A guy who's unorthodoxy some don't appreciate.
As long as the referees hate Cam Newton being himself on the field, they are going to keep making life difficult for him over him showing any emotions other than smiling or greeting fans and shit like that. He's been in the league long enough to be left alone now, he's already done things no other quarterback has done, and he's not done yet.
He sometimes brought bad publicity with reporters, so people at some point were going to find out he wasn't a superhero and he wasn't perfect, he was just a guy. He hasn't had a whole lot of room to be a regular guy because of the superhero nicknames and image.
Some of what Cam Newton said and did was as questionable as what anybody else says and does. He didn't really ever claim to be perfect, somewhere he got the superhero image and it stuck.
Carolina should have been more patient with Cam Newton even when the going got tough. There's no good reason he wouldn't have still been somebody the team could depend on, whether he was starting or not.
When people have enough money, they feel like their bank account proves they can overlook guys like Cam Newton. He's not the only talented quarterback in the league, but there's only a few per generation.
He's going to be the guy that plays on 8 teams in 5 years now, for no good reason.
Cam Newton has to go out and buy a home in 5 different cities now to prepare for the next few years.
Cam Newton thinks he is over the hill because of his profession, but he's too young for retirement. His best years don't look like they're ahead of him, but he won't know if he retires, and if football is what he loves to do for a living, why would he?
Cam Newton seems to lose focus and determination more than he did in his 20's, at times he doesn't seem like the same guy he was even though he is.
IF CAM NEWTON GONNA PROPOSE HOMIE I'LL TAKE THE JEWELZ
Me, Kelsey, over Cam Newton. He be like damn yeah I'm ready to get squirted on.
If theres a good thing that came out of Cam Newton's departure from Carolina, it is that Carolina wasnt quick to trade Cam for a white quarterback. It's a good thing for where the league is headed that quarterback and leadership opportunities have opened up, that the captain doesnt have to look, think, or act a certain way. There is such a thing as people who didn't and still don't respect Peyton Manning, so whether or not people respect you doesnt determine who you are or what you do in life, even if it has an effect on you.
There havent been a lot of guys doing what Cam Newton is doing now, theres also teammates, opponents, fans, coaches, and the media he's had to try and get recognition and respect for what he's doing, and has the potential to do. It's not an easy road even if you make a lot of money, but it does still come with choices. Theres a world filled with criticism, it's going to be there anyway.
