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.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
