So tired of listening to fictional stories about Cam Newton on sports talk radio in Charlotte. People just don't want to know the truth.9:28am - 28 Dec 12

The media and the radio shows in Charlotte are pathetic, disgraceful. And people who listen to them and actually believe what they say, are gullible.

Fear + Paranoia + low self worth + never having won anything + almost 0 experience dealing with "stars" + "Appalachian mentality" = Charlotte media, radio, and "fans" coping and reacting to a Cam Newton

I'm not a blind homer Cam defender, but I've never seen an athlete as misunderstood and misrepresented as Cam is. A lot of that is perception, because we as fans of the Panthers, see the other side that the mainstream does not. But still, how can you watch that video of Cam mic'ed up at the Raiders and then call him a thug? He is very respectful to fans and refs, and he is very supportive of his teammates.
His personality is way closer to The Golden Calf of Bristol than the Jay Cutler meets Jamarcus Russel meets satan persona that the media has created for him.

Btw, Zod is guilty of it as well.

So I've worked a lot of bar/restaurant jobs in Atlanta through an entertainment company I used to work for, and I've met a poo ton of people in the bar/club industry. I've heard a lot of stories.

I know people that saw Ray Lewis kill that guy. I know Eugene Robinson was trying to pick up a tranny the night he grabbed a UC. I know the zifty guy that delivers Matt Ryan all his meals from the restaurant on the bottom floor of his luxury condo complex. I'm basically the guy from this Steely Dan song.

Cam Newton does not drink, at least not in public. He never stays anywhere past one. He's been dating the same girl for years. He's goofy as hell and is really only comfortable on a football field. He's smart, well spoken, and tips well.

im in the atlanta area a lot, and just talking to the people down here and they love the guy.when will the carolina's embrace him?

[Cary Kollins]

It'll all work itself out in the end. 10 years from now Cam will be regarded as one of the GOAT and we will barely remember these no-name sports media guys that hated on him for his first few seasons.

Pro Football talk said Cam was fined for shoving the referee????

Oh, don't act like you speculate without posting facts/sources.

I'll just leave this here......

Good decision. Enjoy the salty, musky, yet somehow pleasant aroma.

Lol, and you want intelligent conversation on this board. Great post sir!

[Ivan The Awesome]

Who is saying what? As far as I can tell the national media is the one hating on Cam a lot. The Charlotte Observer published the hello kitty image, other than that, who is saying anything?

[Keith Moons Liver]

I don't really consider him legitimate media though, he is really just trying to get users on his website.
