That was either a smaller replica football, or just a weird lens angle.

Jesus, dude, you're doing this right now? You actually looked up his hand size?

Maybe you're a bit in too deep with this stuff.

I was fed a bit of his where he was reacting to someone talking about Romo predicting plays on the live broadcast. This was pretty much his response. This is football 101 for a NFL QB and really nothing special. Went over what Romo saw when he predicted the play and that any good NFL QB should be able to do the same.

Would be kinda interesting if he was coming in to replace RG3 as an analyst/part time commentator but first take? Yuck

Yesterday the theme for the 2025 Met gala was introduced, something about Black Men as style setters with an accompanying Met exhibit. Now ESPN adds a man infamous for his costume choices.
They aren’t though. Clownish black men try to copy the wardrobe they see them wear, normal people go on living their lives. The media thinks because they say something, it’s true.

Right? It took like 6 seconds to look up the information we all know existed. Sorry using facts has ruined your day like it did.

I never liked cam but his podcast isn’t bad. He’s very knowledgeable about football. Hopefully he is himself on the show if he is he will be alright

Cam Newton having football knowledge is not something he should get credit for, unless you mean it in a completely back handed way..."although he's a racist piece of shite that dresses like a fig and is the exact opposite of what you'd want out of the leader of your franchise in literally every aspect of what it takes to be a good human, he does have a decent amount of football knowledge."


It was 14 years ago bro, time to let it go.

I know I’m going against the grain of the MSB, but I thoroughly enjoy Cams podcast. I don’t blame ESPN for going after guys like Pat McAfee and Cam.

But their independence is what makes them special. ESPN is corporate as frick, with rich idiots who don’t understand the average fan, or just don’t care.
YouTube is a bigger and better source than ESPN at this point. They have to hire YouTube independents because those guys are getting more views than the crap ESPN puts out. That’s what you get for being the CNN of sports.

So they fired Sherman and hired Newton.

Ok, Not the choice I would have made, but maybe it will work out.
