I didn't like him after he acted like a jackass during the SEC championship game. And I didn't think he'd be able to make the jump to the NFL.

But he's been a pretty class act in the NFL and he proved a lot of doubters wrong. He was able to develop his passing skills to be one of the best QBs in the game.

I've got no issues with him.

I don't hate him. I just wouldn't turn my back on him. He seems incredibly fake. He'd probably give you the reach-around, but squeeze entirely too hard and smile while pretending it was an accident.

When was he convicted of receiving the payout? His dad requested money from Mississippi st and he went elsewhere....

I don't hate Cam...he led my fantasy team to a championship this year...without his 50-point game in the semis, I'd have been toast...

I like Cam.

But I can't like him for the next 2 weeks.

Cause he showboats a lot and backs it up on the field. Plus he's black so that's not helping his cause either ijs.....

The greatest measure of a man is his character and integrity. Those most important things are still in doubt with Cam Newton. My gut instincts are that he did some unforgivable things for which he will pay the price of never gaining the title "Beloved".

Are you still rustled about the college game? The 180k?
Do Auburn fans ever sit back and think? The SEC has had how many guys come through and dominate recently...? Do they all get shite on like Cam? The fact that y'all can't understand why he gets hated on by some...is one of the reasons why the guy gets hated on.

Cam winning a championship in 2010 is used more to make fun of y'all than it is by fans who are legit upset that Auburn won. Who questions his greatness? Y'all sound more like Arkansas and Tennessee fans by the day.

Yea stealing a laptop when he was young and immature will put an asterisks next to his name. Being kicked out of school and being punished still doesn't erase anything.

I would like him a lot more if people, like you, would post this on the appropriate board. The man plays in the NFL not in the SEC.

Most people probably find it kind of arrogant on the part of Cam (and Auburn University) to cheat and then smile about it later?

Probably because Auburn fans use this term for him. I'm sure he's the GOAT auburn player, but he has a long way to go in the NFL to be a GOAT at anything.



Nonsense...you must be 12. Two word: BO JACKSON.

The only problem I have with him is stealing the sign from the Packers fan. Total dick move. Everything else- the celebrations, dancing, etc. only brings sour grapes because the people complaining about it have no way to stop it from happening. And Bama fans that are not over the Cam-back...if the 3 national titles since 2010 did not get you over it...you never will be over it.

A bammer saying they hate any player because of their criminal activities or because they were being paid is kind of like Bill Clinton saying he hates other men who cheat on their wife

I think Cam's picture is in the dictionary next to the word "smarmy".
