Why would Cam write a letter to someone that punched him twice in the face?

I mean they're dudes. I know plenty of dudes who have come to blows but are still the best of friends.

I'm not saying they're the best of friends, but I'm sure there's some mutual respect between the the two.

Game recognizes game and all that.

I see the claims of inside sources but after years of seeing this you will have to forgive me if I'm a bit skeptical ya know lol.

you should be skeptical. but so is everyone in this thread. no one is being gullible. the entire thing is everyone collectively weighing the evidence. you should re-read the thread

Beyond the source issue, I'm not putting it past Steve to do something like this. I'm sure things got heated between them a few times over things. But from my own perspective, I have doubts if actual punches were thrown to the face, and landed, that Newton would go out of his way to personally pen a letter to the man. I know the argument is "brothers fight all the time, and make up again!!!", but that's a bit of a cliche trope.

Overall regardless, 89 has a spotty legacy here.

But if I'm being honest, it's a pretty sad indictment on our fanbase that fans here are practically giddy at the thought of our franchise QB getting decked if it means painting Steve Smith in a bad light since he is now one of the most disliked Panthers in history conveniently after he stops scoring touchdowns for the same fickle people to scream and cheer for.

It absolutely isn't a cliché. Guys fight and get over the poo. That's how guys are. 

And oh look red is back to bashing the fan base again... I agree with you most of the time when you do it but not this time. If Steve did it, the fans are right for the way they're responding. And since he has a history of doing it, it's far more believable

He was painted in a bad light a long time ago.

I knew sooner or later he was going to start his crap. As soon as I read the thread title when it was first posted, I was like "I know who is going to be a pain in here".

Yeah, I was wondering about that.

I've read the whole thread, and my first question reading that was "Who's giddy?"

Other than a few pissed off "how dare you question Steve" ranters, the responses have been pretty measured.

Did Ken Lucas getting sucker punched stop any of you guys from cheering when Steve Smith was spinning footballs on the ground, and angrily getting in opposing players faces week in and week out? Don't even embarrass yourself, and try to say no.

Oh, @uncfan888 @KillerKat, we do have an awful fanbase. Not quite the Browns, but we have some of the most fickle people I've ever encountered posting here. I'm sorry if that truth hurts, but it's the truth nonetheless. Even longtime posters like OP have participated in the trashing of guys like Olsen and TD throughout the last week. What's ironic is the same posters are bizarrely unaware that in doing so they look like complete jack asses for posturing about players getting assaulted as if they actually give a damn.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.

      I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.

      As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
