He is correct: I don't think I've ever seen a QB that finds it necessary to make a huge deal out of every first down scramble, or stage an elaborate dance after every touchdown.

Thats part of the game/entertainment and for the price of tickets somebody better be dancing. If you dont like it turn to golf dickhead

Notice how I said "quarterback".

No one gives a shite if wide receivers or running backs do that nonsense.

As I said--he does it for EVERY single time he makes a first down or touchdown.

I have never heard a white QB refer to himself as a White QB, but yet Cam needs to remind everyone that he is an African-American QB. Their have been some pretty damn good African-American QB's in this league. No maybe none that could do what he can and I can only think of one maybe on the tip of my tongue would be Cunningham. News flash Cam, no one has really been scared of you up until maybe this year because you have been way to inconstant. This is the side of him that I just can't get past and never will!!

It's all good. Intent is really hard to grasp in person sometimes. It's 100 times harder when you're dealing with just text.

Like I said earlier, I'm old. I don't like "look at me" celebrations no matter who's doing them, but I also fully understand that you can't define a person because they do one thing (that's not illegal, immoral, or otherwise clearly wrong) that you don't like.

It's 15 pages of Auburn fans turning into SJWs in defense of a guy who played a single season for them.

God certainly blessed Cam with athletic ability and it is impressive. It is also impressive that he has come this far without the blessings of intelligence, class, honesty, and humility.
Someone will bring him down a peg or two one day. Those who act the way he does do not earn respect, only disgust and his show of doing something for kids doesn't make up for the rest of his bad behavior.

Yes, yes actions like charitable works and such are on par with dancing in the endzone after a TD.

God some people need to get grasp on life

Warren Moon
Doug Williams
Mike Vick
Steve McNair
Randall Cunningham
Donovan McNabb
Russel Wilson
Daunte Culpepper

... All had or are having pretty solid NFL careers. I'm sure there are more. African-American QB's are no longer a novelty in this league. They no longer have a stigma to break. All that ground was broken a long time ago. Black QB's don't scare anyone.

Cam is more than a great athlete. He's a great QB. But he's a long way from being groundbreaking when it comes to race. My only issue with him is that he even saw the need to bring race into the discussion. His race is irrelevant and he chose to make an issue of it, not someone else.

Never used the word "sin." That came from within your own small mind.
