Cam Newton chooses not to talk to Pete King...Is King a snatch?

[tiger7_88]

Second individual that hasn't taken to kindly to Cam at training camp. What do you guys think?

There isn't enough hours in the day for Cam to talk to everyone who wants to talk to him.

Those who he does talk to are likely those who were fair to him in the previous 6-7 months.

Pete King is not one of those people.

someone pleeeeeeeeease send this to king through twitter.

I like King as well, but I will lose some respect for him if he turns this around in MMQB and bashes Cam and mocks him with the phrase "icon and entertainer".

I'm sure he most certainly will!

Peter King is horrible. He's about as accurate as a meteorologist. It's always a 50\50 chance for sunshine.

Of all the selfish things Cam has done, I don't blame him one iota for this. In fact, my respect for the young man just went up x 10.

****** is entirely too awesome, both in movie and pink innards form, for King to be associated with it.

Can we say that he's being a Saint J about it instead?

Cam catering to the fans and highlight reeling past the media makes my heart sing for joy.

I like King and enjoy his writing. Any reporter in the world interviewing Cam would have ran with that "entertainer and icon" remark.

I think that Cam is turning down so many interviews is that he doesn't want to get distracted or give the perception that he's a media attention *****. He wants to fit in with his teammates and not do anything that would make him stick out in a negative fashion.

I never really cared about King one way or the other, and certainly don't care whether Cam chooses not to talk to him "post-evening practice". I'm not sure why King feels he's entitled to spot interviews with Cam, but apparently he does. Seems like a petty, self-important and ego driven move on King's part to tweet something like that (I'm assuming that was a tweet?).

In summary... In the words of Happy Gilmore, "Who gives a sh*t?"

Michael Jordan refuses to EVER do interviews with Sports Illustrated since that baseball writer trashed him during his stint in the minors when he was playing baseball... Didn't hurt him much. Actually, the writer lost his job, lol.

Cam on the way to becoming monstrous

IMO when it comes to some of these journalists if you have a preconceived bias against Newton or any other player for that matter anything he gives you can be spun to make him look like an asshole, and it has in Cam's case. Between "fake smiles", having quotes of his being taken out of context, being reported to look like he "owns the place", and what probably will be written by King as some poo crocodile tears "a cocky rookie snubbed me" piece tomorrow, these parasitic journalists looking to get more hits for their news column are running the gamut of offense to try to assassinate his character before he even plays a down in the NFL.

I'm sure King will mention something about it today, but you'll have to wade through do much stuff about baseball and which barrista didn't put enough foam on his triple hazelnut latte, you'll struggle to find it.

That's called "*** for Tat" or "You'll need me before I'll need you" ;)
