Candace Gregory and her husband, Danmon, were taking an after-dinner stroll around the Inner Harbor of Baltimore on Wednesday night when they saw an unexpected gesture of generosity.

More unexpected was the person making the gesture.

It was Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton, in town for the preseason opener against the Ravens the following night.
quote:

Newton and a group of teammates were leaving dinner at Sullivan’s. The NFL MVP was carrying two bags of food that Candace later realized contained a full meal, not leftovers.

As they rounded the corner, Candace and Danmon -- in town for business -- watched as Newton gave one of the bags to a man sitting beside a bus stop with a sign that said, “Homeless Please help hungry -- food."
quote:

People talk about him dabbing and all the stuff that in my mind ultimately should be irrelevant, because that doesn’t get to the heart of who he is," Candace said of Newton.

“I once saw him give something to a disabled child at a practice and people were like, ‘Oh, it’s a photo opportunity.’ But this was when nobody was looking. That’s why we shared it, because character is what you do when nobody is looking."
Good stuff

Cam does do some nice PR things and is great with children. I respect that.. I still don't care for how he conducts himself on the field at times.. but I certainly don't hate him for it.

People get annoyed with him because how he is all in everyone's face taunting them when winning, and going up into a shell when losing.

People don't like extremes, he is polar opposites in the circumstances on the field

Most polarizing figure in sports for sure...managed to piss off blacks and whites in a calendar year. Give him credit, he truly doesn't give a flying frick about what anyone thinks. Cam is definitely just gonna be Cam.

He could literally cure cancer and people would still hate him.

My wife's cousin works in a restaurant in downtown Charlotte near Cam's condo. He says Cam comes in, orders, eats and never pays. Doesn't tip. No one ever says anything about it. I wonder if Cam even paid for this meal?

He probably stole it and then left a giant, unflushed shite in the restroom too.

And apparently, outside of the game at least, Cam is a pretty good person.

Wasting a steak meal on two people when that kind of money could feed 20 homeless a good meal.
