In all honesty, I would like to know what's with the racial undertones to how Cam and RG III are being treated by the media? Cam is intentionally being painted by a predominate amount of white writers and reporters in the sports media as the next VY, complete with immaturity issues, and lacking in intelligent. Where is such obvious racism stems from? I guess the ESPN spun Pay-for-Play and Cam automatically being that culprit in a computer thief during his freshman year at UF.

How are folks like Peter King defending their argument against Cam, by taking every ish he does and putting a negative spin on it and labeling it as "concerns" or Cam's "immaturity issues." Got to make their boy Nolan's vicious character attack of Cam be proven right. Nevermind when QBs like Luck, Matthew and Blaine, show any kind of emotions it's rewarded with them showing "good leadership skills." Nevermind there is usually more to the story surround the incident with Cam. But who care, it's Cam and it's the sports folks job like Peter King to show Cam who's boss.

On the other extreme of the racial pendulum is RG III. The media going out of their way to praise him, you know as so "smart" and because he's raised by a "military" parents," projected as well mannered. You know, clearly being portrayed as the Anti-Cam on every level. BTW, does anyone know Luck's college GPA or much about parents? Not really...But the media has gone out of their way to give RG III the McNabb treatment, while Cam gets the VY treatment.

And like Cam, the RG got his share of racial jabs about his " QB skills" and whether the fans really want him over the more acceptable white QB. Skip Bayless, in August, wondered outloud if the "white" Redskins fans would prefer Cousins over RG III because RG is "colored." Yes, we're still having such discussions in this time and age. Then you had Rob Peter wondering outloud last week, if RG III was a "cornball." I guess that's another words for a black guy who feels he's white because he has a white girlfriend. I don't know. But amazing that Rob got suspend by ESPN but the forever race baiting Skip didn't get as much as a slap on his hand. I guess if you pose the so called "concerns" about Cam and RG III in a form of a question, it makes it okay to play the race card and get away with it. Amazing!!! I guess that is why something like..."Why is Cam sitting there with a towel on his head?" Then gets turned into Cam having immaturity issues and his every action monitored like he's some run away "thug."

I thought this was the 21 Century. I wish folks would stop acting like racism does not exist in the NFL when they go out of their way to keep it alive in a the form of silly "concerns" and "questions." It's people like Peter King, and Skip Bayless who feed the silly race baiting and amazingly enough, get away with it. They are either justified when they go to far or rewarded for their behavior while folks, like some on here, just copy them with their own irrespnsible behavior.

What exactly did Cam do today that makes him a "thug" or "immature?" He acted like a human being and showed some emotion like all the other QBs when they get frustrated, so what. At least he did the manly thing and apologizes to the Ref for over-reacting. Still waiting for Peter King to apologize to Cam for throwing him under the bus during the draft so he could become part of a story.

I would've been pissed if I was Cam, too. poo, look at the play again. He's being drove to the ground late, at the same time downfield, LaFell is on the ground. That's how late it was. On top of that, the game was becoming chippy, the offensive line sucked, and the refs were fuging terrible.

You're telling me any player wouldn't have exploded? Hell, Cam did good not to shove the ref off of him.

Look Cam is no angel. He does a lot of questionable things. The only thing you can argue is that he's never given the benefit of the doubt. Whenever he screws up it's a big story, whenever he does community work it barely makes local news.

Agreed. That is what pisses me off, he gets no credit for what he does in the community.

You do realize the reason he posts things like that in the first place is to solicite this kind of reaction?

speaking of king...

steve mariucci just seemed to get kind of pissed off on NFL network because it was mentioned on the air that his "close friend" (or so he says) peter king had reported a rumor from an "inside source" that he was interested in the chargers job. mariucci make it very clear that norv turner was a friend of his and he wouldn't talk about that when the position was still filled.

peter king: confirmed douche

NFL Network just call Peter King out for saying on NBC FootballTonight that Steve Meriucchi was in line for Norv Turner's job in San Diego. Steve said that Peter King is a friend of his and that he hasn't talk to him about a coaching job. He also said that he would never comment on a job where the coach was still in play plus him and Norv Turner are friends and he would never comment on his job. Deion said what kind of friend is Peter King for lying on Steve Meriucchi. They also commented on Greg Hardy's hit and Deion said what was wrong with that hit plus they also commented on the Raider player comment about hurting Cam but they didn't elaborate on that.
