This may be the worst comparison I've ever seen in my life.

Huge ego- check
Disliked in the locker room- check
major off the field controversy- check
always looking for the camera- check
winner- check

Where anyone gets off saying he struggles to win over a locker room or lead a team is beyond me.

Strikes me as someone having an axe to grind, because you have to be blind to believe that to be the truth.

Favre was pretty well liked in the locker room from most stuff I've read... even stuff like sending dick pics to bimbos just made him more one of the boys

Other than both having big egos I see almost no similarities

I wonder if Cam would be "one of the boys" if he did that.

Right now it's just cool to hate Cam Newton.

members of the media would cover the hell out of the story - and in a negative way

probably most guys in the locker room would not care... they are busy chasing their own interests

Unless you screw the wife or gf of a team-mate I don't think too many players worry about your sex life

This board flipped their lid because the kid got tickets in Florida. Said it made him a bad person.

Just trying to keep it in perspective.

Dude. You forgot, arrested for a felony, too. And the subsequent admission to police as he was hauled away handcuffed.

The story snowballed but it never would have been a story if his Dad hadn't tried to extract money for his recruitment

99 to 1 Cam knew about the whole thing but I doubt it will be proven... and I doubt that will be proven that Auburn paid him either

Yeah, that's it. That's the only reason people think Cam is a bad person.
