Notice the media slowly building Cam up?

[mwright350]

They're just gearing up for Manziel to get drafted.  It takes time to shift that amount of hate to another player...gotta get out ahead of it!

[jtm]

The media doesn't do Cam any favors, but he didn't help the situation with his post-game interviews and pouting on the sidelines.  Also, doing Superman poses when we are losing by 30 to a team that is playing a bunch of back-ups, was icing on the cake. 

 

Cam brings attention to himself and when you win they media loves you and when you lose they pile on.

Cam has the potential to be the most marketable player in the NFL like Lebron is to NBA. Just imagine when he wins a Superbowl...the media along with the league is probably salivating at the thought

Building him up so they can knock him down as soon as he loses a game and puts a towel on his head. Don't let them fool you. 

[TheRed]

I haven't, but then again I don't pay much attention if at all to the media anymore.

 

In fact, the only time I hear about things is when people flip out and start threads about so and so said this.

Unfortunately I also believe this to be the case.

Something has def been gradually rising as of late... ;)

[pstall]

some want to look smart when the Panthers win more this year and they can be on air and go "remember what I said back in Aug that had the message boards buzzing?".

yeah man remember that time cam did the thing

 

additional top secret information: we never trailed by 30 at any point

[Vagrant]

They know they've been preaching a false narrative about Cam the whole time, and now that they see that he's on the cusp of truly becoming one of the game's elite they're trying to get some ink out before it happens so they can say they "called it" and how much Cam has "changed", when the only thing that has changed has been the fact that they're finally coming to realize that all their false conclusions about his behavior were bullshat from the minute they conjured them.

When did this ever happen???? 

[pantherj]

I've never understood why people cared if he put a towel over his head or not. I mean people were getting really fired up and passionate about his towel wearing, and the national media went wild about it. You would have thought he was a certain former Atlanta Falcons dirt bag QB barbequing dogs. Yes I haven't forgotten about that Ron Mexico.

[TheRed]

I've literally never seen jtm have anything good to say about the guy.

[pantherj]

If I worked my a$$ off and put my life and future health at risk to play football, then you can bet I'm going to celebrate TDs even when losing. That kind of positive emotion and passion has to come out on display.
