Who cares how he dresses? That's your lamest point. There are a lot of professional athletes who dressing style is questionable. You can't tell people how to dress.

Ok. Remove the last item. What about the other items?

Nothing personal, just seems like we have a Wilson appreciation thread every week.

And a newbie is suppose to know this, how?

And I can't talk about anything that's been talked about before, so what...can...I talk aout here? I 'm a bit of an historian, so can I talk history, I bet that won't work, right? I'm was a track guy, so how about speed ih football?

Just tell me what I can talk about and I will.

Relax, I see it from your point of view. I have nothing against you. Welcome to the Hoop, good to have you.

Wow, his reputation manager really scrubbed that one. I used to be able to find this link on the first page in a google search. He did an interview where he was against gay marriage, said a few other things (I think nwith some church organization in Seattle)...and then (after a meeting with his PR guy surely) he promptly backtracked and has since said only PC things on the issue, without coming out and supporting it.

So it happened yet no Seahawk fans ever heard of it and his "reputation manager" was able to delete it from the Internet? He has done many interviews with various religious folks. They are all on the Internet. Except for that ONE interview where he made a bunch of homomphobic comments. Odd how the media completely ignored it. That really isn't like them. Maybe his "reputation manager" bought them off?

Anyways, the dude is a tool to me. I don't buy his celibacy act, or his "miracle water" healing properties BS. I think he's a smart guy that is committed to a very PC brand, which is fine. I think he's a fine guy for kids to look up to. But since we are adults here...he doesn't quite make my "most impressive people" list. If he makes yours...so be it.

To each their own. I'm sure you love Tyrann Mathieu.

I get it, I never said there was anything wrong with him. Just don't think we need a weekly thread on him.

I wouldn't start a thread about him but personally if I find a subject I'm not interested I simply don't click the link.

Did you ever read one post that he ever broke Panthers dress code? If you can provide an article about him breaking any dress code for the Carolina Panthers you need to shut the fuck up. I have not heard anything about Newton ever breaking any dress code.

I never said Cam broke the dress code. I said he dresses like a child. Just because Cam can dress like a child doesn't mean he has to. Just because one can say ignorant comments like Cam has doesn't mean they should. Are you starting to smell what the rock is cooking here?

Dressing adequately instead of like a hoodlum tells a lot about a person. It shows they're a consummate professional. You should attempt to dress the best and play like the best. One's clothing choices say a lot about a person's personality, confidence, demeanor , etc.

Lastly, calm down there is no need to get angry or say STFU when I have used no ad hominems or anything of that nature to warrant this kind of suggestion.

Cam dresses far from a hoodlum. I see hoodlum daily on the train on my way to work. He dresses nothing like a hoodlum would.

Bringing up his college stuff is pointless. Manning went his entire career without his college crap being brought up. Why bring up Cam college mistakes when he was a 19 year old kid? I already explained how I feel about his actions on the field

So you understand why other people don't like him?

WHAT?? It's called a dress code. It's utilized in many professional businesses including sports. Have you been living under a rock or have you never worked before?


Watch an NHL team walk into an arena. Looks like an ad for GQ.

Watch an NFL team saunter in and you never know what you're going to get.

Yeah Cam does not know how to conduct himself out in the world. Cam had one slip up after losing the biggest game of his life ( Most people already stop caring about that) and he's all of sudden some bad guy

McManus: Cam Newton's passion for helping kids is real

Cam Newton wins prestigious award a day after fan calls him 'classless'
He's been a punk ass more than just the "once" after the SB loss.

But yeah, there's no doubt he does some great humanitarian stuff in the other 99.9% of his life.

Hockey has to do something to get out of the #4 slot.

Anyways, there are numerous other indicators (which you decided not to address) that show he has much more maturing to do and that's ok as long as he accepts it eventually and quits playing the race or the victim card, take responsibility for his actions and man up.

It only take .01% to show that a person is an ass.

I agree he does have some maturing to do. I do think if they make it again and lose that he would handle this much differently. Also think if he fumbles down 6 with 4 to go that he would attempt to get the ball.

BTW did you guys hear that Miller admitted he intentionally batted the fumble which should have been a penalty?
