I'd love to hear some of y'all's thoughts on what went down with Cam Newton and the reporter he offended. http://www.businessinsider.com/cam-newton-female-reporter-routes-question-funny-to-hear-2017-10 Personally, After watching the footage of the presser, I'm sad this thing took off in the direction it did, and that a sponsor actually canned him for it. Have they never met the guy they're paying to advertise for them? If you have even HEARD of this guy before, you'd know his entire career he's been a light-hearted, casual, candid guy. How many of you here would be shocked to have a young lady ask you about football details in a way that demanded a knowledgeable answer? I know a few women who actually pay attention to football enough to have an educated conversation (lucky-for-me, my wife is one!), but they are very few & far between. The dude was light-hearted in his response... making a casual observation, then going on to answer the question in detail & without any kind of sarcasm towards the reporter. If he said, "Oh sweetie, you wouldn't understand the intricacies of route-running like a man would..." That would be different. IMO, this is the kind of mob-mentality response that will force ALL football players to turn into coach-speaking robots for fear of offending someone, anyone. Thanks America.
