Whats the deal with Cam charging for Autographs today?

Recommended Posts

Back on topic: apparently Eli manning is doing a private autograph signing next week, and is charging $600 for a pair of autographed cleats (among other things) with no mention of proceeds going to charity. This is a guy who signed a 100 million dollar contract, making much more than cam. Why aren't there articles ripping him for his greed?

I don't understand all the criticism. It doesn't make Cam a bad guy. Hell, i'm going Saturday to get a 16x20 signed and i'm happy to get to shake his hand, wish him luck this season, and frame the photo for my man cave. I've loved collecting autographs of Panther players since I was a kid and i'm 22 now. There are some of us that are older and still have good intentions when it comes to getting autographs. It's gonna look great next to my smitty and beason photos.

Blame your UNC alum hero Scott Fowler for starting the fire....

I

Not a Scott Fowler fan and I've stated that it bugs me a little that the trolls story has been getting some looks nationally.

He's a big reason the observer is what it is.

Fowler comes across as a nice guy with character and integrity, but I think deep down he's a weasel looking to stir the pot.

I know one thing, if I'm Cam Newton and this kind of small town mentality bullsh*t keeps up, I'm getting the hell out of Charlotte when my contract is up. The stuff people sweat in this town is frigging unbelievable. Enjoy Cam while he is here folks, because this town is going to turn the screws on small things like this until he has enough and bolts. I won't blame him one bit.

I'll say it again..............don't charge for your autograph.

he should fire his entire PR staff and just hire you

there are a lot of dipshits in this fanbase whose ideal quarterback fits neatly in the jake/matt moore "aw shucks i just want to help the team" archetype regardless of what they actually do in a game situation. i guarantee we'd still be rolling out jake delhomme in a wheelchair if these people were in charge. either that or we'd have hitched our wagon to another small school late rounder/undrafted scrub who plays with "grit" and "moxie" while going 10/24 for 120 yards and three picks.

a guy like cam newton who, as far as anyone knows, does things and behaves in a way quite similar to other star quarterbacks doesn't fit that mold and as such we have an entire legion of people with a built-in distrust and/or dislike of anything he does. he can't take a poo without someone calling him "selfish" or making some other such inane charge. read the comments on the original disturber article-just loads of dumbasses whining about this or that.

Cam Newton a Dallas Cowboy in 2016 because Charlotte sucks as a sports town. He will never catch a break in this town. He will either catch it from crybaby Panther fans or the droves of opposing fans that live in this city and hate the home team.

    • Top 2026 Roster Needs & Priorities: EDGE/Outside Linebacker (OLB): Improving the pass rush is the top priority, as the team ranked in the bottom tier for sacks, with D.J. Wonnum heading to free agency. Inside Linebacker:  With Wallace disappointing and Rozeboom possibly on the way out, the Panthers ILBs have been rated in the low 50s on PFF.  They need a quality man in the middle.  Defensive Line (Interior): Support for Derrick Brown is needed to improve interior pass rush, with needs for more consistent production beyond A'Shawn Robinson and a recovering Nick Wharton. Offensive Line (LT/C): The team needs a potential starter at left tackle and a long-term solution at center, with Cade Mays and others facing free agency. Wide Receiver: Adding explosive weapons to complement the passing game is a priority. Safety: Upgrading the secondary with better coverage skills to support Tre'von Moehrig and Lathan Ransom.  Considering that you can afford one to three free agents, and considering that you can reasonably expect 2-3 draft picks to contribute immediately, how would you attack the roster needs?  (Lets see how this goes--)      
    • Correct but it also won't include special teams
    • From Hurney 2.0 through Morgan has been an OL drafting fiasco. Morgan’s first draft alone saw us take Legette/Brooks instead with Zack Frazier just waiting but he kind of learned under Fitterer when we took TMJ over Humphrey and later in that draft took a long snapper over Trey Smith. For good knows why, we’ve been taking risky bad value day 2 picks when IOL and LB picks on day 2 are great value picks because the top prospects at those positions don’t usually go day 1.
