Cam and Kaep Will Co-Host Some Cartoon Network Award Show

It's funny how we think as fans that just cause athletes are on a different team, or a rival team that all 53 plays hate each other. In reality, it's not like that at all.

But I still think Kaep is a prick and would take great joy in seeing Greg Hardy come from back stage and choke slam him into the crowd.

^ Yes and no.  You're right to an extent in premise, but if I'm not mistaken, I recall before one of our games against SF that Cam and Kaep hadn't talked since a pre-draft 2011 function so they're by no means buds.  Could be wrong though.

There's only one thing about Colin that bothers me, he is full of poo when it comes to his physical attributes.

NFL.com:

C Kaepernick: 6'4 235lb

Cam Newton: 6'5 245lb

That does not mean anything. 

 

It's not like Cam and Colin were bosom-buddies during college years and now don't speak. They met for the first time during the Combine ad even back then Colin's folks were pitting him against Cam. 

 

I agree with with the poster who said Fans, especially fans on here, need to know when to let go the ghost.

 

But watching the way the media is cherry picking the whole Sherman and Crabtree saga to show how much they hate each other and to keep the negative spot light on Sherman, I would say, fans today are very much conditioned by today's media to automatically believe players hate each other because they play and taunt each other during games.

    • I will as soon as you withdraw your fandom from the Patriots. Informative threads are great but all of these estrogen and emotion driven threads you start are ridiculous.
    • Will be there tonight and expect nothing from the Canes. They are soft and won't go after anyone, nor will they respond when, not if, Florida starts bullying them. Not to mention Freddie is in net. I fear this will be an ass-kicking.  
    • Is this not a bit contradictory?  Also surely if any of us are smart enough to evaluate what we're seeing in real time, a former NFL QB can at least manage the same.  Especially considering he's basing his analysis on hours (maybe generous?) of reviewing All-22 footage which he can play back over and over again, focusing each time on different position groups, match-ups, progressions, etc. which is simply impossible for a fan to fully assess in real time.  Unless you're actually at the game, we basically only get the QB/O-line in frame during the broadcast and even in that limited window of the field, there is simply too much happening.  I'm usually broadly focusing on Bryce, maybe peeping the footwork (or lack thereof) and just the overall pocket and whether there is any pressure coming.  I'm not able to watch every individual one-on-one o-line match-up on top of it to see who got beat, who didn't pick up a blitz, which o-lineman didn't shift to help double-team, or whatever else. I think the truth is somewhere in between (as is almost always the case).  Knowing the play call, audible, etc. is pretty important when judging individual performances, which is why we should always take PFF grades with a grain of salt.  But yeah we can also get a pretty good overall sense of how a player is performing just from watching the game on the couch on Sundays.  I still think there's a lot of value in a review video like this.  As long as you have the bare minimum media literacy to take the interesting insights while also acknowledging inherent biases from a video like this (i.e. obviously focusing on the good over the bad).
