So your calling Cam unintelligent? And a coward?

Glad he is standing up for what he believes and glad he is on our team but the dude came out of that press conference sounding a little racist your not going to demolish racism until you quit with the division we are one people Americans, where he can can play a game for a living and make millions which is generational wealth for his family. What these guys make in a year is more money than we will see in a lifetime. Do things need to change sure it does it’s going to take unity is all Iam saying.

so was there anything football info in here or did those vultures in the media just look for a headline about off field? 

 

Yeah there were tons of football questions. Lots of questions about charity and some protest questions. Don't blame the media for the choice of conversation on the huddle.

Im just excited and interesting to see how he plays as a Panther. Our media blows. Like what has he been up to football wise? What does he think of the players.. what did he think of the team when he played vs us? What type of play does he like to do? What does he think about the division, playoffs? health?

Sounds like you have a problem with capitalism which is fair but that doesn't mean racism isn't a problem that needs to be talked about. Also that generational wealth in America typically isn't a benefit for AA, he is one of the few exceptions to the rule. Might not want to pick on the exception.

He actually did answer about the team.

He said it reminds him of his rookie year in SF with all the great players.  Compared the D of Willis, Bowman, Justin Smith, Aldon Smith to now with Luke and Pep, KK.

Cam's not a great public speaker.. That has nothing to do with his actual intelligent.. And yes he was a coward for that backstroke he did.. So is MJ for all the years he cares more about his image than his community..

You have far less right to think your point is valid and his/theirs isn't.

Question for you: is "far less right" a right?  Kinda makes the whole free speech thingy subjective, doesn't it?  Or are you its arbiter-in-chief?

This

 

I have those tweets and the whole presser in the Monday updates thread 

 

 

I will say this.  The guy just wants to play sonee dam football.

Watching that interview.  You could tell after the 2nd or 3rd non football related question he seemed frustratedish

But the questions that came up football related as far as scheme, this team, Donte Jackson, Adams, etc.  He lit up

I thought that they did not cover that so why was the majority of his quotes on every post about his press conference surrounded by the Anthem. I know this is important but its not new news. Unfortunately I did not have time to look at the press conference im just going by what quotes everyone posted of the conference.

stop

 

With the signing of Reid we are going to have to learn how to talk to each other.  I edited "coon" out of sub-zero's "coon backstroke" comment because many find that word objectionable.  Using the phrase "Uncle Tom" is clearly designed to bait him into a response.  

We can have political discussion AND football discussion if we learn how to speak to each other.
