Most definitely yes, in Obama's America.

The whole basis, in my eyes, as to why black people feel that the hate towards Cam comes from two places:

1.) All the racist, hate filled tweets to the Panthers
2.) People coming down on Cam for dabing and not having a problem with Aaron Rodgers doing the double check.

Now people trash him for not talking to media. But a lot didn't know he was hearing a Broncos player talking shite while he was trying to do an interview. Hell let Bill Belichick, Greg Popovich give short answers and act immature towards the media after a loss..... it's ok. It's the medias fault for asking them dumb questions. Let a man lose a super bowl, then hear an opponent talking shite while he's giving an interview, Cam give short answers, then people say he's immature, needs to grow up, acts like a spoiled kid, etc. Media asked Cam dumb questions too.

Those complaints are valid, but those twitter folks are best ignored, IMO.

Shred of truth to this, but people had problems with Manziel doing his money sign thing, too. That falls more in the realm of stodgy sports fans who get irate over bat flips and touchdown celebrations and hate seeing pro athletes have a good time in general.

Go check Pop's answers to the media after losing the 2013 Finals in probably the most painful fashion imaginable.

I thought about that as well. Like I said though I'm just pointing out why some blacks feel that it is racism. Some whites don't like him because they are racists, but that isn't the case across the board. Hell some black people don't like him for whatever reason.

Yeah, some pretty vicious ones, too.

But, I mean, it's the internet. Someone's always going to be acting a plumb fool, especially if they feel they can get away with it under the guise of anonymity.

Best thing to do (for Cam and anyone, really), is to ignore the peanut gallery as opposed to acknowledging them and (in their eyes) validating their input.

JMHO, tho.

Dude, it was some very nasty, ugly stuff too. You should have seen some of the stuff that went out in social media after the game. I saw this one post of a Hispanic chick calling one of the players from Denver a chimp and that he should go back where he came from. Wow.

FWIW, my dad is not a fan of Cam's at all.

But that's mainly because he's a hardcore Cowboys fan and Cam ruined Thanksgiving for us

Cam is a big pussy with a shitty personality - the kind of guy Auburn loves.

Georgia fans love true heroes who are also wonderful people like Todd Gurley.

It's about class vs trash.
