End well, this will not....

Calling out a persons weight male or female is one of the lowest insults in the book.  Smh.  Even when angry i dont stoop to that level....cuts ddeeper than you realize.

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.

I bet you knock it out of the park every time you make a joke.   Maybe the outrage should be that this guy should take better care of himself.  If he had a pack of cigarettes in his hand and a joke was made about that everyone would applaud.

I would not shed one tear if this caused Newton his job which probably wont..he just seems so critical of the Panthers to be our so called Beat writer..

He acts like he pulled the short straw and has to write for the Panthers..he just irks me..

[JawnyBlaze]

Looks like we're getting a new Panthers blogger at ESPN.  and LOLOLOLOLOL at Pat Y was better.  As bad as Newton can be, at his worst he's still better than Pat Y at his best.

It's a jerk move to make fun of someone's weight. It's a colossal jerk move to make fun of someone's weight in front of a national audience when all that person did was pose for a picture you asked for.

Excatly.  I undstand in the PC world people are way to sensitive but IMO this is just being a shitty person to call someone out like that in such a way that everyone can see it.

Mr Scot was joking about himself, since he proudly calls our line big uglies.

As far as this thread is concerned, I agree that this was douche of the year award level.  Very low class.

David Newton looks like the product of an SS biological experiment gone wrong...

And he's going to be critical of someone else's appearance?

And will continue to do so, as long as I know they can't find me.

[Darth Biscuit]

I saw the tweet Sunday and didn't really think anything of it but I can see how the guy would be offended.  Lots of replies to the tweet and Newton hasn't taken it down or even replied to the replies so....  I guess he doesn't see it as a big deal.

 

Either way he's a shitty reporter...

Shout out to @Roaring_Riot for getting them 2 free memberships.

I'm really hoping the Panthers or ESPN act on this or release a statement. It can't go unnoticed anymore.

That's very commendable.  Good on you, RR!

lol let's start a gofundme page for their plight, them being fat and whatnot

[Growl]

It's really not at the level you guys are making it out to be.  Lame, but piling on him about his job just because you didn't like him previously is over the top.
