The Joy of Cam Newton...
quote:
CAM NEWTON IS enjoying this NFL season in a way that makes some people proud and others lose their minds. He is nearly a caricature of happiness, smiling when we have been conditioned to expect aggression, laughing when we expect seriousness.
The default response to success in a game of rage and combat is belligerence: an angry pose or a violent firing of the ball into the turf. And yet here is the rarest of men: one who can throw his body into a snarling pile of large humans -- all gunning for him with malicious intent -- and emerge on the other side with a radioactive grin and a first down.

The next year, Robert Griffin III had a DJ playing music -- some of it sung by RG III himself -- at his Baylor pro day. Imagine for a moment if Cam Newton, fresh off his national championship/Heisman Trophy season but hounded by those associating him with a lack of desire, maturity and leadership qualities, had shown up at his pro day with a DJ. He might be playing in Canada.
fricking troof.

It really is amazing the 180 so many people are doing on Cam. The fact that anyone would think Blaine Gabbert was same level as him baffled me. No one seems to have as much fun on the field as Cam. Really hoping he can finish this season which would be a nail in the coffin for any of his detractors
