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.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
