He said that Cam gets blowback because he behaves in a fashion that's far outside the norm for a QB
Agreed, and here is where Cam's point somewhat comes into play. Who are we used to in comparison at QB as far as actions? Who do they compare to when talking about Cam's actions. Its funny thats its Panthers Vs Broncos in the SB.

You used Gronk for an example, but he doesn't behave any differently than a myriad of other players both black and white.
I used Gronk as an example because he is celebrated for his similar actions and ego. Really only chastising he gets is because of the team he plays on.

I'm old school (and old). I don't like the look at me stuff no matter who does it.
My thing is. People love to hate on cam for having fun. I think people forget what sports started out as. Are we supposed to teach our children to treat the game as a business as well?

I completely understand what you're saying. I fully admit Cam's messed up my simple view of things.
Of course, there's CamBack. I hate him.
He came back to AU to finish his degree. I love him.
He does the 'look at me'. I hate him.
He goes out of his way to help kids when the cameras aren't on. I love him.
I wish he'd make up his mind and either be a tPOS or sprout a halo and wings.....
