So tired of listening to fictional stories about Cam Newton on sports talk radio in Charlotte. People just don't want to know the truth.9:28am - 28 Dec 12

The media and the radio shows in Charlotte are pathetic, disgraceful. And people who listen to them and actually believe what they say, are gullible.

Fear + Paranoia + low self worth + never having won anything + almost 0 experience dealing with "stars" + "Appalachian mentality" = Charlotte media, radio, and "fans" coping and reacting to a Cam Newton

I'm not a blind homer Cam defender, but I've never seen an athlete as misunderstood and misrepresented as Cam is. A lot of that is perception, because we as fans of the Panthers, see the other side that the mainstream does not. But still, how can you watch that video of Cam mic'ed up at the Raiders and then call him a thug? He is very respectful to fans and refs, and he is very supportive of his teammates.

His personality is way closer to The Golden Calf of Bristol than the Jay Cutler meets Jamarcus Russel meets satan persona that the media has created for him.

So I've worked a lot of bar/restaurant jobs in Atlanta through an entertainment company I used to work for, and I've met a poo ton of people in the bar/club industry. I've heard a lot of stories.

I know people that saw Ray Lewis kill that guy. I know Eugene Robinson was trying to pick up a tranny the night he grabbed a UC. I know the zifty guy that delivers Matt Ryan all his meals from the restaurant on the bottom floor of his luxury condo complex. I'm basically the guy from this Steely Dan song.

Cam Newton does not drink, at least not in public. He never stays anywhere past one. He's been dating the same girl for years. He's goofy as hell and is really only comfortable on a football field. He's smart, well spoken, and tips well.

      Joe Person: Panthers really like Mason Graham and Jalon Walker

      I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.

      Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.

      Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
