I felt the same way about Derrick Henry. I wanted to hate him, but he's a humble hardworking man and I respect that in today's world.

Every single poster on this site would more than likely Love Fournette if they actually spent a day or two with him. The guy is nothing but absolute class and shows nothing but respect for other teams and coaches. I'm definitely not the type to just automatically hate an athlete just because he is on another team. There has been many Alabama players I have liked as a player and person

I think a lot of the Cam hate is because he's a black QB that would rather have fun than reassure whitey that he isn't a threat.


Yes, that's the most logical answer.

What would you say is a more logical answer than racism for why white southerners don't like a pro black QB?

Cam has moved on and so should you. I agree with everything you said about Fournette. He's a good kid with a good head on his shoulders.

This. Chubb as well. He, LF, and Henry have all given each other props on Twitter and I've never seen anything but class from the 3 of them

His arrogance. His TD celebration compares him to superman and he named his son chosen.

I lost all respect for Cam when he didn't jump on that fumble in the Super Bowl.

How can you hate LF7?

Especially Bama fans considering Bama has shut him down.

Well if your DB wouldn't have tried to tackle him by his face mask then maybe that wouldn't have happened.

Uh huh. How do you feel about Larry Bird, Joe Namath, Michael Jordan,

Shaq, Dwight Howard, John Cena, Jimmie Johnson (NASCAR)?

I'm sorry, is that not white enough for you?

There could be any number of reasons why he didn't jump on that ball. Maybe he saw that he wouldn't get it and was hoping for it to squirt out. It's easy to second guess someone's actions in the biggest game of their career when they have a split second to make a decision.

Besides, you say you hate him because of his arrogance (which is hardly unique in a top-level pro athlete), his comparison to Superman (again, hardly unique), and because of the name he chose to give his child (which is the craziest fricking reason to hate someone in the history of anyone hating anyone ever, unless he named his kid "SoloCamIsARacist"), so did you dislike him and respect him before a split-second decision in the Super Bowl lost your respect?

You crazy old racist. I see you. I see you.

What Fournette did for SC during the floods will always be remembered fondly among Gamecock fans.

He is a class act.

You're just in time...I think there are "others" (wink wink) out there who need to know what other players/people they can/cannot like so that they don't feel all racisty.

I'm assuming you like all white players though...?

People who aren't racist don't feel all racisty. I didn't say that everyone who dislikes Cam Newton is racist. Some of them (like the ones who still hate him because he went to Auburn) are silly. But to hate the guy because of what he named his child is batshit.

I don't know very many, but I certainly don't hate any of them I don't know. I hate James Harden's game, because it makes the NBA completely unwatchable.

I like many black pro QBs like Russell Wilson, and RG3 bc they work hard and stay humble. But then u have QBs like Cam and Winston who don't know when to be quiet, and when someone else shuts them up, they don't know how to act. And if u want to say I dislike Cam bc he's from Auburn, ur 100% wrong. I like Bo Jackson and also I had two guys from my high school go on to play for Auburn and then went to play for the NFL and I'm fans of them. Oh yeah, they're all black too. I can't stand when someone has a problem with the way someone acts and then they all want to bring race into it. That's exactly what's wrong with our country today. And the funny thing is, no one will say this stuff face to face. It's easy to do it over a site like this tho.
