LOL I wish someone would've proofread his "apology."

I don't think it's sincere at all, but at the end of the day he is still a kid.

Hopefully he learns his lesson.

Sincere? No idea. A lot of 'apologies' these days boil down to "sorry I got caught" or "sorry I got a negative reaction".

Would say though that if he did come to an understanding of how this video makes him look bad, that tells me at least he's not a complete idiot.

The public apology is just for more attention seeking. A sincere apology would be done in person or the very least over the phone. Typing up some poo means nothing and isn't genuine. Hes just trying to get people  to know his name. Lil brat

I'm not sure he's sincere, but to be fair it's not like he can just go over and knock on Cam Newton's door or call him up.

I saw that, too. 

It sounded like one of my posts, where I get stuck in between two ways of wording something and what comes out sounds like it is written in Klingon or an incoherent version of Yoda.

One casualty of the latest forum upgrade appears to be a limited time to edit such murdering of the King's English.  Now, my gaffes can live forever. 

Not to mention, "first and for most".

Proofreader probably would have been a good idea.

he's a young underprivileged kid at a football camp. were people expecting a harvard application essay? 

the fact it was written on a notes app and probably had general guidance from a coach but not edited by anyone suggests the kid sincerely feels like an asshole and wants to make it right. people who probably did far dumber poo at that age are being awfully cynical about this

Because he was never ignored in the first place.

Cam should have and this would not have gotten any air time.  Generally Cam is very good with this type of thing and Cam Newton doesn't have to answer to anyone, especially some kid.  His career and pocket book speaks for itself.

Sorry bro, I live in the school district where this kid plays football and trust me he isn't underprivileged.  The school he goes to is also one of the best high schools in Pennsylvania.

I am not saying that he isn't being sincere though.

Also, he won't be an NFL player.  He's a good player on a small high school team.

Honestly, this might have been the best thing for Cam. When the kids you are empowering tell you you arent great, a free agent. That stings more than a team cutting you.

Unfortunately the disrespect the kid showed Cam won't fix that shoulder.

Ron and Marty owe Cam an apology for the atrocious offensive lines they put in front of him during most of, if not all, his career here.

oh i thought this was a charity thing.

well, comment still stands - kid seems sincere to me - worth giving him the benefit of the doubt.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
