Family drama (Cam and Smitty)

[csx]

Cam would not say that with TD in the room.

I think Cam is a good soul whi gets a little carried away especially as he's become one who needs to constantly publish takes on everything with his podcast or whatever it's called.

Yikes

Yes, Newton was a great teammate, or at least he became one. There were definitely some stories from his rookie season that were somewhat less than complimentary. And based on what Charles Johnson says, it sounds like there are more yet to be told.

On the mic though, Newton was always that friend who made you cringe when he started talking. Lots of us have had friends and acquaintances that we knew meant well but for whom we often had to apologize and/or clarify what they meant. Unfortunately, that's Cam.

When he started making his journey toward becoming a talking head, It would be one that had its fair share of bumps in the road. Looks like we've hit one

And yes, Smith can certainly be one to shoot his mouth off as well, but it doesn't exactly sound like he's alone in his viewpoint here.

I think Cam needs to walk some of that back. But I have no doubt that he wasn't talking about the core guys on that team. That 2010 team had a lot of the pieces that went 12-4 form 2008. That 08 squad was one of the most complete rosters we've ever fielded outside of Jake Delhomme, he was the weak link.

Cam can feel disrespected by the organization but he's shitting on a bunch of incredible players with these comments. It just feels like it's for attention...

Yep. Cam is going to morph more and more into the Stephen A model now that he's on ESPN. 

He's honestly ESPN's wet dream. Charismatic...and a history of not thinking before he speaks at times.

Is this one of them cases where Cam's comments are taken out of context, or he just goofed up again with his words.

No, he feels superior to everyone else

[Panthering]

I'd have to imagine Cam was a lot to put up with day in and day out, so hearing this publicly is going to be annoying.

[PantherFanInPhilly]

Cam has done himself no favors lately with the stupid ish he says into a microphone. Seems like every few weeks he makes news for saying something really dumb. I hate to see it because I've always taken up for him but I'm not a fan of "Click Bait Cam" that has developed recently. Yeah yeah yeah..I know..."you sound like a hater"..."you're old"..."Cam is rich and you're poor"..."Cam was taken out of context"..." blah blah blah. 

[Day1PanthersFan]

Cam proving his Haters right

I am no longer going to defend him 

Jake Delhomme is the greatest Panthers QB of all time, he would risk injury for the team , and he wouldn't call them losers(and he played better in the superbowl than Scam)

The 2011 team had talent but they were a locker room of losers. They literally were coming off a lame duck HC year that was horrendous even for a team that ended up earning a #1 pick. The core was a great but there was lots of waste on the team too to combine with terrible rookies other than Cam. It took Ron some time to rah rah the team up into what it became. Hurney running the team poorly without help from a HC in 2010 was a big part of that and he was fired the year after in October of 2012 and riverboat didn't show up until 2013. Ohh and 2011 and 2012 were 6 and 7 win seasons so they were literally losers too lol. So much so that Ron was almost fired before he went riverboat in 2013.

Meh, if they want to fight then whatever. The team still stinks and is in it's longest losing season streak ever. They were coworkers and nothing more with 2 personalities that are like oil and water.

 

[SOJA]

Here's how I view it. Cam made a comment that was insensitive (this is pretty norm for him) but I don't think he meant it like "Oh all the Panthers are trash" he was just saying that by virtue of being the number one pick you are going to a stastically bad team

Steve took it personally because well....it's steve for god's sakes

Cam should just apologize and Steve and him can make up
