Cam says he didn't intend for his comments to be a race thing

[h2o_proof]

Some of y'all may disagree, but Cam should have never made the first statement. I swear these guys need better PR, not PR people that want to put a rainbow on everything, but PR people that can adapt to your personality and teach you how to play chess.

This is a business, and Cam's first statement was more about 'feelings' when it should have been 100% strategic. His actions over the course of his career leading to this point have progressed the discussion about race in sports than his words can at this point. Where discussions about race, athletic dominance and the coveted QB position are concerned, Cam may be 'well-spoken', however he's not yet mature enough to fully 'articulate' a stance, there's a difference. Also as he gets older, he'll realize that black QBs are not a monolith and are as diverse a group of individuals as white QBs.

All he had to do was [with a level of fake modesty] compare himself to his 'buddy' Tebow, with the mobility and TD celebrations and how Denver did a good job utilizing him () and completely flip the script on them cats. Create dichotomy, let the talking heads do the dirty work and I swear we end up in the same discussion about race and sports and the QB position and how important Cam's season has been.

I can see why he backtracked off his initial statement. Wont hold it against him and say he backed down or nothing like that. Just gotta know how to play your cards in situations like this.

If you are looking for a black male athlete that speaks as unapologetically about white supremacy as Muhammad Ali, you will be searching forever. That's one of the reasons I always have and always will Brother Muhammad Ali.

Anything to defend your hero, huh? Scam's initial comments we're specifically about race and being a black QB, he's backpedalling off those comments b/c he got heat. But I don't expect you or other Panthers fans to ever hold Scam accountable for the shyt he says or does so whatever

damn breh where you been.... you've been on hiatus huh?? Nice to see you back on your anti Cam-Rhetoric..... anyway its whatever. I applauded the man for touching on the race issue, the fact that he changed it up isnt surprising at all. Like my breh @Henry Orbit stated earlier Richardson or Panthers PR prolly got at him. It is what it is, not the end of the world.

Watch a reporter bring this up on media day

Y'all gotta remember Richardson also told him no tattoos and no piercings either. Richardson will put up with a tap dance, a dab and a after a first down, but he's an old Southern white man. He's not touching on race or letting his QB get caught up in the media's game

A goon been here, I been letting the new Panther fans parlay wit y'all for a min before I got in here

I agree with you tho, I think this is a non story. It's Super Bowl week, tomorrow we'll be onto something else

That wasn't backpeddling

 

[Truth Hurts]

Of course it wasn't, it's Cam Newton we are talking about here, no matter what he does is a "chess move"

Yeah, I never got all that, especially when he loves Steve Smith to the point where Smitty still calls him a father figure
