    It's just funny watching the wheels fall off so early...

    The wheels are most certainly still on, would you be interested in some kind of bet?

    Well you keep going on about how awful the Patriots are. Why not a wager? How far do you think they'll get this season?

    I work in the local media in Charlotte, NC, know the woman he was referring to, and work with lots of women sports reporters. It's honestly one of the cringiest things I've ever heard him say, and that takes a lot of doing.

    Cam Newton is one guy I have absolutely no clue what to say about. Sometimes he comes across as a decent bloke, sometimes he plays lights out, then he shows up in cringeworthy outfits and comes up with childish antics or statements.

    is he just an arrogant fellow with no taste or a bit of a lunatic or a good boy with bad moments?

    Actually watching the video he comes across as a right * when he says it, as if he's cringing. I mean it's a fact, you don't hear women talking about routes. But he said it like she doesn't know what she's talking about.

    In this day and age you won't get away with making a comment like that. The media will be all over him now. The NFL is a testosterone filled, alpha male world though. A league full of big, strong, athletic, guys, many from rough backgrounds. It really shouldn't surprise anyone if within NFL locker rooms there are lots of players who would secretly relate to what Cam said.

    Considering the number of women involved in covering the NFL these days, his comment seemed a bit dumb. And you can tell by the way he said it that he really meant it, it wasn't a joke. But worse things happen at sea. He just made himself look like a bit of a jackass. No big deal, move on.

    Basically what Mark said, I dont think he is a horrible sexist for what he said, just ignorant. He's also proved (again) that he is just a reallllllly stupid guy. He's been in the limelight for a long time now, he should know not to say anything like that at any time, nevermind in his own press conference.

    So yeah, Newton - bad guy? Maybe. Stupid - definitely.

    So the Pats defense showed up last night, the OL sadly didn't. Less said about the Bucs kicker the better. Ugly Thursday win but that's all that matters on a Thursday.
