam Newton acted like the Dead Sea - because he was so full of salt, get it - after Super Bowl 50, I'm not surprised at this latest revelation that he's kind of a dick.

So Cam Newton is an idiot? Yeah, I knew that coming in. Can we all just cut the shit and be honest that these things are "controversies" in that ESPN needs shit to talk about every day and something like this works? I don't get why everything has to be parroted, like whatever it is they talk about every day is actually news. MOST of it isn't. Sexist? Yeah, sure. But if you don't think a lot of these guys say worse shit, you're being naive. How many flat earthers are there in the league? They're not all dumb jocks, but there is a portion of these guys who are far from rocket scientists. It's not news when one of those guys says something dumb. The idea that this is any more than a blurb (and it has turned into a full on saga) is laughable. ESPN needs controversy, so they paint any little thing as that. Kinda like if you needed a pumpkin to carve, but didn't have one so you cut a little face into a bag of pumpkin seeds and said it was the same thing. And these idiots just buy into it and get it to trend on Twitter. I wanna say the audience is too smart for their shit, but in my honest opinion at this point, ESPN's audience is dumber than Cam Newton and deserves this 2nd rate channel.

The same media that makes you will break you There's no secret if you give ESPN an inch they will take a mile but at this point the story is sort of dead with the Cam apology Now it's back to following whatever stupid thing Lavar Ball says

The Las Vegas Review Journal reports Derek Carr (questionable, back) is "campaigning to play" this week.

The whole Cam Newton thing seems like we're a nation of people just dying to find a reason to finger point at people for being not as politically correct as the rest of us. What he said was kind of douchey, wasn't really PC but on the scale of things worthy of being offended by it was way down the list.
I think Cam is a tool, he looks like a whining baby when he loses, a braggard when he's winning. A true annoying front runner. But this seems so tame and worthy of brushing off I have a difficult time trying to condemn him.

After a rough outing last night, people are still questioning what's going on with Tom Brady and the Patriots. However, people forget.... {Spoiler} Tom is on the List.......the List of Jericho.
