Look, as I said, Cam's not my kinda guy. I prefer people who place the game above their personal gratification
I think Cam rather obviously does this fwiw, as I've stated the reasons previously.

Gotcha bitch.

Cam has fun. Old white people (and it is literally just old white people who don't like Cam) don't like anyone having fun while they play sports, because sports are sooper serious, you guise. Nobody's allowed to smile, or heaven forbid they celebrate and take pride in their work. Won't someone think of the children??

Serena is a count and fake. Everyone knows it who has seen her through the years. I like cam the guy has always been like that and love the way he plays and leads his team. Don't get the hate for him

Cuz he and his dad are POS and he wouldn't have been eligible if the NCAA had not sold their soul to the devil?

This I guess. I hate him when they play the Saints, but otherwise? The little Superman thing is pretty mild. He runs to give the ball to a kid after each score so that negates it. Its a nice touch.

He tends to take to many shots. Those will add up. You don't want your franchise QB to have a franchise RB shelf life.

But really thats all I got. His sketchy recruitment bullshite was a lifetime ago in football terms.

The "hey look at me" attitude is pretty aggravating. It can't be because he's black because I feel the same way about JJ Watt.

Next I would say is because he was a piece of shite throughout college. First with Florida and stealing, then getting pimped out to Auburn for cash, not getting caught, and winning a championship. That makes him a bad person to me, and I don't like when good things happen to bad people. He was also on the same team as Nick Fairley who is a giant piece of shite.

So basically that is why I don't like him.

Just had to throw race in it huh?

I guarantee you wouldn't have said the same thing about manning or Brady.
It's only when someone is black that people mention race as a negative reason why someone dislikes them.
What's the obsession?

To answer your question its prob bc he's an attention whore.
But he appears to be enjoying what he dowse for a living.
Only reason I dislike him is bc of that retarded loooking sock hat he chose to wear last week.

I don't hate Cam Newton. I dislike the Panthers because of being a Saints fan. I wish he would grow up a little bit and quit with all the excessive celebration. It's okay to celebrate and have fun. But he takes it to the extreme. I appreciate his greatness as an athlete though.

The one player I truly hated on the Panthers team was Steve Smith. And that's because 1.) the Saints could never stop him and 2.) he was even more of a jackass than Cam can be.

I hated Cam when he was at Auburn and have been pretty indifferent about him as a pro. But man is he fun to watch.

I'm a big Saints fan and I don't hate Cam at all. He's antagonizing at times with his celebrations, but I've seen where he's a good man in the community and he's just having fun. I don't hate Cam at all...I actually kind of like him.

But I'm 100% hating him when he plays the Saints.

For many. The others are just miserable fricks.

I don't get all the hate either. He fricked up back at Florida and since then has kept his antics on the field.
He's not smoking weed, hurting women, showing up to meetings drunk, getting stabbed by his wife, getting shot by his mistress, killing people, stabbing people, sending dick pics to Jen, taking P.E.D's, or having 8 kids with 7 different women.
He's taken his team to the Super Bowl with Ted Ginn as his number one WR and Jonathan Stewart as his number one RB.
Gonna be a great matchup against the Broncos. The Broncos Defense will slow Newton down, but the Panthers Defense is gonna makeup the difference.

If we made a list of our worst trangressions from 18-22, good luck finding anyone who is worthy of being deemed a good person since you're saying people can't change from the time they're 18 to the time they actually grow up and live life a little.

Because he went to Auburn and screw Auburn forever. (Also, we have lots of Saints fans on here, and they also hate the Panthers... not as much as the Falcons, but still). Cam has only played for teams that people on this board are most likely to hate.

This isn't hard.

I think and hope he matures. Part of him seems like a great person- the immature cocky part turns people off

Seems like its mostly people with sticks up their arse and "get off my lawn" old guys that don't like him.


Funny how his dancing is a problem, but its okay for other players to do it. Weird.
