I kind of want to show this video to my mom to get her reaction but I'm sure she's just going to think it's no big deal

watching football with extended family on turkey day is eye opening. Apparently all these guys are "thugs". There are so many things they take issues with that I don't think twice about.

I had to down beer after beer to avoid such convos..   It stems from his "cockiness"  now that there are fewer and fewer things to gripe about. 

 

Mind blowing.   People are so far from self-aware when it comes to what truly sparks these reactions.

Thug is just the censored way of calling someone the "n word" nowadays

Yeah I hear the exact same word bandied about. "He's too cocky"... well he's got every right to be alittle proud. Besides, these people don't understand that Newton is an entertainer. He's the first entertainer this franchise has ever had. Even Steve Smith, with all his drama, wasn't a limelight guy. 

Cam has put in the work, and endured three losing seasons and two playoff heartbreaks. He has improved his game and is having the best season of his NFL career, not to mention his team is undefeated. If that doesn't give someone a reason to dance after his TD celebrations, idk what does.

Not really. I consider white trash to be thugs too. Same goes for biker gangs, Occupy rallies, politicians, MS13, and the like. The term thug implies a lifestyle to me, not a skin color.

I see the word Thug being used more as a generalization personally. Like someone calls a black person Thug because they're really thinking the N word. They call a white person Thug because they're really thinking White Trash. I see people using Thug when they really mean lowlife scum. Thug just seems to be the new norm since they can't call people what they really want.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Its quite literally insanity and its quite literally textbook panthering.  Literally 2 weeks before the season they pull this poo.  It absolutely helps no one but Moton.   fug morgan fug tepper and fug tillis.  This is a horrendous move no matter how you sell it.  But but but culture, but but but it sets a precedent, but but but he deserves it, but but but it frees up cap space.   It was a stupid fuging move.

      fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally
