End well, this will not....

What about the feelings of all the NFL DT's...?

Exactly.  Make a comment about Tolbert's weight on TV and it's comedy gold.   

[ItsNotGonnaBeAlright]

if david newton didn't narrate football anecdotes like goddamn winnie the pooh i might be willing to forgive the gaffe, but he's past his game.

let #tubbygate be his downfall.

Why are there so many f**ckin' gates? I'm tired of gates. Let's make this one a moat.

#jerseymoat......wait, that might be a different movement.....

I'd gladly fly bitch between him and SCP to the super bowl. Eat us some all you can eat Ciopinno or grab a poo Ton of dumplings at Yank Sing

Overreaction in my opinion. Didn't call the dude fat. If that's the case, he called all DTs fat everywhere. I understand if it hurt the guys feelings. But it seemed innocent enough. People are too sensitive. Too quick to get offended. Not a big deal.

Unsure how to post tweets here, but Voth threw some pre-game shade at Newton in the Seattle press box. Voth's last 2 tweets before the coin toss (paraphrasing)

1)Seattle press box announcer reads reminder that no alcohol is allowed in press box. Oops

2) especially when you have to sit next to @DNewtonespn RT @BBR well that doesn't seem fair

I LOL'd at that 2 days ago, and seems like it's relevant to DNewton's character

An nationwide overreaction over a comment that will cost someone's job? Not in Murica. 

We flip over the dumbest crap.  Where's the outrage over cable prices or how McDonald's is running out of egg mcmuffians by 4pm??

[LinvilleGorge]

I wish I could say that I was shocked by some of the posts on this thread, but then I have to remind myself that many in our fan base would prefer that we not have a black QB and get outraged when the team tweets/posts anything in Spanish and then it all makes sense again.

This is the real tragedy that's being overlooked.

Like the feelings of the poor offensive linemen that certain heartless people call "Big Uglys"?

I have never understood how some people can be so mean.

[Mother Grabber]

Bwhahaha! It's funny... because he's fat.

[Piff]

Even though the joke wasn't funny and uncalled for, people are way too sensitive.

[juliosantos]

Lol david newtons a piscadeil

This is the kind of thing that guys say to their friends and family all the time.

Saying it to a stranger on social media though? That's takin' a chance. Probably wiser not to do it.

I think newton meant to compare him to jordan gross since he was skinny and the only defensive tackle that newton could name.

I understand that but I just look at it as a lame attempt at a joke. I mean there is no denying that dude is pretty big.
