http://www.change.org/petitions/nfl-the-magazine-editorial-staff-remove-tim-The Golden Calf of Bristol-from-the-cover-of-the-nfl-the-magazine-inaugural-issue

I've already contacted Kevin LaForce (the VP in charge of the mag) and Roger Goodell through email, and LaForce is supposed to return my phone call later today. Be courteous, but insistent.

The petition doesn't mention Cam because getting rid of The Golden Calf of Bristol will be impetus enough to put Cam back on it, hopefully.

I care about this greatly because I ordered a two-year subscription based on receiving a collectors' edition of the inaugural issue with Cam on the cover, and this bait-and-switch infuriated me.

Please stop.

Look, we have a player who we hope will develop into a franchise star, one of those guys we can always look to other teams and say "Cam Newton was a Panther," much like our own Steve Smith. He's already getting dogged by people wanting to gift Dalton the RoTY, posters up here who would rather have the backup QB from Miami, and a media ready to prop The Golden Calf of Bristol up one day just so they can blow him up the next.

Cam will be in this league years after The Golden Calf of Bristol is off building orphanages in the third world and maybe one day getting laid. The Golden Calf of Bristol's a great person, terrible QB, and this honor was given to Cam before being unceremoniously taken away to someone who isn't even the best player on his own team, or the most responsible for their current win streak.

If they put Von Miller instead of Cam on the cover I would have had far less of a problem, but The Golden Calf of Bristol deserves nothing more than five million reps with a hanging tire and a football.

      I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.

      From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"

      Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
